Chef Brother Caught With Missing Sister’s DNA Inside His Rice Cooker
[Music]. bada beinging badao Lucy felt like she. got lucky with her husband he's 10 years. older than her and that was initially a. concern for her she's got to be. pragmatic about it right but it also has. its advantages usually with age comes. maturity patience and the ability to. provide and she's 27 he's 37 so it's not. like this alarming age Gap where she's. freshly 18 and he was caring he's. reliable and she was just so excited to. start the this new phase of her life.
with him she was going to move from her. hometown in mainland China to Taiwan. make new friends maybe start a family. with this man the possibilities were. endless and she admits you know a large. part of why she married this guy it has. a lot more to do with settling down. instead of instead of love but she could. learn to love him that's what she felt. like it was a little isolating to be. without her friends in Taiwan but she. could call them and she did every single. night she would call them and tell them.
everything that her sweet husband did. for her that day which by the way this. is crazy but he never wanted her to be. in the kitchen all of her friends are. like that is insane I'm so jealous of. you most of our husbands super. traditional they want me to cook three. meals a day and your husband constantly. cooking for you breakfast lunch and. dinner you're never in the kitchen yeah. well he's a chef so I guess it kind of. makes sense that he would want to spend. time in his own kitchen right he would. however get a little Snappy at her when.
she disturbed his piece in there that's. kind of enduring you know he's just very. passionate when he's cooking he doesn't. want anyone to mess with this flow so. for the first few weeks Lucy was in. marital bliss But as time went on she. starts having these really odd. suspicions her husband didn't just get. Snappy when she tried to help him cook. in the kitchen even if she walked into. the kitchen for a glass of water he. would be lounging in the living room. jumping up off the sofa to get the water. for her.
it's one thing to not want someone. messing up your process or your work but. it's another thing to just not want your. wife in a whole room of the house like. such an important room of the house even. if she's not moving things around or. touching anything but maybe she's been. spending too much time alone without her. friends she's thinking maybe I'm. overthinking things maybe he's just. trying to be nice but one day while he. was at work curiosity gets the best of. Lucy and she decides this is so silly so.
silly I'm just going to go in there and. make myself something to eat and he if. he's going to get upset about that then. he's a horrible husband what does he. want me to do starve to death she walks. over to the kitchen opens up the freezer. door maybe there were some frozen. dumplings she could steam but instead. she makes eye. contact inside the freezer was a woman's. Frozen. head she had long hair her eyes were.
wide open and staring at. Lucy Lucy slammed the freezer door shut. she ran back into the room and she's. like I got to leave now right but no she. can't he knows where her family lives he. knows everything about her he would know. that she saw the head and left I mean. this man would probably track her down. to keep her quiet the only other option. is divorce but how she doesn't have a. single person in the area that she knows. and she's terrified of this guy even. going to the cops what if he hides the.
head somehow Lucy decides the only way. to survive in the long run is to wait a. few weeks before making up some lie that. her grandma passed away and she would. have to go to her family she'd have to. go back home to Mainland China for the. funeral of course and then she could. tell her parents everything that she saw. everything that happened and then they. would help her figure a way out of this. but that meant for the next few weeks. she would have to pretend like nothing. was wrong she would have to control the. fear in her her voice her facial.
expressions she would have to not flinch. whenever he got close to her whenever he. walked into the kitchen she would have. to not look. suspicious if he suspected that she knew. about the head what would he even do to. her she had to play this right she would. have to sit down at the table smiling. happy in love and get excited over these. new dishes that he's cooking and try not. to gag. wondering where is the rest of that. woman's body.
[Music]. as always full show notes are Avil by. rotten mangle podcast.com we had our. Mandarin speaking researchers assist on. this case so we could gather all the.
facts and details that were out there. hopefully this will be a comprehensive. deep dive on the case but as always with. foreign cases please let us know in the. comments if there was anything we missed. anything Lost in Translation or any just. extra details that you know about this. one and with that being said let's get. started if you have plans to go on a. cruise or maybe like a like a Long Boat. Ride some people might recommend that. you pray to the goddess Mazu do you know. the goddess Mazu Mazu yes no okay well.
her name translates to Eternal mother. does it not oh okay and uh many believe. she's the Goddess that watches over the. seas so for Generations seamen would go. fishing off the coast of Taiwan only to. come back to land and their eyes would. be wide like this is how goddess Mazu. started her story her their hair would. be soaking wet and they would tell the. craziest stories of like oh my God our. boat almost capsized it almost flipped. over but then this w woman came down.
from the sky and this red robe she said. her name was Mazu and she saved us she. saved us this is like hundreds of years. ago so unlike other goddesses fishermen. Sailors anyone who claims to have been. saved by goddess Mau they said that she. never asked for anything in return she's. just this powerful benevolent. compassionate giving goddess and. eventually people didn't just worship. the goddess Mazu when they went into. open Waters but even on land was kind of.
the Goddess of Life in Taiwan she will. protect you no matter what and in New. taipe City there's even a temple named. after her it was built 250 years ago. okay which is technically crazy because. that's around the same age as. America yeah so there's this temple. built it's very very old it's the shenu. Mazu Temple and it's really interesting. because there's actually a lot of. temples in this area this one was built. 250 years AO ago and it's actually.
pretty modest in size so it's not one of. these crazy olden day ancient buildings. that's so massive and so Grand it's like. a tiny little Temple but it's almost. always jam-packed with tourists and. locals some people will even say I came. from America I came from all around the. world just to be at this Temple the. locals said this was one of the more. favorable temples that you could pray at. basically a lot of your prayers may come. true here at this very Temple some. people said they could feel it the. moment that they walked in there was.
