The chief of the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission's anti-corruption bureau, who oversaw the investigation into first lady Kim Keon-hee regarding her acceptance of a luxury handbag, was found dead in his apartment. The person in question was said to have expressed sentiments of shame and despair following pressure to close the case on the first lady this past June.
The bureau chief, surnamed Kim, was discovered by one of his subordinates in his apartment on Thursday at around 9:30 pm. The bureau employee went to Kim's apartment in Sejong's Jungchon neighborhood after Kim did not show up to work or answer his phone for several days. The commission staffer discovered Kim dead shortly after arrival.
"I disagreed, but couldn't disobey"
The deceased supervised the administrative side of investigations into various forms of corruption. He led the investigations into the first lady over the Dior bag and into Democratic Party leader Lee Jae-myung's use of a helicopter airlift after being stabbed.
Regarding political pressure to close the case on the first lady, Kim told people around him that the case was hard for him as it went against his conscience, according to the Hankyoreh's investigative reporting. Instead of closing the case, Kim reportedly recommended that the case be passed on to another investigative authority. Police discovered a short suicide note in Kim's apartment. Authorities have not publicized the exact content of the note, but it reportedly reveals Kim's internal struggle.
In a phone call with the Hankyoreh, a former acquaintance who claims to have been in regular contact with Kim said, "Kim sent me a text on Aug. 6 saying, 'I'm sorry for disappointing you recently. I'm psychologically struggling.' I told him, 'Just hang in there, and you'll get your chance to set things right.'" The acquaintance let out a long sigh during the call.
"On June 27, Kim called me after he'd had a few drinks saying, 'The brass in the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission pressured me to close the case on the first lady,'" the acquaintance added.
"He told me, 'I disagreed, but I couldn't disobey. This is hard,'" the acquaintance continued.
"I'm sharing these texts and conversations because Kim is being portrayed as having committed suicide simply because he found his job difficult, and I'd like to set that straight. I met him several years ago, when I was assigned to a job that put me in contact with the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, and we became close," the acquaintance added.
On June 9, the agency declared that first lady Kim Keon-hee had not violated the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act by accepting a luxury handbag, and that it was closing the investigation into her actions. Chung Seung-yun, the vice chairperson for anti-corruption at the commission, was Kim's supervisor. When announcing the results of the investigation into the first lady, Chung said that "the Improper Solicitation and Graft Act does not contain any regulations regarding the behavior of the spouse of a public official, which is why the case was closed."
Regarding this decision, Choi Jeong-muk, a non-standing commissioner who opposed closing the case, said, "There was plenty of room for legal debate, and a high-profile case of corruption was just brushed aside as 'no violation.' I will take responsibility for the case being closed." Choi later resigned.
Democratic Party lawmaker and spokesperson Noh Jong-myun issued a written statement saying, "We mourn the loss of a civil servant who worked for the Anti-Corruption and Civil Rights Commission, and vow that the Democratic Party will get to the bottom of what happened."
"Anybody who is even partially responsible for the death of Kim should come forward, tell the truth, and apologize."

Making a simpler version for dramatards. The former President of Argentina, Alberto Fernández (2019-2023) was being investigated for corruption, which lead to the police getting his phone and phones or people close to him. They found whatsapp chats revealing he beat up his former wife and then First Lady Fabiola Yáñez. She married him in 2019 and divorced him last year and currently lives in Spain. Pic related is her and here are some chat transcripts.
Can someone ping moid moment?
After the chats got leaked she officially denounced him to the police. During the last year of his presidency before the divorce she was missing from the public, and she showed up at a party with an eyepatch one.
Also, Argentina had one of the most draconian Covid shutdowns during 2020, but apparently President Fernández decided to party with actresses and whores, leaked videos he recorded from that time also surfaced.

Tl;dr: 45% of zoom zooms have never asked a girl out. Ages between 18-25. The only thing that probably killed off more bloodlines that modern day society in a generation is Russian wars or genocides through history.
Turns out 99% of humans don't have any plan once you take out the "have to" standards that cover every single day of a person's life.
Being a virgin continues to lose its power as an insult. Only the top 10% of humans can survive in a society built for the 10% of humans.
Feminism killed humanity, and not even the don't beat your wife or stop raping us parts.
Every space is a safe space where women shouldn't be asked out by creeps, feminism killed humanity.
Sad part is it will be another 3-4 generations before the consequences get bad enough that society does anything about it.
Normalize men being interested in women.

His name was Danilo Santos Romano, age 35.
The black boxes were recovered. Main hypothesis for the cause of the crash is ice formation on the wings but it's still early to determine, the CENIPA has opened an investigation. No recorded emergency calls between the pilots and the control tower.

