Estado de ira e intenso dolor : un supuesto de imputabilidad disminuida

Abstract

This research work, seeks to establish that despite the fact that the guilt element is a limit to the ius punendi in the Colombian legal system, there are altered states of consciousness, which decrease the capacity for guilt or the accountability of the individual and they are in a regulatory gap, this situation is not completely foreign to our legal framework, since there is a state of anger and intense pain, Therefore, if we analyze the dogmatic origin of this mitigating factor, we will find that it has its genesis in the recognition of the leveling of emotions or the staggering of them, determining that with the appropriate accompaniment by an expert, it can be determined that although the subject was not accountable, he was not fully attributable either.
