Abstract(s)
O crime de fraude sexual conta com uma longa história na legislação penal portuguesa. O estudo da evolução histórica deste tipo legal de crime é essencial para percebermos a sua essência e o caminho percorrido até à previsão legal em vigor na atualidade. A restrição do crime de fraude sexual, previsto no art.º 167.º, ao aproveitamento fraudulento de erro sobre a identidade pessoal do agente, conduz à sua quase inexistência no quotidiano judicial. Aliar um alargamento do seu âmbito a uma pena mais adequada poderá dar uma nova vida a este tipo legal de crime, tão esquecido, apesar do seu potencial para a tutela da liberdade sexual.
The offense of sexual fraud has a longstanding presence in Portuguese criminal law. Studying the historical evolution of this article, still enshrined in the Penal Code, is crucial to understanding its essence and the legislative journey leading to the current legal provision. The restriction of the offense of sexual fraud, as set forth in Article 167, to fraudulently exploiting an error concerning the personal identity of the agent has rendered its practical application almost negligible. Broadening its scope, together with a more proportionate penalty, could revitalize this often-overlooked legal provision, despite its latent potential to safeguard sexual freedom.
