Five years after having committed two murders, the murderer turned himself in. The first murder occurred as a result of an attempted theft of a car, with the victim being a 33-year-old woman, who resisted the attempted theft of her car; the second was of a 21-year-old man, in the early hours of the following day, apparently, because, as an employee of the park where the attempted car theft occurred, the victim tried to prevent the crime that was being committed. The victims were unknown to the killer. We equate the reasons, including psychopathology, which may be determined andcompared with the theoretical hypotheses, which effectively determined the selfdenunciation of the murderer, taking into account the role of emotions of guilt and shame. vN. 12djulho 2017pp. 1-15tPsiquiatria, Psicologia e JustiçacSanto Tirso aCRIMINOLOGIA aDELINQUÊNCIA JUVENIL aPSICOLOGIA FORENSE aREINCIDÊNCIA aPORTUGAL aAlmeidabFernando  aMOREIRAbDiana  jPP461
