“…These findings are consistent with those of Lara-Millan and Van Cleve (2017), who found that felony defendants in Cook County were evaluated differently based on neoliberal logics of the "deserving" and "undeserving" poor (see also Gough et al, 2006;Van Cleve, 2016). This dichotomy between "deserving" and "undeserving" of leniency reflected divergent approaches to viewing probationers via neoliberal and penal welfare lenses (see Daly & Bouhours, 2008;Travers, 2007).…”

Much of the prior court literature has demonstrated gender and racial disparity exist across various decision-points. Less understood are the processes that produce this disparity, particularly in problem-solving courts. This article utilizes 100 observations of probation review hearings in three domestic violence courts to examine how judges, probation agents, attorneys, and probationers construct a probationer’s non-compliance. Using a critical discourse analysis approach, the author examined how probationers and their actions are constructed based upon gender and racial discourses. Gender differences in parenting responsibilities, mental health, and domestic violence discourses emerged, with racial differences in responsibility and mental health discourses.

“…Evidence suggests that sex offenders who participate in some form of reentry programming have lower recidivism rates than sex offenders who have not participated in a reentry program (Wilson & Picheca, 2005; Wilson, Picheca, & Prinzo, 2007). Although a majority of states have some form of reentry programming for offenders, there are none that specifically target the needs of sex offenders (Daly, 2008). Ideally, reentry programming for sex offenders should begin with preparation for release and also include extensive follow-up post-release to address collateral consequences.…”

In this study, the perceptions of community corrections professionals and clinical specialists toward the collateral consequences of current sex offender management policies were explored and contrasted. In addition, potential influencing factors of these perceptions were examined. Results indicate high levels of belief that sex offenders experience a variety of collateral consequences upon reentry; however, community corrections professionals are significantly less likely to believe that sex offenders experience collateral consequences than clinical specialists. Furthermore, few demographic variables were found to significantly influence the perceptions of the sample. Implications for the management of sex offenders are discussed.

“…My research group and I have painted an honest and highly detailed picture of what is occurring. We have documented the travails of victims Curtis-Fawley 2006, cited by Cossins as Daly andCurtis-Fawley 2004;2 Daly and Nancarrow 2008) and what judges say when sentencing youth sex offending in court (Bouhours and Daly 2007;Daly and Bouhours 2008a). The findings from the South Australia Juvenile Justice Project (SAJJ) on Conferencing (see Daly et al 1998;Daly 2001), the Sexual Assault Archival Study (SAAS; Daly et al 2007a), 3 and the In-Depth Study of Sexual Assault and Family Violence (Daly et al 2007b) are only now emerging.…”

responding to sexual assault is not well founded. She proposes instead that further legal reform should be pursued. I discuss the reasons for a paucity of evidence, present findings from my research, and correct and challenge several misrepresentations and assumptions in her article. Although Cossins and I agree that more must be done to increase conviction rates and improve the experience of victims in the legal process, I call for more radical and innovative change, with a wider set of violence contexts in mind. I argue that the way forward should not be limited to legal reform, but should include restorative justice, and more broadly, alternative justice practices.
