Professor of Criminal Law finds detention unfair

Criminal law professor Martino Mona calls for detention to be abolished: it is arbitrary and unfair to convicts who have served their actual sentences. “You have to fundamentally rethink the entire penal system.” (archive image)

The regime of measures in Switzerland has “completely out of control”, the number of preventive measures locked up indefinitely. “But the detention is a response to the fact that we are not punishing hard enough,” said the professor of criminal law and philosophy of law at the University of Bern in an interview with the Tamedia newspapers.

Prison leave, for example, should no longer exist. “The deserved punishment will be served to the end,” the professor of criminal law and philosophy of law at the University of Bern said in an interview with Tamedia newspapers. If it’s up to him, there will only be suspended sentences in the small area.

The majority benefits from detention — but those “actually in detention face enormous disadvantages” because they would be locked up without an end date, Mona said. This injustice is only accepted because everyone thinks it will never happen to them. But the reports used to assess potential guardianship are inaccurate, arbitrary, and poorly crafted. “Nothing but disguised clairvoyance,” Mona calls her.

He has no qualms about depriving an offender of his liberty who has been proven to have committed a crime. Security can be created by an appropriate prison sentence. “But anything beyond that is based on pure speculation about alleged future crimes,” Mona says. “Security is less important than freedom.” Offenses by freedmen should be accepted. “It’s part of the crime that will always endure.”
