Summary
A Taiwanese woman sentenced to 11 years and 2 months for poisoning her Australian ex-lover with rat poison, nearly killing him multiple times — including while he was hospitalized — as she plotted to keep him in Taiwan, even manipulating his father’s medical decisions. The 23-year-old victim, Alex Shorey, survived after a global crowdfunding effort raised $200,000 for his medical evacuation, with the family thanking supporters and donating leftover funds to his care team. The court found no remorse from the defendant, who denied intent to kill but was convicted of a meticulously planned, malicious act.
