Detained by police on July 10 for alleged involvement in a World Cup gambling ring, Guo achieved Internet infamy in 2011 after posting photos of her lavish lifestyle from a social media account crediting her as the \u201ccommercial general manager\u201d at the Red Cross Society of China. Guo\u2019s claim further sullied the reputation of an organization already the target of public distrust; the Red Cross has been implicated in several other scandals unrelated to Guo. The South China Morning Post has translated part of her televised confession:<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The New York Times notes that Guo also offered an apology to the Red Cross and all the people her lie may have affected:<\/p>\n<p>She also expressed remorse for having damaged the reputation of the Red Cross and denied having any association with the charity organization. \u201cBecause of my own vanity, I made a huge mistake,\u201d she said in the video confession. \u201cI would like to offer my deep apologies to the Red Cross,\u201d she said tearfully as she bowed her head. \u201cAnd even deeper apologies to the public and even deeper apologies to the people who have not been rescued.\u201d [Source]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/chinadigitaltimes.net\/2014\/08\/minitrue-guo-meimeis-confession\/?utm_source=feedburner&amp;utm_medium=feed&amp;utm_campaign=Feed%3A+chinadigitaltimes%2FbKzO+%28China+Digital+Times+%28CDT%29%29\">For detail please visit here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>August 4, 2014 6:08 PM Posted By: josh r &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/minitrue-guo-meimeis-confession\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mi_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[35,110],"tags":[37,1343,715,713,373],"views":2622,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2492"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2501,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2492\/revisions\/2501"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2492"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2492"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.chinesepen.org\/english\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2492"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
