Triple Homicide Suspect Arrested at Commerce Casino in California.

Choi A man suspected of a brutal stabbing and charged with the murder of three people inside a New Jersey home was arrested during a 200/400 limit poker game at the Commerce casino in California. Police connected the man to the crime scene via a diary kept by one of his alleged victims.

The diary kept by Han Il Kim led police to Kang Hyuk Choi, by allegedly making it apparent that during his last days of life, Choi was in the house with Kim, his mother and his uncle. The two men, Kim, 27, and Choi quarreled over money according to reports.

Prosecutors say Choi used a knife to stab Kim a number of times at Kim’s home in Tenafly New York. Tenafly is about 10 miles North of Midtown Manhattan.

Following the triple murder, Choi a 32 year old male from Valley Stream New York allegedly left the scene of the murders in a BMW belonging to Han Il Kim. He then, according to reports, caught a flight to California carrying more than $30,000 in cash, and some credit cards registered in Han Kim’s name. Choi was then treated in a California hospital for injuries he is alleged to have suffered during the victims fight for their lives.

Bergen County prosecutor Frank Puccio said Kim’s body was found hidden in the closet of his bedroom. His bed was filled with bed sheets and clothing to make it appear as if someone was asleep in it. Hours later, allegedly Choi was still in the house, and reports say he stabbed Yoo Bok Kim as she entered the room to check on her son.
Kim’s uncle, Doo Soo Seo was also murdered, at the age of 70.

Choi was arrested while carrying $88,000 in cash, chips from a casino, and was still carrying the credit cards allegedly taken from the Kim residence following the murders, all with Han Il Kim’s name on them. In addition to those cards, Choi had receipts from purchases made with other people’s credit cards.

Puccio believes that Choi is the only suspect in this brutal stabbing murder of a family in New York “We’re convinced that Mr. Choi is the sole actor. In terms of looking for other suspects, the case is closed,” Puccio said. -Associated Press
