Dangerousness of persons released after having served long juvenile prison terms

该研究项目的目的是获得关于在少年监狱长期服刑后获释的人的犯罪情况的调查结果。为此，该项目在全国范围内对至少已服满五年少年徒刑的暴力或性犯罪者的正式定罪刑事记录、刑事法庭档案和囚犯人事记录进行分析。将比较三组：因与未被重新定罪者之间的进一步性犯罪或暴力犯罪而被重新定罪者或仅因其他犯罪而被重新定罪者。因此，可以查明这些群体之间的犯罪学差异，并确定释放后表现出犯罪倾向的风险因素。这将有助于评估是否有必要在少年犯监禁后进行预防性拘留-这是最近在《少年法院法》中引入的一项法律的规定。

The research project aims at gaining findings about the dangerousness of persons released after having served a long term juvenile prison sentence. To this end the project conducts a countrywide analysis of official criminal records of convictions, criminal court files and inmate personnel records on those violent or sexual offenders that have fully served a five years juvenile prison term at the least. Three groups will be compared: reconvicted persons because of further sexual or violent offences with non-reconvicted persons or those reconvicted only because of other offences. Thus the criminological differences between those groups can be identified and risk factors indicating dangerousness after the release can be determined. This will allow to evaluate if there is a need for a preventive detention after juvenile imprisonment - a legal provision recently introduced to the Act on Juvenile Courts.
