CONDITIONAL RELEASE OF RECIDIVISTS IN CLASS IIA TENGGARONG WOMEN’S CREATE
Abstract
Conditional release aims to return prisoners to society, hoping they will not repeat their crimes. However, a convict who has been released can commit crimes again (recidivist). In this regard, it raises the notion that convicts do not have a deterrent effect on criminal sanctions, so they need legal certainty that regulates this matter. This study aims to: (1) Provide an elaboration and explanation of the Legal Policy on Parole for Recidivist Convicts in Class IIA Tenggarong Women's Correctional Institution that is currently in effect and (2) Know the factors that hinder the implementation of parole-granting activities for these Recidivist Convicts. This research is qualitative research with an empirical normative approach. Data collection was carried out using the Interview Method. The research results show that the legal policy towards Parole for recidivists in Class IIA Tenggarong Women's Prison refers to Law Number 22 of 2022 concerning Corrections. Lack of Human Resources (Staff), the Correctional Information System, which runs slowly, the family as a guarantor, and prisoners' behaviour are the inhibiting factors in granting conditional release to recidivist convicts at Class IIA Tenggarong Women's Penitentiary.
