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 help you integrate the latest research into your work. It's a directory of new crime research published by the academic journals that I monitor, including this study:

First author: Adrienne Freng (Department of Criminal Justice & Sociology, University of Wyoming, Laramie, WY, USA) [+1 other author]

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.”

Three weeks from now, the rest of this paid tip sheet unlocks and free subscribers will be notified by email.
