OPPOSITE EPISODE 5: 25 YEARS AFTER DUTROUX

Against your feet? That is the sharp view of 2 lawyers on current affairs and society. Walter Van Steenbrugge and Johan Vande Lanotte look with one eye at what is going on in our society and with the other at the law and the law.

25 years ago Marc Dutroux was arrested. What happened since then?

Victims would be given a strong position during the procedure and in the execution of the sentence. Did that happen?

The exchange of information between the police forces was a major problem. Is the information better exchanged now? And that information is properly checked.

Arrest and sentencing: so prison. Belgium is lagging behind. Are prisoners treated correctly? Do people with psychiatric problems receive humane treatment? Do we protect our society against recidivism?

In the podcast “Tegenvoets” Walter Van Steenbrugge and Johan Vande Lanotte give their answers to these questions.
