Kathy Vu TikTok Update
Kathy Vu was arrested in March 2023 in connection with the murder of two men and charged with “attempting to destroy evidence by purchasing tools to clean up the crime scene,” according to VnExpress International. The 23-year-old is currently under house arrest, and both her boyfriend and his friend face charges of premeditated murder.
Although Vu has not been charged with participating in the murder, she is suspected of helping clean up. Vu purchased Hefty trash bags, Clorox Bleach spray, hydrogen peroxide spray, and hydrogen peroxide from a nearby HEB on the evening of the murder, according to police records obtained by @kathyvuarchives.
Authorities also discovered suspicious communications sent that day between Polie and Kathy. In the first, Kathy asked Polie to lock her garage. She later texted him to say, “Everything is in my trunk.” He allegedly cleaned up evidence at the scene.
It all started on January 27, 2023, when a neighbor reported hearing the resident’s dog howling incessantly and called Houston Police to the home to do a welfare check. The neighbor also observed the homeowner leaving his car running in the garage, and when they looked through the window, they saw blood inside the home.
Dana Ryssdal, 35, was found dead inside the home when police arrived, along with “several cardboard boxes filled with marijuana that were wrapped in sealed paper,” according to Click2Houston. Before officials discovered that Ryssdal and his business partner were “commercial marijuana growers operating a legal retail establishment in southern Oregon” who were owed money by Phan, it was assumed that Ryssdal had been robbed.
Kathy was charged with tampering with evidence. Her bail was set at $40,000.
TikTok influencer Coby DuBose’s attorney maintains that his client did not lure anyone into her apartment. He added that she was not involved and has not been charged with murder. To clarify, Coby said that video footage shows Kathy not actively cleaning up the crime scene and blamed the two attackers.
Who is Kathy Vu’s TikTok boyfriend?
Kathy Vu’s boyfriend on TikTok is named Polie Phan. Polie is believed to be 26 years old.
The TikTok star has mentioned her boyfriend several times. She once shared on her FB Reel that Polie has helped raise her standards in many ways. For example, he helps her carry her luggage, always agrees to impromptu plans, is very open to her interests, and describes him as a “thoughtful and practical gift giver, and attentive to her interests.”
Additionally, Kathy also showed off the gifts she received from her boyfriend to her followers.
Speaking about her past relationships, Kathy shared that she attracted “homeless men” when she presented herself as an independent and self-sufficient woman.
Polie and his friend Jaiden Nguyen fled to Vietnam disguised as tourists and are wanted in the United States for murder. Both were charged with a double murder in Houston, Texas, in January.
On June 20, after two months of searching across several provinces, detectives located a man who appeared to be Polie Phan. Using a false identity, the suspect was residing in a house in District 10, Ho Chi Minh City. He was rarely home, instead preferring to frequent gyms, bars and clubs. After identifying the man as Polie Phan, a team of detectives closely monitored all activities in and around his house, which they believed was the couple’s hideout.
However, investigators were unable to locate Jaiden Nguyen during the investigation. Polie often walked home alone and was alert and aware of his surroundings.
Polie revealed that upon entering Vietnam, he and Jaiden Nguyen went their separate ways and cut off all communication to avoid revealing their whereabouts. During their time in Vietnam, the duo received financial support from associates in the United States.
