Reincarceration of former sexual delinquant
Fri, September 13, 3:30 to 4:45pm, Faculty of Law, University of Bucharest, Floor: Ground floor, Amphitheater 1 „Paul Negulescu”Abstract
To date, the results on recidivism have not considered the nature of the new offence. This presentation is an analysis of the results based on the follow-up of persons released from prison in 2002 who had been imprisoned for at least one sexual offence and whose case had been examined by a judge in 2008. Although these data are 15 years old, no further surveys covering a five-year observation period have been conducted since then. A new quantitative study, commissioned by the Ministry of Justice, followed the same methodology, using two computerized data sources: the Genesis penal file and the national judicial statistics file. The results obtained after three years of observation show almost identical overall recidivism rates.
