Description:
In the article, the author studies the grounds and principles of
criminalization of premeditated murder combined with rape or sexual violence.
A study of the grounds and principles of criminalization of premeditated murder combined with
rape or sexual violence revealed that it corresponds to the basic grounds and principles of criminalization.
Thus, the increased social danger (danger) of premeditated murder combined with rape or
sexual violence is also characterized by the fact that in this case there is the presence of an additional
mandatory object of unlawful encroachment – sexual freedom and sexual integrity. Which increases the
public danger (danger) of the investigated crime in contrast to the «ordinary murder» under Part 1 of Art.
115 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Therefore, the public danger (danger) of premeditated murder
combined with rape or sexual violence is not even in doubt.
The analysis of the Unified Report on Criminal Offenses of the Prosecutor General’s Office of
Ukraine on premeditated murders combined with rape or unnatural sexual gratification and premeditated
murders combined with rape or sexual violence between January 2013 and October 2021 provided an
opportunity to conclude. First, the investigated criminal offense is not an accidental socially dangerous
act, but is characterized by stable statistics. As evidenced, in particular, by the presence of recorded
criminal offenses under paragraph 10 of Part 2 of Article. 115 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine in each of
the recorded years (2013 – 11 criminal offenses, 2014 – 13 criminal offenses, 2015 – 8 criminal offenses,
2016 – 9 criminal offenses, 2017 – 8 criminal offenses, 2018 – 12 criminal offenses, 2019 – 7 criminal
offenses, 2020 – 8 criminal offenses, 2021 (January-October) – 6 criminal offenses). Therefore, we can
say that premeditated murder combined with rape or sexual violence is typical and sufficient.
A review of the dynamics revealed that the above study of the Prosecutor General’s Office of
Ukraine suggests a pendulum trend of premeditated murder combined with rape or sexual violence, both
to reduce the number of reported criminal offenses and to increase them. It was also found that the negative consequences of criminalization will occur in the
criminalization of any type of socially dangerous act (act or omission), including premeditated murder
combined with rape or sexual violence.
A study of the proportionality of the positive and negative consequences of criminalization has
shown that premeditated murder combined with rape or sexual violence is one of the most socially
dangerous acts punishable by criminal law. Which in one way or another leaves an irreparable mark on
public relations, and needs further prevention and prevention.
