South Korean president Yoon Suk Yeol was arrested Wednesday by the country’s Corruption Investigation Office for High Ranking officials, a first for a sitting South Korean leader.

This was the second bid to arrest the impeached president, following a failed attempt on Jan.3 when agents from South Korea’s Presidential Security Service had blocked investigators from entering Yoon’s residence.

Unlike the first attempt, “this time, there were no individuals or security staff actively obstructing the execution, and there were no significant physical clashes,” the CIO said.

Meanwhile, Muricans had 4 years to convict a career criminal for attempting a coup d'état, but somehow the task was too complicated for them, so they made him President. Hail Hydra etc.