this energy shift according to people. who have been there once you walk in. you're hit with this scent of strong. incense and you're in the city but you. suddenly feel this just heavy peace it's. like a weighted blanket you just feel. that peace it feels calm and then you. even forget what time it is you're just. in the moment praying people are. kneeling in front of sacred statues some. people are lighting up new incense. others are rearranging and setting up. flowers and fruit Platters at the altar.
and it just feels like a feels like a. very peaceful time of. reflection but that day it would be. shattered by this earpiercing Screech. like just blood curdling it's the type. of scream that makes you want to kind of. tilt your ear down because it sounds. like nails on a chalkboard and everyone. is whipping their heads around trying to. look for the direction of this scream. because I mean obviously it's not a. natural scream trying to figure out. what's going on the everyone's Frozen in.
the middle of whatever they're doing in. the middle of praying arranging the. fruit everyone is still except this one. woman is running frantically towards the. temple she's like sweating her hair is a. mess her eyes are kind of like bulging. out of her head and everyone's freaked. out what is this woman going through is. this it seems like she's shaking from. what though adrenaline fear psychosis. like why is she coming to the temple she. runs into the temple completely. disregards everybody in there drops to.
her knees in front of the Mazu statue. and she starts blurting out a bunch of. prayers she's stuttering and nothing is. making sense everyone can hear her train. of thought and it's just jumbled like. scrambled eggs it doesn't make sense. it's like she's verbally vomiting she's. sweating she doesn't even look at anyone. around her she doesn't even realize that. she's disturbing the peace everyone's. looking at her like she's crazy no she. just kept praying rubbing her Palms.
together word vomiting shaking sweating. and then. nothing she just stops gets up and. leaves the temple and everyone is like. what is going on it was like she was in. a trance okay she's just walking out one. foot in front of the other until she. ends up in front of a police station. she's now sitting in front of these. police officers vomiting up the same. thoughts and memories it's like the. floodgates had opened and everything is. just spilling out at one once on the. table in front of them the police are.
telling her like Slow Down slow down. okay you're the janitor at the temple H. and you what I went to go clean the. bathrooms they're detached from the. temple maybe like 600 ft away I went to. clean the men's bathroom first and I saw. this plastic bag in there right it's one. of those black grocery store flimsy. plastic bags that you get and clearly. something was in there and it was just. sitting on the back of the toilet so if. you're using the restroom your back. would be to this bag right and she. thought maybe it's takeout that someone. forgot or someone was just too lazy to.
throw their own trash away and left it. for whoever would clean the restroom so. that's what she was going to do she was. just going to trash it but then she was. worried what if someone didn't leave it. what if they accidentally left it and. then there's something valuable in there. and this is a temple we get tourists we. get locals you know what if they come. back looking for it so she starts. opening up the bag there's like a tight. knot on this black plastic bag she's. trying to get it open and the minute. that she undo it she she said it's like.
the most pungent smell she's ever. smelled in her life like someone sprayed. something into her face she never smell. anything like it it was stinking up the. whole bathroom she's waving her hand in. front of her nose squinting her eyes. because it's the type of smelly that you. feel like is going to absorb into your. body so you feel like you need to squin. your eye so it doesn't. penetrate and she's briefly debating. okay maybe I should throw it away in the. trash assuming maybe it's Seafood that's. what she's telling the police like maybe. I thought it was Seafood that had gone.
bad or maybe baby diapers that people. had been just like leaving around it. smelt like it had been marinating for a. while but something in her head just. told her to keep going she keeps untying. the bag she finds more layers maybe it's. curiosity maybe she knew that she would. think about this bag every single night. for the rest of the week when she laid. in bed because she just needed to know. what's in there there's layers upon. layers layers of back bag it's like she.
opens the bag and there's a jacket so. she's like taking out the jacket then. there's a shirt she's taking out the and. then there's plastic wrap she's like. okay what's going. on and then finally a decapitated head. it was covered in. salt it was basically. fermented she cries to the police like I. will never get this look out of my mind. because the amount of salt that was. covering this head. the head was shriveled up like a raisin.
it was completely. dry so she's just letting this out all. on the table I mean probably not. organized like the way I just told you. it's like just coming out all at once. like she was in the temple and the. police are debating for a good minute. maybe this janitor lost her mind I mean. she looks kind of crazy her hair is a. mess her eyes are like bulging out she. she doesn't seem. credible but then right then the phone. rings they're like what what is going on.
a police station about 3 hours away was. calling we have a very strange letter. and it falls under your. jurisdiction so they're like okay yeah. just tell us the letter apparently an. anonymous letter was sent earlier this. morning to that Police Station 3 hours. away they initially thought it was a. prank they didn't get around to it cuz. they're like uh first of all that's 3. hours away we've got nothing to do with. this this feels like a kid wrote it to. scare us so they disregarded it but then. they were thinking you know what maybe. we should just have a different police. station look into it instead of us.
driving 3 hours okay what does it say it. reads hello officer. chenan we'll call her CeCe Cece's corpse. is inside the men's restroom 600 ft away. from a temple in New taipe City please. give her a burial I can't deal with it. thank you a kind-hearted man H wow now. the officers are looking at the janitor. like okay this is really bad like. whatever is going on on is true and it's.
bad so they rush in their patrol cars. turn their lights on the whole nine. yards they start heading to the temple. bathroom they slam open the bathroom. stall door and the smell hits them hard. and the janitor was telling the truth. there was this black plastic bag sitting. on the toilet they opened it up revealed. the first layer another plastic bag so I. guess she had put everything back where. it was then slowly peeled off another. one to find another layer a woven sack. then a jacket a t-shirt a pair of black.
