성폭력 법·정책을 통해 본 피해자의 권리-성폭력수사·재판시민감시단의 모니터링 결과분석을 중심으로-

This research aims examine how the sexual violence victims’ rights law is being applied. The method of research has been to analyze National Sexual Violence Center Association’s monitoring data on criminal proceedings of the past 10 years. Research has shown that the main proceedings include; lack of understanding and/ or professionalism from attitude, secondary victimization effect of the administrative act, which requires the victim to prove there was a serious level of violence and portion of victims who filed legal action against their perpetrators were found to experience secondary victimization. On the other hand, the research found improved understanding and/or professionalism, alleviated need for victims to prove a serious level of violence and intimidation, as well as new legal principles for the disabled and children victims. In this context, future efforts should be spent on enhancing sensitivity and creating other systematic support rather than establishing new and/or revisign laws. While this research cannot be used to generalize the current state of sexual victims, it does however provide significant insight into the victims’ experience in criminal proceedings.
