This book was released on 1970 with total page 252 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A number of pre-trial release studies which have been conducted during the past several years show that various measures of criminal activity while on release vary from 7.9 percent (reindictment for those indicted on felony charges) to 70 percent (re-arrest of those originally arrested on a robbery charge). Little actual sentence data were available for or presented in these studies, and no personal data on the defendants or facts about the crimes themselves were shown. This document describes a pilot study of a thorough analysis of criminal cases, including both felonies and misdemeanors, in a four week sample of cases in the District of Columbia during the first half of 1968. The method of data collection is described, together with attendant problems. Summary data for 712 defendants in a sample of 4 weeks taken from the first half of 1968 are presented. Comparisons are made to show the re-arrest rates for defendants initially charged with particular classes of crime. Personal characteristics are examined to determine if any are significant predictors of recidivism. A recidivism index is formulated to give the rate of re-arrest per man-day of exposure. Robbery cases are examined in more detail. (Author).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most contentious and sensitive topics in criminal justice, Life after Life Imprisonment looks at the release and resettlement of life-sentenced offenders in England and Wales - where there are very few prisoners in the system for whom 'life' means life. By providing an in-depth analysis of the post-prison experiences of 138 discretionary life-sentenced offenders, all of whom released during the mid-1990s, this book looks at the reality facing Lifers as they are released at some time during their sentences, usually on very long licences, to be closely monitored and supervised by probation officers. Using accessible and comprehensive data, it examines key legal developments within the criminal justice system for discretionary life-sentenced offenders, explores the frontline experiences of the probation officers charged with supervising life-sentenced offenders, and analyses the 'stories' or life narratives of a group of individuals who have committed some of the most serious crimes. It also examines the process of recall for life-sentenced prisoners and explores key factors associated with failure in the community. Of interest to legal scholars and criminologists, as well as practitioners in the field, Catherine Appleton's book offers a major insight into how societies respond to serious crime and identifies important elements of successful reintegration for released life-sentenced offenders.

Book excerpt: "[The report] finds that supervision -– probation and parole -– drives high numbers of people, disproportionately those who are Black and brown, right back to jail or prison, while in large part failing to help them get needed services and resources. In states examined in the report, people are often incarcerated for violating the rules of their supervision or for low-level crimes, and receive disproportionate punishment following proceedings that fail to adequately protect their fair trial rights."--Publisher website.
