The criminal code of 1931 enlarged the margins of the penalties, which meant that the justice was implemented depending on the circumstances of the offenses, but also on the personal characteristics of the criminals. In this sense, and in spite of that the code did not express gender distinction, the judges could try female offender according to the conservative gender patterns prevailing in the studied period. Thus, in addition to the law, the post-revolutionary discourses of social justice and gender became the guidelines that both used, the judicial representatives and the criminals, to nourish their narratives around justice, the first ones to punish and the seconds to decrease the costs of their criminal actions
