The judgment of the court below is reversed.
A defendant shall be punished by imprisonment for one year.
provided, however, that the sentence shall be imposed for two years from the date this judgment becomes final and conclusive.
Reasons
The Defendant appealed that the lower court’s punishment is heavy.
The lower court determined
Considering the various circumstances shown in the oral argument, the main sentence of the lower court does not seem to be unreasonable.
However, considering that the defendant's mistake is divided in depth, family relations, and the defendant's current pregnancy status, community service for 200 hours seems to be somewhat unreasonable.
The judgment below is reversed and the punishment is re-determined.
