Seems important if you study violence in correctional facilities 👇
New study finds chronic misconduct is associated with prison victimization. Those in top 10% and top 1% of violent misconduct had 58-64% higher risk of violent victimization. Free access for 50 days at: authors.elsevier.com/c/1n5Vz…

I get a lot of similar questions about how to transition out of social sciences and into research and alt-ac careers. Look at this- it will probably be helpful! 👇
Apr 22
I made a single page (that I will update), with resources I have written for social science students looking to transition into the private sector

Majority of folks it is a minor effort to be able to compete for private sector "data" jobs.

This type of terrible faculty behavior should never have been allowed. And, if criminology departments continue to lose their policing focus, they will become completely irrelevant in the policy space.
Unfortunately, the process has already begun.
Academia can be as bias as it wants apparently. Just ask a policing scholar…

Using SPCs new data viewer and meticulously watching the loops I was able to trace the portion of the country that has, according to SPC data, a chance of seeing hail every single day of the year.
I hear @MatthewCappucci has already secured land there...

I am by NO means a fan of snow or ice. But, I can appreciate its beauty sometimes.

✨Really excited about this publication! ✨
Kristy and I explored the ways the CJS can do harm, through errors and failures within the system. Lots to unpack here. We focus on the needs of the victims in this paper:

Check out our newest evaluation of a trauma informed abusive partner intervention! We found that the intervention appears to reduce the likelihood of rearrest and serious convictions post-program (among other things!)👇👇

From 2020-2023, law enforcement officers "exhibited higher all-cause mortality risk than the working-age population." Circulatory conditions, cancer, suicide, and COVID-19 were leading causes of death for male LEOs and cancer was the leading cause of death for female LEOs.
