오송참사의 조사 및 수사과정 고찰

Abstract

Based on government agency data and media reports, this study examined the progress of the Osong disaster investigation and examined several characteristic issues that have emerged in the process of police investigation, inspection by the State Affairs Coordination Office, and prosecution investigation.
 First, Chungbuk Police Agency after the Osong disaster, lost its power when the Office of Public Service Management initiated service inspection. Since then, the investigative agency has been changed from police to prosecution, and the police investigation headquarters has been disbanded. Second, the Office of the Public Service Management requested the Supreme Prosecutors' Office to investigate those involved in the case, including civilians, through rapid inspection activities. The fact that the Office of Public Service Management will investigate civilians and request an investigation is an activity that publicly expressed that it will no longer stay at the public official inspection agency but play its role as an preparatory investigation agency that investigates civilians. Third, based on the request for investigation, the Supreme Prosecutors' Office established an investigation headquarters at the Cheongju District Prosecutors' Office, and the case has been investigated and investigated so far. This investigation and investigation behavior is typical of prosecutors opening investigations through a request for investigation by a state agency, and is based on each item of Article 4 (1) 1 of the Prosecutors' Office Act, and in the case of important crimes prescribed by Presidential Decree (a item of the same issue), it is outside the limits of the delegation legislation and is at the center of controversy over unconstitutionality and illegality.
