Quick Glance: Death Sentence for Real Estate Tycoon in Vietnam's Largest Fraud Case
- Truong My Lan, a prominent businesswoman and real estate tycoon, was sentenced to death in Vietnam's largest financial fraud case, marking a shocking development in the country's escalating anti-corruption campaign.
- Born in 1956, Lan founded the Van Thinh Phat company with her family in 1992, which grew to become one of Vietnam's richest real estate firms linked to some of Ho Chi Minh's most valuable properties.
- She was accused of using the bank as her cash cow, illegally controlling it between 2012 and 2022, and using thousands of 'ghost companies' in Vietnam and abroad to give loans to herself and her allies.
- Her arrest in October 2022 falls within a period of increased anti-corruption efforts in Vietnam ramping up since 2022, impacting the country's economic outlook and unsettling foreign investors.

Missouri death row inmate Brian Dorsey facing 'surgery without anesthesia': lawyer
nypost.com/2024/04/06/us-news/missouri-death-row-inmate-facing-surgery-without-anesthesia-lawyer/
Quick Glance: Missouri death row inmate facing 'surgery without anesthesia': lawyer
- The Missouri Supreme Court denied a request to halt the execution of Brian Dorsey, a death row inmate scheduled to be put to death through lethal injection, despite concerns raised by his legal team about the lack of anesthesia during a potential surgical procedure.
- State law mandates the establishment of primary and intravenous lines for the lethal injection, but fails to specify the extent to which the execution team can intervene to locate a suitable vein.
- Citing Dorsey's medical history and conditions, including obesity, diabetes, and past IV drug use, his lawyers have highlighted the increased challenges in finding a viable vein without resorting to invasive procedures.
- In addition to the appeals from numerous corrections officers urging Governor Mike Parson for clemency, leaders within the community have also expressed support for Dorsey.
