Taichung MRT witnessed a vicious slashing incident on May 21st, where a man randomly attacked passengers with a knife, severely injuring a high school student and another man. The suspect, due to dissatisfaction with society, planned the attack to gain attention and deliberately chose the 10th anniversary of the Zheng Jie case. The prosecution has charged him with attempted murder and causing public alarm, seeking a severe punishment. The victims' families have expressed their respect for the judicial process. Despite forgiving the suspect, they leave it to the justice system for societal judgment on the severity of the crimes. The suspect's motive remains complex, with one victim's family aiming for compensation if the suspect's parents are willing to contribute to charity.
