I have a question about a false school violence report.

If you are in an unfair situation due to a false school violence report, proving the facts is most important.

First, you should secure as much objective material as possible that can show the relationship with the relevant student, the degree of interaction, and the circumstances at the time of the incident.

For example, it is helpful to collect and submit on-campus CCTV, conversation contents at the time (text messages, messengers, SNS, etc.), statements or letters of leniency from friends, and the public opinion within the class.

Since the School Violence Countermeasure Deliberation Committee (school violence committee) makes judgments based not only on the victim's statement but also on the explanation of the student designated as the perpetrator, initial response is very important.

You must explain in specific and consistent logic that this is a false school violence report and that you are not the perpetrator.

It is desirable to receive assistance from a specialized attorney as much as possible to organize materials and respond.

Also, since attorneys can accompany you when the school violence committee is held, attending with your attorney for defense response is a good method.

In particular, if a report was intentionally made differently from the facts, responsibility for the false report can be pursued, so depending on the situation, there is room for subsequent response such as defamation.

However, since the school violence committee, unlike criminal procedures, may not have clear standards for fact presumption, it is recommended to receive assistance from a legal expert at an early stage to prevent unfair results.

Through collaboration with our firm's evidence investigation and digital forensic center, we can secure evidence such as alibis and witness statements.
