Sažetak
This paper discusses possible ways of dealing with dangerous adult offenders after full execution of prison sentence, i.e. measures implemented against this type of offenders worldwide, based on high risk of recommitting a serious criminal offense and causing serious harm to future victims, in line with risk assesment. This is a very controversial topic, subject to numerous debates, and, indeed, relevant in Croatia in light of introduction of the protective supervision security measure after full execution of a prison sentence. The aim of this paper is to highlight the necessity for clear and effective national legislation related to this measure and the need for its implementation and enforcement in accordance with European recommendations and current insights. This paper analyzes European recommendations, experience from selected countries, challenges and dilemmas related to these measures, and specific challenges related to risk assessment and risk management. In addition to critical analysis of current challenges and dilemmas in the Croatian context, specific recommendations for the Croatian criminal justice system and practice are presented in conclusion.
