TAIPEI, Taiwan — A young woman allegedly committed suicide after killing her 83-year-old grandmother in Taoyuan Saturday in what is believed to be the “result of concerns over an uncertain future,” police said.

The father of the young woman, 20, witnessed her jumping to her death from his 13-floor apartment in Gueishan District, but did not realize that his mother had already been killed by his daughter, police said.

The alleged suicide-murder occurred just a few days after the suicidal woman’s 86-year-old grandfather had died. The family had been talking about sending the woman’s grandmother, a patient with Alzheimer’s disease, to a nursing home, police said.

The 20-year-old, who had just left school and had been looking for a job, had been very close to the grandparents, with whom she had lived since childhood separately from her single-parent father, according to police.     [FULL  STORY]
