The article analyzes the criminological features of violent female penitentiary crime in Russia. Some criminological issues of studying the penitentiary crime of women sentenced to deprivation of liberty are considered. The problem of preventing violence in women’s colonies is the deterioration of the special contingent, the increased number of female convicts prone to aggression, as well as the features of the system of correctional institutions, with their inherent negative criminogenic factors. When studying women’s violent crimes in places of deprivation of liberty, it is necessary to take into account the high level of their latency, the personality traits of convicted women, and the negative conditions of the penitentiary environment. Violence and increased aggression in the territories of women’s colonies is still widespread and well hidden from official registration, a phenomenon that indicates the insufficiency of the securitative system, as well as non-compliance with the law in the conditions of serving a sentence of imprisonment, were, due to objective factors, constant interpersonal conflicts among convicted women. In modern realities, the search for new measures to effectively counter the penitentiary crime of women sentenced to deprivation of liberty is a necessary condition for complying with the main tasks of the penitentiary policy of the Russian Federation - combating violations of the regime and achieving the correction of those sentenced to deprivation of liberty in the process of serving their sentences.
