ROK Justice Minister Says She Will Choose Different Prosecutors for Decision to Indict Moon Administration Officials for Election Meddling

The cover up of the Moon administration’s election meddling is continuing:

Justice Minister Choo Mi-ae defended herself Tuesday over her controversial decision to stop disclosing the full text of indictments involving President Moon-Jae-in’s close allies, saying it was necessary step.

During a press conference marking her first 40 days in office, the minister also explained her move to separate the investigation procedure from the indictment process. Choo is seeking to create a separate prosecution unit to decide on indictments after it reviews the results of investigations by subordinate prosecutors.

“What I did was a first step to correct wrong practices by giving defendants the benefit of the doubt and the right to a fair trial,” she said during the press conference held at the ministry headquarters in Gwacheon, Gyeonggi Province.

On Feb. 5, Choo ordered the ministry to stop disclosing information to the National Assembly about the indictments of Moon’s allies involved in the 2018 Ulsan mayoral election-meddling scandal.

You can read more at the link, but don’t be surprised if no one is charged since the Justice Ministers plans to have prosecutors she picks be the ones to decide whether to indict the accused Moon administration officials.

Could you imagine the up roar in the U.S. if the Trump administration chose the prosecutors who would decide to indict anyone investigated by the Mueller investigation. That is essentially what is happening here with little care from the local or international media.
