Son of Taiwanese celebrities to be released, deported after Delco school shooting threat





During a hearing Monday in federal court in Philadelphia, An-Tso "Edward" Sun – 18-year-old son of the actors Peng Sun and Di Ying – described his March threat to attack Monsignor Bonner and Archbishop Prendergast Catholic High School in Drexel Hill as an immature joke and said he never had any intention of acting upon it.  He apologized for the trouble he had caused his parents, the United States, and his native country.

But U.S. District Judge Nitza Quinones-Alejandro interrupted.

"The word is not trouble for what you've brought to your family," she said. "You have brought them shame, which is an even higher offense."

The "time served" sentence Quinones-Alejandro eventually imposed – with stipulations for the younger Sun's voluntary and immediate deportation – brought to an end a legal drama that has received only moderate attention in this country but has driven sensational, front-page headlines in the island nation for months.

Since his arrest earlier this year, Tawianese news outlets have tracked Sun's parents as they put their film careers on hold and decamped nearly full-time to the United States to be closer to their son at the federal detention center in Philadelphia. Some even reported that the couple had placed homes worth millions of dollars on the market to fund his defense.
