After U.S. prosecutors decided not to file a lawsuit against JD.com founder Liu Qiangdong, Liu Qiangdong's lawyer pursued the victory and sent materials to Chinese media stating that everything that happened in the room was voluntary and that the female fairy danced.Chinese official media appealed not to cause secondary harm to the woman. Netizens expressed their innocence and shamelessness.
Hennepin County Prosecutor Mike Freeman (Mike Freeman) announced on Friday that after a thorough investigation and careful assessment, he found that Liu Qiangdong was suspected of sexually assaulting a Chinese female student at the University of Minnesota with insufficient evidence, so he decided not to prosecute him.Liu Qiangdong was freed from the peachy turmoil in the past four months.
Liu Qiangdong (45 years old) issued a statement on Weibo yesterday, saying: This result proves that I have not violated any laws from the beginning to the end.
He admitted that my actions on the day of the incident caused great harm to his wife and family members. He felt guilty and regretful for this, and he confessed the truth to his wife immediately.In other words, he admitted to cheating in marriage.
Liu Qiangdong's wife, Zhang Zetian, is 19 years younger than him and has a sweet appearance. She is known as the "Milk Tea Sister" because a photo of her holding milk tea in junior high school became popular on the Internet in 2009.When she was 20 years old, the two met while studying in the United States in 2013. They got married in 2015 and their daughter was born the following year.
On August 30 this year, Liu Qiangdong and his classmates in the University of Minnesota's business doctoral program had dinner at a Japanese restaurant, and everyone drank during the dinner.The then 21-year-old Chinese female student was invited to dinner and was seated next to Liu Qiangdong.The girl told the police that Liu Qiangdong sent her home after dinner, took off her clothes and stayed on the bed, and beat her violently despite her objections.The girl's lawyer told the media about the girl's statement earlier this month, saying that Liu Qiangdong's lawyer offered to settle.
Liu Qiangdong's female lawyer, Jill Brisbois, issued a statement refuting the girl's claim.She wrote in an e-mail to the media that both Liu Qiangdong and the girl drank but were not drunk during the dinner party; Liu Qiangdong's assistant witnessed the girl making out with Mr. Liu Qiangdong in the car, and the girl's neighbor watched from the corridor of the apartmentWhen the two walked very close arm in arm, they looked very happy.
Breece Boyce said in a statement: "Everything that happened in the room was voluntary.After the two had a relationship, the girl called the police, and the police came to the door at 3 o'clock in the morning.According to Breece Boyce, after the girl was interviewed by the police, she apologized to Liu Qiangdong and said it was a misunderstanding.Later in the day, the girl asked to meet with Liu Qiangdong. He was arrested by the police when he arrived at the negotiation site, and was released unconditionally 16 hours later.
Bryce Boyce said that during Liu Qiangdong's detention, the girl asked to contact her and repeatedly asked for money, threatening to disclose the matter and sue Liu Qiangdong. Liu Qiangdong firmly refused to negotiate. Shortly thereafter, the girl hired a civil lawyer andDuring the investigation of the case, a large amount of false information was repeatedly disseminated through the media. The lawyer finally emphasized that Liu Qiangdong has not, and will not agree to the woman's request for money and settlement in the future.
The conclusion of Liu Qiangdong's case has sparked heated discussions in China.The China Women's Daily immediately issued a statement saying: Liu Qiangdong is not guilty, this is a legal judgment.But there is morality behind the law. As a public figure, you should have higher requirements for your words and deeds.Liu Qiangdong is fine this time, but we don't want him to act like a normal person.
The statement concluded by reminding public opinion not to cause secondary harm to the other party involved.U.S. prosecutors refused to disclose more details about the case, citing their reluctance to harm girls a second time.
Most Chinese netizens criticize: Cheating is to let your wife down
Most Chinese netizens hold a critical attitude towards Liu Qiangdong, thinking that he cheated on his wife because he was innocent and shameless.Some netizens also pointed out that the lack of evidence does not mean that there is no crime, but that it is difficult to prove conclusive evidence in sexual assault cases.
Since the U.S. prosecutors are no longer involved, and the lawyers of both sides have completely contradicted their statements, only the two people in the room that night know what the truth is.
