Abstract
PELLEJERO, Nancy Carina Vernengo. DIFFICULTS ABOUT THE REVIEWABLE LIFE IMPRISONMENT IN THE SPANISH CRIMINAL LEGISLATION (SOME COMMENTS FROM THE FOREIGN LAW). Revista Internacional CONSINTER de Direito [online]. 2019, n.9, pp.485-502. Epub Dec 18, 2019. ISSN 2183-6396. https://doi.org/10.19135/revista.consinter.00009.26.
The reform of the Criminal Law by the Bill No.1/2015, of March 30, has meant, among other things, the incorporation of the reviewable life imprisonment, for some serious crimes against life or physical integrity (such as, among others, the aggravated subtype of murder, or regicide). This measure has brought back its possible unconstitutionality and the contradiction about the application of the life imprisonment in a judicial system that, apparently, pursues the prisoners reinsertion in society. However, some recent crimes (some of them committed by repeat offenders), keep open the discussion on its validity, despite the discordant voices that supports its repeal.
