Psychic trauma reflects the unique, devastating, painful experience that the victim is experiencing and cannot escape. Sometimes the consequences of childhood sexual abuse turn into mental trauma and can fundamentally change the victim's perception of social values, forming a devaluing perception of oneself. Out of the desire to get rid of the unbearable guilt complex, the victim who has become a young adult renounces his moral function and objectifies his will within the criminogenic process to satisfy the requirements of uncontrollable destructive impulses (destruction drive). An unusual process of transference takes place, the young adult, a victim of sexual abuse in childhood, discovers in his emotional memory a compulsive admiration for the will to power of the one who abused him. The aggressor is perceived by the traumatized in a disto...

Crime is perceived as a particularly serious act, which must be sanctioned by society. From a moral and social point of view, the danger of criminal acts is general, but crimes are punished differently by the states of the world; that is why there are certain proposals and conditions regarding the internationalization of the punishment, when the crime was committed. The set of rules, prescriptions and prohibitions that make up the punishment uniform the detention behavior. The absence of inhibition, loss of moral consciousness, detachment from positive social events explain the antisocial behavior of the criminal. In detention, social reform can be achieved by rediscovering the moral function of the convict. KEYWORDS: murderer, moral conscience, inhibition, internationalization of the p...

The victims of domestic violence are during this period affected by social restrictions, lack of communication with the authorities, the presence of the perpetrator in the family environment. Alcohol and drug use, temporary loss of employment, traffic restrictions, lack of livelihood, financial insecurity and poor hygiene conditions negatively affect the perpetrator's mental state. Scientific studies on suicide attempts of adolescents and adults, patients with COVID-19, as well as aggressive behavior after treatment and after discharge from medical centers are analyzed. A meta-analysis of the causal relationship between the virus and other environmental factors that may contribute to the formation of neurological disorders is also presented. KEYWORDS: aggressive behavior, neur...

From a philosophical point of view, it must be explained how the unconditionality of the crime becomes an essential condition for the commission of the criminal act. This article also analyzes the effect of serotonin (5-HT) in the neural control of the manifestation of aggressive behavior. Impulsive aggression, depression, personality disorders, drug abuse, are associated with a dysfunction in the serotonin system (5-HT). The neurobiology of violence examines the serotonergic system and proposes in some cases therapeutic action. The role of the amygdala i...

The criminological analysis is also justified by the studies published by Charles Choi (2002) in New Scientist where the case of a 40-year-old man whose brain tumor suffered from sudden pedophilia and an uncontrollable obsession for sex, as well as the studies published by Giuseppe Sartori (2016) and collaborators explaining the functional disorder of the orbitofrontal cortex, a brain region responsible for behavioral inhibitions, emotional comprehension, and moral responsibility. From the legal point of view, the criminal responsibility is analyzed in the situation where the discernment is affected by the physiological determinism. In this sense, brain imaging plays an important role. KEYWORDS: aggressive sexual behavior, brain imaging, orbitofrontal cortex dysfuncti...

People with antisocial personality disorder are characterized as aggressive, irresponsible, cynical, impulsive, empathy-free, have a criminal behavior and know the experience of professional failure. From a psychoanalytic point of view, the terrorist has a devalued Superego, the ego is influenced by the drive of destruction, and can no longer censor the morbid demands of Id. Anticipating the sanction and assessing the consequences of the criminal act lead to the inhibition of the aggressive personality, the passage to the act being stopped by the moral barrier, by the censorship of the overwhelm in the case of a social being. The concept of radicalization is presented in comparison with the failure of social integration programs. Radicalization is preceded by suicidal behavior.

The filicide perpetrator is a person affected by major depressive disorder, the passage to the act does not manifest itself as an ordinary delinquent act, but has a specific etiology that sometimes involves suicidal behavior and conjugal crime. In 2014, Turhan Canli publishes in the Biology of Mood & Anxiety Disorders a study on the re-conceptualization of the major depressive disorder as an infectious disease in which he suggests that major depression may result from a parasitic, bacterial or viral infection. Major depression and antisocial personality disorder can trigger the transformation of the criminal ego by overcoming the barrier of moral and religious inhibitions, emphasizing the transition to the crime. From a psychoanalytic and victimological point of view, the destructive attachment of the victims of marital crime that return to the aggressor after being physically abused is also analyzed.

As long as the suicide still exists and is present in the being, crime cannot be achieved, it cannot become reality, as individual is not prepared to act to commit the criminal act. Hate, evil, aggression build up in consciousness when the suzerain begins to die gradually. Deicide is not only the killing of God by its own being, but also the death of superstition, the killing of the images of ideal parents, the death of any symbol representing ethics, the assassination of the moral court, and all the positive feelings of the individual engaged in society, the realization of existential projects. The construction of the criminal personality is born only after the neurotic ego has killed its own moral court. This is easy when the overhead is not strong, that is, it does not manifest itself as a true barrier, supreme inhibition, in the face of existential pulses.
