Dr. Cho Joo Bin (25) is confirmed to be under investigation for other criminal charges besides the brutal sex crimes regarding his chatroom "N bang" on Telegram. Police revealed Cho's face on the 24th and revealed other personal information regarding his case.
According to the SBS report on the 24th, Kang, a public service worker at the district office who also worked as a member of the "Paksa-bang" group was arrested on charges of secretly stealing the victim' personal information for Dr. Cho's sex crimes. Kang, who had made repeated threats against women in their 30s served one year and 2 months in prison and was released in March last year.
After his release, he asked Cho to take revenge against a woman who had reported him. Cho visited the daycare center where the woman took her daughter after obtaining her address through Kang. Kang paid Cho 4 million won to kill the woman and child and left the money behind a fire hydrant at Cho's house where he lived with his family. Fortunately, he didn't get around to committing the crime but police confirmed they've charged him with conspiracy to commit murder.
Police are also investigating Cho for fraud after he allegedly approached a private broadcast reporter in December last year and extorted 15 million won from politicians after blackmailing them with threats of releasing information contained in a USB device.
