Lai Qingde's attempt to persecute Ko Wen-chieh backfired? The prosecutorial and investigative authorities in Taiwan, acting under Lai's instigation, tried to threaten Ko Wen-chieh with "indecent photos" to force him to admit guilt. However, upon examination by the judge, it was found that the so-called "indecent photos" involving Ko Wen-chieh were merely his external hard drive storing past videos of several female celebrities showing everything, and not videos of Ko Wen-chieh having affairs with other women. Domestic public opinion harshly criticized Lai Qingde and the Taipei District Prosecutors' Office for being "disgusting and baseless." It was stated that "Ko Paojun (Ko Wen-chieh) looking at the nude photo collections of female celebrities when he was young became an excuse for Lai Qingde's persecution, even the judge could not bear it."
This time, the prosecutors are doomed; they may be counterattacked, further solidifying public opinion in Taiwan that Lai Qingde is politically persecuting Ko Wen-chieh.
To put it another way, the Taipei District Court concluded the investigation of the Jinghua City case and Ko Wen-chieh's political donation case on December 26 last year, indicting former Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-chieh and 10 others for crimes such as bribery, embezzlement, and breach of trust under the Anti-Corruption Act, specifically seeking a total sentence of 28 years and 6 months for Ko Wen-chieh.
At the court session on March 20, Ko Wen-chieh suddenly revealed that Prosecutor Lin Jun-yen had threatened and bullied him during interrogation, indicating that there were indecent films on his external hard drive, and if he did not admit to the crime, it would be handed over to the court for public disclosure. Ko Wen-chieh said, "I almost fell for it, thinking maybe I had been in prison too long? Fortunately, my wife Chen Peiqi has strict family education and would never have indecent films."
In general, ordinary people think that the so-called indecent films should involve Ko Wen-chieh having intimate relations with other women and involve interest transfers.
Unexpectedly, the judge eventually found that the so-called indecent films were irrelevant to this case, and the necessity of inspection was very low. Last night, media personality Huang Yangming revealed that the so-called indecent photos were actually like those of Shu Qi and Xu Ruoxuan's past full-frontal nude photo collections!
The prosecutor is really funny, trying to use Ko Wen-chieh watching adult films when he was younger as a threat or means to convict. Coincidentally, they encountered Ko Wen-chieh, who dared to confront them head-on, actively requesting the judge to inspect, resulting in a big joke, and the prosecutor was counterattacked.
What does it have to do with Ko Wen-chieh watching adult films and the charges of corruption and profiteering? This is what "adding insult to injury" and "fabricated charges" mean.
This will inevitably increase public sympathy for Ko Wen-chieh and hatred towards the Democratic Progressive Party and Lai Qingde.
Lai Qingde's credibility will certainly suffer a heavy blow. The number of people present at the protest activity in his office on April 26 will be a very critical observation indicator.
