SUICIDE BY COP: LA BÚSQUEDA DEL SUICIDIO A TRAVÉS DE UNA RESPUESTA POLICIAL Y SU RELEVANCIA PARA LA SEGURIDAD PÚBLICA
Resumen
Este artículo investiga el fenómeno del Suicide by Cop (SbC), traducido como "suicidio por respuesta policial", analizando sus características, implicaciones y relevancia para la Policía Militar de Paraná (PMPR) en la gestión de crisis y el uso de la fuerza letal. A partir de una revisión exhaustiva de la literatura nacional e internacional, se exploran los perfiles psicológicos y demográficos de los individuos involucrados, los patrones característicos de los incidentes y los desafíos operativos que enfrentan las fuerzas de seguridad. Además, se discuten las limitaciones metodológicas y la falta de estandarización en la clasificación de los casos de SbC, factores que afectan la comprensión del fenómeno y la formulación de directrices eficaces para su mitigación. La investigación destaca la necesidad de capacitación específica para los agentes de seguridad, enfatizando la importancia de las estrategias de desescalada, la integración con equipos multidisciplinarios y el desarrollo de protocolos de intervención que prioricen la preservación de la vida.
