  • Title: Mentally disordered offenders in Sweden.
    Author: Lidberg L, Belfrage H.
    Journal: Bull Am Acad Psychiatry Law; 1991; 19(4):389-93. PubMed ID: 1786418.
    Abstract:
    This article reviews the laws in Sweden concerning mentally disordered offenders. It also contains some figures on the relationship between mentally disordered offenders and other offenders sentenced to prison. The rules in Sweden are very different from other countries in that the responsibility concept has been abolished and thus there is no acquittal on a psychiatric basis.
