2. The Goyang Criminal Defense Attorney's Strategy for a Non-referral Decision
The Goyang criminal defense attorney conducted close consultation with the client and analyzed the client's case, then devised a suitable solution and provided assistance to the client.
The Goyang Attorney's Assistance Toward a Non-referral Decision
▶ The criminal defense attorney emphasized that, even assuming all of the victim's statements were true, the client's act of handing over 2 additional zolpidem pills at the request of the victim, who had taken 8 zolpidem pills in order to take her own life, could not be regarded as constituting attempted murder, leaving aside whether it might amount to attempted aiding of suicide.
▶ The criminal defense attorney emphasized that zolpidem is a psychotropic drug and may not be provided to others by anyone who is not a narcotics handler, but that the client had not in fact handed over the 2 zolpidem pills at all.
▶ The criminal defense attorney emphasized that the evidence was insufficient to establish the client's alleged facts.
