Starting from the real premise of the existence of certain controversies regarding the prosecutor’s seat, role, functions and competencies in the internal legal system, the author brings to debate the special situation of the prosecutor, protected, under exceptional provisions, by the constraints of the hierarchical subordination specific to the organization of the Public Ministry. During the performance of his procedural functions, regulated under art. 316 of the Code of criminal procedure, the prosecutor can claim a status similar to the judge’s. The rules acknowledging his freedom of action and procedural expression concurrently exonerates him from any form of liability that might be engaged as effect of the procedural practice totally independent in relation to the hierarchical management or agents of other powers.

In case of the minors aged between 14 and 18 years old, who are liable from the criminal point of view, the presumption according to which their judgment has not reached its maturation, but is in full process of development and stabilization is instituted. In view of these circumstances, minors under this category of age do not have the psycho-physical ability to fully become aware of the gravity of the perpetrated crimes and, especially, their injurious consequences on the social values protected by means of criminal regulations. Given this context, the author claims that the new Criminal Code excludes the possibility of enforcing punishments in case of under aged criminals and establishes a specific system of criminal penalties, entitled educational measures, classified into two categories: educational measures without deprivation of liberty and educational measures with deprivation of liberty.
