Visão moderna no inquérito policial e sua importância como Instituto penal garantista no cenário democrático de direito

Abstract

The present work seeks to analyze the police investigation from the point of view of classical and modern doctrine, seeking to clarify its importance or not as a guaranteeing penal institute within a Democratic State of Law. Through bibliographical research, the work sought to demonstrate a more realistic and updated view of criminal investigation, considering that the topic is controversial and has different views of the object under study. Because there is an undervaluation that the investigative piece has been used for a long time, lowering its real value within the country's criminal procedural system, new scholars, through a further study, have different characteristics from those that have been presented over time. Among these characteristics, it discusses the democraticity and indispensability of the police investigation, which recognizes all the guarantees and fundamentals of the human being within the State of Law, becoming much more than merely dispensable diligences of an informative character carried out by the Judiciary Police.
