Summary: Abstract This article condenses a summary of the research entitled Influence of perception of impunity in Bogotá, developed by the Group for Research Criminological of Observatory of Crime of National Police of Colombia, whose main asides and original results are reflected in this document. The objective was to determine the influence of the perception of impunity in the generation of criminality for offenses of theft and murder in Bogota, from the perspective of the three actors involved in the criminal process: victims, perpetrators and judicial officials. He raised an investigation of explanatory character by combining cri-minological approaches and tools of mixed cut (quantitative-qualitative), with the support of the theories of rational choice and games. The result is there is a high perception of impunity associated with the functioning of the judicial system, individualizing three scenarios from the perspective of the three actors, identifying main and secondary variables understood as weaknesses of the system, that intertwine and give rise to the construction of a collective imagination in which is possible crime without being convicted, encouraging the generation of thefts, murders and dynamics of recidivism.
