| Summary: |
This article analyses the criminal phenomenology about Drug-Facilitated Sexual Assault (DFSA). Through a descriptive analysis of a sample of court decisions after criminal procedures followed in Spain between 1999 and 2016, we examine different variables available on the crime, the victim and the offender. From the sample analyzed, it was observed that in most cases (76%), the aggressor took advantage of a situation of “chemical vulnerability” (DFSA opportunistic), where the victim herself consumed voluntarily toxic substances. Only in 24% of cases could a true "chemical submission" (DFSA proactive) be proved through the covert administration of substances by the offender or other person, causing the victim a disabling situation. From the analysis of the most common factors, and the review of previous studies, we proposed some measures to improve the prevention and detection of these crimes. |
