ABSTRACT. The article examines the identity of the abuser who commits domestic violence. The definition of an abuser who commits domestic crime as a set of socially significant characteristics and relations of a person that characterize him as committing crimes in the sphere of family and household relations is proposed. The structural elements of the criminological characteristics of the offender are analyzed, namely: socio-demographic; criminal-legal; socio-role; moral and psychological. Socio-demographic characteristics of the criminal’s personality are covered by information about gender, age, education, place of birth and residence, citizenship, and other demographic data. Criminal law characteristics are information about the composition of the committed crime, the direction and motivation of criminal behavior, the sole or group nature of criminal activity, the form of complicity (performer, organizer, instigator, accomplice), the intensity of criminal activity, the presence of criminal records, and so on. Socio-role characteristics reveal the functions of an individual determined by his position in the system of existing social relations, belonging to a certain social group, interaction with other people and organizations in various spheres of public life. A person’s moral qualities include their worldview, spirituality, views, beliefs, attitudes, and value orientations.

Criminals are distinguished by a negative or indifferent attitude to the performance of their public duties, compliance with legal norms, the choice of illegal means of satisfying personal needs, selfishness, ignoring public interests, and so on. A portrait of a criminal who commits domestic violence has been formed. An effective system of measures to prevent and counteract domestic violence has been proposed, which should be based on effective educational activities on causing domestic crime.

Keywords: abuser, domestic violence, portrait of the face of a criminal, counteract domestic violence.
