Your First Five Crime Studies of January 16
Today's crime studies include work on same-sex marriage and intimate partner violence clearance
I'm Aaron Jacklin, and this is Explaining Crime, an independent newsletter that helps you explain crime to your audience.
Your First Five is a daily (M-F) series that publishes a curated selection of recent research related to crime and justice. Each post contains links to new studies that I hope will enhance your work explaining crime. Published each weekday at about 7 a.m., E.S.T.
(Subscribers: If Your First Five doesn't interest you, remember that you can choose which types of posts you receive. Just click ‘Unsubscribe’ at the bottom of any of my emailed posts and select the sections you want on the next screen. It's super quick.)
