South Korea sentences metaverse sexual abuser to 4 years imprisonment
South Korean authorities have sentenced a man to four years in prison for collecting sexual content of underaged victims he met on the metaverse, South Korea-based MoneyS reported on Sept. 11. According to the report, the 30-year-old man met minors via a South Korean metaverse platform and induced them with gifts to send their videos and images.
The unnamed man committed his criminal activities by lying about his age and using a young person’s avatar. His activities spanned between December 2021 and March 2022. Besides the four-year prison term, the man was also banned from working in any entity involving minors and the disabled. He must also attend a mandatory treatment program for sexual offenders for 80 hours. The sentencing was mostly for targeting and sexually exploiting minors as he did not distribute the content or make a profit from it.
