Judgment on Defendant’s argument

1. The assertion;

The defendant is in charge of driving duties at the Daejeon District Public Prosecutor's Office and is not directly engaged in investigation-related affairs, so the fact of issuing a search and seizure warrant that has been divulged to Kim ① cannot be said to be a confidential information that the defendant has learned in the course of performing his duties.

2. Determination

Although the defendant did not directly take charge of, or assist in, the affairs related to the search and seizure warrant of this case, if the defendant discovered the office of the above search and seizure warrant issued by using the fact that he/she could freely access the office of the general public on duty, it constitutes a secret that he/she becomes aware of in the course of performing his/her duties.

Reasons for sentencing

The act of divulging confidential information learned in the course of performing duties as a state public official who requires high level of loyalty itself is subject to criticism. The time of the crime in this case was sufficiently predicted that the crime in this case was committed by the persons suspected of the crime in question, who had destroyed evidence while denying the crime, and those who had become aware of the fact that the seizure and search warrant was issued by the defendant was attempted to destroy the evidence before the execution of the seizure and search. The defendant was working for 20 years at the prosecutor's office and could interfere with the investigation through the above process.

On the other hand, the crime of this case appears to have not been premised on any consideration that the defendant was unable to observe upon the request of Kim ① in connection with the admission of the university of food, and that the criminal act of this case does not seem to have interfered with the investigation of the actual related case due to the criminal act of this case, there are favorable sentencing factors such as the defendant's failure to perform his duties in good faith for 20 years, and the fact that the defendant had faithfully performed duties as a public official in charge of inspection for 20 years, and that there are favorable sentencing factors such as the above sentencing factors. The punishment of this case is determined as ordered in consideration of each of the above sentencing factors.
