A Taiwanese woman named Yang Jinping has been sentenced to 11 years and two months in prison for attempting to murder Brisbane exchange student Alex Shorey in 2023. The incident occurred during Shorey's stay in Taiwan on an exchange program at Tamkang University. Prosecutors allege that Yang poisoned Shorey with superwarfarin after he decided to shorten his time in Taiwan. She reportedly continued administering the poison through food and drinks, even while Shorey was hospitalized. Shorey was repeatedly hospitalized in 2023 and eventually medically evacuated to Australia, where he recovered. His family raised over $200,000 to cover the costs of his evacuation. Shorey’s father stated that his son fully recovered and thanked those who aided in bringing him home.
