A South Korean court has given a life sentence to a true crime fan who told police she murdered a stranger “out of curiosity”.
Jung Yoo-jung, 23, had been obsessed with crime shows and novels and scored highly on psychopath tests, police said.
Fixated with the idea of “trying out a murder”, she used an app to meet an English-language teacher, stabbing her to death at her home in May.
The brutal killing shocked South Korea.
Prosecutors had asked for the death penalty - a request typically reserved for the gravest of offences.
Being alone in general is not a good idea with people you haven’t established trust with.
Humans are just too fickle and prone to acting on urges without thinking about the consequences. It’s getting worse as more people spend less time with eachother.
I don’t quite get this culture of fear.
It seems to come out of ignorance of statistics.
Be the world you want to see.