floral shorts and then lastly a female. pair of underwear covered in male bodily. fluids and underneath all seven layers. was a woman's decapitated head covered. in. salt and a little note and the note read. identity equals. chanting whoever left her head wanted. the police to find her corpse not only. that but they wanted want the police to. know who the head belonged.
to but why wouldn't that go against most. criminals best interest yeah maybe this. wasn't even right maybe she wasn't CeCe. maybe this is a red herring but as of. right now that is the strongest lead. that they have and it was time to figure. out who is CeCe who wants her dead and. also where is the rest of Cece's body. the detectives find CeCe well her they. find her apartment they don't find her. and they start questioning her neighbors.
one by and it all started the same all. of them were like CeCe who literally all. of them nobody knew Cece and the police. would show them a picture cuz CeCe has a. missing missing person's poster she's in. the database they show them a picture. she went missing 3 months ago so not. even that long ago come on you guys are. the neighbors and they're like oh my God. yeah I know her but we just called her. little sweetart around here it's like a. little nickname so the police are. assuming well then that must mean you. guys are very close to her because why. would you call your neighbor a little.
sweetheart and all the neighbors are. like no absolutely not we were not close. at all some neighbors stated you know. some of us felt bad for her but she was. just not that fun of a person to be. around there were always these strange. noises that would come out of her unit. sometimes she would run out in her. pajamas stand in the hallway and stare. at anyone that passes by and if you. happen to make eye contact with her she. would start hysterically. laughing it was. weird there were always men coming in. and out of that unit and I think that.
they were assaulting her because she. would run out of her apartment her hair. would be a mess and her clothes look. like someone had been trying to rip them. off and she would scream this man is. trying to assault me and at first as. neighbors we tried to help but it just. kept happening so frequently and. sometimes we didn't even know if we. could believe her she was always drunk. or high some neighbors were a little bit. more sympathetic they said you know we. just all kind of felt bad for her and we. felt bad for her brother he was the one. that always took care of her like no.
matter how bad she got no matter if she. went on a drug bench and even his wife. left him recently because of her they. say it's because she had a family. emergency like her grandma died or. something but we all know that she left. because of all the family drama she. probably couldn't handle the stress. anymore the victim was always going. around accusing people of assaulting her. or saying that she needed to be. assaulted to make. money the brother lives in this. apartment the brother yes they live. together brother brother Cece and.
brother's wife live in this apartment. the wife just left right CeCe is dead. mhm so the officers they do more digging. into Cece's past and it was um yeah it. was just Grim okay so Cece and her. family they were dealt some really. shitty cards CeCe was the fourth of six. siblings which is a huge family I mean. factoring in two parents that's eight. mouths to feed and they weren't doing. well financially and then when CeCe was.
a teenager her father passed away from. excessive drinking and I assume liver. problems so now CeCe's mom was Raising. all six kids by herself thankfully some. of them were grown enough to move out of. the house but still I mean she was a. single mom to a lot of kids and I don't. think that she was necessarily a bad mom. I think CeCe's mom tried she tried her. best given the circumstances but it just. wasn't it wasn't perfect I mean it. wasn't even good so she was working.
non-stop every single day barely had. time to rest she definitely did not have. time to educate her children help them. with homework make sure that they. weren't falling into bad influences like. the kids were basically raising. themselves she did put food on the table. she put a roof over their heads but that. was about it she just didn't have the. capacity to do anything else that was. her priority she's not like a tiger mom. demanding to know what are your grades. like sit down show me your report card. she didn't do any of that. and so a lot of the kids you know the.
teachers would say we don't want to call. it. flaws but they definitely seemed under. supervised we could tell CeCe was. actually called the school flower of her. grade wow yeah so that's the term given. to typically the prettiest girl in the. entire School usually multiple popular. boys would be trying to take her out on. secret dates after school also not only. that but also have good grades yes but. CC was the exception oh really mhm no. good grades yeah and her desk drawer was.
always filled to the brim with snacks. Love Letters From boys who had crushes. on her and she looked like an innocent. girl next door almost like all the. school flowers you know that. stereotypical look she had more soft. rounded features she's very. conventionally pretty growing up okay to. give you context when she was 15 years. old she's walking home from school and. she hears this man behind her excuse me. student excuse me take my business card. I'm a scout for a huge entertainment.
agency and I think that you are exactly. what we're looking for he runs off and. CC throws away his business card she did. not care to be in the entertainment. industry and it's not because she was. too busy studying or she wanted to focus. on graduating high school she straight. up felt like the industry was lame like. she was too cool for it so you know how. high schoolers you know how high. schoolers are and for CeCe it was even. worse because she was hanging out with. these really intense crowds that felt. like school is lame learning is lame all.
of these things are lame they would. smoke drink skip class and do which is. insanely hardcore in Taiwan like even. for adults to do drugs that's crazy for. high schoolers to do drugs. Insanity so to them everything else was. lame and it seemed like CeCe's mom knew. what was going on but like she didn't. know how to stop it it's not like she. had the funds or the time to just sit. there and make sure that CeCe went to. school she would yell at her she because. eventually CeCe would be it escalated to.
the point where she was expelled from. school so her mom is yelling at her but. it's not working CeCe drops out of high. school and she gets married at 18 years. old even her friends were like 18 like. you should wait you have so many guys. that like you you should explore your. options don't tie yourself down so. quickly like why would you do that CeCe. had what they called lovers brain there. was no talking to her about this guy she. was in so deep I mean she felt like this.
