Specific features of alcoholics’ criminal offences
Research on the frequency of alcoholism among the criminal offenders' population indicated high level of relation between alcoholism and criminal behaviour. The role of alcoholism in genesis of criminal offences is especially obvious in the most violent criminal offences ; it is present in up to 70% of murders, and over 90% of sexual offences. The research indicated a higher frequency of occurrence of alcoholism among murderers than in other forms of violent crime. Furthermore, alcoholism affects road traffic accidents, which has been demonstrated by numerous studies conducted in this area. Alcoholism is also frequent among criminal offenders against property, as well as in robberies. The purpose of our research was to investigate the role of alcoholism related to the criminal offences. Objectives of this research were (1) to determine specific features of alcoholics' criminal offences in comparison with criminal offenders from other diagnostic categories on the basis of their demographic, psycho-social, medical and forensic characteristics, and (2) to analyse the relation between alcoholism and violent criminal offences. In conclusion, the results of the research made possible a significantly more differentiating insight into certain aspects of alcoholics, perpetrators of criminal acts and the perpetrators with other diagnostic categories. The contribution is evident in the analysis of the influence of alcoholism, i.e. alcohol-addiction on the manner of perpetrating a criminal act and the contribution of alcoholism on the predictability of violence. Aggressive behaviour in criminal acts was connected significantly with alcohol intoxication of alcoholics at the time of the committed criminal act.
