Huang, a man from Taoyuan, Taiwan, was sentenced to 2 years and 10 months for spraying lubricant on his bedridden mother's head while under the influence of drugs in September 2022. He then attempted to light a fire, causing burns to her head and hands. Initially, he was sentenced to 3 years and 4 months but appealed, leading to a reduced sentence due to his mother's passing and his admission of guilt, which the family forgave. The Supreme Court upheld the final verdict, highlighting Huang's lack of acknowledgment at the scene and his eventual remorse and plea for leniency.
