Criminal lynching among convicts sentenced to imprisonment: characteristics and preventive measures
The article gives a description of criminal lynching among convicted. These lynching
will always be relevant for scientific research due to its multidimensionality, prevalence
among convicts and negative consequences for prison practice. In particular they affect
the provision of personal security in places of deprivation of liberty, the maintenance of
a positive moral and psychological climate among the special contingent, the effective
implementation of the correctional process and the achievement of the goals of the penal
legislation. That is why it is necessary to conduct research work aimed at studying the
socio-legal nature of criminal lynching among convicted persons. The reasons for lynching
lie in the customs and traditions of the criminal subculture as well as in the predisposition
to resolve conflict situations on their own in human nature. Prevention of criminal mob
attacks in places of imprisonment is a very difficult task due to the latency inherent in
the criminal environment. However correctional staff should take all possible measures to
prevent their spread in places of social isolation. Representatives of penal science should
provide scientific and methodological assistance in this direction. That is why the article
sets out a set of measures to prevent this negative phenomenon.
