A importância da prova indiciária no processo penal: uma análise do valor do indício nos chamados crimes econômicos

Abstract

This project seeks to demonstrate the importance of indicial proof analysis to base judicial decision, either acquittal or condemnatory, when approaching complexes and difficult to prove crimes. The indicial proof on criminal proceedings will be referred as full action and not less relevant than the direct evidence. It’s a controversial and stimulating theme, in view of being misunderstood in Brazil, due to variations to the precise meaning of indicial and its value. Therefore analyzes and incorporates modern and traditional rules regarding classifying evidences as indirect or full, highlighting and discussing their characteristics and differences. Though a technical-bibliographical approach, it aims to demonstrate that indirect evidences by indications are not only based in a condemnatory decree as indispensable, in order not to occur the inefficiency of the judiciary when referring to economic crimes that leave no traces.
