> For some 10 years, I had recommended 100 mainland Chinese students to the department and all accepted by the department. I am always indebt to the trust of my judgements by the department. Only very few of them misbehaved, bit the hands which fed them, none of them intended to murder their parents/friends, almost all of them performed well and became well-liked.
No murderers, great success!
- yding 4y agoIt's a reference to Brendt Christensen.
- eclarkso 4y agoI doubt it, as the non-bolded portions were written in 2013, 4 years prior to the murder of Yingjing Zhang.

( Interestingly, every summary of the case in media and Wiki stops listing the evidence against him at his secretly taped confession to a girlfriend - confession that included some things absolutely not confirmed. The most convincing evidence to my eyes is the victim’s DNA in the blood found under the carpet and elsewhere there it has survived cleaning efforts. This is not mentioned anywhere except in the court recordings: https://news.wttw.com/sites/default/files/article/file-attachments/JT%20CHRISTENSEN%20%20VOLUME%208A%20%28Redacted%29.pdf https://news.wttw.com/sites/default/files/article/file-attac... . Kinda sad what is convincing these days ).
