An Uijeongbu court finally detained on Tuesday the American GI accused of sexually assaulting a high school girl and stealing her notebook computer in Mapo in September.
The court issued the warrant citing concerns that the suspect might destroy evidence or flee the country.
I’ve got to be honest, though—I hope the prosecutors have got more than this:
During questioning, Private R reportedly admitted to stealing the notebook, but denied the sexual assault, saying Miss A first offered in English to perform a sexual act (the Korean term is a euphemism often referring to oral sex or non-penetrative sex acts).
Prosecutors, however, filed for a detention warrant on Dec 2, based on the fact that Miss A is not sufficiently proficient in English to make the first offer and the National Forensic Service found Private R’s fluids on Miss A’s underwear.
You know, with all the crap the prosecutors have been getting themselves into lately, you’d think they’d know you don’t need a TOEIC score of 900 to make that sort of offer.
If the GI did actually assault the girl, I hope for her sake the prosecutors are bringing more to the game than that.
Prosecutors plan to indict the suspect within 24 hours of after is detention.

Umm, this cannot be a hot topic at TMH. I thought commenters here are so much into news about sex scandals in Korea.
They were afraid he would leave the country??? There was probably a good chance that he was on administrative hold by USFK, meaning he wasn’t going ANYwhere until there was a final disposition to the case.
But then again, since they have been dragging their asses on even indicting the guy (probably because the evidence is too scant or contradictory), it is possible there was no administrative hold placed on him, and that he was scheduled soon to rotate to another military assignment. I mean, if the prosecutors don’t think that after nearly THREE months there isn’t enough to indict the guy, why hold him huh?
Clearly the prosecutors are being pressured to indict this guy, and BOY would they love for him to cop a plea.
By the way, the girl’s English wasn’t good enough that she could possibly have offered him oral sex after she clearly invited him back to her place? Say who?? Her??? Suddenly, her English skills are so scant she can’t even say the two initials “B” and “J” together? COME ON!!!
They found his fluids on her underwear? Not inside her? Hmmm..possibly because she no swallow after and preferred to spit it out? Double COME ON!!!
She’s lying….
