Police book driver in his 60s ​ A total of 13 casualties, including 9 deaths, occurred in a reverse driving accident at City Hall Station, and the police announced on the 2nd that they have booked a driver in his 60s, Mr. A (68), and are investigating. Person A is currently receiving treatment at the hospital for injuries to his ribs. Jeong Yong-woo, head of the traffic division at Namdaemun Police Station in Seoul, said at a press briefing on this day, “The driver who caused the fatal accident, Mr. A, has been booked on charges of professional negligence manslaughter under the Special Act on Traffic Accidents.” Chief Jeong said, “We will conduct a strict and prompt investigation, including a thorough verification of the facts,” and added, “As we proceed with the case, we will review from various angles whether to apply for an arrest warrant.” Regarding Mr. A's claim that the accident occurred due to 'sudden acceleration,' Manager Jeong explained, "The basis for sudden acceleration so far is only the suspect's statement, and even if it is sudden acceleration, the charges do not change." He added, "For additional confirmation, we plan to request an identification of the vehicle from the National Forensic Service." The police placed a screen on the vehicle that was involved in the accident this morning and moved it to the National Forensic Service. The National Forensic Service's vehicle accident recording device (EDR) analysis usually takes one to two months. The police are reconstructing the circumstances at the time of the accident and the movements of the offending vehicle based on statements from people involved in the incident, eyewitnesses, closed-circuit TV (CCTV), and black box footage. Manager Jeong said, “Following accident resolution and scene preservation, we are now in the stage of collecting evidence. Since we have not analyzed the video yet, it is difficult to tell you the specific details of the accident, such as whether it accelerated, how it was driven, and where it hit.” The police said that Mr. A did not attempt to run away from the scene of the accident, and that no traces of alcohol or drugs were detected after conducting a breathalyzer test and quick drug test. Meanwhile, the legal community expressed the opinion that although it is possible to gauge whether a sudden action has occurred based on the current situation, proving this seems virtually impossible. Attorney Choi Hyun-deok of Daeryun Law Firm, who spoke to Segye Ilbo on this day, said that once sudden acceleration is recognized, it can be considered a defect in the vehicle. He said that in this case, it is difficult to bring charges because there was no driver negligence. Regarding the police charging Mr. A with professional negligence manslaughter under the Special Act on Traffic Accidents, Attorney Choi said, “At present, it appears to be considered a traffic accident.” This is because it is not yet known whether there will be a sudden outbreak or not. On the other hand, if the driver's negligence is found, pursuant to Article 3, Paragraph 1 of the Special Punishment Act, which stipulates special provisions for traffic accident punishment, if the driver commits a crime under Article 268 of the Criminal Act (professional negligence or gross negligence resulting in death) due to a traffic accident, the driver may be subject to imprisonment for up to 5 years or a fine of up to 20 million won, and is also liable for civil damages, Attorney Choi explained. He predicted, “The basic prison sentence for casualties in a traffic accident is between 8 months and a maximum of 2 years,” and added, “There were many casualties in this accident. A maximum of 2 years in prison could also be imposed.” He added, “It seems difficult to reduce the sentence if recovery from damages, such as reaching an agreement with the victim, is not possible.” Regarding the suspicion of sudden acceleration, he said, “Currently, the opinion of eyewitness experts is that ‘it was not a sudden acceleration,’” but pointed out, “There has yet to be a case in Korea where sudden acceleration has been acknowledged.” At the same time, he said, “It is impossible to conclude that it was not a sudden acceleration just by looking at the video of the vehicle gradually coming to a stop currently released by the media,” and “Given the circumstances, it is contradictory to discuss whether or not there was a sudden acceleration.” He added, “In the case of this accident, it boils down to the issue of proving sudden acceleration of the vehicle, and the court cannot admit it as evidence if there is no evidence. However, it seems that it can be taken into consideration in the sentencing standards. If sudden acceleration is not recognized, it is the driver’s fault, so excessive punishment is possible.”  [View full article] - Driver booked for ‘City Hall Station accident’… Expert: “The possibility of imprisonment is not something we can discuss at the moment” (Shortcut)

Law Sentenced to ‘2 Years Probation’ A driver who caused an accident while drinking and driving with a blood alcohol level of around 0.170%, then ran away and then turned himself in was found not guilty in court of the charge of ‘dangerous driving.’ The court pointed out, “Just because you drive while drunk does not immediately mean that you are in a state that makes normal driving difficult.” According to the legal community on the 21st, Daejeon District Court 5-3 Criminal Division (Presiding Judge Lee Hyo-seon) found Mr. A, a man in his 20s, not guilty of dangerous driving, as in the first trial, who was indicted on four charges, including causing injury by dangerous driving, causing death by fleeing, causing injury after an accident, and drunk driving. However, the remaining three charges were acknowledged and sentenced to eight months in prison and two years of probation. Mr. A was driving after drinking at around 0:01 on December 12, 2021, and collided with a vehicle that entered the intersection from the other side at Jangsan Intersection in Taean, South Chungcheong Province. The other vehicle was damaged by the impact and four people in their 20s in the car were injured, but fled without taking any action. However, he immediately returned and surrendered himself to the police, and Mr. A's blood alcohol level measured at that time was 0.170%. The prosecution claimed that Mr. A injured the victim because he was not careful due to the influence of alcohol. According to Daeryun Law Firm, if your blood alcohol level is 0.1% or higher, you are usually sentenced