guy was the savior of the planet the. whole reason that she was born for this. moment to be his bride like to put it. mildly I mean she was in love with this. man and I'm sure that there's some. trauma there like maybe this is the. first person that made her feel like she. could be herself maybe it's the first. person that loved her I don't know maybe. he was filling some sort of Father. Figure role so they get married very. quickly and then have a child together. CeCe is 18 and so so is he and that's. where the problem the downfall of their.
marriage comes in every abled-bodied. male citizen in Taiwan is required to. serve in the military for I think a. little over a year I think it's like 16. months I think four months of like basic. training and then 12 months of active. duty I don't know how if they categorize. that as a year or 16 months right and. her husband is like okay bye got to go. en list in the Army it's the law good. luck with the kid CeCe gets her life. together while he's gone I don't know if. it's a conscious choice I don't know if. she sat down one day and was like we got. this I got to change or if it just like. happened gradually I'm not sure but.
while her husband is in the Army she's. like the epitome of a try hard single. mom in the best way possible she's. working cleaning the house taking care. of the child any free time she had she. would talk to her friends about how. perfect her husband was she had this. calendar where she counted down all the. days until he was back and her friend. said it's like someone went into her. brain and installed like a love potion. where she can only think about this one.
person and it's her husband every single. day she would get so excited to do the. little red X on another day one day. closer for her husband coming back so a. few weeks are remaining before he's. finally out and CeCe gets a letter in. the mail and she's like skip hopping. back to the apartment to open it up it's. from the love of her life right she's. carefully ripping it open because she's. like saving all of his letters and as. she's reading it her smile is fading. tears are just streaming down her cheeks.
she's gripping the letter Tighter and. her Knuckles are white by the end of it. all she feels is pure rage and anger her. husband wrote to her to say basically. hey thanks for waiting for me and taking. care of our child all alone but once I. get out I'm going to live my life you. know my parents don't think that you're. good enough for me and I don't want. anything to do with you or the baby so. good luck Cece's like okay this has got. to be a joke it's a joke it's a prank. it's maybe one of those things that. people do in the Army like you know how. you have to get initiated into the army.
maybe the other Army Bros made him write. this right and then he's going to come. home in a few it'll be fine it'll be. fine right it wasn't fine she had no. idea how to contact him even when he was. returning when he was out of the army. she had she couldn't track him down he. never came back So eventually she comes. to terms with the fact that okay this is. my new life she drops off her child at a. relative's house she said I can't look. at my kid anymore because looking at my. kid reminds me of my.
husband so she also abandoned the child. yeah she packs her bags moves to a. nearby City she's 22 when this happens. and she fully snaps it was sudden it's. weird one day her friends were. comforting her she's devastated which is. to be expected after such a shitty. breakup right but the next day it's like. the old CC gone her friends noticed that. one day her makeup was just regular CC. makeup very light clean right then it's.
just so heavy like smoky eye intense. pigmented colors all over her face I. mean she's still beautiful that makeup. style is beautiful it was just so sudden. like you know how people chop off all. their hair when they're not feeling. great mentally like every girl dyes. their hair after a breakup that was kind. of the vibe so they're like okay maybe. we should just keep an eye on her but. then it starts getting weirder CeCe. starts wearing her pajamas out and just. mindlessly strolling around the. neighborhood if someone would make eye.
contact with her she would stop walking. just like stop walking stare at them and. tilt her head up to the sky and start. hysterically. laughing so she's going through. something mentally right yeah and it was. kind of creeping people out a lot of. people would cross the street to avoid. walking past her and cce's Friends. believe that this is kind of when she. went mad her only life life goal from. this point on was just to drink and get.
high and it's clear she's trying to. self-medicate with whatever's going on. in her head she's not okay she's not. showering she's not taking care of. herself I mean CeCe's mom is trying to. help by giving her around $250 a month. which doesn't cover the Necessities but. that's all CeCe's mom had left and CeCe. would use it on drinking and smoking no. job would hire her so CeCe starts. engaging in sex work her pricing was $15. to touch her breast $80 for full.
intercourse at least that's how it. started and then eventually when her. addiction got really bad and she was. really desperate some clients said that. her pricing would drop down to $8 for. full. intercourse and the thing that with sex. work okay personally I never judge. anyone that is engaged in sex work and I. know right now we're in the process of. everyone trying to destigmatize sex work. which I think is great but one reality. that just cannot be avoided is when. you're engaging in this type of work.
personto person it's very dangerous like. any personto person job is. dangerous CCE would often bring home. clients because she couldn't afford a. second location and they didn't want to. pay for hotels or if they did they're. like okay then I'm going to deduct it. from what I'm paying you so she would. bring these clients home and often times. they would just brutally assault her and. leave without paying and now that she's. acquiring more trauma she needs more. alcohol more to kind of calm that pain.
down and all the neighbors knew they. knew what was going on these clients. didn't even try to hide it I mean they. would just hear terrified screams coming. out of that apartment banging yelling. threatening and then a door would slam. shut and then someone's stomping away. and then the door opens again and cce's. running demanding to be. paid originally in the beginning some. neighbors felt so bad for her that they. even gave her money here and there but. they felt frustrated because things. would never changed you know Cece would.
keep bringing people home and they would. keep assaulting her and it it just the. neighbors felt like we're not doing so. great either you know which brings the. investigators to think okay what if this. is some deranged client I mean this. wouldn't be the first time right look at. everything that happens in the US serial. killers targeting sex workers because. they're easy targets they go unnoticed. and they have confirmation that CC's. clients weren't the best law-abiding. group of civilians out there what if. some sick twisted deranged client had.
