Abstract
The present article has the scope to analyze the treatment given by the Brazilian legal system to the psychopath who commits a crime. This is because, the Penal Code has only one device designed to deal with the one considered unimpeachable or semi-imputable. It occurs that psychopathic personalities are distinct from other criminals, even those considered mentally ill, which reinforces the need to seek a solution to the framing of these individuals in the Brazilian penal system, when there is a practice of delinquency. Therefore, it is essential to study psychopathy in the Brazilian justice system, specifically under the optimum of Criminal Law.
