We aimed at sharing the drawbacks of the forensic evaluation of a child who committed repetitive crimes and each time referred to different centers for forensic psychiatric evaluation. Case: Our case is a 13 years old boy. Within a 45 days period, he is accused of committing 5 crimes namely theft and damage to property. He was referred to different centers for each crime for criminal responsibility assessment. Therefore Different decisions were made and discordant judicial reports were prepared for similar crimes. As a result of this discrepancy, judicial units needed new evaluations for each crime. Discussion: Precaution reports should be prepared about the children who are committed recurrent crimes. In order to be prepared the precaution report, evaluators should have been informed about all judicial elements. Thus, as well as discrepancies are removed accurate evaluations can be possible.
