Why are we only just now getting a statement? And how can they possibly expect anyone to believe that "none of the players were involved in match fixing" ......

The only thing of substance is that people were jailed, which is more than what I expected from KeSPA. The only thing to do is see how it pans out I guess.

So, just so I have the facts straight...

-Every single time the betting lines were heavily skewed, they correctly predicted the outcome of the match.
-Kespa is saying that was entirely coincidental.
-Everyone who is "relieved" by Kespa's statement agrees that it was entirely coincidental.

Am I off on anything?

Guess Rekrul was on point when he said that its in Kespa's best interest to cover it as much as possible.

But i guess some people will buy it and even will think that MatchFixKing.prime is innocent and "just bad"

The reason Kespa made the statement by now is that there was an incident that a match-fixing broker was illegally confined by the match-fixing investor after the broker's deal to the progamer(Soulkey) to match-fix was denied, and the investor lost his bet.
Report on that: http://www.gameshot.net/common/con_view.php?code=GA554b2e40e08a9
결과적으로 A 선수가 제의를 거부해 승부 조작이 무산되자 돈을 날린 투자자는 브로커를 감금한 것. 위협을 느낀 브로커가 경기도 경찰청 광역수사대에 구조를 요청하면서 이번 사건이 경찰에 의해 본격 조사에 착수, A 선수는 조만간 검찰에 출두해 자세한 내용을 밝힐 것으로 보인다.

So, there was an actual investigation on this by the police about the match-fixing( and probably more focused on the confinement). And consequently, Kespa released the statement as this had a physical incident and investigation unlike some online betting site outside of Korea pulling bets you know who to investigate other than the gamers.

Do we know if the police investigated Soulkey (like chat logs/bank account etc) or not?

We don't know if they did yet. (They didn't release the full/final statement yet, though they will soon, so we may know.) However, at least we know that the one got locked up would have testified that Soulkey denied the offer.
