Abstract
Six years after the Law of 30 May 2014 n. 811, which sanctioned in Italy the closure of the Judicial Psychiatric Hospitals (OPGs) and the establishment of the Residences for the Execution of Security Measures (REMS), there is the need to highlight the criticalities and limits of the new system, starting from an illustrative clinical case and analysing the mode of operation of the major European states’ forensic psychology systems. Key words: antisocial personality disorder, forensic psychiatry, social dangerousness, criminal responsibility, residences for the execution of security measures, psychiatric forensic services.
