[Seoul Economic Daily]Experts believe that it is important to respond early in a criminal case through accurate legal analysis with the help of a criminal lawyer, if possible, as it is possible to encounter unfavorable situations without the assistance of a lawyer in the early stages of the case.
According to Daeryun Law Firm, a large law firm, it advises that in the case of criminal cases, it is important to find contradictions in sharply conflicting claims through professional analysis of statements by criminal lawyers.
This is a case where I was representing the defendant in Daeryun. There is a defendant and a victim who are living together ahead of marriage. An argument broke out when the drunk victim saw a toothbrush in the bathroom and suspected the defendant of an affair. As a result, the victim died while receiving treatment for subdural hemorrhage, and the defendant was indicted on charges of manslaughter, but was acquitted.
The lawyer in charge at the time solved the case based on the principle of evidentiary judgment as stipulated by the Criminal Procedure Act. Particular attention was paid to the pattern of the wound. In response to the prosecution's opinion that the defendant injured the victim and caused her death, they emphasized the defendant's statement that the victim fell on the living room floor. They also claimed that the victim was drunk and that the floor was slippery due to the soju bottle thrown at the defendant and the food on the table that was overturned.
Additionally, the victim's body, which had alcoholic liver disease, was prone to bruises from even minor external forces. It was based on the autopsy report showing that there were no injuries on the victim's body parts such as the head and neck except for the back of the head, and the fact that there were no signs of assault.
In addition, the trial was led by the fact that after the victim fell and the suspect called 119, they checked again whether 119 was dispatched and took rescue measures, the testimony of the first paramedic who arrived said there were no signs of a struggle, the fact that the blood traces found at the scene of the injury were those of the defendant, and the fact that the victim spoke on the phone for two minutes just before and after the injury.
Accordingly, the court declared the defendant not guilty, saying, "In a criminal trial, the admission of a crime must be based on strict evidence with the probative power to create confidence beyond a reasonable doubt. The evidence submitted by the prosecutor alone is insufficient to admit the indictment, and there is no other evidence to admit it."
At the time, a criminal lawyer from Daeryun Law Firm said, “Criminal cases are generally situations in which an explanation is needed due to extreme conflict between the parties or unfair charges, so it is important to appoint a criminal lawyer from the early stage to proceed with the case.” He added, “Above all, we need to analyze the case closely, collect evidence, and create a logical structure to refute the prosecution facts to lead the trial.”
Meanwhile, Daeryun Law Firm, which is scheduled to open a new Seoul office on the 25th, currently has criminal lawyers, civil lawyers, divorce lawyers, and domestic affairs lawyers.
