Obscenity via Telecommunication Media Police Investigation Case | Non-referral for a Charged Client Through a Sexual Crime Lawyer's Assistance

The client, who is facing police questioning for obscenity via telecommunication media, recently saw a post on the internet.

Angered by the content of the post, the client ended up leaving a malicious comment on the post.

However, the person concerned, who happened to see the client's comment, reported it as the 🔗crime of obscenity via telecommunication media.

As a result, the client became subject to police questioning for obscenity via telecommunication media.

Facing the risk of criminal punishment, the client requested assistance from a sexual offense attorney regarding responding to police questioning in order to defend against punishment.

The Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes sets out the definition of obscenity via telecommunication media.

Therefore, if you cause sexual shame to another person by using a telecommunication medium such as a cell phone, computer, or telephone, you may be charged with obscenity via telecommunication media.

Obscenity via telecommunication media is punishable under Article 13 of the Act on Special Cases concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes.

If an actual custodial sentence is imposed for obscenity via telecommunication media, the person may become subject to personal information registration, so greater caution is required.

The sex crime attorney argued, on the basis of relevant precedent, that the client's comment did not constitute the crime of obscenity via telecommunication media.

After analyzing precedent concerning the purpose of the crime of obscenity via telecommunication media, the attorney argued that there was no ‘sexual purpose.’

On this basis, it was possible to establish that the client's comment was made for the purpose of mere criticism and lacked any purpose of sexual desire.

The sexual offense attorney argued that the content of the posts the client had written was not severe in tone.

Even at the time of the investigation, the relevant posts contained criticisms of a harsher tone than the client's comments.

On this basis, it could be proven that the content the client had written was a milder expression compared to other comments.

The sexual offense attorney argued that the client was deeply reflecting on the client's own conduct.

The client keenly felt the harm the victim must have suffered due to the client's conduct and expressed a wish to reach a settlement with the victim.

It was possible to assert that the client has the will to make efforts to restore the harm to the victim.

This was the account of a client who came to undergo a telecommunication media obscenity police investigation due to a malicious comment, but who was able to conclude the case with a non-referral thanks to the assistance of a sexual crimes attorney.

The crime of obscenity via telecommunication media can lead not only to criminal punishment but also, if a sentence of an actual custodial sentence or heavier is imposed, to disclosure of personal information.

Therefore, if you are implicated in telecommunication media obscenity, it is advisable to promptly receive assistance from a specialist attorney and establish a strategy to defend against punishment.
