The criminal process is supported by three fundamental pillars, on the one hand, it is the mechanism to respond to conflicts of interest as a result of the commission of a crime; Once this conflict has been raised, this is precisely the means for its resolution governed by principles and guarantees of a due process in which it is intended that the parties in conflict are the ones who promote its resolution with their allegations and evidence that support the facts. That is the reason that gives relevance to the probative performance of the parties in the process, because it is the allegations and evidence that determine the grounds that will support the pronouncement of the judge. From there arises the testimony as one of the mechanisms to justify the alleged facts. However, in the judicial field it is presumed that any citizen is capable of giving a statement in a process, although the norm establishes certain assumptions that limit this action, expressly establishing the subjects exempt from giving their testimony, so that it has not been established a subjective criterion. However, the testimonial statements present certain particularities of a procedural nature with respect to the subject in his capacity as a party, either as a victim, witness or as an alleged active subject of the criminal offense. These particularities, especially in minors, will be part of the focus of this investigation, as well as the assessment of the testimony and the limits to render statements of minors in accordance with current legislation and the various criteria provided by doctrine and jurisprudence. Let us remember that the Spanish criminal process is governed by the principle of the free evaluation of the evidence in accordance with art. 741 LECrim. That is, the court appreciates the evidence according to its conscience in response to the motivations raised by the prosecution, the defense and what was expressed by the defendant. Bearing in mind that the free assessment of the evidence should not be understood as the discretion or arbitrariness of the judge to interpret the facts, but rather assess the evidence under rational criteria rules, with logic, and the maximum of experience provided by the experts. In this context, the general objective of the investigation is the study of the legislation regulating the figure of the witness, in his capacity as a minor in criminal proceedings, in order to determine if with the current regulations, the State in its sanctioning power can safeguard the defendant's right to defense and at the same time safeguard the minor's mental health by acting as a witness and victim in criminal trials with the application of the established guarantee regime.
