Ji met Elledge after she moved to the U.S. from China to study engineering at the University of Missouri. But Elledge said Ji’s death was accidental. Elledge said he discovered in the days before Ji’s death that she had been exchanging sexually suggestive messages on social media with a man from China. But Knight said in an interview with The Associated Press on Friday night that the defense “fabricated” the story that Ji’s death was accidental. They began dating the following year and eventually traveled to China, where Elledge asked Ji’s parents for permission to marry her.
