The prison sentence was confirmed for a man in his 40s who caused a fatal accident by driving a minor who drank alcohol.
The first part of the Supreme Court (Presidential Judge Park Jeong-hwa) announced today (19th) that it has confirmed a court case convicted of 42-year-old A, who was charged with a dangerous driver homicide, drunk driving, and unlicensed driving teacher.
A restaurant chef in Gyeongsan City, Gyeongsangbuk-do, had a drink together while having dinner with Group B, who worked part-time at his store in March last year. At the time, Army B was 17 years old.
At 8 pm, Mr. A said, "My son has been teaching driving since he was 5 years old. You can drive too." He handed him the keys to the car and made him drive to a nearby bar. Mr. A, who left the bar at around 11 pm, again made Army B take the steering wheel.
Group B, who was intoxicated with a blood alcohol concentration of 0.131%, suffered a major accident when driving at 96 km/h in the 70 km/h section of the speed limit and hitting the front of the car coming from the opposite side across the median. In this accident, three of the passengers were seriously injured and two were killed on site.
The first trial court pointed out that "Mr. A has abandoned his duty to protect the boy as an adult by drinking and driving a student and a minor, Army B." Also, mentioning that Mr. A has been punished twice for drunk driving in the past, he pointed out that he was unable to abandon the habit of drinking and driving and even spread this to Army B.
At the same time, the court sentenced Mr. A to three years and six months in prison, saying that although military B is primarily responsible for the accident, severe punishment for Mr. A is inevitable. Regarding Group B, "Drinking or driving without a license at the recommendation of Mr. A left an indelible wound on the victims. As an actor, the responsibility is very heavy, but we considered the agreement with the victims." He was sentenced to irregularly malformed sentences of 6 months a year and a short period of 1 year.
In the appeal trial, Mr. A continued to claim that he was "drunk, mentally and mentally weak," but the appellate court said, "As Mr. A left the pub, he paid the card directly, and found the vehicle that Army B had been driving and opened the door by himself. I did not admit it, saying, "I opened it and boarded it." The Supreme Court also retained the court judgment and confirmed the sentence.
