Killer: Online Gaming Made Me Crazy

[Mr. Hrm]

Following this thread, I've stumbled on this.

The court heard Hu was addicted to the online game Legend. His parents gave him 50,000 yuan (US$7,353) to support his seafood business in March 2007, but he spent it all on the online game.

Legend is an online game where players can buy virtual weapons and equipment with real money.

The report said Hu bought 20 packs of tetramine on July 14, 2007, and poisoned his father Hu Ming the next morning. His father was saved after emergency treatment.

Hu Ange then bought 45 more packs of tetramine on July 20 and mixed them with beef on July 24.

Both his parents were poisoned after eating the beef at lunch.

Hu Ange's mother asked him to call for help but he stayed in his room to play Legend, the report said.
