9-Years-Old Vietnamese Girl: A Case Study
The body of 9-years-old Vietnamese girl was founded in Abiko city, Chiba Prefecture, Japan on Sunday (March 26) morning. The cause of death was identified by strangulation, her body showed signs of sexual assault.

On March 24, Japanese newspapers reported on a Vietnamese girl gone missing on her way to school. The original information came from a Facebook post supposedly written by a family member of Le Thi Nhat Linh (who later closed the account). Family members turned worried when the school announced that their daughter had not gone to school earlier, nor had she returned home yet. Early in the morning of March 26, the girl’s body was founded on a riverbank in Abiko, Chiba Prefecture, about 10 km from her home in Matsudo.

After the initial examination of her body, the police concluded that Linh was killed between the morning of March 24 and the night of March 25. The likeliest possibility was that the victim was kidnapped after leaving home for school shortly, and was killed afterwards. Autopsy result determined that she was strangled to death, likely by a belt. There were also injuries to her private part, pointing to the possibility of sexual abuse prior to her death.

The police has collected information from several drivers who frequent the ramps that Linh might have passed by in Matsudo that morning. The investigation team also reviewed footages taken by security

    The Hmong people didn’t understand the American treatment that the doctors were doing on their child Lia. They would give the Hmong people directions to follow but they didn’t follow the directions because they really didn’t understand what was going on in the American culture. It was medications that the doctors prescribed to Lia but her parents didn’t give them to her correctly because they really were not taught how. Not until a few visits later doctors had a translator available but that really didn’t help because the Lee’s still seemed confused about the medication. But that still wouldn’t help them because, " if lia prescriptions haven't been changed so often, her parents might have been less confused and more confident that the doctors knew what they…
