[In-It] A body abandoned in a construction site, Finland turned over'Happy'

Last weekend, I went to a candlelight memorial service to commemorate the death of a boy.

After being mass beaten by three friends, the boy was dumped in a corner of a construction site, ending his life for 15 years.

People refrained from gathering in person because of coronavirus, but the candles brought by the citizens lit up a cold winter night in the north.

I stood in front of the candlelight for a while and meditated on the boy's life and death.

His life may have been more painful than death.

Since I was in kindergarten, I have been constantly bullied, and from a few years ago I have been left to a child protection organization for family problems and have lived there.

He is remembered as an introspective, kind, and talented student to those around him.

Several months before his death, wounds were found on the student's body several times, but he said he was silent about the perpetrator.

On the day of the incident, it was confirmed that he was beaten with an iron pipe for several hours and was choked, but the autopsy revealed that he could not even resist even once.

The night I returned from the memorial service, I thought I had to share it with other people, so I posted a brief explanation with photos on social media (SNS).

Soon a comment was posted saying, "Even in Finland that the education system is good... it's shocking...".

These days, in Korea, it is known that the image of Finland itself and Finland's education has improved considerably.

However, this is also a society where the good and the wicked coexist, and there are school violence (halk) and bullying (bullying).

As far as I can remember, this is the first time that a candlelight memorial service has been held nationwide in memory of victims of youth violence incidents.

The reasons Finns are paying more attention to this incident are that the killings of three 16-year-old boys were quite brutal, that the process was filmed like a sadist, and that the victim and the perpetrator were each four years old from kindergarten. It's because it was something I knew.

The perpetrators were sentenced to 12, 11, and 9 years, respectively, at the first trial.

In Finland, similar to Korea, there is a law to protect minors.

Students under the age of 15 cannot be punished, and those aged 15-17 have a maximum sentence of 12 years, even if they commit murder.

However, it is said that the perpetrators of this abuse are demanding a lower sentence.

As children who enjoyed computer professional wrestling games, they claimed that it was a murder without intention, because they lost a sense of reality about how much attack they had to kill.

Some Finnish media have shown that they symbolize the devil'The Great King of Paris'. It is also called as (drawing).

There is high public opinion that it should be punished severely by revealing intentionality.

At present, additional psychological appraisals are being made on the perpetrators, and the Finns are watching with great interest what kind of punishment will be finally imposed in the sentencing that will reflect this result.

Since last year, reports of youth violence and murder have been unusually frequent in the Finnish media.

It is said that juvenile crime last year increased several times from the previous year.

The number of cases has increased, the age has been lowered, and the behavior has become more brutal and violent, which is shocking Finnish society.

Some people assume that the cause of this phenomenon is due to corona.

The fact that student management has been neglected while taking online classes is that students who are stressed after losing a place to go to Corona become more easily exposed to alcohol or drugs than before and wield violence.

The number of calls to report domestic violence in Finland has been increasing since the coronavirus, but it may be that the length of time staying at home has increased and the family problem has become more severe.

In addition to the immediate punishment of the perpetrators, the Finnish media are showing a lot of interest in the long-term solution as well as the investigation of the underlying and underlying causes.

Of course, the killer is responsible for the murder, but the responsibility to protect the weak is because he believes that he belongs to the society in which he belongs.

The common point of view of experts in each field is prevention rather than visit after the drug.

Hannu Lauerma, author of the book The Anatomy of Evil and a renowned Finnish criminal psychologist, used violence and psychopathic or sociopathic tendencies against children under 10 years of age. Insist that finding in is the key.

The brain develops until the age of 20, but antisocial and psychopathic features are already revealed from the age of 3-4.

He argues that children who are impulsive, lie well and lack empathy should be managed from an early age before the situation gets worse.

It is said that if you apply through a systematic system such as empathy training, you can reverse the path of growing up as a criminal.

Of course, he stresses that the government needs a lot of three-dimensional support for these children.

Just in time, the Finnish Ministry of Justice has also launched a pilot program to help troubled youths early this year.

Named'Velitski', the program aims to early detect and support youth who are likely to become criminals.

'Early discovery' is also the keyword here.

Therefore, the target is youth under the age of 15 who do not have a criminal record.

For each selected youth, one dedicated social welfare agent is attached.

Not to monitor, but to closely support the youth's normal growth.

The reason why teenagers go home, not the office, is because they recognize that it is difficult for children who are unable to do daily activities at home to seek outside help.

Adolescents who receive these services will be able to easily receive all necessary support services through a dedicated social worker.

Dedicated personnel should be ready to run whenever the youth is needed outside of normal office hours.

The program believes that the key to bringing problem youth back is the existence of someone who can easily ask for help and the trust that they and the youth have built up.

At first glance, it would cost a lot of money to run a private social worker, but the person in charge introduces it as a way to reduce the government budget in the long run.

The reason is that when a problem adolescent becomes an adult and becomes alienated from society and causes harm, the cost to the society in which he belongs is much higher.

Currently, the program is being piloted in four municipalities in Finland.

One local government is arranging for professional counseling not only for adolescents but also for the entire family.

A person in charge of the Ministry of Justice is cautious, saying that the program's performance will not come quickly.

Because people don't change in the morning.

However, he says it is not impossible, and that continual efforts are needed.

These days, the eyes and ears of Korean people are focused on'Me Too' in the sports and entertainment world.

Now, when the past of so-called'public officials' of school violence is revealed, it seems that it is almost a fixed procedure to be beaten by public opinion and buried socially.

There are also voices that the current idiomatic'boys law' should be revised and more severe punishment should be imposed.

Of course, public opinion and strong penalties for adhering to'no tolerance' when it comes to school violence can partially contribute to reducing school violence.

However, I cannot erase the feeling that public debate related to school violence is too punishing.

I hope that more fundamental and long-term solutions will also be publicized.
