Hwang and his team "indelibly hurt the people as well as the families and patients of hard-to-cure diseases," Lee said. "Some scientists abused the people's high expectations and a lack of peer reviews and disregarded ethics of research to attain their own goals." Embryonic stem cell research is an inhumane sham to begin with, so this isn't really surprising.

Big whoop.
We've already got a mammoth.
And he's the senior senator from Massachusetts, to boot!

So this guy's in big trouble for trying to do something cool (cloning mammoths) when he was supposed to be doing something evil (grinding up babies)?!? What's the world coming to?

"Prosecutor Lee In-kyu also said Hwang embezzled $900,000 in private and government donations to the research. After getting more than $35 billion in research funds from the government and private donors, South Korean prosecutors say Hwang misused much of the money by laundering it through 63 bank accounts set up under false names."$35 Billion? That doesn't sound right.

I am getting out my stopwatch to see how long it takes for the Luddite crowd to use this as "proof" that scientific research should not be done and/or TToE is false.

He also indicated he deposited research funds into bank accounts under the names of colleagues and frequently withdrew large sums of money and put it in suitcases and took it to undisclosed locations.
"Some of it had to go to uses of a highly classified nature," he said, according to the Reuters report. A highly classified nature ROFLMAO. More seriously, at least the Koreans are prosecuting this guy. Too bad the same kind of scrutiny isn't being applied to the billions of dollars thrown at AIDS research and many other "scientific" boondoggles.
