AUDIÊNCIA DE CUSTÓDIA E SUA IMPLEMENTAÇÃO NA PRÁTICA PROCESSUAL PENAL DO ESTADO DO MARANHÃO

Abstract

This paper briefly summarizes the Hearing of Custody and how it has been (or has been given) its insertion in Brazilian Law, bringing to the fore statistical data of the Court of Justice of the State of Maranhão insofar as it is intended to illustrate the advances concerning the application and effectiveness of said criminal procedure institute in that State. In addition to reaffirming the institute's need to build a more humane criminal process, it describes all the legislative and social path that the Hearing of Custody has faced. Finally, through the information collected by the TJMA's Prison Monitoring Unit in a practical field, it shows an interesting reduction in the number of people who do not return to - supposedly - to become involved in conflicts with justice, after a first contact with the Audience of Custody.
