Eighteen percent of the individuals convicted in 2024 were female.
In the year 2024, a total of 16,141 individuals were convicted by courts in Saxony-Anhalt. Among these convictions, men accounted for 35%, or 7,475, and were primarily convicted for crimes under the Criminal Code, excluding traffic offenses.
On the other hand, women made up only 18% (2,929) of the total convictions. Interestingly, women were disproportionately convicted for crimes under the Criminal Code, excluding traffic, accounting for 65% of such convictions (1,910).
Traffic offenses were a significant factor in the convictions, accounting for 23% (683) of all convictions. However, the proportion of traffic offenses among all convictions varied depending on the age group of the offenders. For individuals up to the age group of 30-39 years, traffic offenses accounted for 25% of all convictions. This correlation was somewhat less pronounced for women, with 21% for the age group of 30-39 years.
However, if a person aged 80 or older was convicted of a crime, it was a traffic offense in 85% of cases. This trend of increasing traffic offenses with age was consistent; for each decade of age beyond 30-39 years, the proportion of traffic offenses among all convictions increased.
Approximately 27% (4,397) of those convicted had a traffic-related offense preceding the judgment. It's worth noting that crimes under other federal or state laws accounted for 15% of all convictions (2,359). However, the proportion of crimes under other federal or state laws among all convictions for men was not provided in the text.
It's important to note that if multiple offenses of the same person are tried in separate proceedings, the person is counted separately for each criminal trial. This means that the total number of convictions does not necessarily represent the number of individuals involved in multiple trials.
Intriguingly, among the 336 women convicted for crimes under other federal or state laws, these crimes accounted for 11% of all convicted women. However, there is no available information in the provided search results identifying the name of an elderly woman convicted in 2024 in Saxony-Anhalt for a traffic offense or the specific trial she was part of.
In conclusion, the crime landscape in Saxony-Anhalt in 2024 showed a significant gender imbalance in the types of crimes committed, with men and women having different propensities towards traffic offenses and offenses under the Criminal Code, excluding traffic. The data also suggested an increasing trend of traffic offenses with age, particularly among the elderly population.
