Man accused of killing, dismembering mother pleads guilty
A man accused of killing and dismembering his mother in their Waikiki, Hawaii, apartment pleaded guilty. Yu Wei Gong pleaded guilty to manslaughter Friday after originally being charged with second-degree murder. The lower charge carries a maximum penalty of 20 years in prison.
Gong admitted to killing his mother, Liu Yun Gong, in September 2016, according to court documents. Yu Wei Gong said he accidentally killed her during an argument.
When officers asked about his mother's whereabouts after searching the unit, Yu Wei Gong said she was "in the fridge," according to the police complaint.
An officer searcher the freezer and found human remains, including two arms with hands and a decapitated head, in numerous plastic trash bags, the complaint said. The medical examiner's office determined the cause of death was injuries sustained from blunt force trauma to the head. The manner of death was ruled a homicide.
