Seongnam Criminal Attorney Assistance Case | Assisting a Client Charged With Illegal Filming to Obtain a Suspension of Indictment

The client is an ordinary office worker. He explained that he had recently been suffering from depression for various reasons.

Then one day, the client, who had boarded the subway with a woman, could not restrain a momentary urge and secretly filmed the woman's body with his cellphone.

He was caught by another passenger who was on board, his illegal filming was discovered, and this led to a criminal complaint, leaving him facing punishment.

In order to avoid an actual custodial sentence and defend against punishment as much as possible, the client came to the Seongnam criminal attorney.

When a person, like the client, secretly films using a camera without the consent of the person being filmed, this constitutes the crime of 🔗illegal filming using a camera.

The crime of illegal filming using a camera is established not only for simple filming but also when the material is distributed without authorization.

To determine whether the crime of illegal filming using a camera is committed, the purpose and unlawfulness of the filming, as well as the sexual humiliation felt by the person filmed, often operate in combination.

For this reason, determining whether the crime of illegal filming using a camera is committed requires a professional legal review, so receiving the help of an attorney can be helpful.

The laws governing punishment for the crime of illegal filming using a camera are as follows.

The Seongnam criminal attorney emphasized that the client was not the kind of person who would normally engage in this type of illegal filming and that he committed this offense after a spontaneous lapse in judgment.

The client conveyed a sincere apology to the victim along with a sum of money to compensate for the harm and reached a settlement, emphasizing that the victim also did not wish for the client to be punished.

The Seongnam criminal attorney emphasized that the client had been a law-abiding citizen with no prior criminal charges or record of criminal punishment, asking that this be taken into account in determining the punishment.
