ATUAÇÃO DO ESTADO NOS ABUSOS SEXUAIS NO SISTEMA CARCERÁRIO BRASILEIRO

Abstract

This work intends to analyze the State’s actions before sexual abuses in Brazil's prisons and their impacts over the convicted, pointing a conflict between positive laws and their real applicability, considering flaws both in public administration and legislation. Bibliographical research were used as methodology; The deductive and dialectical methods were adopted, since all facts should be seen on a social context. To prevent it, significant changes must occur to the State in order to make it closer to Human Rights, as basic measures to protect inmates, improvements on Healthcare and Education, well prepared psychologists and prison guards. Since brazilian prison system is in neglection, an institutional reform using effective public policies and social awareness could potentially be an exit to an adequate modification, besides reducing and balancing the impacts.
