Abstract

The general objective of the research was to analyze legally the alternative penalties to imprisonment in the illicit trafficking of substances. The present research used the quantitative method which produces descriptive data, originating from data collection. Supported by the documentary-bibliographic review. In addition, the inductive-deductive method was used. The analytical-synthetic method was also used. It is concluded that alternative measures to the deprivation of liberty are a mechanism little valued by those who impart justice, thus reducing the official statistics of the prison population, giving alarming figures, considering that there is a gap between prisoners with an enforceable sentence and persons deprived of liberty through the precautionary measure of pretrial detention, thus generating insecurity in the population.
