Texas Man Murdered His Ex-wife
Trang Vu, 52, now named Itani Milleni, murdered 49-year-old Ngoc Tran in 2015, according to a Harris County Attorney’s Office news release.
Tran, a beautician, was found murdered at her school and beauty salon in Houston’s Chinatown, but the murder weapon was never found.
According to the statement, based on the investigation, detectives suspected someone staged the robbery to cover up Trans’s murder because his credit cards and money were never touched.
Authorities said that three months after Trans’s death, Vu changed his name, moved away from Houston, and relinquished his parental rights to the couple’s children.
Four years later, he attempted to collect money from Trans Life Insurance, prompting investigators to re-examine the case. After a six-day trial and a 25-minute jury deliberation, Vu pleaded guilty to murder.
“He thought he got away with it,” Assistant District Attorney Stephany Abner said in a statement.
“We are glad that the victim and her family have finally received justice, as it has been a long time coming.”
