Summary
Criminal offences after the fact in the Penal Code - aiding the perpetrator of an offence after the fact, preventing the prosecution or the execution of the sentence imposed, receiving stolen property obtained by other criminal acts, money laundering - inflict a punishment for those acts committed subsequent to a criminal offence, do however differ in their scope of application and in whom or what they protect. The inconsistencies resulting from this were aggravated by the introduction of money laundering as an offence in the Penal Code. This work is based on the theory that there is a connection between the form of criminal offences after the fact and the basic conceptions of crime and punishment, and that as a result certain conclusions can be drawn in regard to a new conception of criminal offences after the fact.
