Psicopatia : uma análise da culpabilidade e da aplicação das sanções penais.

Abstract

The present work deals with the study of psychopathy and its characteristics, entering the field of Criminal Law and Criminal Procedure, with an emphasis on addressing culpability and its exclusions, with the consequent criminal liability. In these terms, we ask: considering that psychopathy is seen as a personality disorder and not as a mental illness, if the psychopathic agent is considered unimputable. The approach method used in this work is the monographic deductive, starting from a physical and virtual bibliographic study, in doctrinal and literary works, in addition to jurisprudential research. The study of the theme is of paramount importance, since it is motivated by reasons of a social order, since the criminal and perverse practices of psychopathic agents affect society as a whole. In addition, with the lack of a specific device to support the protection of psychopathy, there is difficulty in the application of criminal sanctions by magistrates, and it is necessary to analyze culpability and its exclusions.
