“…Research shows that these populations are exposed to greater traumatic events than the general population (Bebbington et al, 2017; Facer-Irwin et al, 2021; Ford et al, 2019; Macinnes et al, 2016). Trauma and PMIEs can result in various consequences which increase the likelihood of encountering forensic services, including greater anger, hostility, and substance use (Kelley, Braitman, et al, 2019; Maguen et al, 2021; Martin et al, 2017; Wojciechowski, 2021), homelessness (Edwards et al, 2021), sexual victimization (Facer-Irwin et al, 2021), direct interpersonal violence (Facer-Irwin et al, 2021), and terrorism, radicalization, or extremism (Williamson et al, 2021). Research indicates a correlation between traumatic experiences and an increased likelihood of engaging in violent or offending behavior (Ardino, 2012; Bianchini et al, 2022; Nedegaard & Cronin, 2021).…”
