Resumen

Con la entrada en vigor de la reforma del Ordenamiento penal español de julio de 2015 (LO 1/2015, de 1 de julio), el Código Penal vigente desde 1995ha tenido una serie de modificaciones.

Este artículo valora los cambios más representativos que esta reforma ha introducido en las lesiones y otras figuras delictivas anteriormente consideradas «faltas» y ahora «delitos leves». El objetivo es determinar la repercusión de estos cambios en el tratamiento penal y jurisprudencial de las agresiones contra los profesionales sanitarios.

El análisis se realiza desde una triple perspectiva: la doctrina, la normativa penal y la interpretación de la jurisprudencia al juzgar supuestos de agresiones a estos profesionales.

Se concluye que, al menos en cuanto a las lesiones (tanto las consideradas delito, como las antiguas «faltas» ahora «delitos leves»), el maltrato de obra, las injurias leves y las vejaciones, en la práctica se ha rebajado su punición.

Abstract

With the entry into force of the reform of the Spanish penal system of July 2015 (Organic Law 1/2015), the Criminal Code in force since 1995 has had a number of changes.

This article considers the most representative changes that this reform has introduced in injuries and other criminal offenses formerly considered “faults” and now “minor offences”. The objective is to determine the impact of these changes on the criminal and jurisprudential treatment of attacks against health professionals.

The analysis has been made from a triple perspective: the opinion of academic writers, criminal legislation, and the interpretation made by the jurisprudence when judging cases of aggressions to this professional group.

It is concluded that, at least in where it refers to injuries (both those that were considered as a crime, and the old “faults”, now considered “minor offences”), abuse, minor injuries, and humiliations, their punishment, in practice, has been lowered.
