Alex Shorey

Alex Shorey is an Australian exchange student who became the victim in a high-profile attempted murder case in Taiwan. In early 2024, shortly after the suspicious death of a British national, Shorey was poisoned with rat poison by a Taiwanese woman named Yang, who had developed an unhealthy attachment to him. The incident left him in intensive care and prompted significant media attention as it unfolded. Following his recovery, Shorey returned to Australia, while Yang faced charges for her actions.
