In
the
logic
of
the
German
criminal
law
system
,
preventive
detention
had
no
therapeutic
purpose
.
An
offender
of
unsound
mind
is
sent
,
under
a
hospital
detention
order
,
to
a
forensic
psychiatric
hospital
(
Article
63
of
the
Criminal
Code
)
after
an
expert
concludes
that
there
is
a
danger
of
further
offences
as
a
consequence
of
a
mental
disorder
.
An
offender
is
sent
into
preventive
detention
(
Article
66
of
the
Criminal
Code
)
when
there
is
no
underlying
mental
disorder
,
only
a
vicious
tendency
which
could
lead
to
the
commission
of
future
offences
.
Article
63
was
aimed
at
the
“
mad
”
offender
(
that
is
to
say
an
insane
dangerous
offender
who
has
committed
a
criminal
offence
owing
to
a
mental
illness
)
,
while
Article
66
targeted
the
“
bad
”
offender
(
namely
a
sane
dangerous
offender
who
repeatedly
commits
serious
offences
(
Gewohnheitsverbrecher
)
and
is
considered
as
“
untreatable
”
(
unverbesserlich
)
.[109
]
This
is
still
the
case
today
:
while
Article
67d
§
6
of
the
Criminal
Code
determines
that
the
Article
63
security
measure
based
on
a
hospital
detention
order
should
be
terminated
(
erledigt
)
when
the
respective
requirements
no
longer
prevail
,
Article
66b
of
the
Criminal
Code
and
section
7(4
)
of
the
Juvenile
Courts
Act
still
provide
for
retrospective
preventive
detention
in
that
situation
,
which
would
not
be
possible
if
this
measure
had
a
therapeutic
purpose
.
Furthermore
,
Article
67
of
the
Criminal
Code
lays
down
the
so
-
called
vicarious
system
.
In
case
of
a
mental
hospital
order
or
an
addiction
treatment
order
,
the
measure
as
a
rule
has
to
be
executed
before
the
prison
sentence
.
When
a
measure
is
executed
while
a
prison
sentence
is
still
open
for
execution
,
the
time
spent
in
the
clinic
in
execution
of
the
measure
will
be
counted
as
prison
time
up
to
a
total
of
two
-
thirds
of
the
prison
sentence
.
Preventive
detention
is
excluded
from
the
vicarious
system,[110
]
obviously
because
it
is
not
perceived
as
treatment
,
but
rather
as
punishment
.
The
Feindstrafrecht
is
still
very
much
alive
.
