CRIMINAL CLASSIFICATION OF CRIMINAL OFFENSES RELATED TO INTERFERENCE IN THE ACTIVITIES REPRESENTATIVES STATE AUTHORITIES

Abstract

The article reflects the authors' criminological classification of criminal offenses related to interference in the activities of representatives of state authorities. It is argued that it should be carried out with simultaneous consideration of both criminal-legal and forensic features because this approach ensures the development of a classification, which in the future can become the basis for determining the prospects for the development of individual forensic methods of investigation. It is substantiated that when selecting the classification criteria, it is important to consider the patterns of criminal illegal activity, because it is then that the developed classification will have a significant practical value, and will also ensure the division of criminal offenses into separate differentiated groups. It was determined that the forensic classification of criminal offenses related to interference in the activities of representatives of state authorities is possible based on some classification criteria. In our opinion, the following should be attributed to those characterized by significant forensic significance: 1) the method of intervention; 2) moments of formation of criminal intent and its implementation; 3) the type of violence used; 4) the form of external expression of actions committed by a person; 5) status of the victim, type of activity, position, departmental (establishment) affiliation; 6) the quantitative composition of the subjects of the criminal offense; 7) peculiarities of the motivational factors that guided the suspect (suspects). It is indicated that such characteristics of the subject of the criminal offense as gender, education, age, presence of previous criminal experience, gender and occupation, and nature of relations with the victim are also given a certain forensic significance in the context of the forensic classification of criminal offenses related to interference, staying in a special physiological state (for example, in a state of alcohol or drug intoxication), etc.
