The man who murdered and sexually violated elderly Te Atatu woman Cunxiu Tian was released from prison 38 days before her brutal death. Jaden Lee Stroobant on Wednesday pleaded guilty to murdering the 69-year-old in her home on January 15 last year. He also admitted two charges of sexually violating the pensioner, whose body was found by her daughter. The Herald can now report that Stroobant was released from prison just over a month before the brutal attack. He was living there with his mother, who spoke to the Herald days after Tian was slain.
