Vigilante (비질란테)

ALL CHARACTERS, LOCATIONS AND INCIDENTS IN THIS ARE FICTITIOUS

I will now announce the ruling.

The accused stomped on and kicked the victim's head and chest multiple times

in front of their child for the sole reason of being offended,

resulting in the victim's death.

The accused has a history

of being punished for crimes of a similar manner in the past,

and a heavy sentence is inevitable for taking an innocent life

over a minor dispute.

However, considering

the fact that there was no intention to kill,

the fact that he tried his best to settle with the victim's family,

and the fact that he is being treated for mental illness,

and taking into account his deep remorse

and reflection on the crime,

I sentence him to three and a half years in prison.

Little shit.

Wake up!

Mom!

12 YEARS LATER

-(ENGINE STOPS) -(TIRES SCREECH)

Hello.

-(GROANS) -You son of a bitch!

How dare you call the cops on me.

-How dare you! -Why are you doing this?

You son of a bitch. Did you think I'd never find you?

Did you think so, you piece of shit?

Come here, you bastard.

-Why are you doing this? -Are you sorry?

-Yes, I'm sorry. -You should be, you shit.

-I'm sorry. -Yes, you should be sorry!

You son of a bitch.

You should be.

So you should be taught a lesson.

Call the cops on me.

You piece of shit.

You fucking loser.

Because of you, I had to go to the police station over nothing.

You son of a bitch.

God damn it.

What?

What are you looking at, you pieces of shit?

Call the police.

You. Go ahead and call the fucking cops on me.

Do it, and I will fucking kill you all!

That piece of shit.

Hey.

Who are you?

Are you following me?

Answer me, you bastard!

Choi Sungsoo, 18 criminal convictions.

How are you roaming freely like this?

How?

I can

because that's what the law decided, you bastard!

-(GROANING) -(BOTTLE CLATTERS)

God damn it...

Son of a bitch!

-(GROANS) -You can't be living like this.

My family was ruined because of you.

What kind of law is this?

Thank you. (PANTS)

For remaining a piece of shit.

VIGILANTE

Now, this graph shows the arrest rates for murder cases from 2018 to 2021

based on the crime statistics of the Supreme Prosecutors' Office.

As you can see, it's odd.

The arrest rates are over 100%.

So how did this happen?

It's because

these statistics include cold cases we've solved.

If we exclude the cold cases,

from 2012 to 2021,

the average arrest rate for murders is 98.5%.

-Professor. -Yes?

What about the rest of the cold cases?

Exactly.

Why haven't they been solved?

Maybe they're already serving time for other crimes like the Hwaseong Case.

Murder consists of a significant proportion

of first-time offenders.

But there is

a high possibility that they're not first-time offenders.

Then what if someone who committed murder in the past

is lucky enough to be sentenced for a petty crime?

When they are released...

While there is no statute of limitations for murder,

it's likely to be a long-term cold case.

In fact, it happens a lot.

It's something you have to keep working on as a police officer.

Having said that,

write down your opinions on this matter

and submit them by our next class.

Okay? That'll be all.

-That'll be all. -Sorry, guys.

-Let's go! Let's go!

Seonwook must not be feeling himself today.

Didn't he use to be a judoka?

It's not that.

It's that Jiyong is that good.

He's growing at an incredible pace.

Those two can go out in the field right now.

I know. But let's not show it.

They'll get full of themselves.

One full point.

MIN SEONWOOK, KIM JIYONG

Bow.

God, that bastard.

SEONPO STATION, UNPROVOKED ATTACK ARREST WARRANT REJECTED

You were so good today. I learned something new.

I totally let you win.

You may be better than me at everything else,

but not at judo.

Right. Hey.

That shampooing trick.

You used it at the National Sports Festival too, right?

Hey, it's good for preventing hair loss and it smells good.

It's freaking expensive.

I think I can beat you too, you punk.

By the way, use that expensive shampoo on me next time.

So that I can be fragrant in the club.

-(LAUGHS) -Crazy bastard.

-Jiyong. -Yes?

You should go clubbing with us before we get appointed.

I can't. You know I'm busy on weekends.

You can't be that busy, you bastard.

What's wrong with you?

I'm sleeping.

She dropped them again.

Ma'am.

Ma'am. Ma'am?

I told you, you have to tie them tighter.

Like this.

Done.

For your trouble.

Thank you.

Oh, wait.

Careful.

YONG GUKBAP RESTAURANT

Kim randomly attacked a stranger near Seonpo Station on the 27th last month,

and a warrant for his arrest was reviewed today.

It has been confirmed that it was rejected.

Last month, Kim broke into a house

near Seonpo Station, urinated,

and went on a rampage.

The resident was attacked while trying to stop him,

and his injuries require 18 weeks to recover.

Kim fled after committing the crime

and was arrested at his house a week later, on the third.

The court stated that they rejected the warrant

because Kim was sleeping and had no intention

to flee or destroy evidence.

The family of An, the victim, expressed their fear of retaliation,

and citizens are enraged by the court's decision.

They expressed their anger questioning whom the law is for.

Kim was held in custody,

and released around 10:00 p.m. after the warrant was rejected.

UNPROVOKED ATTACK NEAR SEONPO STATION. ARREST WARRANT REJECTED?

"Assaulted homeowner who tried to stop him from urinating on their property."

"Requires 18 weeks to recover."

"The arrest warrant was rejected."

My, my. You still live here?

Why the hell won't you move?

Because you have no money? Are you that poor?

Because of that bastard,

I even appeared on the news. It's fucking embarrassing.

What are you looking at, you little shit?

Do you want to die? Want me to beat you up like your dad?

-(WOMAN YELPS) -I suddenly want to pee.

I might wet myself. I really need to go.

"Did the law punish them properly?"

Who are you, bastard?

The pee got on me, you little...

You bastard.

You're dead today, you bastard!

Hold on. Stop. God damn it.

-(GROANS) -Fuck!
