The 77-year-old abuser tried to avoid prison for his age, KKO knocked out
Trials|For the first time, the KKO outlined when high age might alleviate imprisonment.
The abstract is made by artificial intelligence and checked by man.
The Supreme Court (KKO) outlined a 77-year-old abuser in the case of a high age that he was not sufficient to mitigate imprisonment.
The man was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment for several children’s abuse in fourteen years.
The KKO stated that high age may alleviate judgment if, for example, general condition has significantly impaired.
Supreme In its preliminary ruling on Wednesday, the court (KKO) outlines the effect of high age on alleviating the absolute imprisonment.
In this case, age did not give reason to reasonable punishment. Similarly, the long period of time after committing crimes was not a reason to mitigate the punishment.
This is the first time that the KKO pondered the effect of age on reasoning for punishment.
In the case, a 77-year-old man was sentenced to three years’ imprisonment for several children’s abuse in the Court of Appeal, which KKO did not now change.
The man committed crimes over a fourteen -year period and had several victims. Among other things, he satisfied himself as the children watched.
The abuser received a license to the Supreme Court, in which he called for the relief and conversion of the punishment, for example due to his age and health. He presented a report of his state of health stating that he had been diagnosed with anxiety and depression related to trial and punishment.
He also demanded alleviation because a considerable period of time had passed. The first act was 2006.
Kko Did not ease. It kept the worn time exceptionally long, which would support moderation. The court also takes into account the fact that the charge was prosecuted just before the prosecution became limited.
On the other hand, there had been no change in the man’s behavior that could mitigate the punishment. On the contrary, he had committed several similar crimes, including 2016-2020. Therefore, the KKO did not alleviate the punishment.
The man’s age KKO kept high, but pointed out that he did not have, for example, a disease that requires hospitalization or other serious health problems.
High age may reasonable punishment if, for example, general condition decreases, which makes the punishment clearly heavier.
In this case, the KKO stated that a well -established practice does not lead to an unreasonable or exceptionally harmful outcome.
