The Haenam Branch of the Gwangju District Court acquitted Kim this afternoon (6th) in a retrial hearing of Kim, who is accused of continuing murder.
It's been nine years since the retrial was decided.
Kim was sentenced to life imprisonment in March 2003 for feeding his father alcohol with sleeping pills and abandoning his body in Wando, Jeollanam-do.
However, Kim applied for a retrial, saying that there was coercion and illegality by the police during the investigation at the time, and the court decided to start a retrial in 2015.Attorney Park Joon-young, a lawyer specializing in retrial, defended Kim
