SAN FRANCISCO (KRON) — A jury convicted a San Francisco man this week of murdering his wife inside a church in 2018 after she attended a Palm Sunday service.
Wyn Leung, 47, was found guilty of first-degree murder, felony domestic violence, and violating his estranged wife’s restraining order. Jieyun Zhou was slain by her abusive husband on March 25, 2018.
District Attorney Brooke Jenkins said, “My office is committed to standing by victims for as long as it takes to see justice done and ensuring there is accountability and abusers face consequences.”
Zhou, 37, had recently filed for divorce and sought full physical and legal custody of their two children.
The DA’s Office wrote, “Three days before the scheduled Family Court date, Mr. Leung found the victim at church services, and waited until other parishioners left before entering the church in violation of a domestic violence restraining order. Mr. Leung asked the pastor of the church to find the victim and tell her that he would like to speak with her about child custody.”
