English to Lithuanian: The objectives of sentencing General field: Law/Patents
Source text - English The objectives of sentencing are:
• Retribution. Retribution has public support, but more limited judicial support. The concept that 'the punishment should fit the crime' - the tariff system, is one of retribution.
Retribution is the penal policy of the Old Testament - an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
• Deterrence of the offender - most likely to be effective if the sentence is cruel and unusual (blinding, dismemberment, etc.)
• Deterrence of other potential offenders. This is dependent on publicity, severity and the perceived risk of being caught (i.e. the perceived level of police powers and the effectiveness of their exercise)
• Rehabilitation - this implies that the offender can be rehabilitated - that the solution to crime is to correct the personality defects of the offender - which is unlikely for many criminals, and can take many years at a high cost. It is less applicable if the offender is remorseful.
In considering the rehabilitative effect of a sentencing, it must be considered whether prisons are rehabilitative or degenerative; in addition does a criminal record really help people to return to normal employment (particularly employment more profitable than crime (where the crime is of a pecuniary nature), etc. (which is likely to be necessary for full rehabilitation)?
Rehabilitation is a high-cost policy, and is high-risk in that 'returns' are far from certain, with a fear that good money should not be thrown after bad. As such, purely rehabilitative sentences such as counselling are not part of UK penal policy, and even the apparently rehabilitative community service order, was introduced as a result of rising prison numbers. Even with hospital orders, the primary purpose is protection of the public, and the only order that was introduced purely to rehabilitate offenders rather than to save money or protect the public was the drug treatment order.
Translation - Lithuanian Nuosprendžio skyrimo tikslai yra šie:
• Atpildas. Atpildą palaiko visuomenė, bet teisminė parama yra mažesnė. Sąvoka, kad “bausmė turi atitikti nusikaltimą” - tarifinė sistema, yra viena iš atpildo formų.
Atpildas yra Senojo Testamento bausminė nuostata – akis už akį, dantis už dantį.
• Nusikaltėlio įbauginimas greičiausiai bus veiksmingas, jei bausmė yra žiauri ir neįprasta (pvz., apakinimas, kūno dalies pašalinimas ir t.t.).
• Kitų galimų nusikaltėlių įbauginimas. Tai priklauso nuo viešumos, griežtumo ir baimės būti pagautam (pvz., policijos įgaliojimų ir vykdymo efektyvumo suvokimas)
• Perauklėjimas. Manoma, kad nusikaltėlis gali būti perauklėtas, kad galima išspęsti nusikalstamumo klausimą šalinant nusikaltėlio asmenybės trūkumus, o tai padaryti pavyks tik mažumai nusikaltėlių ir gali užtrukti daugelį metų ir brangiai kainuoti. Besigailintiems nusikaltėliams tai mažiau taikoma.
Svarstant perauklėjimo bausmės poveikį, reikia apsvarstyti, ar kalėjimai atlieka perauklėjimo ar degeneracinę funkciją. Be to, ar teistumo įrašas tikrai padės žmonėms grįžti į normalų darbą (ypač į pelningesnį darbą nei nusikaltimas, jei nusikaltimas yra turtinio pobūdžio, ir t.t., ko greičiausiai reikės pilnai užbaigti perauklėjimą)?
Perauklėjimas yra brangiai kainuojanti politika su didele negarantuoto “pelno” rizika ir nuogąstavimais, kad vertingi pinigai nebūtų švaistomi blogiems dalykams. JK baudžiamajai politikai nebūdingi grynai perauklėjimo pobūdžio nuosprendžiai, tokie kaip psichologo konsultacijos, ir net aiškiai perauklėjimasis įsakymas, reikalaujantis atlikti viešuosius darbus, buvo įvestas dėl didėjančių kalinių skaičiaus. Net gydimosi ligoninėje potvarkiais, visų pirma, siekiama apsaugoti visuomenę. Gydimosi nuo narkotikų potvarkis yra vienintelis potvarkis įvestas tik tam, kad reabilituoti nusikaltėlius, o ne sutaupyti pinigus ar apsaugoti visuomenę.