this fantasy that would involve taking. cce's life so they're like let's run the. DNA the investigators run the male fluid. DNA that was found on CC's undergarments. that were wrapped around her head they. also had CCT TV footage of a man walking. towards the temple bathroom with a. plastic bag in their hand which I know. what you're thinking okay that's the. easiest way to ID them right but the guy. is completely covered up I mean in the. video it it just wasn't that useful at. least right now like to look at that. video and then look at all the men. nearby it didn't it's not going to work.
so the DNA is really everything that. they had they run it now there's a. strong possibility that it's not going. to match to anyone in the system that. person's not in the system yet but it. comes back with a hit a local taxi. driver the police have so many questions. for this guy there had been evidence. that Cece's head had been frozen before. being covered in salt did he try to. pickle her what was the point in. preserving her head to not draw.
suspicion on odor but then why leave. Anonymous notes at a police station 3. hours away and then what about the note. in the bag that pointed to the victim's. identity was the taxi driver just purely. unhinged like or is there some sort of. long game that they're. playing the taxi driver did not answer. any of these questions because he's like. I don't even I didn't even know Cece was. dead he's explaining like like you got. to believe me I only slept with her a. few times I was a client like you can.
arrest me for that if that's what you. want to do but I didn't murder her and. that's not me on the CCTV footage. because that night I have proof I have. witnesses I was nowhere near that Temple. when the bag was placed in the bathroom. I was working the police checked his. Alibi and it cleared the taxi driver is. not the. killer so then who the hell is the. killer it all comes back down to a. fortune teller the investigators are. sitting at their desk trying to figure. out what the hell is wrong here it.
doesn't make sense someone killed Cece. and we've got a ton of neighbors that. know every little thing that's going on. in there every little mental breakdown. that she's had they saw it yet nobody. saw anyone suspicious like a new man. lingering around and then it hit them. they're like okay all the neighbors they. know so much about her or at least we. thought they did right but remember in. the beginning when I said as they're. investigating all the neighbors are like. CeCe who oh all that neighbor once they. see the picture records show that CeCe.
legally changed her name to Cece that's. not her real name or will it is now but. maybe like a few months ago it wasn't. her name that's not what everyone in the. apartment building knew her by. apparently CeCe had gone to a fortune. teller to ask her about her life and in. a lot of Asian cultures the mom's name. or a woman's name can determine not only. her own fate but the fate of her child. as well and the fortune teller told her. all your hardships your divorce they're. all going to be passed on to your child.
even if you're not with your child right. now unless you change your name so CeCe. went and she changed her name legally. she went from Chen AI to chenan MH and. she told nobody except a handful of. those closest to her but the letter had. tenanting on. there wow so that means her killer is. someone that knew her intimately it's. not a random client because she never. gives her real name to clients it's.
someone very very close to her even. neighbors didn't even know the new name. wow that is a detail that wow so maybe a. boyfriend maybe a pimp right they go. back to investigating and they're asking. around to see if CCE had someone close. to her that seemed dangerous and all the. neighbors are like I I mean I guess this. is kind of random but she did casually. mention quite a few times. that she had to go sleep with her. brother to make.
money what and the police were like her. brother like why would you not say that. and they're like her brother Fang that's. what we're calling him and then so. they're like why would you not tell us. that when we first asked you about it. and the neighbors are like yeah no no I. just thought she was saying like brother. like client friend man like hello. brother you know what I mean Hello Bro I. I didn't think she was actually talking. about her actual brother but then now. that you're asking oh is there someone. very close to her I guess like that. comes to mind I mean these are very big.
details so the police are going back to. all the neighbors asking I guess also. it's like the brothers maybe like. Koreans too like Opa yeah so you can. call someone Opa but you act your actual. brother you also called him Opa it's. like that go like oh yes yes but it's. not like my biological brother it's like. just a male that's older than me yes yes. so they're like oh well I thought she. was talking about clients and the police. are like okay what else can you think. about like just think anything any. little detail come on.
think there were rumors that the brother. was a little weird that Fang had an. obsession okay this is what the. neighbors are saying some said that he. had a journal that he kept about um an. actress named jeie She's a Taiwanese. actress and even jeie came forward after. this case broke to say like yeah that. actually happened so apparently he had a. journal that documented his love for her. and he declared himself her husband he. would send her tissues filled with male. bodily fluids threatening her if that.
she filmed any romantic scenes with any. other. men very bad things would happen to her. wow he would even go to her fan mates to. try and shake her hand and God knows. what else he was trying to do but the. neighbors are saying listen we don't. know for sure okay it's just a rumor. around the block that he's kind of weird. and the police are like okay what else. like what else could you have missed. because it seems like you missed a lot. of things right in one of the neighbor. States and there's the meat.
grinder these days someone in that. apartment unit has been chopping up meat. like you can hear the knife hitting the. Butcher Block so it's it's like someone. chopping up a chicken like a whole. chicken like you know when you're. chopping up chicken breast you're not. going to hear it from the apartment next. door but if I'm there butchering a. chicken trying to get through bone then. you might hear it will we keep hearing. it and then the meat grinder is just. going non-stop at night but we never. assumed it was strange because the. brother Fang is a chef he works with a.
lot of meat we just thought his sleep. schedule had just shifted to be. nighttime instead of daytime and like. how are we supposed to. [Music]. know so the police are like okay when. was this around the time that CeCe. stopped showing up so I guess around the. time that she. disappeared the investigators are like. all right then we're going to need a. whole team here stat if neighbors are.
