The late 2000s credit crunch ruined a lot of people financially. Jing Hua Wu, an engineer who was terminated from his job at semiconductor company SiPort Inc. and lost the rest of his money on property investments, is just another example. His reaction however was not typical; in 2008 he allegedly took a handgun to the Santa Clara SiPort offices and killed the CEO of the company, Sid Agrawal, vice president of operations, Brian Pugh, and head of human resources Marilyn Lewis after they agreed to meet with him to discuss his employment. SiPort’s top management was effectively wiped out by the incident. Wu was arrested the following day without a struggle.

The Associated Press reports a Silicon Valley engineer was found guilty of first-degree murder Friday for fatally shooting three executives at a semiconductor startup the same day he was fired.
The Nov. 14, 2008, shooting at SiPort Inc. is one of the worst workplace shootings to have taken place in the high tech region south of San Francisco.
A Santa Clara County jury deliberated for a day and half before convicting Jing Hua Wu, 51.
Wu’s lawyer, Tony Serra, had urged the jury to convict his client of manslaughter, which is killing in the heat of passion. During the trial, Wu had claimed he fired the first of six gunshots by accident.
Prosecutors argued that Wu had planned the killings as revenge for being terminated from his job at the Santa Clara company.
The jury rejected the defense’s contention that Wu was too mentally ill to form the intent to kill when he shot CEO Sid Agrawal, office manager Marilyn Lewis and supervisor Brian Pugh.
In the trial’s sanity phase, the same jury will consider whether Wu was too mentally ill when he committed the murders to be held legally responsible for the crimes.
If jurors determine he was insane, Wu would be sent to a state mental hospital until doctors found he had regained his sanity or could be treated as an outpatient, according to the San Jose Mercury News.
If the panel finds he was not insane, Wu would be sentenced to life in prison without parole.

Suspect in triple-slaying owned 19 properties
Demian Bulwa, Chronicle Staff Writer
Published 4:00 am, Wednesday, November 19, 2008
Jing Hua Wu, the engineer who police say fatally shot three executives at a Santa Clara startup company last week just hours after being fired, spent the last few years amassing a large portfolio of investment properties.
According to public records from eight counties in three states, Wu and his wife own at least 19 homes and vacant lots worth more than $2.4 million. One house in Arkansas, which is now being offered for rent by Wu, is in Hot Springs Village, the largest gated community in the nation. It has a screened porch with a golf course view.
But Wu, after his arrest in the Friday slayings of SiPort's chief executive, its human resources manager and its vice president of operations, told the Santa Clara County public defender's office that he could not afford a private attorney, officials said.
While refusing to discuss details, authorities said they are looking into whether Wu's financial situation had been affected by his foray into real estate before the nation's foreclosure crisis. A review of public records does not make clear how much equity the father of three from Mountain View has in the homes or how much debt he is carrying.
On Tuesday, Santa Clara County prosecutors reviewed the police evidence in the case but said they would hold off on filing charges until today. Wu, 47, is scheduled to be arraigned in court this afternoon in San Jose.
Wu declined a request for an interview from jail, and his wife said she did not wish to comment.
Ken Mandel, one of two attorneys with the public defender's office who are representing Wu, declined to comment on the case.
Police said Wu was fired Friday morning from his job as a test engineer at SiPort, a semiconductor firm, then returned to the office on Scott Boulevard later in the day and killed chief executive Sid Agrawal, 56; human resources manager Marilyn Lewis, 67; and Brian Pugh, 47, vice president of operations.
Company officials said Wu had been fired for poor performance but declined to elaborate. He was arrested Saturday.
Records show that Wu and his wife, Jie Zheng Wu, went on a property-buying spree starting in 2004.
From June to October 2005, they bought two rental homes and five vacant lots for $526,000 in Hot Springs Village, a retirement community of nearly 15,000 people and nine golf courses. They took out at least $330,000 in bank loans to pay for the properties, records show.
The couple also bought at least five homes and six lots in Washington north of Portland, in the communities of Anderson Island, Vancouver and Ocean Shores. In California, they bought a modest home in Elk Grove (Sacramento County) and a bare lot near Lake Shastina in Siskiyou County.
There are few signs of financial strain in the records, and the couple paid property taxes on two Washington lots as recently as Nov. 7. The cost was $241.
Wu and his wife also sold a lot in Hot Springs Village in May of this year for $41,000 and a home in Washington for $225,000 last month.
The couple also own the home in Mountain View where they were living.
Dwight Turner, who with his wife owns the rental company, said property values have held firm in Hot Springs Village despite the national downturn. He said Wu, like a number of other out-of-state investors, had probably fared well.
