The purpose of this work is to carry out a theoretical review, identifying the descriptive elements that give support to why femicide is considered an autonomous crime. This review will be developed through the determination of representative elements of the criminal type, through the analysis of some of the cases of national connotation, which applied Law 1761 of 2015, better known as the Rosa Elvira Cely Act, which introduced the Criminal Code the crime of femicide as Autonomous Crime and established the constitutive and differentiating characteristics of the criminal type, since it facilitated the typical adaptation in the investigations carried out by the accusing body and thus avoids in another way the possible conflicts of interpretation in the oral phase of the criminal process.
