Abstract

ABSTRACT

Purpose of the study: This research scrutinizes the judge's logical fallacy in considering the life history and emotional and psychological condition of the Defendant in Supreme Court Decision Number 813 K/Pid/2023 against the Defendant who was found guilty in a case of premeditated murder, which potentially results in a lighter sentence for the Defendant.

Methodology: The research methodology used doctrinal methods. Data were collected, selected, grouped, and arranged in narrative form and analyzed qualitatively. The approach used in this research was a normative approach with legal theory analysis to obtain a complete picture of the judge's considerations in implementing decisions. The analysis utilized was content analysis, i.e., interpreting the meanings intended by and in the judge's considerations in Supreme Court Decision Number 813 K/Pid/2023.

Results: The research findings exhibited the life history and social circumstances of the Defendant, who, at that time, served as a member of the Indonesian National Police, with his last position as Kadiv Propam (Head of the Professional and Security Division) who had contributed to the state by contributing to maintaining order and security and upholding the law in the country. The Defendant having served as a member of the National Police for approximately 30 years is a consideration that reduces the sentence. This becomes a logical fallacy for judges, resulting in the impact of public distrust in law enforcement.

Applications of this study: The purpose of this research is to elucidate the dynamics of judges' logic in making logical legal considerations in accordance with applicable rules.

Keywords: Judge's Consideration, Death Penalty, Court Decision.
