Oberlin College摄影教授夫妇在家中遭枪杀：31岁儿子被控谋杀、保释金300万美元
俄亥俄州洛雷恩县（Lorain County）Oberlin 市警方说，Oberlin College 摄影教授 Pipo Nguyen-Duy 与妻子 Tran Thi Phong 10月28日在家中被发现时已经身亡，两人均死于枪伤。警方确认，两名死者是嫌疑人的父亲与继母。嫌疑人是教授31岁的儿子 Daniel Jones，又名 Asia Nguyen-Duy，来自 Oregon 州，已被控谋杀、重罪袭击与篡改证据等罪名。
据警方通报，10月28日上午约9时，警员先到一处停车区域协助消防人员处理一起车辆火情，之后试图找到车主 Jones、确认其安危，并在没有发生冲突的情况下将其拘押。
当天上午稍晚，警方对 Nguyen-Duy 夫妇位于 South Pleasant Street 33号的住宅进行安危检查，破门后发现两人的遗体，身上有枪伤。警方尚未公布作案动机，涉案枪支的情况也没有公开说明。
法庭将 Jones 的保释金定为300万美元。他目前关押在 Lorain County 监狱，案件将移交该县普通诉讼法院，由大陪审团审议是否正式起诉。检方在法庭上称，Jones 曾向警方作出承认杀人的陈述；这些指控仍待法庭审理，他在被定罪前依法被推定无罪。
Pipo Nguyen-Duy 现年64岁，是 Oberlin College 工作室艺术系主任，也是知名的美术摄影师。他1975年作为政治难民从越南来到美国，1980年代曾出家为佛教僧侣，之后走上艺术与摄影之路。他2011年获得古根海姆奖金（Guggenheim Fellowship），此前还获得过美国摄影学院全国研究生奖金与俄亥俄州艺术委员会的三项个人艺术家奖金，并因教学投入多次推迟退休。
他的妻子 Tran Thi Phong 现年56岁。Oberlin College 已设立纪念页面，供师生与亲友留言悼念 Nguyen-Duy。
Oberlin College Photography Professor and Wife Found Shot Dead at Home: Son, 31, Charged With Murder and Held on $3 Million Bond
Police in Oberlin, in Lorain County, Ohio, say Oberlin College photography professor Pipo Nguyen-Duy and his wife, Tran Thi Phong, were found dead of gunshot wounds at their home on October 28. Police confirmed the victims were the father and stepmother of the suspect, the professor's 31-year-old son, Daniel Jones, also known as Asia Nguyen-Duy, of Oregon, who has been charged with murder, felonious assault and tampering with evidence.
According to police, officers first responded at about 9 a.m. on October 28 to assist firefighters with a vehicle fire, then tried to locate the vehicle's owner, Jones, to check on his welfare, and took him into custody without incident.
Later that morning, officers performed a welfare check at the couple's home at 33 South Pleasant Street and found both of them dead of gunshot wounds. Police have not released a motive, and the weapon has not been publicly accounted for.
A court set Jones's bond at $3 million. He is being held in the Lorain County jail, and the case will go before a county grand jury. Prosecutors told the court Jones had made statements admitting the killings to police; the charges remain allegations to be tested in court, and he is presumed innocent unless convicted.
Pipo Nguyen-Duy, 64, chaired the studio art department at Oberlin College and was an acclaimed fine art photographer. He came to the United States from Vietnam as a political refugee in 1975, spent time in the 1980s as a Buddhist monk, and then began his career in art and photography. He received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2011, an American Photography Institute national graduate fellowship and three Individual Artist Fellowship grants from the Ohio Arts Council, and had repeatedly postponed retirement out of commitment to his students.
His wife, Tran Thi Phong, was 56. Oberlin College has created a memorial page where well-wishers can share words and memories of Nguyen-Duy.
