Abstract

The present work deals with the decision impact of the Supreme Federal Court - brought by Habeas Corpus 8.214-4 - São Paulo - about disinternation of patients in Custody Hospitals. The research carried out in Alagoas, at the Judicial Psychiatric Center - responsible for admission of agents subjected to security measures - and at Portugal Ramalho School Hospital - the only public psychiatric hospital in the State and where the egressed who have no responsible relatives are sent - revealed the reality of patients and egressed who often, because they no longer have any family ties, because they are invisible and discriminated against by society, are obliged to fulfill a sentence that is often perpetual, with no prospect of finalizing treatment or even any improvement. Although no information was obtained about patients with internment above the limit imposed by the Supreme Federal Court, it was possible to verify the inclusion of patients' family members in multidisciplinary activities and consultations, in order to guarantee the strengthening of the affective bond, as well as to guarantee continuity the treatment of egressed. Undoubtedly, it is necessary to make sure that there are not only Custody and Psychiatric Hospitals for the treatment of those who are subject to the safety measure and the egressed, but also effective programs of treatment, reinsertion and a change in the vision that society has of the unimputable ones who comply security measure. Otherwise, the penalty will continue to be not only beyond what is stipulated by the Supreme Federal Court, but perpetual.
