Rapists, murderers, psychopaths: In preventive detention in a prison, forensic psychologist Gilda Giebel has dealt with all of them. A conversation about the depths of human nature.
If convicted murderers, rapists and other violent offenders are still considered dangerous after their prison sentence has ended, they can be placed in preventive detention in Germany. This means that they remain behind bars and are still prevented from being free in order to protect the population. However, it must be checked at regular intervals whether the offenders still pose a danger and whether they must remain in preventive detention.
