Zusammenfassung

Nachdem die elektronische Überwachung 2011 im Strafgesetzbuch verankert wurde, ergeben sich daraus für forensische Sachverständige ganz neue Fragestellungen. Insbesondere die Frage des Effektes auf die Rückfallprävention hat eine zentrale Bedeutung. Der Beitrag referiert einerseits die internationalen Erfahrungen, die Vor- und Nachteile, insbesondere bezüglich der Rückfallprävention, und andererseits die Empfehlungen hinsichtlich eines wegen mehrerer Sexualdelikte nach 10 Jahren Haft zu entlassenen Straftäters.

Abstract

For forensic expert witnesses the introduction of electronic surveillance to the German penal code system raised new questions, such as the effects on relapse prevention. This paper presents international experiences about the effects of electronic tagging, especially on relapse prevention, and lists the advantages and disadvantages of this procedure. Also the recommendations for electronic tagging concerning a sexual offender who was repeatedly convicted and released after 10 years of imprisonment are described.
