CRIMINOLOGICAL RESEARCH OF THE CRIMINAL'S PERSONALITY IN THE FIELD OF MEDICAL CRIMES
The article deals with one of the greatest dangers for the population of the republic - crimes committed in the medical service sector. In the relationship between the patient and the medical worker, the patient consciously and at will, entrusts his health and life to the medical worker, expecting from him the necessary professional knowledge, as well as high moral qualities. Since the relationship between the patient and the doctor is based on trust, criminal iatrogenies are characterized by a high level of latency. Based on this, it is very important to study the identity of the criminal in the criminological aspect. It has always been believed that medical professionals are representatives of the most humane profession, law-abiding and peaceful. However, life shows, especially recently, that this is not quite true. It should be noted that medical workers commit, in most cases, professional crimes, and not only. According to official data posted on Internet sites, they are also involved in corruption scandals, for example, 103 corruption crimes were registered in the Ministry of Health and Social Protection of the Population and its structures. This agency is the "leader" in the number of corruption crimes, so there is something to work on and eradicate.
