Question juridique clé
Whether the statutory conditions for conditional release under Art. 86 StGB were met.
Solution extraite
Yes. The court held that the statutory conditions were satisfied and that the negative prognostic concerns did not justify departing from the rule of conditional release.
Motifs extraits
The prisoner's in-custody behavior was overall positive, the first two disciplinary incidents were insignificant, the alleged prognostic weight of the cash found in prison was not sufficiently established, and the offender was a first-time offender who was very young at the time of the offence. The court considered the authority to have overemphasized speculative risks and undervalued the principle that conditional release is the rule.