suggesting and the police are theorizing. that the brother could have killed his. own sister that means he would have. likely dismembered her ground up her. flesh and what would you do if you're. the killer probably dispose of her body. parts in a toilet or kitchen sink drain. we have to check all the septic tanks. sewage systems we need to check the. pipes to see if CC's DNA is in there the. police also went in to search the the. unit now with where Fang and CeCe lived. and they found very curious evidence.
they found several knives with big dents. on the blades like someone was. dismembering something much bigger than. a chicken they found cce's DNA found in. the inside the slow cooker the slow. cooker they found her DNA inside the. pots not on the Outside Inside and I'm. sure the DNA was not like a piece of. hair oh my gosh they also found her DNA. on knes the evidence suggests that Fang.
killed his own sister dismembered her. and then cooked her remains probably so. it would be easier to dispose down the. trains or down the toilet so bear with. me theory is dismembered meet grinder. cooked then flushed in the toilet right. the cops found nothing in the septic. tank or the sewage system or the. pipes. but they found it in the pot yes and.
nowhere else in the house oh so you're. saying that he didn't flush it down no. that's crazy so we don't know we still. don't know to this day what he did we. just know not down the. drains so we just know she was cooked. and then what happened next I mean the. obvious question is did he consume her. did he let others consume her. we don't know so CeCe's mom she hadn't.
been able to get in contact with CeCe. for the past 3 months that's why she. filed that missing person's report and. ever since she found out CeCe had been. murdered she had not been able to get. any sleep she had just so many regrets. as a mother one of the biggest being. that after all of her kids had grown up. the whole family moved to a neighboring. City to find more opportunities and work. everyone right except for brother Fang. and daughter CeCe they stayed behind in. their hometown and CeCe's mom would make. the trip down to the hometown every. single week just to check up on CeCe but.
at least she's like you know what one of. my eldest kids my second son is taking. care of CeCe looking after her she said. that CeCe was struggling with her mental. health so the whole family knew that. Fang was you know particularly attentive. towards his younger sister but towards. the end of 2012 CeCe just like dropped. off the face of the Earth she would. never respond to text messages calls. nothing she also just stopped coming. home and Fang as like I'm I don't know. where she is they all try searching for. her by themselves the family does.
they're calling her lingering around the. apartment trying to find friends asking. neighbors nobody's seen her they finally. file a missing person's report and the. mom she admitted you know I was worried. that something bad happened to my. daughter but we were more leaning. towards the fact that maybe she met. someone new maybe she was out drinking. you know we none of them thought that. her head would be found in a plastic bag. left at a temple. bathroom which Speaking of in a last.
Stitch effort to try and solve this case. the police bring in CeCe's mom one more. time they had already traumatized this. poor woman she was asked to identify her. daughter's remains and since they didn't. want to mess with the evidence too much. she basically had to see her daughter's. head decapitated and covered in salt she. also saw the clothes that were wrapped. around her daughter and she had bought. those clothes for her. daughter and so it it was really rough.
um the officer said that she was. grabbing onto their jackets shaking them. like Balling on the ground screaming. tell me what happened you need to figure. out what. happened I don't know how she's going to. cope with son and daughter like yeah. they it's like a moment where the mom I. think realized that true evil existed in. this world and her daughter must have. come face to face with the devil that's. the feeling so the offic devil is your. son like how do you.
even you're it's kind of surprising her. reaction later um so the officers they. hesitantly bring in the mom again and. they start asking the questions about. her son's relationship with the daughter. and I mean obviously the mom is taken. off guard she feels like the police are. kind of framing it all strange which I. mean clearly it's not like that she's. saying no my son Fang is a good kid. who's helping take care of my younger. daughter he probably wasn't the best. caretaker she's still engaged in sex. work and did drugs and like yes I know. that's bad but we're all doing the best.
that we. can the officers finally show her the. CCTV footage this is like March of 2013. so Taiwan in March is not that cold not. puffer jacket cold he's wearing a puffer. jacket wearing a mask sunglasses and a. curly wig like an ajma wig an old lady. wig which just felt so offputting right. very strange the figure is seen covered. up completely like they don't want to be.
recognized they're holding a black. plastic bag and they disappear near the. temple cuz there's no more CCTV cameras. they walk back out without the plastic. bag so CeCe's mom takes one look at the. footage and she feels. destroyed in the span of like a week or. two she identified her daughter as the. brutal murder victim and her son as the. predator and killer of of her. daughter and everyone's just wondering.
why would the brother do this the theory. is her brother was her pimp and things. had escalated until he killed her it. speculated that they themselves had a. very Twisted relationship so Fang would. allegedly pimp her out take most of the. money that she earned minus the money. that she would need to spend on he. really only allowed it because drugs. would be the way to keep her compliant. it would be to keep her in check make. her easy to control we which is this. part is already so sick and twisted. especially between siblings but even.
worse than that it's suspected that he. was abusing his own sister their mom. would send CeCe $250 a month but she. would ask her son Fang to take the money. first and then split it into small. payments and give it to Cece throughout. the month because she was worried if she. gave it to her all at once it would just. go to right and to CeCe's mom it. appeared like her son Fang was just this. nice older brother but in reality he was. dangling the money over Cece's head to. get her to perform acts for him his own.
sister it's speculated that this is just. how it started for 14. years. what and eventually after 14 years. Cece's not bringing in enough money for. Fang she's becoming a liability she's 39. years old at this point she's been doing. she's been in this line of work for the. past at least 4 14 years I mean this. would have taken a large toll on her. mental health physical health and if.
