Abstract:
Absctract: The subject of this article is issues related to the identification of criminological and psychological characteristics, which, in turn, form a criminological portrait of a sex offender. The purpose of the article is to study the identity of the criminal, which is of particular interest to criminologists. The relevance of the work lies in the fact that sexual crimes do not tend to decrease in their number, they are still committed, mainly by people under the age of 40, that is, by such a social category as youth. The concept of a criminal personality is understood as an individual form of expression of social processes and phenomena of an illegal nature. The article reveals the social factors and the influence of unfavorable conditions within which a personality was formed and socialized. The mental state of criminals who commit such attacks is under the influence of prohibited substances and alcohol. They are often prone to alcohol consumption from an early age, which affects the level of aggression and can manifest itself in threats, beatings, insults and subsequent attacks on the victim of the crime.
