Netizens are expressing anger and sadness in the story of Jung In-yang, a 16-month adoptee who died due to the abuse of wool.
SBS’I want to know that’ broadcasted on the 2nd analyzed the case surrounding Jung In-yang, a 16-month adopted child who left for the sky after 271 days of adoption.
On October 13 last year, Jung In-yang arrived at the emergency room with cardiac arrest. “It was full of blood, wounds, and fractures. One rib was broken more than once, and fractures appeared all over the body. 16 months ago, the rib was broken, it was obvious abuse,” said Nam Gung-in, an emergency medical specialist.
The National Institute of Scientific Investigation also concluded that Jung In-i’s death was’abdominal damage caused by external force’. The already torn ship was shocked once more and caused a rupture of the mesentery.
Nevertheless, the adoptive parents insisted that Jeong In-yi’s death was an accident. The husband and wife insisted, “I played with the first on the sofa and the second fell off.”
The situation is even more unfortunate because it can prevent Jung In-yi’s death. The daycare center teacher and pediatrician Jung In-i attended reported child abuse three times to the police since May of last year, but the police and child protection agencies could not figure this out. Police officers who did not take appropriate action even after being reported faced disciplinary action.
MC Kim Sang-joong ended the broadcast by saying, “I have something I want to say to my child on behalf of those who are immature as a parent and cowardly as an adult. I am the same adult, so I can’t protect it, and I’m sorry for taking care of it too late.”
Netizens who watched the broadcast are reacting such as “I’m like a devil”, “I’m sorry I couldn’t protect you”, “I want a pretty baby like that…”
Meanwhile, as a result of a police investigation, the adoptive parents adopted Jeong In-i in January of last year and continued to abuse them until October. Jang is accused of leaving Jung In alone in his house or car in March to October, leaving him alone in abandonment or neglect, and from June to a habitual assault, leading to death.
