Trans NYT exec threatened to kill wife, scared their kids with chilling book before his in-laws shot him dead: docs
The trans New York Times executive allegedly executed by his elderly in-laws in a California parking lot previously threatened to murder his wife and her parents — and chillingly gave his children a book about a young girl whose mom died, according to court documents.
Jonathan McKinsey, 40, was allegedly gunned down by Shouyong Zhang, 77, and Shili Chen, 77, in the parking area at Dublin Sports Grounds in Dublin on Saturday afternoon, with witnesses describing how the pair took turns riddling his body with bullets.
“During our marriage, the children and I learned to avoid provoking Jonathan lest he became angry. In my experience, appearing agreeable or happy around him was sometimes a means of avoiding his anger,” McKinsey’s wife, Candice Jang, said in an August custody filing obtained by the California Post. The filing was first reported on by The Mercury News.
