Crime Research Update: October 11
A directory of recent research, organized by crime type and criminal justice/legal system stage
Hello! I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is The Art of Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you think and write about crime.
Use this tip sheet to craft explanations informed by the latest research. It's an experimental directory of new crime research published by the academic journals that I monitor.
Today's paid directory contains links to studies published online in the last few days, including this one:
Journal: Criminology & Public Policy
Keywords: criminal justice, justice, policy, arrest, court, trial, conviction, evidence, prison, detention, release
Geography: [unsupported at the moment]
Author info: Matthew DeMichele (Center for Criminal Legal Systems Research, RTI International Research Triangle Park North Carolina USA) [+2 other authors]
I publish tip sheets like this one on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays. The paywall on these paid tip sheets will be lifted a week after their initial publication.
If your interests or work deadlines mean you can't wait until next week for this week's research, consider becoming a paid subscriber to get three updates per week of the latest research.
You’ll find today’s new research below, sorted by two broad categories: crime type and criminal justice/legal system stage. Research that doesn’t get sorted into those categories follows under “Unsorted Research.”
(The following paywall will be lifted in a week. If you’re a free subscriber, you’ll get an email with access to this post.)
N.B.: The initial sorting is done by code, and the algorithm is still in early days. You should expect errors, even though I catch what I can. If you're so inclined, let me know about any errors you notice so that I can correct them and figure out how to improve the algorithm.
