Approved the reform of the “only yes is yes” law to cover the crack in the case of new sex offenders who are convicted, the trickle of mitigation of sentences continues for those abusers and rapists who are being able to benefit from the more beneficial to your interests; that is, the one that has been operational between October 7, 2022 and this April 29, when the legislative change promoted by the PSOE came into force against the criteria of the Ministry of Equality and United We Can and ratified by Congress with the endorsement of the PP. According to the latest update of the data from the General Council of the Judiciary, as of May 1, the reductions in criminal punishments now total 1,079, with at least 108 releases.
Of these, 20 are already firm by decision of the Supreme Court once the first appeals have been seen. This figure represents 42.6% of the total reviews. The average percentage between the high court, the National Court, the provincial courts and the superior courts is 30.9%.
