1. The Client
The client was a father who had lost a child to school violence.
Another shocking piece of news reached the client, who was already grieving the loss of a child.
This was because the client learned that the perpetrators had appealed, claiming that the prison sentences they received in the first-instance judgment were unfair.
The client, who had lost a child, came to the Daeryun Anyang office to seek an attorney's assistance so that the perpetrators would receive a proper punishment.
How the Client Came to Us
What circumstances led the client to come to Daeryun?
The client was a father who had lost a child to school violence.
The client's child had suffered continuous bullying from the perpetrators.
The perpetrators repeatedly committed joint assault against the client's child and committed defamation by filming the assault on video and sending it to friends around them.
Unable to endure the bullying any longer, the client's child took their own life.
The perpetrators each received a prison sentence in the first instance on charges of joint assault and defamation.
However, the perpetrators filed an appeal, claiming that the first-instance sentences were too heavy.
The client, who had lost a child, requested Daeryun's assistance so that the perpetrators would receive a proper punishment.

2. Assistance Provided to the Client
The client wanted the perpetrators to receive a proper punishment.
The Anyang attorney set out to rebut the sentence claimed by the perpetrators.
Anyang Attorney Argues That the Client Still Lives in Suffering
The Anyang attorney argued that the client and their family still live in suffering and earnestly wish for the perpetrators to be severely punished.
The client's family has fallen into such deep grief since their child's passing that they cannot lead a normal life.
On the basis of the grief of parents who had lost a child, the Anyang attorney argued that severe punishment was necessary for the perpetrators who had become the cause of the child taking their own life.
Anyang Attorney Argues That the Offense Was Grave in Nature
The perpetrators unilaterally assaulted the client's child and filmed and distributed footage of it.
The victim, who was a high school student, made an irreversible choice in the face of unbearable humiliation.
In particular, filming and distributing video without consent is an issue that has become a major social problem, and it is a grave offense that can by no means be overlooked.
For these reasons, the Daeryun Anyang attorney emphasized that the perpetrators' offense was grave in nature.
