Shin and Sim, two South Korean middle school students, were run over and killed by a U.S. Army vehicle in South Korea on June 13, 2002 on their way to a friend’s birthday party.

The two U.S. soldiers responsible for their death were subsequently indicted by South Korean public prosecutors, but acquitted by a U.S. Court.
