Summary: | In Brazil strategies committed to preventing and combating feminicide have been implemented. Many of them are created or have the participation of public security institutions. At the same time, it has been paid little attention to understanding the behaviour of these professionals in their own families. Research findings from several countries have shown how these agents sometimes use their power and/or police knowledge to coerce their family members. Based on newspaper articles this paper analyses 28 cases of women who were fatal victims of their public security partners during the year 2021 in Brazil. Analysis pointed out that: (a) in half of the cases after the femicide, the officer committed suicide; (b) the existence of a current or previous affective bond between the aggressor and the victim; (c) the use of firearms in the majority of the deaths; and (d) part of the cases mentioned previous inmate partner violence. |

Muitas delas foram criadas ou contam com a participação das instituições de segurança pública. Ao mesmo tempo, pouca atenção tem sido dispensada para entender o comportamento desses profissionais em suas próprias famílias. Pesquisas realizadas em diversos países têm apontado como esses agentes por vezes utilizam de seu poder e ou do conhecimento policial para coagir seus familiares. A partir de um levantamento jornalístico, o artigo analisa 28 casos de mulheres que foram vítimas fatais de seus parceiros profissionais de segurança pública durante o ano de 2021 no Brasil. A análise demonstra que: (a) em metade dos casos analisados após o homicídio o agente cometeu suicídio, (b) a existência de vínculo afetivo anterior ou atual entre o agressor e a vítima, (c) a utilização de armas de fogo na maior parte das mortes, e (d) parte considerável dos casos traziam menções à episódios ou comportamentos violentos prévios.Rede de Estudos Empíricos em Direito2023-08-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/74810.19092/reed.v10.748Brazilian Journal of Empirical Legal Studies; Vol. 10 (2023): Dossiê Administração Institucional de Crimes no Âmbito da Segurança Pública e da Justiça Criminal em Perspectiva Empírica; 1-28Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito; v. 10 (2023): Dossiê Administração Institucional de Crimes no Âmbito da Segurança Pública e da Justiça Criminal em Perspectiva Empírica; 1-282319-081710.19092/reed.v10reponame:Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitoinstname:Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)instacron:RPEDporhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/article/view/748/463Copyright (c) 2023 Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direitohttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCruz, Fernanda2023-09-01T00:01:21Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/748Revistahttps://reedrevista.org/reedONGhttps://reedrevista.org/reed/oaimvchein@gmail.com||reed.revista@gmail.com2319-08172319-0817opendoar:2023-09-01T00:01:21Revista de Estudos Empíricos em Direito - Rede de Pesquisa Empírica em Direito (REED)false |
