Jeong Myeong-seok, Goal of Assaulting 10,000 People... Clearly Exceeded
Professor Kim Dohyung of Dankook University Claims
"Minimum Prison Sentence Should Be 20 Years"
There are claims that the number of victims sexually assaulted by Jeong Myeong-seok of the Christian Gospel Mission (JMS) exceeds 10,000.
On the 14th, Kim Do-hyung, a professor at Dankook University and representative of the JMS opposition group 'Exodus,' appeared on YTN Radio's 'Issue & People' and speculated that the scale of sexual assault victims "would exceed 10,000."
Professor Kim said, "Jeong Myeong-seok used to say, 'My earthly goal is to make 10,000 people heavenly lovers through sexual salvation.' In other words, he himself said that his goal was to sexually assault 10,000 people. Based on observations of his behavior, he was solely devoted to sexual assault, so I think he may have exceeded his goal."
He continued, "Those who have come forward to file complaints now are just a handful of sand on a beach," adding, "Because sexual assault itself is carried out secretly, I think it is impossible for a third party to grasp the full extent."
When asked whether he trusts the prosecution's investigation and the court trial regarding Jeong Myeong-seok, Professor Kim clearly stated, "It is an issue to be watched closely." Previously, it was revealed that JMS followers were positioned throughout society supporting Jeong Myeong-seok.
Professor Kim emphasized, "(Jeong Myeong-seok) was sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexually assaulting four women in the past. The victims who filed complaints this time include two foreigners, but the number of offenses exceeds 20. This time, the sentence should be at least 20 years," expressing a sincere hope that "our society no longer imposes lenient punishments for sex crimes."
He also spoke about an incident where JMS threatened him by harming his father, saying, "Some of the terrorists were caught and sentenced to 4 to 5 years in prison. Among those not caught at the time were an elementary school teacher and a retired professional baseball player. They avoided punishment due to insufficient evidence, and now the statute of limitations has expired, which is deeply regrettable," expressing his indignation.
