형사사건에서의 고의성 판단: 도덕적 특성의 역할
Intentionality Judgement in the Criminal Case: The Role of Moral Character
허태균 (고려대학교)
초록
형사사건에서 고의성 판단은 사건 가해자에게 적용되는 혐의의 유․무죄 판단은 물론 처벌의 크기를 판단하는 근간이 되는 사실인정의 핵심적인 영역이다. 그러나 고의성이라는 개념은 행위자의 주관적 측면, 즉 그 행위자의 심리적 측면을 반영하고 있기 때문에 제 삼자가 이를 판단하는 것이 매우 어렵다. 따라서 고의성이 어떻게 판단되어지는가에 대한 물음은 형사사법체계는 물론 학계 내에서도 매우 중요한 문제로 다뤄지고 있다. 기존의 대표적 고의성 판단 모델들 중, ‘심적-상태 모델’은 행위 당시 행위자의 ‘예견가능성(믿음)’ 및 ‘욕망’ 요인이 고의성을 판단하는 중요한 요인이라고 주장한다. 이는 한국과 영미의 형법에서 고의성 판단 요소로 ‘지(知)적 요소’ 및 ‘의(意)적 요소’를 중요하게 고려하고 있는 것과 상통하는 것이다. 그러나 ‘도덕적-평가 모델’에서는 행위의 결과적 측면을 반영한 요인들, 즉 그러한 결과를 발생시킨 ‘행위자에 대한 비난가능성’ 및 ‘결과의 나쁨 정도’ 요인이 고의성 판단을 하는데 중요한 요인으로 작용한다고 주장한다. 최근에는 행위자의 행위 당시 심적-상태 요인이나 행위의 결과적 측면에 대한 도덕적-평가 요인보다 행위자의 ‘핵심-자기’ 요인이 고의성을 판단하는 데 보다 중요한 역할을 한다고 주장하는 ‘핵심-자기 일치 모델’이 등장했다. 그러나 이러한 모델들은 형사사건의 중요한 특징들, 즉, 사건의 결과는 항상 부정적일 수밖에 없다는 것과 그렇기 때문에 법적 처벌의 당사자인 행위자가 행위 당시 자신의 심적 상태를 진실하게 표명하는 일은 거의 없다는 것을 고려하지 못했다는 한계가 있다. 이에 본 연구에서는 기존의 고의성 판단 연구들과 형사사건의 특징들을 종합적으로 고려했을 때, 형사사건에서는 그 행위자가 본래 어떤 사람이었는가에 대한 추론이 고의성을 판단하는 데 가장 중요한 역할을 할 것이라는, 이른바 ‘도덕적-특성 모델’을 제안한다. 나아가 이와 관련하여 언론 및 형사사법기관에서 유념해야할 점과 추후 연구 방향에 대해 논하였다.

Abstract
Intentionality judgement in criminal cases is a core area of fact finding that is root of guilty and sentencing judgment on the defendant. However, the third party is not sure the intentionality because it reflects subjective aspect of agent. Thus, mechanism behind intentionality judgment is an important factor to be properly understood by the academia and the criminal justice system. However, previous studies regarding intentionality judgment models have shown inconsistent results. Mental-state models proposed foreseeability(belief) and desire of agent at the time of the offence as key factors in intentionality judgment. These factors consistent with central things on intentionality judgment in criminal law. However, key factors in moral-evaluation models are blameworthiness of agent and badness of outcome reflected on the consequent aspect of act. Recently, deep-self concordance model emerged suggesting important factors on intentionality judgment are not mental states and moral evaluations but individual’s deep-self. However, these models are limited in that they do not consider the important features of criminal cases, that the consequence of the case is inevitably negative, and therefore the actor who is a party to legal punishment rarely expresses his or her mental state at the time of the act. Therefore, this study suggests that, based on the existing intentionality judgment studies and the characteristics of the criminal case, the inference about who the agent was originally will play a key role in judging the intentionality in the criminal case. This is the moral-character model. Futhermore, In this regard, this study discussed what the media and criminal justice institutions should keep in mind and the directions for future research.
