Not Guilty?
A woman who allegedly has ties to the Cecilia Zhang case is supposedly writing online messages about the main suspect. And she claims the accused child killer may not be guilty.
The woman, who says she was the one detained and then released in connection with the case, dispatched a statement on a Chinese website based in Toronto. It’s the same portal that Cecilia’s parents used to speak with the Chinese community when the hunt for their daughter was still on.
The still unidentified woman’s message claims she was surprised to hear 21-year-old Min Chen is a suspect, describing him as a “very kind person” and saying that she “would have never imagined that he would be responsible for this tragedy.”
But the poster’s identify can’t be confirmed.
Meanwhile, there’s still been no official announcement about a motive in the case. But some speculation has hinted that a need to raise cash to do away with gambling debts was the reason the nine-year-old was taken from her home in October, 2003.
The stories suggest those ransom plans fell apart because of all the attention on the child’s abduction and that Cecilia was then killed.
New media reports claim that two fingerprints discovered at the Zhang’s house represented a major breakthrough for investigators.
And there have also been unconfirmed stories that evidence found with Cecilia’s body contained links to the suspect. The child’s remains were discovered in a wooded area of Mississauga last March.
