Diskresi merupakan suatu kebijaksanaan berupa tindakan yang dilakukan oleh penyidik menurut penilaiannya sendiri sebagai jalan keluar terhadap suatu perkara yang dianggap ringan, tidak efektif serta menimbulkan dampak buruk dari Sistem Peradilan Pidana. Diskresi dilakukan oleh penyidik pada dasarnya lebih mengutamakan pencapaian tujuan sasarannya (doelmatigheid) daripada legalitas hukum yang berlaku (rechtsmatigheid). Permasalahan yang diangkat oleh penulis, adalah 1) Apakah peraturan perundang-undangan yang ada sudah cukup komprehensif bagi tindakan diskresi penyidik Kepolisian di dalam Sistem Peradilan Pidana (Criminal Justice System)?, 2) Bagaimana pelaksanaan atau pola-pola kebijaksanaan yang dilakukan penyidik Kepolisian Resor Tulungagung di dalam menggunakan wewenang diskresi?, dan 3) Faktor-faktor apa yang mempengaruhi, mendorong dan menghambat seorang penyidik pada Polres Jtulungagung selaku aparat penegak hukum dalam melakukan diskresi penyidikan pada Sat Reskrim Polres Jepara.? Adapun tujuan dari penulisan tesis ini adalah sebagai berikut: 1) Untuk mengetahui peraturan perundang-undangan yang komprehensif bagi tindakan diskresi Kepolisian dalam Sistem Peradilan Pidana (Criminal Justice System), 2) mengetahui pelaksanaan dari wewenang diskresi yang dimiliki oleh Polisi, 3) mengetahui faktor-faktor apa saja yang mendorong dan menjadi penghambat petugas penyidik untuk melakukan diskresi Kepolisian pada saat penyidikan di Sat Reskrim Polres Tulungagung. Metode penelitian yang digunakan adalah sosiologis yuridis (juridical sociological). Hasil dalam penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pelaksanaan diskresi pada saat penyidikan di Sat Reskrim Polres Tulungagung diilhami dari Batang Tubuh Undang-Undang Dasar Negara Republik Indonesia Tahun 1945, Undang-Undang No. 8 Tahun 1981 Tentang Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHAP), Undang-Undang No. 2 Tahun 2002 Tentang Kepolisian Negara Republik Indonesia, ketentuan hukum tidak tertulis yang masih diakui keberadaannya dan doktrin para ahli hukum serta yurisprudensi yang berguna sebagai petimbangan dalam pelaksanaan tindakan diskresi oleh penyidik. Pelaksanaan diskresi oleh penyidik diberikan secara utuh kepada para penyidik menurut penilaiannya sendiri dengan bertanggungjawab dan tetap mempertimbangkan atas kepentingan umum dan tetap menjunjung tinggi hak asasi manusia (human right). Selain itu dalam pelaksanaan tindakan diskresi oleh penyidik terdapat beberapa faktor yang mempengaruhinya. Faktor pendorong internal terdiri atas subtansi peraturan perundang-undangan, instruksi dari pihak atasan, penyidik sebagai penegak hukum, situasi dalam penyidikan. Faktor pendorong eksternal adalah dukungan dari masyarakat. Disamping itu terdapat faktor penghambat dalam diskresi, diantaranya adalah masih lemahnya penegakan hukum di Indonesia, kendala finansial, oknum aparat, pengetahuan penyidik, partisipasi para pihak. Berdasarkan penelitian tersebut disarankan bagi penyidik selaku aparat Kepolisian yakni tindakan diskresi menurut penilaiannya sendiri secara kontektstual mempunyai makna yang sangat luas akan tetapi tindakan tersebut dilakukan tidak serta merta secara asal-asalan akan tetapi tetap patuh pada batas-batas yang telah ditentukan perundangan-undangan pada Pasal 16 ayat (2) Undang-Undang No. 2 Tahun 2002 Tentang Kepolisian Negara Republik Indonesia. Bagi masyarakat hendaknya dalam pelaksanaan tindakan diskresi oleh penyidik harus dilakukan langkah pengawasan yang baik, supaya tidak ada bentuk penyalahgunaan kekuasaan (abuse of power) dalam pelaksanaan diskresi oleh Penyidik, sehingga diskresi yang dilakukan oleh penyidik tetap suatu bentuk efektifitas dan efisiensi perkara pada Sistem Peradilan Pidana yang bertujuan pada pencapaian keadilan

