flag Hakyung Lee sentenced to life for killing her two children, whose bodies were found in suitcases in 2022.

flag Hakyung Lee, a New Zealand woman, has been sentenced to life in prison with a minimum of 17 years for the 2018 murders of her two children, Minu Jo, 6, and Yuna Jo, 8, whose bodies were found in suitcases in an Auckland storage unit in 2022. flag Lee, who fled to South Korea and was extradited, was convicted after a trial that rejected her insanity defense despite her severe depression and grief following her husband’s death. flag The court ruled her actions were deliberate, and she will first serve her sentence in a psychiatric facility before transferring to prison. flag The case, known as the "suitcase murders," has drawn national attention to mental health, parental responsibility, and the long-term impact of untreated psychological distress.
