“At least, he said he didn’t do that with the intention of losing his life. I am reflecting on a lot.”
This is the feeling of wool that Jung In, who died from abuse and assistance, told the lawyer of her adoptive parents in a phone call with JoongAng Ilbo on the 7th. On the morning of that day, the lawyer interviewed the mother-in-law of wool, 34, in the southern Seoul detention center. The attorney carefully introduced his current situation with the aim of “showing an emotionally unstable appearance in the detention center.”

The prosecution applied the charges of child abuse and lethality to Jang and handed it over to trial. The point of the prosecution is that the victim was killed by abdominal damage, such as cutting the pancreas and causing bleeding in the abdominal cavity by applying strong blunt force to Jung In-i’s back in an “unknown method” around October 13 last year. However, only Jang knows the truth about what kind of violence actually took place.
“It’s never true that you jumped off the sofa and shocked you.”
Immediately after meeting Mr. Jang, the lawyer said, “There are reports and suspicions that you jumped off the sofa and shocked you or applied that amount of force, but you are denying that there is absolutely no such fact.” Previously, the National Institute of Scientific Investigation, who had previously autopsied Jeong In-i, revealed’abdominal damage caused by external force’.
Jang said to the lawyer that day, “It wasn’t enough to break my bones, but I’ve hit Jung In.” The lawyer said, “It is Yangmo’s position that he did not do that with the intention of killing at least Jeong In-yi. However, I am continuing to think about whether my bones were broken because I hit them, and I am reflecting on them.”

“It will be difficult to deny the fact that the shock was applied”
However, on the day Jung In-yi died, the situation was found in the prosecution’s investigation, etc., when neighbors heard the sound of objects falling on the floor loudly in Jung In-i’s house. “It is difficult to quantify how much force is applied, but it is difficult to quantify how much force is applied, but that degree (injury of Jung In-i) can result in that degree (injury of Jeong In-i). “It will be difficult to deny that.”
According to the prosecution, Jung In-yi’s adoptive parents are currently acknowledging allegations with direct evidence (such as CCTV footage), such as the abuse of pushing a stroller into an elevator wall in August last year. However, it is said that most of the charges and suspicions are denied about what happened in the house on the day of death.

“I didn’t adopt it for a loan.”
The Jang couple’s lawyers denied any suspicions that they were adopted for a loan. The lawyer said, “There are only a few things that we can say for sure, but one of them is this suspicion.” Regarding the controversy over Jang’s psychiatric treatment history, the lawyer side drew a line that it would not reflect Jang’s psychology or medical history in the defense. The first trial of this case will be held on the 13th.
