ABSTRACT In this paper, I present the punishment called cyberbanishment. This sanction refers to the old-fashioned punishment of forbidding a person to be present in specific places, but instead of physical locations this sanction concerns digital spheres. The proposition of introducing cyberbanishment is based on a few observations. First, the current practices of punishment are problematic, and there is a need for alternative punishments. Second, this form of sanction may be a proper response to crimes committed online, like hate crimes or punishable threats. Third, the online sphere becomes more important each year, and this was even amplified by the recent pandemic. The development of virtual realities and metaverses could contribute to this trend. Fourth, as an instrument imposed by courts, cyberbanishment may increase judicial control over the limitations of constitutionally protected freedoms in the online world, which is currently decided mainly by the platforms themselves.

ABSTRACT Prior research has shown that social variables are linked to delinquent and criminal outcomes by facets of antisocial cognition. The current study set out to determine if a person’s perception of different social variables, in this case parental support/monitoring and peer delinquency, are likewise linked by some of these same variables, cognitive insensitivity specifically. Analyses performed across three time periods measured one year apart using data from the Pocono Bullying Study (N = 845, 406 boys and 439 girls, mean age at baseline = 11.2 years) revealed that one of the two pathways (parental monitoring → cognitive insensitivity → peer delinquency) predicted to be significant, was, in fact, significant. Conversely, the two pathways predicted to be non-significant (i.e. the ones mediated by cognitive impulsivity) were non-significant, although the difference between the one significant insensitivity-mediated pathway and its corresponding impulsivity-mediated pathway failed to achieve significance. The results of this study provide partial support for the notion that facets of antisocial thinking may not only mediate relationships between social context variables and delinquent outcomes, but relationships between certain groups of perceived social context variables as well.

ABSTRACT Law enforcement agents are often the first professionals to come into contact with victims of commercial sexual trafficking (CST). While they likely have encountered female victims of CST, they may need increased understanding of the identification of male victims. This study evaluated the effectiveness of a training program aimed to increase awareness of male victims of CST among law enforcement professionals. Participants’ (N = 132) knowledge level was examined prior to the training and immediately thereafter and results showed that pretest knowledge scores were low. The majority of participants (77%) did not have prior training in CST in males and there was a significant gain in knowledge from pre to posttest. None of the participants’ demographic variables were significant predictors of pretest or posttest scores. Implications for training law enforcement in male CST are provided.

ABSTRACT Police-initiated diversion practices allow officers to divert youth away from the justice system. This qualitative study addresses one such Southern California program to understand the subjective experiences of youth and parents through in-depth interviews. Thirty-eight respondents, 19 youth and 19 parents, were interviewed for this study. Results demonstrate how an increase in positive interactions with police officers and diversion program staff can influence how youth comply with the law and legal institutions. Interviews emphasized youths’ complex attitudes toward police and the law, highlighting the importance for police and diversion programs to engage in transparent practices to facilitate a greater understanding of diversion and reduce potentially traumatic feelings from initial police contact.

ABSTRACT The aim of this study is to learn more about the factors that influence citizen perceptions of the public right to view BWC footage of a critical incident as well as police communication afterwards. To accomplish this, we used a 2 × 2 vignette where citizen race and object were manipulated to different conditions. Using a survey instrument sent to Amazon Mturk workers, several notable findings related to demographic and media perceptions were found regarding the public’s right to view the footage. White respondents were more likely to believe that the public should be able to view the footage involving the Black suspect holding a cellphone, whereas White respondents were less likely to believe that the public should be able to view the footage involving a Black suspect holding a handgun. Age was positively related to supporting increased communication from police for the scenario with a Black suspect with a cellphone,among several other significant relationships. As media hostility increased, respondents were less likely to support increased communication from the police. Perceptions of media hostility consistently influenced respondent perceptions of the public’s right to view BWC footage and police communication across all manipulations.

ABSTRACT There are various psychological factors that could impact a parole member’s decision, including whether the prisoner apologizes. This study investigates the effects of an apology’s type and timing on parole members’ release decisions. MTurk participants (N = 460) read vignettes describing a prisoner whose apology differed in its timing (at trial, parole hearing, or both) and type (full, partial). An apology at both the trial and parole hearing is the most effective apology, and a partial parole apology is the least effective apology. This apology also affects the parole member’s perception of the prisoner. Further, male participants (compared to female participants) are more empathetic toward, more likely to feel sorry for, and more likely to perceive similarities with the prisoner. These findings can help the legal system understand how apologies affect parole members’ decisions, and how to create laws that can systematically allow apologies to be considered in parole releases.

ABSTRACT Correctional officers are a valuable and expensive resource for prisons. Working as a correctional officer is a unique experience; it involves controlling incarcerated individuals, and this results in demands that can wear on officers, increasing chances of suffering depression. Social support has been postulated to help buffer the negative effects of working in a prison and reduce depressive symptomatology. Using data from 501 correctional officers employed in a Southern prison system, this study examined the relationship between the three types of social support – family, coworker, and supervisor – on depression symptoms measured using the Center for Epidemiologic Studies Depression (CESD) scale. Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression results indicated both family support and supervisor support were significantly related to the level of depression symptoms; coworker support, however, had a nonsignificant association. The results indicate efforts should be made to raise family support and supervisor support.

ABSTRACT The sociodemographic backgrounds of inmates are essential for understanding their prison experiences and the extent to which they cope with incarceration and recidivate upon release. The notion that military veterans might fare differently from other groups in the correctional system has existed for decades; yet scholars have only recently begun to focus on the effects that prior service has on metrics of prison adjustment and beyond. Increased emphasis on the prison experiences of military veterans necessitates a review of the studies published to date. In the current study, we take stock of the empirical research conducted on incarcerated veterans by systematically reviewing all articles published online between 2000 and 2022. Overall, we find little evidence to support the view that veteran status confers any specific benefits or vulnerabilities during incarceration or following release. However, given the limitations of the studies reviewed, we address several methodological concerns regarding the study of former service members and provide directions for future research.

ABSTRACT Many religions often require followers to attend services at physical places of worship (PWs). However, the combination of individuals interacting with one another and the mere presence of physical structures for worship create numerous crime opportunities. The current study examines 6,772 crimes reported to police that occurred at PWs over a two-calendar year period (2009–2010) in one large Southern U.S. metropolitan city. Specifically, this study examines the types/frequencies of crime reported to police at PWs and the geospatial characteristics of PWs that were hotspots. In total, 78 crime categories occurred in the 1,081 unique cases, with theft being the most common offense. Additionally, most hotspot PWs were located near major intersections or bypasses. Policy implications and directions for future research will also be discussed.

ABSTRACT The academic field of Convict Criminology (CC) started in the mid-1990s. In general, CC argues that the insights and experiences of currently and formerly incarcerated men and women are typically ignored in scholarly research and policy making circles. Since its founding a considerable amount of scholarly activity connected to this school, movement, and network occurred. Although CC scholars have reviewed the CC literature and activities, none have performed a rigorous content analysis of the scholarship in this field. This approach is important to understand who has written this work, their background, the venues where this academic writing has been published, the content of this work, and the impact of this literature. More importantly this type of analysis may provide a better sense of what kinds of future research on CC, or using the CC approach, should be conducted. Specifically, this study presents the results of a content analysis of 79 pieces of scholarship on CC published between 2001 and August 2022. The conclusion points out areas where continued scholarship using the Convict Criminology framework may be conducted.
