범죄피해자 보호·지원을 위한 네트워크 구축과 경찰의 역할에 관한 연구

Abstract

The Police is the first criminal justice institute to arrive at the crime scene. The role of the police is very important in protecting and supporting victims that require urgency. Therefore, the construction of an networks for crime victim protection and support should be considered a priority. However, the discussion on the role of police protection and support for victims so far lacked. This study assessed the current situation and the activities of victim protection and support through empirical research that targets police officers and civilian activists. In addition, we suggest a integrated networks for the victim protection, support, and specifically proposes a desirable role of the police. As a result, there is a need to build victim protection and support networks which police hub features enhanced. This network is capable of direct and indirect police support to crime victims. However, police should be the priority in some areas directly support for victims, and the victim counselling services such as optional or cooperative support to be distinguished is efficient. Ultimately the police victim services should be optionally depending on the priority.
