Earlier, on the morning of August 6, Hang went to the local police station to surrender and report the murder of her own child. Upon receiving the information, the police went to a motel on 6A Street, Binh Tri Dong B Ward, Binh Tan District, and discovered the body of a 3-year-old child in a wardrobe.
Because of difficult family circumstances and no money to treat her child, Hang became depressed.
Thinking of suicide, at noon on August 5, Hang took her child to rent a room at a motel on 6A Street, Binh Tri Dong B Ward. There, Hang used a phone charger cord to strangle her child until the child lay motionless.
Knowing that her child was dead, Hang hid the child's body in the closet in the motel room.
On the morning of August 6, Hang went to Tau Hu canal to commit suicide but did not dare to jump. Next, Hang went to the Saigon bridge area and a high-rise apartment building in Trung Son residential area, Binh Chanh district to continue her suicide attempt but also failed.
That same morning, Hang went to the police station to confess and confessed to killing her own child.
