Overview

The criminal liability assessment is always questionable in subjects, which suffered from a psychotic disorder in the past. Authors try to call attention to the fact, that so called „psychotic experience“ in itself doesn’t decide on the case of recognition and operating capacity changes automatically. It means that the subject’s history of psychosis shouldn’t have an impact on expert’s deciding about forensic consequences mechanically. Likewise, the authors would like to point out a possibility of pathomimesis (pathomimicry) in drug addicted persons with „psychotic experience“.

Key words:
forensic psychiatry, psychotic disorder, differential diagnosis, pathomimesis, „psychotic experience“.
