Description

Sexual crime remains a topic of massive public concern, yet much of the debate surrounding its causes and the responses of the criminal justice system is driven by prejudice and a lack of understanding. Acts of Abuse provides a necessary look at the reality of sexual crime to move beyond these misconceptions. Written by Adam Sampson and published by Routledge, this book explores how the criminal justice system handles these critical issues. The text examines existing research regarding the causes of rape and child abuse, the actual number of offenses committed, and the specific policies used by the courts. By looking at the practical application of the law, the author provides an analysis of how the probation service and the prison system respond to these offenses. This work offers a clear examination of the intersection between criminal theory and the reality of the justice system, making it a valuable resource for understanding the complexities of sexual crime and institutional responses.
