Another Fiction in the Forensic Chief's Interview Regarding the Moon Se-gwang Assassination Incident

No translation in your language yet — showing the English version

‌Below is the forensic chief's interview claiming that Park Jong-gyu shot Jang Bong-hwa by mistake.
*The prosecution's indictment also records Moon Se-gwang as the killer of Ms. Jang Bong-hwa
Despite numerous suspicions, Chief Lee revealed that he falsified the reports sent to the Blue House and the prosecution's indictment. In the indictment, it was written that Moon Se-gwang killed not only First Lady Yuk not only but also Ms. Jang Bong-hwa, who was part of the choir and became a victim of the tragedy.
In the case of Ms. Jang Bong-hwa, the investigative authorities had even announced immediately after the incident that she died due to an accidental discharge by Presidential Security Chief Park Jong-gyu, yet the prosecution's indictment recorded it as Moon Se-gwang's killing. Chief Lee explained the reason as follows:
"If the indictment had stated that Ms. Jang Bong-hwa was killed by the accidental discharge of Security Chief Park Jong-gyu, the prosecution would have had to summon Park to take a statement and decide whether to indict or not. And as the Security Chief, if it were determined that he shot Ms. Jang Bong-hwa during the presidential security process, it would constitute professional negligence resulting in death... However, from the indictment sent by the police, the killer of First Lady Yuk and Ms. Jang Bong-hwa was only Moon Se-gwang. No, from the very beginning, Security Chief Park Jong-gyu was made to be unrelated to this case. In the end, this case was scripted..."
Regarding the reason for drafting such a false indictment, Chief Lee said, "I had to do it to make a living... and that's not all. If I had disclosed this at the time, we all would have died."
Regarding the background of this incident, Chief Lee also said, "At that time, 40 to 50 police officers were unfairly dismissed due to this incident. They were truly sacrificed unfairly. Why should the police be sacrificed? Why should the police lose their heads in our internal power struggles?" interpreting this incident as a product of internal strife within the Park Chung-hee regime.
Chief Lee concluded the interview by emphasizing the need for 'police neutrality,' saying, "I am a person who spent my whole life serving as a maid to power under an immoral regime. Those regimes also caused the death of First Lady Yuk. I hope there will be no more unfortunate incidents."

The problem is...

  1. Park Jong-gyu never fired a shot at all at that time.
  2. On August 23, 1974, the Dong-A Ilbo had already reported that the late Ms. Jang Bong-hwa died after being shot by a security guard.
    “Ballistic verification results revealed: Ms. Jang Bong-hwa hit by accidental discharge from security guard”

    Dong-A Ilbo, celebrating its 100th anniversary, reveals the ‘Dong-A Digital Archive’ containing all articles and page PDFs since its inaugural issue.
  3. By the time the prosecution was drafting the indictment, it was already public knowledge that the late Ms. Jang Bong-hwa died from a security guard's bullet.
    "The prosecution manipulated the indictment to hide the fact that Park Jong-gyu fired, even though he didn't fire at all" ???
    The fact that Kim Sa-bok, the owner of the vehicle Moon Se-gwang arrived in, was also reported in the news, yet they claimed they couldn't find the owner due to fake license plates and that he was an accomplice!
    In a situation where it is questionable whether he even remembers correctly,
    on what grounds should we trust the testimony of this forensic chief?
