2. Determination

앞서 든 증거에 의하여 인정되는 다음과 같은 사정, 즉 피해자는 수사기관에서 일관되게 피고인으로부터 "찍어도 돼?"라는 말을 듣거나 촬영에 동의한 사실이 없다고 진술한 점, 피고인은 2019. 4. 3. 경찰에서 조사받을 당시에는, 피고인이 피해자에게 "사진 찍어도 돼?"라고 묻자 피해자가 "뭐라고?" 하길래 피고인이 촬영하였고 피해자가 찍어도 된다는 이야기는 하지 않았지만 찍지 말라고도 이야기하지는 않았으니 동의를 안 했다고 생각하지도 않았다고 진술하였다가 2019, 11. 11. 검찰에서 조사받을 당시에는, 피해자에게 "사진을 찍어도 되냐"고 했는데 피해자가 "어?"라고 하길래 피고인이 피해자에게 "그럼 나 사진 찍는다."라고 이야기했고 피해자가 "어"라고 평어조로 말을 해서 그것이 동의인 줄 알고 촬영했다고 진술했다가 이 법정에서는 다시 위와 같이 주장하는바, 피해자로부터 동의를 받은 경위에 대한 피고인의 진술이 일관되지 않고 있는 점, 피고인은 이 사건으로 조사가 시작되자 피해자에게 문자메시지로 용서를 구하면서, 피해자가 "유포하겠다고 협박한 거 증거제출도 다 했다."라고 하자, 피고인이 "전혀 그럴(사진 유포를 말하는 것으로 보인다) 생각도 없었고, 하려면 벌써 했다. 나는 그게 방어책이라고 생각하고 그랬다. 죄송하다"라고 대답하였고, 이에 피해자가 "뭐에 대한 방어?, 아깐 몰래 찍은 적도 없다며? 아주 허언이 몸에 냈네"라고 하자 피고인이 "아뇨, 볼펜으로 찍었다길래, 정말 죄송하다. 한번만 용서해 달라"라고 답변하였으며, 이에 피해자가 "그럼 뭘로 찍었는데"라고 묻자 "핸드폰이요, 정말 유포하고 그럴 생각 절대 안 했습니다"라고 답변하였고, 피해자가 몰카 찍은 거 벌 받아야지, 뭐 어쩌겠어"라고 하자 피고인이 "죄송합니다"라고 하였는바, 당시 피고인은 피해자를 강간했다.는 점에 대하여는 부인하는 취지로 적극 대응하면서도, 위와 같은 대화내용을 보면, 자신에 대한 방어방법으로 생각하고 피해자의 사진을 찍었고, 볼펜모양의 카메라를 이용해서 촬영한 것은 아니며, 핸드폰으로 촬영한 것이고, 몰래 촬영한 점에 대하여는 죄송하다는 취지로 이해되는 점, 피고인이 이 사건 당일 16:36경부터 피해자 혹은 피해자의 지인 F으로부터 피고인이 훔쳐간 피해자의 돈 27만 원을 반환해 달라는 요구를 받고 수십회 가량 문자로 대화를 하면서 이를 거부하다가 그 다음날인 같은 달 15. 00:07 경 피해자의 계좌로 60,000원을 송금한 사실이 있는데, 위 대화내용에도 피해자 혹은 F이 피고인에게 10만 원이라도 반환해 줄 것을 사정하면서도 피고인이 피해자의 신체를 촬영하였다는 점에 대한 대화내용은 전혀 없어 이 때까지도 피해자는 피고인이 피해자의 신체를 촬영한 사실은 모르고 있었던 것으로 보이는 점, 피고인의 검찰에서의 진술에 의하더라도 이 사건 사진을 찍은 후 피해자에게 사진을 보여주거나 사진에 대한 이야기를 나눈 사실은 없다는 것인 점, 이 사건 사진은 무음어플리케이션을 이용해서 촬영된 점, 이 사건 당시 피고인과 피해자는 성매매를 할 목적으로 처음 만난 사이로서 그러한 상황에서 피해자가 사진촬영에 동의한다는 것은 상당히 이례적으로 보이고, 촬영된 사진을 보더라도 촬영된 신체부분이나 구도에 비추어 피해자가 동의한 것으로는 보이지 않는 점 등을 종합해 보면, 피고인은 판시 범죄사실 기재와 같이 피해자의 동의를 받지 않은 채 피해자의 신체를 몰래 촬영한 사실이 충분히 인정된다.

Therefore, the above argument by the defendant and the defense counsel is without merit.
