I need a response to a sex crime civil lawsuit.

I was recently discharged from the military. There was a notebook the military issued, and without thinking much, I showed it to my girlfriend and let her take photos of it. But my girlfriend posted those photos on social media, and I got a call telling me to be investigated for violating the Military Secrets Protection Act. I didn't even know this notebook was a military secret — will I really be punished? Please help.

Let me answer your question about sex crime civil lawsuits.

To get straight to the conclusion, a sex crime civil lawsuit is fully possible.

Separately from the criminal lawsuit, the victim can file a civil damages claim lawsuit for the mental and material damages caused by the sex crime.

This is a procedure for the victim to receive compensation for the damages they suffered, regardless of the perpetrator's guilt, based on tort liability under civil law.

In civil lawsuits, the criminal case verdict may have an effect, but a criminal guilty verdict does not necessarily have to exist for civil liability to be recognized.

The civil court judges independently, and the burden of proof primarily lies with the victim.

Therefore, to avoid damages in a civil lawsuit, the person identified as the perpetrator must clearly prepare a counter-argument logic that refutes the victim's claims and evidence.

Also, if a civil lawsuit is filed together while the criminal case is ongoing, duplicate legal disputes may arise over the same factual circumstances, so it is important to strategically link and respond to both lawsuits.
