This text follows the forces and flows that make up the process of building suspicion in the approach actions carried out by the Military Police of the State of Rio de Janeiro. In the insufficient precision of normative parameters that guide the Military Police approach, the “tirocinium,” as an analyzing resource, encourages our reflections on which subjectivities are produced and updated in the selection of the alleged criminal subject. In this cartography, young black people and favela residents are the preferred profile of capture networks, which restrict rights and expose specific groups to situations of greater vulnerability.
