Inoculation in the Courtroom: The Effect of Judicial Direction Timing on Mock Juror Decisions in a Rape Trial
In Australia, judges may issue judicial directions during a trial to counter the rape myth that resistance is required for a rape to be legitimate, despite many victim‐survivors freezing. Drawing on inoculation theory, this study tested whether the timing of such directions influences verdicts and perceptions of complainant credibility in an acquaintance rape trial. Australian community members ( N = 250) were randomly assigned to receive directi…
Women’s Pathways into Prison: Cycles of Harm
Women are a minority of the prison population, however their number is increasing at a faster rate than is the case for men. Interviews with 80 incarcerated women in Western Australian prisons revealed similar pathways commencing with adverse childhood experiences and subsequent areas of deprivation, which reverberated throughout their lives, leading to criminal behavior and imprisonment. Describing these cycles of harm, we argue that, in address…
Criminalised women: Understanding the drivers of growing female imprisonment in Western Australia
Over the last decade, the number of women in Australian prisons has been rising significantly and at a faster rate than is the case for men. Within Australia, Western Australia (WA) has the second highest rate of women in prison and the highest rate of incarcerated Indigenous women. However, research on the profile, background and experiences of women in WA prisons is limited. The current study aims to address this gap by contributing to a holist…
Silenced Survivors: A Systematic Review of the Barriers to Reporting, Investigating, Prosecuting, and Sentencing of Adult Female Rape and Sexual Assault
Sexual victimization of adult women remains an underreported crime. This systematic review identified and synthesized the barriers to reporting, investigating, prosecuting, and sentencing cases of sexual assault and rape against adult women in Western countries. Following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines, a comprehensive search was conducted on August 3, 2023, across databases including PsycINFO, M…
A criminological analysis of proceeds of crime legislation in three Australian states
In recent decades, Australian states and territories have introduced a raft of legislation aimed at stripping those involved in criminal activity of their ill-gotten gains. This contribution reports on a study into proceeds of crime legislation in three Australian jurisdictions: New South Wales, Western Australia and Queensland. Based on a document analysis and 40 interviews, we focus on the broader criminological aspects of how and why proceeds …
Forensic Experts’ Perspectives on Australian Indigenous Sexual Offenders and Factors Important in Evaluating the Risk of Recidivism
Law and ethics require that risk assessment should be cross-culturally valid and fair, but Australian research in this regard is underdeveloped. A logical first step in progressing the work required to build a strong evidence base on culturally sensitive risk assessment in Australia is to determine the expert views of those in the field. We interviewed 13 Australian evaluators who assess Indigenous sexual offenders’ recidivism risk to determine t…
Throughcare for Indigenous Peoples Leaving Prison
The concept of throughcare for Indigenous peoples leaving prison has attracted a lot of attention in Australia over the last couple of years. The reason for this is the ongoing overrepresentation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples in the criminal justice system and, more particularly, in prison. Recent approaches to address this overrepresentation are focusing on the back end of the criminal justice process, investigating reintegrat…
Throughcare needs of Indigenous people leaving prison in Western Australia and the Northern Territory
This article reports on research undertaken in Western Australia and the Northern Territory to develop effective throughcare strategies for Indigenous people leaving prison. The findings are based on interviews with Indigenous men and women in communities, with and without lived experience of prison, and local service providers. The interviews demonstrate that a thorough exit plan from prison is essential. However, for throughcare strategies to b…
The promises and perils of developing a national sex offender recidivism database in Australia
Much of what we know about sexual offenders and risk management is derived from empirical studies on sex offender populations in North America. In comparison to Canada and the United States, the evidence base in Australia on sexual offender risk management is under-developed. In this paper, we describe a current research project tasked with developing a national sex offender recidivism database to advance the evidence base in Australia. It is arg…
Reforming proceeds of crime legislation: Political reality or pipedream
In recent decades, Australian states and territories have introduced a raft of legislation aimed at stripping those involved in criminal activity of their ill-gotten gains. However, in doing so, this far-reaching legislation has the potential to undermine legal principles and protections. We recently completed a study into proceeds of crime legislation in Western Australia, New South Wales and Queensland. From our findings it is clear that Wester…
Penal diversity within Australia
In this article, we start from internationally developed models explaining growing punitiveness and increasing imprisonment rates, to analyse the penal situation within Australia. While the eight Australian jurisdictions share many of the characteristics that have been identified as being important determinants of the size of the prison population, local features of these societies result in significant differences in punishment. The aim of the a…
Special issue: Punishment, values and local cultures
This special issue contributes to a discussion that has become central to contemporary comparative penology: how best to explain convergences and divergences between Western states in their deployment of penal power. Its particular focus is on characteristics of local cultures and the underlying and distinct historical values that best account for jurisdictional particularities in penal policy and outcomes. The recent penal history of post-indust…
