A man who assaulted his ex and trespassed into her home... "First offense and promised not to reoffend" leads to suspended sentence

[Asia Economy Yeongnam Reporting Headquarters Reporter Kim Yong-woo] A man who assaulted his ex-girlfriend and trespassed into her residence was sentenced to a suspended prison term.

The Daegu District Court Criminal Division 10 (Judge Ryu Young-jae) announced on the 21st that Mr. A, who was prosecuted on charges of assault and trespassing for attacking his ex-girlfriend who refused to reconcile and unlawfully entering her home, was sentenced to 10 months in prison with a 2-year suspension.

He was also ordered to undergo probation, perform 320 hours of community service, and pay 4 million won in compensation.

According to the Daegu District Court, Mr. A was indicted for assaulting Ms. B, his ex-girlfriend, on November 19 last year in the hallway of a hospital building by hitting her with his hands and kicking her, causing injuries requiring two weeks of medical treatment.

On November 24, he is also charged with trespassing by following Ms. B’s younger brother into her apartment when he opened the front door while waiting for Ms. B to come out.

The court stated, “The victim briefly lost consciousness due to the assault, and the trespassing caused the victim and her family to consider moving due to the anxiety caused, indicating significant harm from the crime.”

“However, the defendant is a first-time offender, and he promised not to commit secondary harm or retaliatory crimes, which was taken into consideration in sentencing,” the court explained the reasoning behind the sentence.
