Damn, I edited the T-ara part out 46 minutes ago so you must've spent a lot of time on this post. I honestly appreciate the dialog. Like I've said repeatedly already, I'm not a Soojin fan so I'm 100% open to reading new takes.

The google doc is literally just a timeline of pann post translations. The allkpop story you linked seems to have been from the 24th. Since that story, multiple people have come out at least partially defending Soojin. Also, since that allkpop story, people were able to poke holes in "victim D's" story regarding their jacket. Clearly the whole story is still developing.

You talk about not believing testimony supporting/defending Soojin since some of it is from former friends of hers. Using that logic, wouldn't you have to ignore testimony from family members/friends of the alleged victims since of course they would side with them?

People are always in such a rush to form opinions/farm internet points whenever controversy happens. You have people who will read Soojin's statement and immediately believe her and you have people who will read a couple anonymous pann posts and immediately believe that. The reason I choose to stay neutral is because I think the worst thing the public can do in these situations is to rush to judgement and potentially create new victims. If it turns out Soojin is guilty, it'll come out in due time and she'll face appropriate punishment (the real debate is what is an appropriate punishment for idols who were bad when they were children). If it turns out Soojin is innocent, or that the claims against her have been blown out of proportion, then she'll be supported. Until then, there's really no reason for us to declare her definitively innocent or guilty. That's just my opinion though and I've appreciated the discussion.
