Teoría del suicidio procesal
En un caso real un Fiscal propone a la defensa aceptar ser culpable, cuando el cliente no lo es, pero a cambio de ello rebaja una pena inicial de 6 años de prisión a una multa de 1.200 euros. ¿Aceptaría jugar a la “ruleta rusa“ procesal con la incerteza en el fallo o en cambio la oferta de este “suicidio procesal”?. Otro caso, una persona es solicitante de una adopción internacional que lleva años tramitando para la cual un antecedente penal implica, casi con seguridad, que le denieguen la misma, por no cumplir los requisitos de idoneidad en la adopción y es acusado de un delito menor, por ejemplo alcoholemia, aceptaría una conformidad cuando los jueces ignoran los efectos de...
La prueba diabólica penal
Si preguntamos qué es la Presunción de Inocencia, la mayoría de la gente dirá que “nadie es culpable hasta que se demuestre lo contrario”, una entelequia normativa que el pueblo llano no comprende y que, además, resulta de todo punto ilógica. El Tribunal Constitucional ha señalado que nos hallamos frente a una regla de trato que opera tanto en instrucción como en fase de juicio oral. A su vez, la privación provisional de libertad también se configura como una suerte de batalla de presunciones entre la de Inocencia y las contenidas en la LECrim que se refieren a los fines inherentes a la prisión preventiva, a partir de una presunción de culpabilidad que legitima su determinaci...
Atlas práctico-criminológico de psicometría forense (volumen IV)
Con el presente IV volumen de casos práctico-criminológicos de Psicometría Forense, se cierra la obra completa iniciada con el Vol. I (Asesinatos), Vol. II (Tentativas de Asesinatos) y Vol. III (Parafilias y agresiones sexuales de adultos) y retomando una temática posiblemente más sensible que la anterior, desde el punto de vista social: las parafilias y las agresiones sexuales de menores. De este modo, y siempre partiendo desde la base de la resolución judicial, el autor expone magistralmente 19 casos y establece la distinción de perfiles psicométricos forenses de presuntos agresores sexuales que han sido absueltos de responsabilidad criminal (inocentes y libres de cargos por falta ...

My Grandmother's Braid
Sharp and tender at once, a humourous take on family dysfunction and human weakness seen through a young boy's eyes. Max lives with his grandparents in a residential home for refugees in Germany. When his grandmother—a terrifying, stubborn matriarch and a former Russian primadonna—moved them from the Motherland, it was in search of a better life. But she is not at all pleased with how things are run in Germany. His grandmother has been telling Max that he is an incompetent, clueless weakling since he was a child. While he may be dolt in his grandmother's eyes, Max is bright enough to notice that his stoic and taciturn grandfather has fallen hopelessly in love with their neighbour, Nina. When a child is born to Nina that is the spitting image of Max's grandfather, things come to a hilarious if dramatic head. Everybody will have to learn to defend themselves from Max's all-powerful grandmother.
Home Reading Service
In this poignant novel, a man guilty of a minor offense finds purpose unexpectedly by way of his punishment—reading to others. After an accident—or “the misfortune,” as his cancer-ridden father’s caretaker, Celeste, calls it—Eduardo is sentenced to a year of community service reading to the elderly and disabled. Stripped of his driver’s license and feeling impotent as he nears thirty-five, he leads a dull, lonely life, chatting occasionally with the waitresses of a local restaurant or walking the streets of Cuernavaca. Once a quiet town known for its lush gardens and swimming pools, the “City of Eternal Spring” is now plagued by robberies, kidnappings, and the other myriad ...
Empty Wardrobes
A previously untranslated classic of Portuguese feminist literature originally published in 1978, Carvalho's Empty Wardrobes introduces English-speaking readers to a forgotten and underappreciated woman writer a la recent publishing sensations Lucia Berlin, Natalia Ginzburg, Ingeborg Bachmann, Silvina Ocampo, and Armonia Somers. Empty Wardrobes is a tightly plotted, highly entertaining read, that, thanks to an ingenious detached narrative technique (one that makes the plot all the more fun to revisit and rethink), is both darkly humorous and devastatingly true.
The Last Children of Tokyo
Yoshiro thinks he might never die. A hundred years old and counting, he is one of Japan's many 'old-elderly'; men and women who remember a time before the air and the sea were poisoned, before terrible catastrophe promted Japan to shut itself off from the rest of the world. He may live for decades yet, but he knows his beloved great-grandson - born frail and prone to sickness - might not survive to adulthood. Day after day, it takes all of Yoshiro's sagacity to keep Mumei alive. As hopes for Japan's youngest generation fade, a secretive organisation embarks on an audacious plan to find a cure - might Yoshiro's great-grandson be the key to saving the last children of Tokyo?
