DENVER (CBS4) — Jenny Nguyen, 27, was advised in Denver court Sunday of 1st Degree Murder charges in the death of Jamal Thompson, 26. Thompson was found by police in a wrecked car just after midnight Saturday. He had been shot in the neck.
Thompson died after he was taken to Denver Health Medical Center.
A United States Post Office spokesman confirmed Monday that both Denver residents are currently employed by the USPS and work at different locations.
Paramedics and Denver Police Department officers were dispatched to the intersection of 54th Avenue and Yampa Street at 12:10 a.m. Saturday. The call came into 9-1-1 as a vehicle crash with possible shots fired, according to arrest documents obtained by CBS4.
Officers arrived and found a white Ford Fusion that had rolled into a field at that intersection. The man inside the vehicle was slumped over both seats and bleeding from a neck wound. He “had been thrown about the interior of the vehicle,” per police.
Police also found Nguyen’s driver’s license on the passenger seat of the car.
Later, investigators found 9mm shell casings on 54th Avenue, as well as a homeowner there who had encountered an angry Asian-American woman driving a white car a half hour earlier. He identified Nguyen as that driver when police showed him the picture on her drivers license.
Acting on a tip from the victim’s mother, investigators and a SWAT team executed a search warrant late Saturday morning at Nguyen’s residence near 54th Avenue and Tower Road.
The victim’s mother told police her son and Nguyen had been in an on-again, off-again relationship.
Nguyen was taken to police headquarters for a formal interviews, according to the police documents. When asked several times about her involvement in the shooting, Nguyen hung her head, refused to answer, and began to cry.
Officers searching her home found a disassembled 9mm handgun in a bedroom heater vent. The barrel was missing. Recordings from the time of the shooting had also been deleted from her home’s video surveillance system.
The coroner’s office told investigators that the condition of Thompson’s skin on his left hand, left face and chin suggested he had been shot at close range.
The Denver Office of the Medical Examiner released Thompson’s identity Monday afternoon.
Maybe dating a co-worker is not a good idea...They both worked for Post Office...
Hate crime charge?...A black guy killed by an Asian woman? I don't think so...I don't think she killed him because of his skin color...I don't support "hate crime" laws in any case...
Her picture is on the CBS Denver Website...Guilty or not guilty based on her looks?
Going postal.
BUT....she was wearing her Wuhan mask.....
Hate Crime laws are B/S. Murder IS a hate crime.
Jenny, Jenny, you’re the girl for me
For a good time, call . . .
Pimp/Ho relationship gone bad? Not that they are ever all that good.
Nguyen translates to Newman.
Modern day version of “Going Postal”?
It’s pronounced “Wynn”
So it sounds like she shots him elsewhere - then drove his car to the field and let it go.... but left her drivers license on the front seat?!
And thanks to some awesome detective work by the police they were able to solve the crime.
There are some people you just kind of don’t trust.
She does NOT set off any alarms for me.
Not even a tiny bit.
“Me kill you long time.”

Jenny Jenny I got your number...
Nguyen translates to Newman.

It is a common Vietnamese last name...If you go down to Orange County, California, you will find many people with that last name...
I am sure that there are many ladies with name “Jenny Nguyen” in United States...
Newman was the creepy postal character on the Seinfeld show. I think that’s what the Newman reference was about.

Maybe her case will be closely watched by a producer for 48 HOURS (CBS)...
I have not heard of too many Asian female killers...
She was in an interracial relationship...Victim is a black guy...
She will be lonely in prison...She will be serving time in Colorado...She might end up being the only Asian inmate in the women’s prison...My guess is that Latinas make up the largest population in Colorado’s female prison...Followed by whites...
Hate is a Motive, it isn’t a Crime.
Hate Crime Laws are blatantly unconstitutional.
And thanks to some awesome detective work by the police they were able to solve the crime.

First degree murder charge? I guess that means premeditation...
