Wang Kailing, prosecutor of the Hualien District Prosecutor's Office, has long been committed to protecting the rights and interests of crime victims. While pursuing crimes, she deeply considers victim protection and empathy. She once solved the sensational case of a vicious substitute teacher surnamed Lin from an elementary school in Hualien who secretly photographed several girls in the school toilet. When the defendant deleted the images and resisted the defence, Wang Kailing convicted him with rigorous comparison of digital evidence. The court sentenced Wolf Master in the first instance and he should run until February 2011! Wang Kailing's professional and heart-warming performance won the honor of "Justice Protection Group" in the judicial rights category of this year's Ministry of Justice's "Newborn Guardian Award". She received public recognition in Taipei a few days ago.
The Hualien District Prosecutor's Office pointed out today that Prosecutor Wang Kailing has been in public service for 15 years and has always implemented the concept of "equal emphasis on pursuing legal prosecution and protecting victims." In September 2024, a case of a 32-year-old male tutor surnamed Lin following a female student into the toilet and secretly filming the toilet from bottom to top was revealed at an elementary school in Hualien. After being questioned by his parents, Mr. Lin even concealed his knowledge and refused to report it, deleted the images on his mobile phone and continued to commit crimes. At that time, prosecutor Wang Kailing took over the investigation. After Wang Kailing petitioned to detain Lin Nan and was approved, she still showed a high degree of professionalism when faced with the dilemma of collecting evidence that the digital images had been deleted and could not be restored. She carefully compared the intersection monitors and digital evidence to reconstruct Lin Nan's crime of following and assaulting 29 girls 55 times.

In the end, Mr. Lin was prosecuted by the prosecutor. The Hualien District Court found that Mr. Lin had completed 2 times and attempted 46 times in court. According to the "Child and Juvenile Sexual Exploitation Prevention Ordinance" and other 48 crimes, he was severely sentenced to a total of 183 February and should be sentenced to 11 years and 2 months in prison! Prosecutor Wang Kailing's unremitting investigation not only protected the rights of many murdered children, but also prompted the education authorities to comprehensively review the faculty recruitment review mechanism and campus toilet safety protection, actively promote digital gender-based violence harm reduction education, and conduct in-depth campus publicity on the prevention and evidence preservation of crimes such as gender-based violence and online fraud. This will enhance the ability of teachers and students to identify risks and safeguard their own rights and interests, and extend judicial benefits to the safety of all campuses.
In addition to solving major cases of candid filming on campus, Wang Kailing also pays special attention to "warmth and harm reduction" when handling domestic violence and children and children cases. During the prosecution, she combined social and medical resources, listened to the needs of children and children in warm talking rooms, and used plea bargaining to reduce the secondary harm to children and children facing their abusive mothers in court. In cases of stalking and domestic violence, she decisively applied for detention and protection orders, and in fraud cases, she actively pursued criminal proceeds to compensate for the victim's losses. During the examination, he comforted the heartbroken family members with delicate empathy, showing the warm power of justice.
When handling sexual assault and cases involving vulnerable victims, we attach great importance to the privacy and personal dignity of the victim, and explain legal concepts and procedures in an easy-to-understand manner to help the victim understand the judicial process and reduce the anxiety caused by the lawsuit. During the examination process, we also listen to the needs of the family members with empathy and provide professional explanation and support. In terms of safeguarding the personal safety of victims, when Wang Kailing handles cases of domestic violence and stalking and harassment, she uses measures such as applying for detention and protection orders in court to prevent victims from continuing to be harmed based on the specific circumstances and legal requirements of the case.
The "Ministry of Justice Conference Commends Personnel and Groups for Promoting the Protection of Crime Victims" was held on the 2nd at the Guoguang Hall of the China Petroleum Building in Taipei. Wang Kailing attended in person to receive the Xinsheng Guardian Award. The Hualien District Prosecutor's Office said that Prosecutor Wang's award demonstrated the results of long-term professionalism and empathy in implementing victim protection. In the future, the District Prosecutor's Office will continue to deepen cross-disciplinary cooperation with the Hualien Branch of the Criminal Protection Association and police, social affairs, medical and other fields to implement the "victim-centered" protection concept and give the villagers a more solid judicial backing.
