Summary: |
This study was aimed at describing the psychosocial consequences
aff ecting individuals who after having been deprived
from their liberty were found innocent. The theoretical
frame included concepts such as legal psychology,
the presumption of innocence and the in dubio pro-reo,
i. e. �when in doubt, for the accused� principles, judicial
truth, deprivation of liberty, and the eff ects of prisonization
and social stigmatization. The instrument used in the gathering of information was a semi-structured interview
which succeeded in accounting for the psychological and
social consequences of deprivation of liberty for innocent
people wrongfully convicted, according to the juridical
truth. The study concludes with the ratifi cation of such
eff ects and consequences and the usual diffi culty in error
detecting and correcting. |
