A sentence of 16 years imprisonment has been imposed on Reverend Lee Jae-rock (75), a minister of the Central People's Holiness Church, who was convicted of sexually assaulting several members of the church.
The 3rd Supreme Court (Juice Min-sook, Supreme Court Justice) was sentenced to 16 years in prison for a 10-year prison sentence in the appeals of Reverend Lee, who was accused of habitual rape, etc. The ruling was confirmed.
Pastor Lee has been charged with sexual assault and assault on nine of the Manmin Central Churches for 40 years.
The prosecution found that he was a large church leader with 130,000 believers who used sex, power, and religious beliefs to commit sex crimes by making the victims psychologically unresponsive.
The first trial stated that "from the young age, I attended the Manmin Central Holiness Church and believed that obedience to the deceased was a way to go to heaven. Sentenced to years.
In response to the request of the prosecution, the government also ordered 80 hours of sexual violence treatment programs and a 10-year job restriction for children and youth.
The second trial was further convicted when the prosecution changed the charges and prosecuted a single offense in which the first trial was not guilty. The sentence was increased to 16 years in prison.
The pastor said, "It is hard to think that the victims were deliberately and systematically dismissed and accused, and it was hard to say that they were in a state of psychological disability."
