Abstract
Analysis of the prison population with mental disorders and court decisions. It analyzes the stereotypes that guide the scope of mental health, especially with regard to individuals in the Brazilian prison system. It aims to verify the social disbelief about the effectiveness of psychic health treatments as a driver for the occurrence of sentences that transgress the non-imputability of people with mental disorders; investigate the decision of judicial authorities in requesting the imprisonment of subjects with mental disorders instead of plausible psychiatric hospitalization; investigate the performance of interventions within prisons to adapt the environment to those sentenced with mental disorders; address the incoherent incarceration of mentally impaired individuals associated with the occurrence of overcrowding in prisons; report the damage to social reinsertion of the impertinent court decision of people with mental disorders. The methodology consisted of bibliographical research and published articles, books, legislation and other documents related to the theme were used. Thus, based on these parameters, the violation of fundamental rights of individuals with mental disorders was observed as a result of the lack of measures to adapt the prison environment to their specific needs, contributing to the destabilization of the prison system and hindering resocialization. It concludes with the defense of a perceptible urgency concerning social actions with a focus on the importance of treatments that are attentive to individual subjectivities in order to attenuate the trivialization of this situation.