Minority populations’ trust toward the criminal justice system is understudied in many parts of Europe, including Sweden. This article will contribute to this field by examining the trust in the criminal justice system among the Roma community in Sweden. The aim of the study was to (1) estimate the Roma community’s trust toward the criminal justice system, (2) examine what factors influence the community’s trust toward the criminal justice system, and (3) analyze whether trust toward the authorities influences the Roma community’s willingness to report victimization. The study used a mixed-methodology design in combining survey data ( n = 610) with in-depth interviews ( N = 30). The findings show that the respondents have a low level of trust in the criminal justice system authorities. According to the regression analysis, the strongest predictor of trust was shown to be explained by the respondent’s perception of procedural unfairness. Qualitative findings supported these results while also highlighting cultural effects and historical processes that explain the community’s lack of trust. Finally, trust in the authorities seems to be an important factor that influences crime reporting.

The principles of international law mandate diversion as a model for solving juvenile cases. The diversion model as a resolution model in Indonesia, Philippines, and Thailand is rooted in the traditional culture and local wisdom of the people. Diversion agreement can take form of restitution. This study discusses three issues: (1) diversion in juvenile criminal justice system, (2) restitution in diversion, and (3) comparison of restitution in the Philippines and Thailand. This study employs normative legal approach, which examines the ambiguity of norms of restitution forms. Currently, restitution is interpreted merely as reimbursement for victim. This study collected primary and secondary legal materials collected through literature study. This study employed statutory, legal concept, and comparative law approaches. The focus was on the Philippines and Thailand contexts. The analysis was conducted qualitatively. Diversion is a specialty in the juvenile criminal justice system in which criminal cases committed by children are resolved by deliberation. The result of the diversion agreement can be in the form of restitution as agreed in the deliberation. The Law Number 11 of 2012 on the Juvenile Criminal Justice System recognizes form of restitution. The form is money. It is different from the Philippines and Thailand that formulating a form of restitution in the form of services provided by the perpetrator and/or his family to the victim and/or his family. This form of restitution is based on social realities in which the economic condition of the perpetrator’s family makes it impossible to pay restitution in the form of money. The restitution of work services can be a material for reformulation in the dimension of ius constituendum in Indonesia.

If Magistrate is convinced that the person is of unsound mind and consequently incapable of making his defence, he shall postpone proceedings and referred the accused to the hospital for the treatment. Section- 100 to 105 of Mental Health Care Act, 2017 also laid down procedures to deal with mentally ill people who come in contact with law.

(1) The increase in women’s mass incarceration over the past forty years raises questions about how justice-involved women experience the financial aspects of the criminal justice system. (2) We conducted in-depth interviews with twenty justice-involved women and seven criminal law and reentry professionals, and conducted courtroom observations in southeastern Pennsylvania. (3) The results from this exploratory research reveal that women’s roles as caregivers, their greater health needs, and higher likelihood of being poor creates barriers to paying fines and fees and exacerbates challenges in reentry. (4) These challenges contribute to a cycle of prolonged justice involvement and financial instability.

The explanation of this article is a basic human right that must be fulfilled. At this stage of searching for identity it is influenced by their mentality, so that children sometimes still do not understand whether the action is good or not. Sometimes children are easily affected by situations and conditions around them, especially if the environment is very bad for them. If the child is comfortable, there will be a concern if the child violates the law. Children who are already criminal offenders need a criminal justice system strategy that is to try to minimize intervention in the juvenile criminal justice system.
