Owner Shui Keung “Tony’’ Woo often slept overnight rather than take the hour drive to his home in Quincy. He was napping when he was assaulted, bound both at the feet and at his hands and had a ligature about his neck. He was brutally bludgeoned, repeatedly stabbed, with visible trauma and multiple stab wounds to his head and body, as well as substantial injury to his neck and larynx” Prosecutors suggested the it may have been an attempted robbery. The three men indicted were Jun Di Lin, 29, of Malden, Sifa Lee, 34, of Quincy, and Cheng Sun, 46, of New York, NY

On Sept. 22 2014, Jun Di Lin Pleads Guilty to Manslaughter  Jun Di Lin, 32, pleaded guilty to manslaughter and to two other original charges, armed assault with intent to rob a person over 60 years old and intimidate to steal — threatening someone in order to rob them.

Lawyers tried to exclude GPS data in the cab which helped investigators find that the cab traveled to the Foxwoods and Mohegan Sun casinos. There surveillance video and other information that helped them identify suspects.

Alternative theory: a murder so bad it looks like the motive could have been terrorism, with robbery merely a cover story.
