Violent sexual acts against minors
Mission: to study this social and legal phenomenon and assess the prevention and prevention measures. Methodology: logical, system, axiological, statistical, synergetic, comparative legal methods, method of concrete sociological research. Conclusions. There is an increase in the level of crime associated with violent sexual acts against minors, which is associated with a high level of latency of this socio-legal phenomenon. The main factor inﬂuencing the formation of criminal behavior in a person who committed violent acts of a sexual nature with respect to minors is the presence of a psychosexual disorder associated with a violation of sexual desire. For this category of crime, a relatively small role is played by victimological factors, due to a number of features of this type of crime. In the modern system of preventing crimes against sexual freedom and the inviolability of minors, there is no sustainable means of preventing them, related to the tightening or changing of punishment or post-penitentiary control. The main measure of prevention of this type of crime is the strengthening of social control bodies, which will favorably aﬀect the level of latency of this type of crime. In modern reality, social control bodies, including schools, hospitals and other institutions that are obliged to monitor juveniles, avoid this activity, which negatively aﬀects the juvenile delinquency and their attitude. Scientiﬁc and practical signiﬁcance. In the work, a study was carried out related to an objective assessment of the eﬀectiveness of preventive and preventive measures for the type of crime in question, and suggested own methods for solving the problem posed.
