The Strange Confession of Chung Kim, the 75-Year-Old Accused of Dog Poop Slaying

Chung Kim

The Morning News sat down this morning for a jailhouse interview with Chung Kim, the 75-year-old charged with murdering his upstairs neighbors on Monday, and his version of events differs somewhat from the police's narrative, which is that he became enraged when dog shit landed on his porch and hunted down the dog's owners, Jamie Stafford and Michelle Jackson, in front of their 1-month-old baby

For starters, he told the News that it was human feces and that it had not been dumped on his back porch but deposited by Stafford at his front door.

Kim also claims the gun he used didn't belong to him but to Stafford, who put the weapon to Chung's head when the elder man went to confront him about the shit on his porch. Chung says he managed to wrestle the gun away and shot Stafford. He didn't, he insists, kill Jackson.

"The police is wrong," Kim told the News. "I don't know how she died. I don't remember nothing. I shoot him. I didn't shoot her. My head all blank. This man is trying to kill me."

He also dismissed witnesses' reports that he'd been involved in an ongoing dispute with the couple over noise, attributing the claims to his neighbors' prejudice.

Wow this one puts the libs in a tough spot..

@blowmetone if it's true (someone being shot with his own gun after it was wrestled away by an unarmed geezer, either or both of them possibly being nutjobs), it only strengthens the case for more gun control, not least of which being more mandatory training for owners.

No it doesn't Glen Beck Fucker. A tuff spot is you walking into a Black club.

This is a pretty good setup - if he's telling the truth and it was the victim's gun, the original report was waaaaaay off. If it was his gun, he's one crazy lying MF. My spidey-sense says it's the latter - I just don't see him wrestling a gun away from a 31-year old father in front of his 5 kids and wife.
