The concept of “forensic characteristics of crimes” has long been among the basic concepts of forensic theory and practice. The content of this concept is a systematic set of data about the crime, elements of its composition that are relevant for the identification and exposure of the perpetrator – the location, time, method, traces of the crime, and other circumstances of the subject of evidence, as well as related facts. Particularly serious criminal offenses represent one of the most difficult categories of crimes in terms of their detection and investigation. Often this is due to miscalculations and mistakes in the conduct of primary investigative and search operations, the lack of adaptation of existing private forensic techniques to the realities of modern crime in this field. Most often, the primary measures to identify the perpetrators of the murder of a person are haphazard in nature, conducted without involving the entire arsenal of tactical and criminalistic tools. Sometimes this leads to the loss of the necessary evidence and the lack of efficiency of the enormous amount of work. Detection of certain traces at the scene of the murder, their subsequent fixation, and seizure contribute to the emergence of possible forensic versions, as well as with their help it is possible to distinguish the key signs of the murders committed and consider the evidenced evidence in a specific context. The traces allow us to draw conclusions about the nature, motives, and mechanism of the criminal offense, the identity of the offender, his characteristic physical and psychological characteristics, which are extremely important in the investigation of the killings. Murders committed by convicts in prisons, like any other, cannot be committed without a trace, ie they leave behind in the environment as traces. Which is direct evidence when investigating such a category of crimes. Analyzing the scientific literature and taking into account the practice of law enforcement agencies, the concepts of traces, bases of classification, differentiation of concepts “trace picture”, “typical trace picture”, “typical traces”, division of trace pictures into groups of traces were investigated and revealed. Keywords: trace picture, crime, murder, places of imprisonment, traces.

Purpose. Critical analysis of the criminal law provision on illegal mining of amber, identification of its shortcomings, development of proposals for their elimination. Methodology. The system of philosophical, general scientific and specific scientific methods and approaches, which have provided objective analysis of the subject under consideration, in particular, the method of systemic and structural analysis, specific sociological, statistical, comparative, formal-logical methods. Findings. Shortcomings of the criminal law provision on illegal mining, sale, acquisition, storage, transfer, shipment, transportation and processing of amber, in particular, unjustified expansion of the criminal law prohibition under consideration, unsuccessful design of the main and qualified components of the criminal offense under review, as well as unjustified sanctions. Originality. The authors have been among the first researchers in the domestic criminal law doctrine to provide a comprehensive critical understanding of the provision dedicated to the regulation of criminal liability for illegal amber mining, which has made it possible to develop scientifically based recommendations for improving domestic criminal law. Practical value. Based on the research results, specific proposals addressed to domestic parliamentarians have been developed, which can be taken into account in the process of further lawmaking in terms of updating relevant provisions of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. It is argued that the improved Art. 240-1 should only cover illegal mining of amber. The main structure of the researched criminal offense is proposed to be designed as material. It has been proven, including through references to specific law enforcement materials, that sanctions of Part1 of Art. 240-1 of the Criminal Code of Ukraine should provide for a fine as the only non-alternative main type of punishment, while referenced to alternative punishments in the form of a fine and imprisonment should be included in Parts 2 and 3.

One of the acute problems that have a significant impact on the effectiveness of criminal proceedings is the problem of unlawful influence on the witness and the victim. The disclosure and investigation of the aforementioned criminal offenses is increasingly accompanied by active opposition from interested persons who commit unlawful acts against the witness and the victim, accompanied by particular cruelty and cynicism. Bringing these persons to criminal responsibility is often hampered by the pressure exerted on the witness and the victim in the form of bribery and coercion to give false testimony. Revealing bribery and coercion of a witness and a victim to give false testimony for operational-search science and practice is a significant problem, the solution of which mainly involves the involvement of forces and means of operational units of the internal affairs bodies. It is quite logical that the study of crimes, carried out from the standpoint of the operational-search science, presupposes the formation of the operational-search characteristics of the considered category of crimes. The purpose of this study is a comprehensive scientific development of the main elements and the concept of operational-search characteristics of bribery and coercion of a witness and a victim to give false evidence. To achieve the intended goal, the author needs to solve the following tasks: to analyze the concept of the operational-search characteristics of crimes, to determine its main elements; to summarize and analyze the operational-investigative practice of bribery and coercion of a witness and a victim to give false testimony; analyze generalized data on the most typical operatively significant signs of a crime in the category under consideration. The study is based on the use of general scientific techniques and methods (logical-legal, systems approach, analysis, synthesis, etc.) and specific scientific methods (polling, questionnaires, content analysis of documents, interviewing, comparative analysis, etc.). The theoretical significance of the study lies in the fact that by studying the features of the operationalsearch characteristics of bribery and coercion of a witness and a victim to give false testimony, the author can make a certain contribution to the development of the theory of operational-search activity.

In the article «The issue on determination of typological features of people, committing criminal offenses related to the forgery of excisable goods, as an element of the criminalistic characteristics» prepared by doctoral student Ayupova Z.N.; Professor of the Department of Special Legal Disciplines, Doctor of juridical Science Begaliev E.N; Dean of the Faculty of Social Sciences and Law, candidate of juridical Sciences, Professor UspanovZh.T. The main purpose of this article is to identify the most characteristic features of an intruder's personality and to formulate recommendations aimed at improving the process of investigating criminal offenses related to falsification of excise goods. The article deals with the issue of theoretical interpretation of the concept of "criminalistic characterization of crimes" and "typology of personality" as its element. The analysis of the reference paper is given regarding the study of the typology of persons committing criminal offenses; as well as the problems that arise in determining the subject of the crime and the ways to solve them. The types of persons committing criminal offenses connected with forgery of excisable products as exogenous and endogenous types of intruders are investigated; classified by the object of encroachment, the nature of criminal acts, the degree of public danger. The concepts of socially-adoptive, socially-disadaptive type of personality of persons who commit this category of a criminal offense are disclosed. The structure of the personality of the intruder who deals in the falsification of excisable goods has been compiled and examined through socio-demographic, criminally-legal, socially significant physiological features and moral properties. The analysis of methods for establishing a suspect person is given, the main types of malefactors and their functions are identified in the production of a surrogate excise product. Recommendations for persons conducting investigations into criminal cases related to forgery of excise goods are developed.

The aim: Establishing the forms of criminal liability in case of death of the patient and the presence of such a condition as the desire of the relatives of the deceased to reconcile with the subject of the criminal offense. Materials and methods: In the course of the study, 62 court judgements were used. Comparative, systematic, analytic, and empiric research methods have been used in this research. Results: The position of the victims – relatives of the deceased – has a direct influence on the choice of the form of criminal liability. A medical worker who is the subject of a criminal offense may reconcile with the relatives of the deceased patient and enter into a reconciliation agreement. It is the parties of the agreement who consent to the punishment and the possible exemption from it. At the same time, the court cannot exempt a medical worker from criminal liability in case of a patient’s death. This thesis is based on the fact that the possibility of such exemption is directly related to the reconciliation with the victims who are patients that were provided with medical service. Besides, death is a consequence that is irreversible. Conclusions: The exemption from criminal liability according to the reconciliation of the guilty person with the victim in case of death of a patient is stated to be impossible. At the same time, the possibility of concluding a reconciliation agreement in this case has been established.
