Victim's E-journal
led to slay suspect

BY KERRY BURKE, SCOTT SHIFREL and MELISSA GRACE
DAILY NEWS STAFF WRITERS

Suspect Jin Lin (right)
A doomed Queens man's chilling computer entry led cops to a suspect who allegedly robbed and killed the victim and his sister to finance a return to China, police said yesterday.

Jin Lin, 23, was charged with first-degree murder yesterday in the bloody slayings of Sharon and Simon Ng in their Kew Gardens Hills apartment Thursday, officials said.

Cops zeroed in on Lin, who once dated the woman, because Ng typed a journal entry into his computer fingering his sister's ex-boyfriend as the suspect, police said.

"He wrote that he was wondering why Lin was there and wished he would leave," said Police Officer Jennara Everleth, an NYPD spokeswoman.

Cops said that Ng, 19, let Lin into the second-floor apartment in the late afternoon when Lin asked if he could wait for the 21-year-old Sharon.

Sgt. Michael Breidenbach, head of the 107th Precinct detective squad, said the entry turned Lin's alibi upside down.

"That puts him in the apartment," said Breidenbach, adding that investigators got Lin to confess after confronting him with the entry.

Lin told cops he wanted to rob her to help him buy a plane ticket back to Hong Kong, law enforcement sources said.

Lin - who was picked up at his Flushing home on Friday - told cops that he set upon Simon Ng after failing to find any money in Sharon's bedroom.

Lin tied Simon Ng up and stabbed him repeatedly in the chest with a butcher knife, cops said.

It was not clear how much time passed before Sharon Ng came home at 9:30 p.m. Cops said Lin pounced on her as she entered the home and stabbed her repeatedly in the neck.

In the minutes after the attack, Sharon Ng's current boyfriend called and she managed to tell him to get help.

She died about an hour later at New York Hospital Medical Center of Queens.

A cousin of the slain siblings - their own parents returned to Hong Kong six months ago - remained in shock over the killings yesterday.

"It's unbelievable that it was one single guy!" said Sam Cheung, 24. "He took two lives. How can one person do this?"

I'm glad the person was arrested. But I feel a little dirty, as in I want to wash my hands dirty, after reading the posts of a dead kid.

Why are we such car-accident-philes? (I.e. can't look away, it's like a car accident, a need to see how awful it is.)

quadro2000 · 05-25-2005, 12:23 PM

I was actually just going to post a journal entry about this.

It's chilling to read the words of somebody who has recently died - especially when they clearly had no idea what was going to happen. I remember the day of the Columbine shooting, somebody sent me the AOL screenname of one of the two guys - and it was just chilling. There's something about the internet and its immediacy that really brings home how our lives can be changed irrevocably in less than an instant.

All the comments on the Xanga page are really what got to me.

That is so very....weird.

I just can't come up with anything.

lindseylatch · 05-25-2005, 01:46 PM

aww, man...
That's gross...he was just a kid, doin' his thing in his room...ugh

Halx · 05-25-2005, 01:53 PM

Makes me wanna get that shirt that says, "I'm blogging this."

Could prevent me from getting murdered!

Manuel Hong · 05-25-2005, 02:50 PM

That was chilling. I don't know what to say.

RogueHunter65 · 05-25-2005, 04:13 PM

Wow that is extremely sad. It's sad when a life is cut short for no good reason. It is weird and interesting to read his posts and look at his thoughts and plans.

For instance he talks about being excited about Star Wars III and he didnt live long enough to see it. It is just completely depressing.

ophelia783 · 05-26-2005, 11:09 PM

That's crazy......I just got major chills.....

Stiltzkin · 05-27-2005, 12:10 AM

Fucking chilling like hell. Seriously. I had to sit still for a whole minute.

EDIT: Shit man . . . I was gonna read some articles then go watch some titties. I know I'm ridiculously hypocritical for feeling this way, but I just don't feel like seeing titties anymore.

hrandani · 05-27-2005, 02:13 AM

It's funny, because earlier today I was thinking about how my livejournal will prove if nothing else that one day I existed, had thoughts, dreams, and fears, even if nothing else survives. Kind of like this post. A depressed thought, sure, but it's true.

raeanna74 · 05-27-2005, 06:53 AM

This boy could have had no idea how recording his minor irritation at the guy being in his home may save other lives from this man. At least there was justice served and he had no idea how he would offer up the means for that to happen.

This is actually a lesson in how we should trust our instincts. The boy felt the man needed to leave. If he had never let the man in then perhaps he wouldn't be dead today.

A depressed thought? Just the fact that you had dreams, thoughts and fears has it's own value.

That's the most chilling part, to me.

Hopefully he will leave soon

Its sad to think that there are people in the world so cold. I can't imagine how the parents feel. Both of their kids taken in such a horrible way. WOW! Damn our free will.

kangaeru · 05-29-2005, 03:56 PM

So sad...makes you wonder why we deserve to exist.

it's always refreshing to see that kind of outlook from a person. shame to see someone like that go, especially like this.

JamesB · 05-31-2005, 11:47 AM

I feel really bad about this. My soul hurts. This is terrible.

I literally got goose-bumps reading his blog (without knowing what happened first). May he rest in peace.

turbofish · 06-01-2005, 02:45 AM

Extremly sad. Glad the guy got caught... Sending him for a lifetime of pound-me-in-the-ass...
