David Breitman

David Breitman was the victim of the twelfth case in Pacific Bay, Payback (Case #68, or Case #12 of Pacific Bay).

Killer and Motives
In the case's shocking moments, the killer was a Chinese herbalist named Yuan Wong.

Yuan and David were burglars three decades prior to this case and David came to retrieve a cut from a robbery Yuan owed him, but instead Yuan used the money she got from various robberies to fund Yuan's Garden, her herbal business, and felt that monies she and David seized from past robberies were better spent for her business's maintenance. David didn't like Yuan's change of life and asked her for monies she owed him from 25 years ago, but Yuan didn't like the idea of having to fund an ex-con turned beggar neither. To protect her family's honor, Yuan bumped into David at Myriam Miller's delicatessen one day and didn't hesitate to blind him with hot tea. Once David was stunned, Yuan slashed David at the throat, and then knocked David outcold with a menorah (Jewish candelabra), personally believing she had no other choice but to resort to murder.

The Honorable Dante decided thus to hold Yuan liable for killing an ex-convict for loot she kept for 25 years, and opted to label Yuan as a burglar at heart. Despite her attempts to build an earnest life, Yuan was handed a 25-year jail sentence for grand homicide and for robberies outstanding. Amy didn't like how the Honorable Dante started the verdict but felt certain pasts were meant to stay resident in certain personas forever.
