Interpretation of Criminal Tattoo Symbols in Prison Facilities
Original language description
The article discusses the importance of tattoo in the criminal environment and prison subculture. Special attention is paid to the function of tattoos, especially in the area of identification and communication. Frequently used symbols have a considerable explanatory value. They reflect the criminal past of the wearer, expressing religious or ideological beliefs, indicate a process of radicalisation, membership in a criminal group or gang. With the help of analysis of the selected tattoo symbols is possible to collect valuable information about the personality profile of a particular individual. Information about inmate’s criminal past, special skills, personal characteristics and preferences can be principal in the penitentiary procedures and measures.