we're being very thorough also on her. appearance because are known to be very. very damaging to I guess appearance not. that that's the biggest thing but in. this line of work it might matter you. know and Fang decides it's time to move. on he also thinks about his own life. he's like you know what I want to start. a family I want to have a wife and kids. and I can't do that when there's strange. men in and out of the house and my. sister is. making explicit noises in the room next. door like I can't do that what would my.
wife think so that's one problem but. another problem is that in China there's. something called a. dowy it's not required by law or. anything but it's pretty standard since. there are a lot more men than there are. women in China to get married men have. gotten kind of creative and it's also a. tradition right some men will get. creative trying to secure a family they. will bring lump sums of cash to the. bride's family sh the bride with gold. literally gold give gift them luxury.
items all these things to be able to. marry the women that they love right now. typically the DIY is different amongst. each marriage and class it's it's a lot. of money and it typically um it. shouldn't bankrupt a man in his family. right so it just depends on how well. you're doing financially but Fang had. just met a woman from fuan mhm on a. blind dat any wants to marry her they. don't even know each other but he's like. you know what she's nice she's willing. to move to Taiwan the only thing is he. would need to pay $35,000 for a dowy.
what's Wild though is that her family. didn't even request a doy they said. actually our daughter being able to move. to Taiwan is enough for us we think that. she'll have more opportunities in. Taiwan but he's like no I'm going to get. you guys dowy I'm going to take out a. loan and give you a. dow so they get married he does the dowy. and she's tying up loose strings his. wife packing her things in mainland. China to move to Taiwan so after his.
marriage he's like you know what I need. this is the time to get rid of my sister. cuz there's no other time once my wife. moves here I can't get rid of my sister. it's time for my sister to be useful. again Fang had worked in the insurance. industry before all of this so he knew a. lot about life insurance how it worked. how to get paid so starting in 2011 this. is 2 years before the murder it's a. meticulously thought out plan. Fang starts buying up life insurance. policies for his sister totaling up to4.
million. $250,000 2 years before her death then. he killed her and then he sent the. letter now this is not for his own guilt. that he wants his sister to at least be. buried and rest in peace no it was for. insurance purposes Fang knew that if his. sister's death couldn't be confirmed and. she had only disappeared he would have. to wait on average 7 years to claim the. money that is too long he needed the. authorities to know who this was so that. they could confirm her death and he.
could get paid. $250,000 that's why he also chose a very. public bathroom at a temple to do it so. her head would be found faster but he. did try to confuse the police with the. taxi driver DNA so he found underwear. wrapped her in it right and he made sure. to kill his sister before his new wife. moved in slowly disposing disposing of. her remains so it's assumed that the. rest of her body was dismembered and. ground up but the only problem was he. needed to keep the head because that's. what would give him the life insurance.
payout that's the. ID mhm and he didn't have time to get. rid of the head before his new wife. moved in that's crazy so the wife. doesn't even know that's the sister no. because she never met the sister but she. did hear that the sister had gone. missing but the and and the wife didn't. go to the police. no yeah so Fang's wife she goes by um. Mrs Lou in the media but we'll call her. Lucy right umth she's the one from the.
beginning of this story authorities. tracked her down in mainland China and. started asking her questions about the. relationship and they said At first she. seemed really traumatized and scared she. like refused to talk she kept asking if. they were a th% sure if Fang was going. to be locked up for good for this and. when they finally assured her yes he. cannot touch you he cannot do anything. to you or your family then she started. telling them the story of how she found. a head in their. freezer she said that she moved to.
Taiwan looking for a better life. compared to her hometown that's honestly. a pretty big reason why she married him. right but when she got there she. realized pretty quickly okay it's kind. of the same as my hometown like it's not. really it's not bad but it's the same as. my hometown same amount of opportunities. but instead I'm away from my family and. friends instead I'm isolated so it's. just kind of for her personally she. didn't like it and now that she had. married this guy she's like okay maybe. we can find love she tried so hard and.
at first it was kind of cute he's. cooking he's always in the kitchen and. she thought he he always seemed mature. he had a provider mindset right but then. slowly after she saw the head in the. fridge and even just a little bit before. there were these little red flags that. she would see he kept telling her after. the head that he bought her like he. didn't say he married her he said he. bought her that she was his and he could. return her or do whatever else he wanted. with her because she belonged to him he.
also talked a lot about his little. sister and the words that he used made. Lucy very uncomfortable he would call. Cece. quote not a good thing like he always. talked about how promiscuous she was and. how it disgusted him how she had fallen. to and drinking and now she's gone and. Lucy's like oh what happened to your. sister I used to live with her but now. she's missing did you report her missing. no Lucy remembered trying to bring up.
CeCe again and again and she's like okay. if your sister is missing like no matter. how much you disagree with her lifestyle. you still have to report her missing. because that's basic human decency right. but Fang refused he yelled at her to. stay out of it don't stick her nose in. where it doesn't belong and know her. place basically so that with the head I. mean she's in Taiwan she's got no. friends no one to trust it felt like. Fang would just k kill her too if he. knew that she knew about what he did. even if he suspected that she knew her.
life was in danger so she waited a few. weeks to come up with a believable lie. that her family member died and she had. to go back for the funeral she managed. to escape to her family but she had zero. proof of what she saw and at that point. she's like he's probably gotten rid of. the head even when she was telling her. family about it some people were looking. at her like she lost her mind I mean. there was no way that the police were. going to believe her and if they. investigated without con convicting Fang. she would have a big Target on her back. she knows he would have killed her too.
she knows it even if she never saw the. head because now after learning about. all this Lucy said after moving to. Taiwan he kept bringing her to all these. life insurance companies trying to get. life insurance on her and they all said. we can't because she's not a permanent. resident of Taiwan yet so she can't have. life insurance here she can have it in. mainland China but not here at least not. right now and she said Fang seemed. really. disappointed and she's like well I don't. have plans on dying anytime soon I'm in.
