Edison Chen Sex Photos Scandal - He breaks his silence:

Looks like Edison has broken his silence, this just came out about an hour ago:

Video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=io9n4XwJQG0

He didn't really address the matter too much (like why did he have hundreds or thousands of sex photos on his computer in the first place and how did such a dangerous collection get in the possession of these people?)

I am really happy he included an apology to the victims of the scandal (the three actresses thus far exposed... )

The original was posted here on Singtao:
http://www.singtao.com/special/video/videozone080204.html

To update everyone (click here to read the original blog for all the previous developments) - it looks like the Police caught the ring who was uploading the photos. There were a group of 6 people arrested over the weekend, on their computers they apparently found nearly 1000 photos from this 'collection', including ones that had not been uploaded yet to the web (ie they are definitely connected to the original source of the pictures). IT looks like Edison took his computer in to get repaired a few years back and they copied the files off his hard drive (ps - view this video about computer 'repair' people that pEtEr linked to the other day, its very scary!)

The major remaining question is - have they given these photos to anyone else? or are they not the actual original person?

It looks like no one is pretending the photos are fake anymore, but I'm sure the victims' companies will still claim they are just for face's sake.

UPDATE (2/6/08): According to some reports, despite the claims that the ring has been arrested, there have apparently been more photos posted online which purport to be from the same batch of photos (apparently a singer, but i didn't recognize her)... which leads on to believe that there are a lot more copies floating around... But according to the press reports, the guys they arrested over the weekend in fact included the computer technician who apparently copied the files when Edison sent his computer in for repair...

Let's see how this develops...

UPDATE (2/07/08): oh god, I wish i could unsee what I have seen! will someone please invent a time machine to stop me from looking at these new Edison Chen Sex Photos? earlier tonight a friend of mine got a whole big set of new pictures forwarded to him through email (which apparently has become the transference method of choice in HK... ) there's gotta be 200+ of them... many more from the 'scenes' already presented in earlier photos, the same actresses and some new actresses/singers as well -- although the new actresses aren't as high profile as previous ones...

But these photos are quite a bit more explicit than the previous sets... whereas before you may have thought 'oh ok, these are just playful erotic photos taken by a young couple that unfortunately got exposed', these new ones (which we now know represent just a fraction of the supposed 1300 photos taken from the laptop), are much more 'serious', in that they resemble some serious p0rn... actually kind of... (or really...) disturbing if you think about it... :-O

I'm wondering what the papers will say tomorrow. I'll check out the news stand if I get a chance... Gung Hei Fat Choy! :-P

Sorica: i would agree taking them isn't criminal, but it is entirely reckless and foolhardy. Its just like walking down the street with your diamond necklace hanging out of your purse... don't be surprised if people don't feel sorry for you when it gets stolen.

i don't know if i were lucky or unlucky, no one has ever emailed me the pics!
i agree with a lot of the comments, the taking of the pics isn't criminal but the stealing is. i don't get why that many HK denounce what EC did, maybe they're just jealous (referring to guys)??

haha I like how you put in some nice keywords for search engines lol ~~ he looks like he hasn't slept in days...=\ But how stupid do you have to be to send in a computer to be fixed with these types of files on it? And he's famous, people are obviously going to go through your shit... >_< please excuse the language...

Yes, go to the spot where the crime was perpetrated - the computer repair shop.

19 bodies on this case? I wonder how many they devote to normal cases, like murders and such. I guess the police force wants to look effective on such a high-profile crime.

In his blog he says he accepts full responsibility. For his monumental stupidity or for ruining some girls' lives? In the US, people would probably give him another chance, but the girls wouldn't ever be considered serious actresses---double standard I know. What's the buzz in Hong Kong?

As for the crack police work, it reminds me of how terrorists are arrested 20 minutes after a bomb goes off in Saudi Arabia. In other words, scapegoats. Let's hope I'm wrong.

btw, i just received new photos from the scandal. i think the perpetrators are still at large. the newly released photos are of Bobo Chan and someone in yellow undies. i can't see who it is. don't recognize her.

it's quite evident that the police are using a scare tactic to fool the general public.

i keep having ppl ask me if there's any newly released pics in regards to this scandal. and this apology video reminds me of a terrorist video for some reason.

Joanne: my gosh, maybe you're on to something!? this whole thing is obviously a conspiracy by the PC industry to trick people into avoiding repair services on their computer!

I'm not totally convinced by his plea, but the stress of this past week is obvious in his face. The fact of the matter is, he and the girls were stupid to have photos on a PC to begin with, BUT nobody has the right to STEAL, and tha'ts exactly what this computer repair man has done.
From now on no more repairs for my PC...Smash it too bits and buy a new one.
