This study analyzes the function of Visum et Repertum in proving death caused by asphyxia in Decision Number 328/Pid.B/2024/PN Jkt.Tim and its relationship with the establishment of intent and premeditation. The research employs a normative juridical method using statutory and case approaches, with primary and secondary legal materials analyzed qualitatively. The findings show that Visum et Repertum performs strong constitutive and causal functions in establishing death by drowning through an asphyxial mechanism, including evidence from diatom examination and other forensic findings. However, its informative function has not been fully integrated into judicial reasoning when assessing intent and prior planning. CCTV footage documenting twelve submersion episodes, their duration, intervals, and the defendant’s conduct provides temporal and behavioral data that can be interpreted together with forensic findings to strengthen the evidentiary construction. This study emphasizes that Visum et Repertum does not directly prove the perpetrator’s mental state, but can provide an important objective basis for legal inference when proportionately combined with other evidence. Such integration is necessary to make judicial reasoning more transparent, systematic, scientific, and legally accountable in criminal adjudication practice.