Police in Austria have questioned three teenagers suspected of plotting a suicide attack at a Taylor Swift show, sparking renewed concerns over the indoctrination of young people online.
Foreign intelligence agencies helped authorities uncover the alleged scheme, according to the country's Interior Minister Gerhard Karner. A source familiar told CNN that the US issued a warning to authorities in Vienna.
Organizers canceled three concerts, which were scheduled to take place in the European capital from Thursday to Saturday. CNN has reached out to Swift's representatives for comment.
Investigators unearthed a stockpile of chemicals, explosive devices, detonators and 21,000 euros in counterfeit cash at the home of the main suspect, a 19-year-old ISIS sympathizer who had been radicalized online, according to authorities.
The young man – who was arrested Wednesday morning in the eastern town of Ternitz – planned to kill himself and "a large number of people," according to the head of the domestic intelligence agency, Omar Haijawi-Pirchner.
"He said he intended to carry out an attack using explosives and knives," Haijawi-Pirchner told reporters in Vienna on Thursday. "His aim was to kill himself and a large number of people during the concert, either today or tomorrow."
Two other suspects were detained, aged 17 and 15. The 17-year-old worked for a facilities company that would have provided services at the concert venue. He was near the stadium when he was arrested and had recently broken up with his girlfriend, according to Haijwai-Pirchner.
Little has been revealed about the 15-year-old. Prosecutors will decide later if he was a witness or directly involved in the alleged plot.
The three are all Austrian-born with either Turkish, North Macedonian or Croatian backgrounds.
The trio were in contact with other individuals who knew about the plan, said the country's director general for public security, Franz Ruf. No one else is being sought in direct connection with the plot, Ruf added.
The cancellations of the Swift concert triggered an outpouring of heartbreak, grief and relief among Swifties hoping to attend the record-breaking Eras Tour in Vienna. Hailed as a cultural phenomenon, the scale, influence and intricacy of Swift's musical voyage have made headlines for boosting the economies of the cities she visits.
The show-stopping tour began in Glendale, Arizona in March 2023, and has been extended several times. Vienna was scheduled to be the penultimate venue of the European leg, with Swift set to play five nights at London's Wembley Stadium over the next two weeks, before moving on to Canada in November and December.
London Mayor Sadiq Khan said the city would "carry on" with the scheduled events, telling Sky News: "I'm sure Vienna has got its own reasons to cancel the Taylor Swift concerts, we're going to carry on, working closely with police (and) ensuring that the Taylor Swift concerts can take place in London safely."
A rush of excitement descended on the Austrian capital in the days leading up to the three-day fest, according to locals, with Swifties filling the cobbled streets and spontaneously breaking out into song.
Several fans who were planning to attend shows in Vienna told CNN they participated in a series of events Thursday that were staged in a community-led effort to rekindle the spirit and energy of the tour.
Footage has emerged of Swifties serenading each another at local squares in Vienna and trading personalized friendship bracelets – a concert tradition inspired by the lyrics on Swift's song "You're on Your Own, Kid" from her 10th studio album "Midnights."
Julia Schnizlein, a pastor at the Lutheran City Church, told CNN that she bought tickets as a Christmas gift for her 14-year-old daughter, Leni, who was left heartbroken on Wednesday.
"We were really looking forward to the concert and have met a lot of fans over the last few days," the 45-year-old said. "The whole city was full of happy, peaceful people exchanging bracelets and spontaneously singing together."
Instead, the pastor opened the doors of her church to host a Swift-themed singalong for fans. Social media videos show people bopping their heads to melodies of some of the Grammy-winning artist's greatest hits – including "Blank Space" and "Style" – as music blares from the speakers of the hall, illuminated by the glow of yellow candles.
"People were crying, holding hands, singing along softly," said Kristi Hovington, 46, who wandered into the chapel after hearing tunes from the Eras Tour setlist. "It was such a beautiful moment, a pocket of beauty amidst the disappointment and anger."
The school librarian journeyed from Barcelona, Spain, to attend the tour with her 14-year-old daughter, Esme, who had dreamed of seeing Swift live in concert. "She cried for an hour, at least; this was her dream, to see Taylor."
Elsewhere in the capital, dozens of fans congregated at the Stephansplatz, a central square, to belt out an array of Swift songs. One participant, Elie Fares, said he was "devastated" for fans who had lost their chance to see the US pop star on tour.
"I just walked right over and basked in the camaraderie of it all, the way it exuded a lot of joie de vivre, a giant middle finger to all of those who wanted the squash that joy and instil fear," added the 34-year-old physician, who has attended shows in the US and Europe.
"Swifties have shown time and time again that they are a formidable community among music fans," he told CNN on Thursday. "In the grand scheme of what's happening around the world today, we are all aware of where a concert cancellation falls, but that doesn't mean we can't be supportive of each other."
Neurodivergent's Note : Y'all b-words almost got Ariana Grande'd lmao. Better security for Swift then Trump I suppose.
