Decision on Detention of 'JMS No. 2' on 17th... "Involvement and Aiding in Jeong Myeong-seok Sexual Assault Allegations"

The decision on whether to detain Jung Joeun (real name Kim Jiseon), known as the second-in-command of the Christian Gospel Mission (hereafter JMS), will be made on the 17th at the Daejeon District Court.

The Daejeon District Court will conduct a pre-arrest suspect interrogation (warrant hearing) for Kim on that day.

Kim is suspected of participating in (luring) or aiding the sexual assault crimes committed by JMS founder Jung Myungseok against female followers.

Known as the ‘successor’ to Founder Jung, Kim has been active in major JMS branch churches and has denied allegations related to Jung’s sexual assault crimes.

Kim claims that she “prevented women from approaching within a 3-meter radius of the teacher (Founder Jung).”

However, the victims have stated in media interviews that the person who brought them to Founder Jung was a close aide of Kim, and they believe Kim was aware of Jung’s sexual assault acts.

Meanwhile, on the same day, the Daejeon District Court will also conduct pre-arrest suspect interrogations regarding charges of aiding and abetting sexual molestation against five accomplices in addition to Kim.
