Forum echo – criminal age: “Krone” readers demand consequences

Date:

The era of criminal liability is currently a polarizing topic – both in politics and among the readers of “Krone”. In Austria, young people aged 14 and over are currently criminally liable, but voices within the government are calling for this age to be lowered. Our users also have many, sometimes very different, opinions about this discussion.

How do you see the current discussion about the age of criminal responsibility? Are you happy with the proposal to reduce this or do you share the view that socio-educational approaches should be used when it comes to youth crime? We look forward to hearing your thoughts in the comments!