to 1 to 2 years in prison or a fine of 5 to 10 million won. Under the current law, a person is punished for drunk driving even if the blood alcohol concentration is only 0.03%, and the prosecution also used this situation as a basis. However, the 1st and 2nd trial courts found that Mr. A was not guilty of causing injury by dangerous driving. The court cited the following as grounds: △ Mr. A, who was stopped at the stop line, moved slowly when the traffic light changed to a flashing signal at midnight and two other vehicles crossing the intersection passed; △ When Mr. A's vehicle passed through the middle of the intersection, the victim's vehicle entered the intersection late at a considerable speed without slowing down from the side; △ The fact that the victim's vehicle, which discovered Mr. A's vehicle late, turned to the right. In addition, it was pointed out that just because Mr. A drove while drunk at a level of 0.170%, it does not immediately mean that he was in a state that made normal driving difficult. The first trial court found that the main fault of this accident was the victim's vehicle, and the second trial court also ruled that the accident occurred due to a combination of the victim's negligence and Mr. A's negligence in neglecting his duty to look left and right. The second trial court explained the reason for sentencing by saying, “If we add the circumstances that the original trial used as the basis for innocence and the facts and circumstances based on the evidence legally adopted, it is difficult to say that the evidence presented by the prosecutor alone proved that ‘normal driving is difficult due to the influence of alcohol.’” “Because there is no violation of factual misconception or misunderstanding of legal principles claimed by the prosecutor in the original trial’s judgment of innocence, we do not accept the appeal for the ‘dangerous driving injury’ portion,” and explained the reason for sentencing. Meanwhile, if you are caught for drunk driving, you will be subject to both criminal and administrative sanctions. If your blood alcohol concentration is 0.03% or more but less than 0.08%, you will be subject to 100 demerit points (100-day license suspension). If your blood alcohol concentration is 0.08% or higher, your driver's license will be revoked for one year. At this time, anyone who refuses to take a breathalyzer test will also have their license revoked for one year, and anyone who has been caught more than twice will have their license revoked for two years.  [Read the full article] - A man in his 20s found not guilty on the charge of ‘dangerous driving’ in drunken hit-and-run… why?

Busan District Court "dismisses the defendant's appeal"... Victims say, "We shouldn't go to the Supreme Court" In the first trial of the 18 billion won jeonse fraud case in Busan last month, the court sentenced the defendant to a heavier sentence than the prosecutors recommended, saying, "It is a serious crime of using the rental deposit, which is almost the entire property of ordinary people, as a means of profit-seeking." On the 20th, the appeals court also upheld this judgment. The victims and civil society reacted by saying that a natural conclusion had been reached. Criminal Division 4-1 of the Busan District Court dismissed the appeal of Mr. Choi, in his 50s, who was indicted on fraud charges at the sentencing hearing held in courtroom 354 on this day. The court, which considered the original trial's sentence to be appropriate, did not accept the defendant's argument, saying, "There are no special circumstances to change it." After the first trial sentence, Mr. Choi immediately submitted an appeal, saying that the sentence was severe. Mr. Choi was handed over to trial on charges of failing to return 18 billion won in rental deposits received from 229 tenants of 9 buildings, including studio apartments, through capital-free gap investment from 2020 to January of last year. The damage amount at the initial indictment stage was 16 billion won, but the amount increased as additional damage was confirmed. Regarding this, Choi's lawyer protested, saying, "We are making efforts to repay," but the prosecution requested a 13-year prison sentence from the court due to his denial of the crime and lack of remorse. However, Detective 1 of the Eastern Branch of the Busan District Court in charge of the case increased the actual sentence to 15 years. The crime is serious and the social harm is great, so a heavy sentence is inevitable.  At the time of the ruling, the judge's courtroom remarks that made the victim cry received attention. Chief Judge Park Joo-young, who introduced the names of those who collected the deposit from Mr. Choi and the contents of the petition, pointed out the problem of the social system that created good victims, saying, "Please never blame yourself or blame yourself." He said he desperately hopes for their return to normal life. Since the appeals court also found that there was no problem with the first trial's ruling, if Choi does not knock on the door of a higher trial, the sentence could be confirmed as is. However, victims were concerned about the possibility of going to the Supreme Court. Mr. Choi, in his 30s, a victim of a rental fraud who left the court, said, "I did not receive a deposit, and there was no apology. It would be completely unacceptable to appeal after causing such pain." Despite successive convictions, compensation for the damage they are suffering is difficult to resolve. Son Soo-yeon (Daeryun Law Firm), the victim's lawyer, said, "Even though the sentence was maintained, there was no actual damage recovered, so it seems like we need to look into civil affairs, etc." and added, "The victims would normally try to reach a settlement at this level, but they feel devastated by the defendant who has not even said an apology to the point of being shameless." Civil society also agreed with the victim's claim and the court's judgment. An official from the Busan Civil Society Countermeasures Committee to resolve the problem of jeonse fraud and tin rent, which is formed by Busan People's Solidarity for Participatory Democracy and Busan People's Defense, pointed out, "This is a result of reaffirming that jeonse fraud is a serious social crime," and added, "As Mr. Choi spoke of forgiveness and payment for his crimes in his court statement, he must accept the sentence and begin to recover as a victim."  [View full article] - 18 billion won jeonse fraud 2nd degree sentence: 15 years in prison maintained...
