Introduction. Psychoactive drug addiction causes serious consequences in many countries, not only for the health of the nation, but also for the emergence of various social problems, such as high crime rates, delinquency and unemployment. Material and Methods. A retrospective-prospective study included data of 100 criminal offenders, drug addicts, gathered from forensic psychiatric records in the context of criminal offences committed by those persons. Results. Out of all the drug addicts who committed criminal offences, 98% were males and the average age was 30.44. Most of the offenders were unemployed and had a lower level of education. A total of 56% were previously convicted. The majority of them previously committed one felony. Compared to previous offences, new criminal offenses were against life and body in 70%. Comorbid mental disorders were diagnosed among 84% of examinees at the moment of committing a crime, and 60% had personality disorders. The largest number of subjects with alcohol addiction primarily make offenses against life and body, while those with substance addiction usually commit offenses against human health. Conclusion. In drug addicts who have committed criminal offences, it has been confirmed that gender, age, employment, history of committing criminal acts and comorbid mental disorders are criminogenic factors that are significant for the prediction of general criminality. The continuity in researching predictive factors, as well as crime prevention within the population with mental disorders is and needs to remain a priority.

Zavisnost od psihoaktivnih supstanci u mnogim zemljama ima ozbiljne posledice, ne samo po zdravlje nacije, nego i pojavi razlicitih drustvenih problema, koji se ispoljavaju u vidu kriminaliteta, delinkvencije i nezaposlenosti. Materijal i metode. Retrospektivno-prospektivna studija koja je razmatrala podatke dobijene kroz sudsko-psihijatrijska vestacenja 100 ucinilaca koji su zavisnici od psihoaktivnih supstancija, a u kontekstu krivicnih dela koja su ta lica pocinila. Rezultati. U populaciji zavisnika kao ucinioca krivicnih dela muski pol je zastupljen sa cak 98% i prosecnom staroscu od 30,44 godina. Ucinioci su najcesce nizeg obrazovnog nivoa i nezaposleni. Ranija osudivanost u ispitivanoj populaciji iznosi 56%. Za razliku od ranijih, sadasnja krivicna dela u 70% bila su krivicna dela protiv zivota i tela. Kod 84% ispitanika dijagnostikovano je postojanje komorbidnih mentalnih poremecaja u vreme izvrsenja dela i to u 60% poremecaja licnosti. Najveci broj onih koji su zavisnici od alkohola izvrsavaju prevashodno dela protiv zivota i tela, dok zavisnici od opioida cesce cine dela protiv zdravlja ljudi. Zakljucak. Kod zavisnika koji su ucinili krivicna dela potvrdeno je da pol, starost, zaposlenost, istorija cinjenja krivicnih dela i komorbidna dijagnoza mentalnog poremecaja predstavljaju kriminogene faktore kao znacajne cinioce za predikciju opsteg kriminaliteta. Kontinuitet u istrazivanju faktora koji mogu doprineti adekvatnijoj predikciji, kao i prevenciji kriminaliteta u populaciji osoba sa mentalnim poremecajima, jeste i mora ostati strucni minimum.
