INTERACTION BETWEEN A CRIMINAL AND A VICTIM OF A CRIME

Journal Title: Правовий часопис Донбасу - Year 2017, Vol 61, Issue 3

Abstract

The article deals with directions of the development of applied victimology as issues of interaction between a criminal and a victim of a criminal encroachment. Considered some recommendations of the victimologists on optimal behavior in extreme situations. The status of potential victim, the way of life, especially behavior, in conjunction with victimological situations and the preconditions of interactions with a potential offender, may promote the birth of a criminal intention and antisocial thoughts in the minds of a person and choosing the method of committing a crime. At the same time, the behavior of a possible victim sometimes may limb the reaction of a criminal or a potential offender, provoking his sympathy, fear, and so on. Moreover, in each particular case, it depends on the conditions, place, time, and other circumstances of the formation and development of the relationships between the offender and his victim, as well as the personal qualities of the potential victim, which has a significant impact on both the nature of his individual actions and on behavior in general. Describing the circumstances which contribute to the birth and development of an offense, it is necessary to pay attention to the fact that in the genesis of the crime an important role is played by the nature of relations between victim, offender and also with other people who were associated with them at the time of the crime. Such relationships can have an impact both positive and negative on the behavior of a potential victim. The consequence of this can be both the commission of a crime and also vice versa. That is why the analysis of such interactions should be used in determining the measures of victimological prevention, while at the same time taking into account that the victim's behavior and everything he was guided is inextricably linked with his personal characteristics: personality, gender, age, profession, social, official and family status, etc. Based on practice, without the knowledge of these victimological signs, it is absolutely impossible to prevent crime, since the offender in many situations acts in conjunction with a specific victim, which, as well as the offender, should be directed to individual positive influence. The impact on the probable offender should be directed not notionally, but taking into account the "double" categories from the criminal situation to the offender and to the victim of the criminal offense, and even up to postvictious influence, resocialization and rehabilitation of the potential victim. There should be diagnostics of the situation and victimological forecasting and programming of the victimological preventive mechanism.
