Judgment on the Defense Counsel's argument
1. The assertion;
The defense counsel asserts that since the defendant was employed at the convenience store for the purpose of theft and stolen property, theft, not occupational embezzlement, should be recognized.
2. Determination
Even if an assistant in possession under the Civil Act exercises de facto control over the article, it can be seen as the subject of custody under the Criminal Act (see Supreme Court Decisions 68Do1222, Oct. 29, 1968; 70Do649, May 12, 1970; 81Do3396, Mar. 9, 1982, etc.).
According to the evidence duly adopted and examined by this court, the victims returned to the defendant with convenience store and goods at the new wall time, and the defendant alone has convenience store. If the facts are found, the defendant is only an employee who assists in the possession of the victims who are convenience store owners, but at the time of the crime, he can be deemed to have kept under the actual control of the above victims' safe or goods at the convenience store. The above crimes committed by the defendant constitute the crime of occupational embezzlement by acquiring another person's property under his custody.
Ultimately, defense counsel's assertion is not accepted.
