摘要:This article analyses the process of legal liability of adolescents who committed sexual offenses. It is a documentary research, with 223 lawsuits of adolescents denounced for committing sexual offense, between 2013 and 2015, in Federal District. Informations were organized in a database and statistical frequency analyzes were performed using the IBM SPSS Statistics software, version 24. It was found that 40.3% of the adolescents involved had lawsuits filed or extinguished, followed by 21.3% who received the remission. Regarding accountability, 35.3% of the adolescents received socio-educational measures, with priority being given to noncustodial sanctions. Of these, 67.5% were able to comply with the socio-educational measure.
