The Jeju criminal defense attorney was sought by a client who requested assistance from a criminal defense attorney at the Jeju office in order to resolve the case with the help of an attorney specializing in this area.

How the Client Came to Seek a Jeju Criminal Defense Attorney

The client in this case saw a post on social media stating, “Seeking someone to have relations with a 13-year-old girl,” and contacted and met with the victim.

When the victim arrived at the client's home, he provided the victim with two bottles of beer, two bottles of soju, and four packs of cigarettes that he had purchased in advance.

In addition, he gave 170,000 won in cash and had sexual intercourse with the victim, a minor, and committed acts of abuse that caused sexual humiliation.
