| Sumario: | The Brazilian Constitution in its art. 5º presents an extensive list of norms designed to ensure individual and collective rights, and especially, for the purposes of this study, equality of all before the law. The problem faced by this research is: does the Criminal System really treat everyone with equality, in accordance with the Fundamental Law provided for in the Constitution? The authors conclude that the Criminal System, delimiting its clientele and stigmatizing, from all the population, which individuals will be persecuted and captured to be part of the criminal population, openly violates the Fundamental Law of equal treatment before the law. |
