ML2015133 SEXUAL OFFENSES: CONCEPTS AND TREATMENTS

SUMMARY

Sexual violence is a sensitive subject and it is difficult to care for sex offenders, particularly for untrained personnel. There are legal frameworks in place, such as the requirement or order of care, but the implementation of care differs according to locally available human resources and the historic interest of certain care teams for the subject. It was therefore of interest, following a reminder of a few concepts, to summarise a census of different types of care and their respective indications, and to put into perspective the links between care and justice.
