The alleged kidnapper of missing Chinese student Yingying Zhang attended a rally in support of her family just one day before he was arrested.
Brendt Christensen, 28, is charged with kidnapping Zhang, a visiting scholar at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, who police believe is now dead after she went missing on June 9.
On Thursday, Christensen was at a rally in support of her friends and family – many of whom flew to Illinois from China after her disappearance, according to the News Gazette.
