Nu Jenny Dang, a 60-year-old Vietnamese immigrant and long-time Lake Mary resident, was shot and killed on September 15, 2015, while working at her family’s dry cleaning business, Lake Mary Cleaners, in Lake Mary, Florida.

Luciano reportedly stole cash from the register and fled in Dang’s car; he was later found in Kissimmee with her vehicle and confessed to the killing, saying he had bought the gun intending to kill himself but instead shot Dang. He was indicted on charges including premeditated first-degree murder, robbery, kidnapping, and burglary. Court proceedings resulted in a guilty plea to avoid the death penalty and a life-without-parole sentence in May 2016. Dang’s family described profound grief and the void her death left, with her daughter noting the pain of planning a wedding without her mother.
