The "truth," Ho said, is that he is addicted to Vancouver's drug-dependent prostitutes.
"I am addicted to helping them," he said.
Vancouver police officers describe Ho's comments as "hogwash."
...
But those close to Ho swear the man has been quietly helping young women involved in drugs and the sex trade for about six years.
They claim that he has written cheques for up to $15,000 to women who have lost their teeth, to pay for dental work.
He apparently has helped a University of B.C. professor get her daughter off the Vancouver streets. He has never made this work public and only his closest aides and confidantes know about the philanthropy that got him in trouble, one of his aides said Monday.
"I don't know what to think. I have seen him try so hard to help some of these girls and I know for sure he has helped many young girls," she said.
