Employee activitiescorrectional institutions andpre-trial detention centers for the consideration of reports of penitentiary crimes: problems, trends, prospects

Abstract

The article deals with the actual problems of detection, disclosure and investigation of crimes committed by convicted persons, accused persons, suspects during their stay in correctional institutions and pre-trial detention centers. The authors believe that their decision cannot be effective at the level of any one individual agency. Based on the data of official criminal statistics and their own theoretical generalizations, they show how the continuous annual increase in the total number of penitentiary crimes, the high probability of becoming another victim of penitentiary crime for law-abiding convicts, naturally creates the need to improve the practice of responding to them, through improving the current state of legal regulation, as well as the introduction of science and technology in the daily activities of employees of bodies and institutions that execute sentences.
