My child seems to be continuously bullied at school. There's cursing through messages like KakaoTalk, and one day friends apparently took her belongings. One day there were bruises on my child's arm, and when I asked, she's been passive saying there's no special evidence. What should I secure as school violence evidence? I'm wondering what types of evidence will be useful in future reporting procedures.

Hello. This is the criminal complaint attorney from Daeryun (LLC) Law Firm.

Transmission of an STD can also constitute the crime of assault and result in a criminal complaint.

Under criminal law, 'assault' does not simply mean inflicting wounds on the external body.

Acts that damage the integrity of the victim's body or cause impairment of physiological function also constitute assault.

For example, the following cases may be recognized as assault.

▷ Stripping off the epidermis of the skin
▷ Causing dizziness or vomiting due to symptoms of poisoning
▷ Loss of teeth, induction of fatigue and lethargy
▷ Hymenal laceration
▷ STD transmission, etc.

According to Supreme Court precedent, assault means damaging the integrity of the victim's body or causing impairment of physiological function, and does not necessarily have to be accompanied by external wounds.

For example, symptoms caused by extreme psychological shock, such as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), are also included in assault according to the Supreme Court's position.

For details, it is important to thoroughly review the circumstances of the case, the presence of intent, evidence, etc., through consultation with a criminal complaint attorney, and then establish a response strategy.

If you have been criminally complained against for assault, please promptly consult with a criminal complaint attorney.
