Hou Boqing on June 18, 2024, at 11:23 PM reported that Tsai Guo-an, a financial fraudster who impersonated the wives of Duterte and Hsiao Wan-chang to scam investors, did not express an opinion on the sentencing in the second trial. Tsai, the unlicensed accountant, falsified investment cases in the names of former Vice President's wife Zhu Shuxian, Formosa Plastics, and presented photos with prominent figures like the former Philippine President Duterte, to secure over 3.6 billion in investments. The New Taipei District Court sentenced him to 14 years, and the High Court increased it to 14 years and 2 months, ordering the return of 2.474 billion to victims, confiscating the rest, and rejecting other appeals. Tsai, who is currently detained, remained expressionless during the sentencing and silent when questioned by reporters.
