Abstract

We analysed the files of an Amts- and Landgericht from the years 1982/83. Among about 4000 cases we found 148 condemnations, in which sections 20/21 StGB were discussed. Each offence included 207 variables. 63 cases were left to be evaluated: 10 cases with section 20, 43 cases with section 21, 10 cases with refused section 21. Most of the delinquents lived alone, drank much alcohol very often, were socially unadaptable, previously convicted, unemployed and little qualified. Due to lack of findings of facts and diverging testimonies of psychic findings we found no significant correlation between level of blood alcohol concentration, psychic findings and degree of decreased condemnability.
