Reasons

1. Summary of grounds for appeal;

A. Defendant 1 and Defendant 4 (1) as of November 10, 204, Defendant 1 and Defendant 4 (1) have lost the function of growing over 15 years prior to the age of 87, and thus, it is impossible to have sexual intercourse with the victim. Not only is it possible for the victim to have sexual intercourse, but also there is no fact that the son and son used the son to use the son’s shoulder, etc. by force. (2) Defendant 4’s indecent act by force was committed by force on November 10, 2004, there was no fact between Defendant 1’s house located outside of the Chungcheongnam-do, Chungcheongnam-do, Yan-gun, Yan-gun, and there was no fact of indecent act by force on the part of the victim. (3) Nevertheless, the court below found Defendant 1 guilty of each of the facts charged of this case on the sole basis of the victim’s statement without credibility, thereby affecting the conclusion of the judgment.

B. Defendant 3

The sentence imposed by the court below on the above defendant is too unreasonable.

C. Prosecutor (In all of the Defendants, etc.)

The sentence imposed by the court below to the defendants is too uneasible and unfair.

2. Determination

A. Judgment on the mistake of facts by Defendant 1 and 4

In light of the above defendants' assertion that there was no indecent act by force or sexual intercourse with the victim as the grounds for appeal, the court below rejected the above defendants' assertion in detail under the title "Judgment on each argument of the defendants 1 and 4", which is the same as the grounds for appeal of this case by the above defendants in the court below. In comparison with the above judgment of the court below, the judgment of the court below is just and it is not erroneous in the misapprehension of the rules of evidence, and there is no error of law that affected the conclusion of the judgment by misconception of facts against the rules of evidence. Therefore, the above defendants' assertion is without merit.

B. Determination on the assertion of unreasonable sentencing by Defendant 3 and prosecutor

According to the records, all the Defendants have been growing up to the point of time due to economic difficulties from the time when they live in South Korea, and they have not received school education at all or have retired from elementary school, thereby failing to read and write down Korean language, etc. The circumstances that fall short of normal conditions can be acknowledged.

However, each of the crimes of this case committed by the Defendants, who are in the relationship of the victim's friendship, white father, or the head of the family, has been sexually disabled by using the victim's age in the mental body condition (class 3 of intellectual disability) as a means to resolve his sexual desire, and rape or indecent act by force, and the content of the crime itself is contrary to the human body and the possibility of social criticism is very high. In addition, the victim was exposed to the above Defendants' sexual violence crime without any help from others, for a long time, by exposure to the above Defendants' sexual violence crime. In addition, even if the victim's counseling with a specialized institution, the victim appears to have suffered a big mental shock, which makes it difficult for the victim to physically and mentally, and even according to the result of the counseling with the victim at the specialized institution, it is inevitable for the victim to be his own primary group support, other than his family, who experienced a sense of inorganic mind, and it is inevitable for the Defendants to have been sentenced to the punishment of this case, which corresponds to these circumstances.

However, Defendant 1 is now aged 87 years old, and it is difficult for Defendant 1 to cope with a prison life due to 90∑ 90 and he was under direct walking walking force. In addition, considering the sentencing conditions under Article 51 of the Criminal Act, such as the defendants' age, occupation and career, personality and behavior, etc., given that the sentence imposed by the court below to Defendant 1 is appropriate and too unreasonable, and it is not acknowledged that it is unfair because the sentence imposed by the court below to Defendant 1 is too unreasonable, and thus, the prosecutor's assertion of unfair sentencing against Defendant 1 is without merit. Since the court below's punishment imposed by Defendant 2, 3, and 4 is deemed unfair because it is too unreasonable, the prosecutor's assertion of unfair sentencing against Defendant 2, 3, and 4 has merit, while Defendant 3's assertion of unfair sentencing is without merit.

3. Conclusion

Therefore, since the appeal by Defendant 1 and the appeal by the prosecutor against the above defendant is without merit, all of them are dismissed in accordance with Article 364(4) of the Criminal Procedure Act, and since the prosecutor's appeal against Defendant 2, 3, and 4 is with merit, the part against Defendant 2, 3, and 4 of the judgment of the court below in accordance with Article 364(6) of the Criminal Procedure Act is reversed, and this decision
