Stalking Punishment Defense Case | Client Charged With Stalking, Non-Referral

The client, who is charged with the crime of stalking, broke up with his girlfriend A a few months ago.

The client clung to her at first, but after A refused contact, he did not contact her.

However, now that several months have passed, A reported the client on stalking charges.

The client needed a prompt resolution of the case because he was about to start at a new company.

Facing the risk of criminal punishment for the crime of stalking, the client requested assistance from a stalking attorney.

Stalking acts are specified in the Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking.

The representative acts of such stalking are as follows.

The penalty levels for stalking are as follows.

It is true that the client contacted the victim even after breaking up with her, but this was simply a greeting to check on her well-being.

In addition, after the victim refused contact, he made no contact whatsoever.

Accordingly, it was argued that the client's contact was not of a nature that could create a sense of fear, and that this, too, did not occur after he recognized the victim's intent to refuse.

The client was soon scheduled to join a new company located in another region.

As a result, the possibility of contact with the victim would also naturally disappear.

The attorney therefore emphasized that the likelihood of the client reoffending was markedly low.

The client stated that, although he had no intention of creating fear in A, he wished to apologize if A felt displeasure due to the contact.

The client also reflected on his conduct and pledged not to contact A in the future.

On this basis, it was emphasized that the client was sufficiently reflecting on his conduct and had conveyed an intention to apologize to the victim.

This was the story of a client who was nearly subject to criminal punishment after becoming involved in an allegation of a stalking crime, but was able to receive a non-referral decision thanks to the assistance of a stalking attorney.

As this shows, with the enforcement of the Act on Punishment of Crime of Stalking, stalking crimes are now punished more severely than before.
