Obscenity via Telecommunication Media Suspension of Indictment Case | A Case in Which a Client Charged with Obscenity via Telecommunication Media Received a Suspension of Indictment

The client received a photograph and contact information of a woman through a third party he came to know in a Telegram chat room.

The photograph showed the woman with part of her chest exposed.

He then exchanged messages with the woman through KakaoTalk, and the client used expressions that induced sexual shame in the other party.

The victim, who felt offended by this, subsequently filed a complaint against the client for obscenity via telecommunication media.

At first, the client, who considered the matter minor, responded to the police investigation without retaining an attorney.

However, the case was referred to the prosecution, and as a result he came to feel the burden of criminal punishment and social stigma.

Wishing to avoid punishment by any means, the client came to a sexual offense specialist attorney and requested a consultation regarding the possibility of a suspension of indictment for obscenity via telecommunication media.

Suspension of indictment refers to a disposition in which, although suspicion of a crime is recognized, the prosecutor declines to bring a public prosecution after taking into consideration circumstances such as the offender's age, character, intelligence, motive for the offense, and result.

As one of the non-prosecution dispositions, it refers to concluding the case without punishment, even though suspicion of the crime is recognized.

The client likewise sought to avoid punishment through a suspension of indictment.

Accordingly, the sexual offense specialist attorney established a strategy of focusing on proving that "the necessity of punishment is low" rather than denying the client's suspicion itself.

The obscenity via telecommunication media attorney closely proved that the client had no criminal record whatsoever and that the contact with the victim had also taken place with the victim's consent.

In particular, the attorney clearly established through materials and statements that there was only a single sexual message, emphasizing the minor nature of a first offense.

The attorney emphasized that, in response to the victim's negative reaction immediately after sending the message at issue, the client immediately stopped all obscene conduct and did not make any further attempt to contact the victim.

Through this, the attorney effectively conveyed to the court the client's responsible attitude, the one-time nature of the incident, and the low concern of reoffending.

The attorney specializing in obscenity via telecommunication media argued that the suspect had sincerely made efforts toward an amicable settlement with the victim.

To prove this, the victim's written statement and records of settlement attempts were submitted.

The attorney also submitted, on several occasions, a letter of reflection expressing deep remorse, thereby impressing the client's sincerity upon the court.