my. 20s oh she's only 20s yeah and Fang said. the aliens made him do it okay let me. explain yeah so the police go in to. arrest Fang Cece's own biological. brother and authorities thought this guy. is sick and twisted we don't know what. he's been doing he might try to use. Force he might try to fight back and get. violent so they Blindside him sneak up. in the apartment building and kick down. the door slam him up against the walls. handcuff him and Fang did not fight he.
actually went limp like a ragd doll it. was odd and then they heard this like. trickle trickle noise and he had peed. himself so the four officers they had to. carry him out he apparently couldn't. even walk anymore it was a lot there was. just PE trailing behind him but still. being officers they're thinking oh easy. peasy this guy's going to this guy's. going to confess so quickly right he's. got no back bone he's already so. terrified he knows he's screwed but when. they sit him down in the interrogation.
room it's like he's a different person. they're like where was that guy in the. car just 2 seconds ago he's calm. collected he either stayed silent and. gave the officers nothing or he. deflected all the questions he even. calmly threatened to file complaints. against the police for coercion so. imagine arresting someone they're peeing. themselves cuz they're so scared they've. seemingly lost all bodily functions but. then a minute later they're in the. interrogation room smelling of urine and. they're saying officer you shouldn't ask. questions like that according to. criminal code. 97 yeah what's up with that like yeah.
they think that he was probably putting. on a show when he was arrested for what. reasons to make it seem like he's. mentally. unwell I see so ultimately that's even. more sick and twisted that he peed. himself just. to fake uh whatever wow because before. he was arrested he went to a. psychiatrist and asked them to diagnose. him with a mental. disorder and they were like do you have. a mental disorder ultimately the.
prosecutors had a lot going for them the. wife's testimony neighbors testimony the. forensic evidence the CCTV footage side. note about the CCTV footage the police. were also able to find more footage. closer to Fang's apartment that showed. the same figure so basically they were. able to track him like not completely. but pretty good also the CCTV shows Fang. bringing cce's head to the temple two. days before the head was found meaning. for two full days locals tourists Temple.
goers had used that restroom not knowing. that there was a head there and side. note about this Fang said that he was. anxious after placing the head in the. bathroom not for the reasons that you. would think though like he just killed. his sister disposed of her body in the. most horrific way maybe he's scared of. guilt potentially even getting caught. but no he said he was anxiously checking. the news for 2 days because he was. worried that he was terrified that they. wouldn't know it's her no that someone. would just throw it away without. checking yeah yeah exactly he wants this.
to be known his money exactly and he's. like then it would be a headache I'd. have to wait 7 years to get the. insurance pay out so even with all of. this out in the open Fang's like I'm not. going to go down without a fight he. starts pretending to be insane in the. courtroom collapsing waking up and. saying the aliens are here they've. implanted a chip in my brain and the. aliens have controlled me he would. pretend to cry and say the aliens made. me kill my sister they controlled me to.
commit these acts and I remember it I. remember it I don't want to remember it. they manipulated me they want me to end. my life so I can't speak the truth and. then the court would be out of session. cuz they're like this man is unhinged go. put him in his cell right the minute he. gets in his cell he turns around he's. cool calm collected and he starts. bragging to his cellmates about his. murder yeah and then the next day he'd. be dragged back into court drooling. collapsing showing reports from the. psych atrist that deemed him mentally. ill before before he was even arrested.
because remember what I said it's like. he had this insurance plan that if he. does get arrested he could just plea. Insanity he's like look I've got all the. reports professional examinations after. his arrest revealed Fang to be mentally. sound and fit to stand. trial but CeCe's mom and Fang's. mom stood by. Fang what she said that it was probably. a mental breakdown she testified that. their family does have a history of. hereditary mental disorders and she.
begged the judge to. not to not give the be death penalty to. Fang she said I already lost a daughter. please spare my son I miss my daughter. very much but at this point what else. can I do I hope the judges can forgive. Fang and give him another chance and she. argued her son is a good son he's never. done anything bad before that's crazy I. wonder if there's a level of like um son. versus daughter you know how the. traditional view in the end Fang was.
sentenced April 30th 2015 he was facing. the death penalty but the judges did. take his mom's please into consideration. they gave him life imprisonment instead. and neens were really confused on how to. feel about this right some neens just. felt sad they said we feel sad for CCE. we feel sad for the mom for the. situation and they asked the question. what parts of CCE did her brother kill. before he finally killed her physically.
if he had been assaulting her forcing. her to do forcing her to do sex work. like this was not a fast kill he was. probably killing her slowly for over a. decade but that but other people felt. like the mom doesn't know what she's. talking about and the court should have. not have listened her they said do you. think a respectful son like the mom. claims would kill his own sister for. insurance money. others wondered any mother whose child. is so viciously taken from them they.
would hate and despise the killer with. all their heart but when they realize. that the Killer is their own son do they. still hate and despise as. much I don't know what do you think of. the. question leave it in the comments I mean. let me know all your thoughts in the. comments I read most of the comments I'm. always looking down there and I'm just. very interested in this case because I. IM imagine like the feeling of she's got. this intense hatred for whoever did this.
to her daughter and then to find out it. was her son does something shift right. there does something change does that. hatred suddenly dim. down like what happens or is it a. different kind of pain does that hatred. turn into. sorrow I I'm not a parent so it's really. hard for me to like even imagine so. parents out there please leave it in the. comments but please stay safe and I will. see you guys on Sunday for the mini bye.
