More sex videos allegedly filmed by Justin Lee (李宗瑞) have been circulating since Monday, with investigators saying it was difficult to prevent the videos from spreading.
At least 10 new sex films apparently related to the Lee case have appeared since Monday.

Lee, who has been accused of drugging and raping a number of women, among them celebrities, and filming the acts, turned himself in to prosecutors on Thursday after three weeks on the run.
