It can be a brutal battle of will and wits as a crafty killer and seasoned detective try and outsmart the other. On the other hand some- times the killer literally says, “I did it. I’m the one you want. I killed her.” In Hawaii recently, a man that was arrested after his mother’s body was found in a freezer in the man’s apart- ment couldn’t have been more cooperative. Police officers barely had time to identify themselves before the suspect said, “She’s in the fridge.” Yu Wei Gong, 26, was charged with second-degree murder. His mother, Liu Yun Gong, was found wrapped in seven plastic bags inside a refrigerator freezer in her sixth floor apartment in Honolulu’s Waikiki neigh- borhood. Gong reportedly told po- lice he didn’t mean to kill his mother but he got angry because she was nagging him about going to school. Authorities said Wong called dispatchers saying he was suicidal and telling them ‘I killed my mother.’ Authorities determined she had died from blunt force trauma to the head. Police said Gong called it an ‘accident’ and said he didn’t mean to do it. His bail was set at $2 mil- lion, according to the Star Advertiser.
