1. The Circumstances of the Case as Understood by the Seongnam Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney
The circumstances of the client's case, as understood by the Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney, were as follows.
The client, who works as an academy instructor, was charged with a violation of the Act on the Protection of Children and Youth against Sexual Abuse (indecent act by compulsion).
Regardless of occupation, the client sought help in order to avoid, above all, receiving an actual custodial sentence, and therefore turned to the Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney.
The client and the victims were in an instructor-student relationship at the academy.
The client made the mistake of touching the students whom the client taught on several occasions.

The Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney reviewed the statutes related to the offense in order to obtain an 🔗acquittal of an indecent act by compulsion.
An indecent act by compulsion is an offense committed when, against the other person's will, the offender commits an indecent act that arouses sexual shame and revulsion.
It is also one of the most commonly occurring sex offenses.
The levels of punishment for indecent acts against adults and indecent acts against children and youth are as follows.
Criminal Act Article 298 (Indecent Act by Compulsion) Act on the Protection of Children and Youth against Sexual Abuse Article 7(3) (Application of Indecent Act by Compulsion) |
Recently, as social awareness of sex offenses against children and youth has increased, legal punishment has also been progressively strengthened.
Regardless of the victim's intent, heavy punishment may be imposed for the act itself, and even if a defendant claims it was mere physical contact, an indecent act by compulsion may be committed if the victim felt fear.
In addition, when the victim is a minor, there is a tendency to punish the perpetrator strictly, so a prompt and accurate response in the early stages is the most important.

3. The Seongnam Indecent Act by Compulsion Attorney's Assistance
The Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney mounted a meticulous defense strategy by raising the following among the Sentencing Commission's mitigating factors.
Emphasizing That the Client Is Sincerely Remorseful
The Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney emphasized that the client, unlike other teachers, had always communicated with the students in a close and friendly manner without distance.
The attorney also argued that the client had worked to ensure the students could have a comfortable time at the academy, but that the client's inexperience and carelessness had led to results different from the client's intent, leaving the students with bad memories and pain, and that the client was sincerely contrite and was showing remorse for those past days each day in deep guilt.
As evidence of being sincerely remorseful, the client also submitted a letter of apology.
Emphasizing That the Client's Acquaintances Are Submitting Pleas
The Seongnam indecent act by compulsion attorney also submitted letters of appeal from the director of the client's workplace, fellow instructors, and acquaintances.
The director and fellow instructors, who had observed the client closely over a long period, as well as the client's middle and high school classmates, emphasized that the client had been full of passion for teaching the students.
In addition, they strongly argued that the client had worked to communicate with the students in a friendly manner and to treat them equally on an even footing, and had carried out the work of an instructor with sincerity, respecting each student's individual characteristics.
The client's acquaintances also pointed to the client's having taken time to answer students even after class ended, emphasizing that the client was ordinarily diligent and a person with a deep sense of responsibility as an instructor, and expressing how unfortunate this case was, and through their firm belief that the client would never let such a thing happen again, they pleaded for leniency toward the client.
Emphasizing the Victims' Wish Not to Punish and the Efforts to Recover the Harm
Through the portions of the victims' statements indicating that they did not wish for the client to be punished, the attorney argued that a majority of the victims had expressed a wish not to punish.
The attorney also emphasized that, for victims with whom a settlement had not been reached, the client had worked to substantially restore the harm the victims would have suffered, including by making a deposit.
