Abstract
One of the categories of persons requiring social protection from the state, including in criminal law, are disabled people. To date, an aggravating circumstance is provided, as well as a qualifying sign — the commission of a crime against a person who is in a helpless or defenseless state. In our opinion, this group of persons requires concretization by identifying disabled persons and persons with persistent disorder of bodily functions that leads to a violation of vital activity and who did not have time to register disability in accordance with the procedure established by law at the time of committing a crime against them. Such a specification will ensure the subsequent reform of criminal legislation in line with the guarantees of the rights of persons with disabilities, will reduce the level of latency of crime against this category of persons, as a result, will allow for more effective prevention measures.
