학교 운영 분쟁 중 명예훼손 - 항소심 유죄 판결 유지
판결 결과
항소 기각, 원심 유죄 판결(벌금 100만 원) 유지
사건 개요
회사(학교) 운영을 두고 분쟁 중이던 근로자가:
- 피해자의 정신과 진료 사실을 교실에서 공연히 언급
- 피해자의 횡령 혐의를 담은 글을 게시
해고 통지 후 학부모총회에서 이러한 발언·글 게시를 함.
핵심 쟁점 및 판단
1. 발언의 명예훼손 성립
피해자의 정신과 진료 사실은 극히 사적인 개인 신상 정보로, 회사 운영 정상화와 직접 관련이 없음. 발언 경위상 피해자에 대한 불만으로 비난하기 위한 것으로 판단됨.
- 결론: 공공의 이익 위법성 조각 인정 안 됨
2. 글 게시의 명예훼손 성립
- 글 내용이 전체적으로 허위 (사소한 수준이 아님)
- "횡령죄"는 실제 퇴직금 중간정산, 세무조사 등을 과장·왜곡한 것
- 분쟁 중 피해자를 공격하기 위한 목적이 명백
- 결론: 공공의 이익 보호 명목 불가, 비방 목적 인정
실무적 시사점
개인의 사적 정보 공개는 공공의 이익으로 인정되기 어렵고, 직무 관련 비판도 구체적 사실과의 실질적 관련성·사실성이 필수입니다.
