Legislator summary

AI generated

The court dismissed the request for suspended sentence and leniency against a defendant convicted of attempted violation. The prosecution argued that no circumstances significantly reduced the illegality or culpability, while the defense sought mitigation based on the attempt status. The court ruled that the attempt did not warrant leniency as it failed to substantially lower the wrongfulness, and suspension was rejected because it would not satisfy the needs of condemnation and crime prevention.

SUMÁRIO

Não se justifica o uso da faculdade de atenuação nem o da suspensão da pena aplicada ao reu que foi condenado pelo crime tentado de violação, quando não se verificarem circunstancias que diminuam de forma acentuada a ilicitude e a culpa e por a suspensão não satisfazer as necessidades de reprovação e de prevenção do crime.
