Abstract
El proceso de individualización de la pena por el delito cometido culmina con una actuación
judicial relativamente discrecional. En lo que ha de ser una discrecionalidad reglada (legalmente explícita
o derivada implícitamente de lo que significa el Derecho penal actual, preventivo y orientado a las consecuencias),
y no ejercicio de pura arbitrariedad, los tribunales han de atender la gravedad del hecho y las
circunstancias de su autor. En este artículo se analizará en el proceso individualizador, los criterios concretos
por considerar y la manera en que ha de motivarse, siempre que se decida judicialmente dicho
proceso.
The process of individualization of penalties imposed for the offense ends with a relatively discretionary prosecution. In what must be a regulated discretion (legally explicit or implicitly derived from the current preventive and consequence-oriented criminal law), and not an experience of mere arbitrariness , courts must address the seriousness of the deed and the circumstances of the perpetrator. This paper analyzes the aim to take into account in the process of individualization of the penalties, the specific criteria and how to motivate, always, every decision the courts makes.
