The district attorney's office said they found his wife's body in the bedroom "directly behind" where Chen had been kneeling.

"Officers located the victim deceased on the floor. She had severe blunt force injuries to her head," they said.

"Chen’s right hand was extremely swollen and purple. He had blood on his clothing, legs, arms, and hands and scratches on his arm."

Chen and Yu bought a home at 714 Valley Way in April last year for $2.05 million (£1.57 million), according to property records.

Google spokesperson Bailey Tomson told The New York Post in a statement: "We are shocked and deeply saddened by what has happened to Xuanyi.

According to his Linkedin, Chen worked on the YouTube shorts algorithm for Google, while Yu's page says she was a software engineer.

Both of them studied in China at Tsinghua University and at the University of California San Diego.

Google CEO Sundar Pichai is warning his employees to brace themselves for more layoffs this year as the company reallocates resources toward artificial intelligence.

Pichai, who is also CEO of Google's parent company Alphabet, told employees this month that the tech giant would "remove layers [of its workforce]" this year to free up funds for "investing in… [the company's] big priorities" in a memo sent to employees, a Google representative confirmed to CBS MoneyWatch.

Several tech companies, including Microsoft and Samsung, are developing their own AI models as investor excitement about the new technology mounts. Experts predict the industry could be worth more than $2 trillion in 2032, a report from research firm Spherical Insights & Consulting shows.

Last year, Google eliminated more than 12,000 roles in its hardware, shopping, core engineering, policy and ad sales teams. Its layoffs have carried into the new year, with Google cutting hundreds of people in its hardware, voice assistance and engineering divisions earlier this month.

Big tech boom or bust? Experts see signs of strength after wave of layoffs​

Even as more job cuts await, some analysts see the beginnings of a bull market in the coming season of earnings reports
Edward Helmore

Will 2024 be a boom or a bust for big tech? By one estimate, there have been more than 7,500 layoffs in the sector since the start of the year – a dispersal of pink slips that many hoped would have ceased after the deep job cuts of 2023.

However, as the US’s big tech earnings season gets under way this week, some analysts are predicting strong numbers. This batch of quarterly financial results may show that the industry has cleared out its pandemic-era overhiring and reorganised itself around cloud computing and AI - necessitating cuts in sectors with less rosy prospects. Analysts keen on AI say we are at the start of a tech bull market.

Since the start of the year, Google has laid off more than a thousand employees across hardware, ad sales, search, shopping, maps, policy, core engineering, Google Assistant and YouTube. The cuts are slight compared to last January, when the Google chief executive, Sundar Pichai, announced a 12,000-worker layoff, but Pichai has warned of more cuts to come.

In an internal memo last week, he told employees that Alphabet was “removing layers to simplify execution and drive velocity in some areas”.

“We have ambitious goals and will be investing in our big priorities this year,” Pichai said in the memo, obtained by the Verge.

“The reality is that to create the capacity for this investment, we have to make tough choices.” But the cuts, he added, would not be “at the scale of last year’s reductions, and will not touch every team”.


The Alphabet Workers Union called the layoffs “needless” in a Wednesday post on X (formerly Twitter).

Amazon has also announced a fresh round of job cuts affecting hundreds of employees from its Prime Video and Amazon MGM studios divisions - part of a pullback from an overspend on entertainment and a refocus on core priorities such as online shopping logistics and new ones such as AI.

At Meta, where more than 20,000 jobs were cut last year, the excision of departments appears to have slowed but not stopped. Instagram eliminated a layer of management in mid-January, cutting 60 technical program managers. Last year it said it would add workers to support “priority areas” and shift the workforce composition to include more “higher-cost technical roles”.

And that may be the true story of tech in 2024. If Wedbush analyst Dan Ives is correct, job cuts are mostly done, and earnings season is going to be an occasion to “break out the popcorn”.

she was obviously having an affair with the husbands friend and got found out. How else would the friend be so "concerned" and gave a welfare call to the police just because his friend (the husband) was not answering his call or opening the door.
