Establishing the pattern of crime is fundamental for the successful investigation ofinternational crimes (genocide, war crimes, and crimes against humanity). A patternof crime is the aggregate of multiple incidents that share common features related tothe victims, the perpetrators, and the modus operandi. Pattern evidence and analysishave been used successfully, mainly in the investigation of large-scale killings, destruction,and displacement; the use for sexual violence charges has been remarkablymore limited. There is a need to overcome this gap by setting proper methods of datacollection and analysis. At the level of evidence collection, under-reporting should beaddressed through victimization surveys or secondary analysis of data available fromdifferent sources. At the level of analysis, the available evidence needs to be subject toimpartial examination beyond the pre-conceptions of the conflict parties and advocacygroups, in compliance with scientific standards for quantitative, qualitative, andGIS (Geographic Information Systems)methods. Reviewing the different investigativeexperiences and jurisprudence will help to set the right methodology and contribute mostefficiently to putting an end to the impunity regarding sexual crimes.

Este artigo analisa as concepções comuns que obstaculizam a judicializaçãode casos, e explica como documentar os patrões do crime, os enlaces com as organizaçõesarmadas, e a responsabilidade dos responsáveis na liderança do grupo. Todoisto a partir da análise das práticas e achados do cpi e da icty, os artigos acadêmicossobre o tema, e também na experiência própria do autor. Além disso, uma análiseoriginal de como provar responsabilidade para crimes de violência sexual, baseadonos casos internacionais, no qual sairão convicções, mas também na extensão daspráticas de pesquisa e provação de outros crimes internacionais.El éxito de las investigaciones de crímenes internacionales (genocidio, crímenes de guerra y crímenes de lesa humanidad) depende en gran parte de poder establecer el patrón delictivo. El patrón delictivo es el conjunto de características que tienen en común varios incidentes con relación a las víctimas, los perpetradores y el modus operandi. Las pruebas y los análisis con base en patrones han sido utilizados con éxito principalmente en las investigaciones de masacres, destrucciones y desplazamiento, pero su utilización en imputaciones de violencia sexual ha sido notoriamente más limitada. Es necesario cubrir este vacío por medio del establecimiento de métodos apropiados de recolección y análisis de datos. A nivel de la recolección de pruebas, la carencia de denuncias presentadas por las víctimas se debe suplir por medio de encuestas a las víctimas o por medio del análisisde la información secundaria disponible en diferentes fuentes. A nivel de análisis, la evidencia disponible debe ser evaluada de manera imparcial, independientemente de las ideas preconcebidas de las partes en conflicto y de los grupos de defensa de derechos, cumpliendo con los estándares y métodos científicos para el análisis cuantitativo, cualitativo y de sistemas de información geográfica (GIS). Un análisis de variasexperiencias investigativas y de la jurisprudencia permitirá establecer la metodología más apropiada y será la manera más eficiente de ayudar a poner fin a la impunidad relacionada con los crímenes sexuales.2011text (article)application/pdfhttps://dialnet.unirioja.es/servlet/oaiart?codigo=4809195(Revista) ISSN 0124-0579Revista Estudios Socio-Jurídicos, ISSN 0124-0579, Vol. 13, Nº. 2, 2011, pags. 11-42engLICENCIA DE USO: Los documentos a texto completo incluidos en Dialnet son de acceso libre y propiedad de sus autores y/o editores.
