We use the National Inmate Survey, a nationally representative survey, to identify the pains more likely to be experienced by LGB+ and trans people and the impact these pains have on serious psychological distress. We find that LGB+ and trans people report experiencing more pains of imprisonment, including a hostile institutional environment, solitary confinement placements, lack of social support, and sexual victimization from other incarcerated people and staff. The analyses reveal limited social support to be a key factor predicting serious psychological distress for LGB+ incarcerated people. The findings demonstrate a need for more research examining the experiences of LGB+ and trans people in carceral settings and the urgency for policy that provides social and mental health support.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48272,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Criminal Justice","volume":"101 ","pages":"Article 102530"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145415644","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A larger disparity for Hispanic men was observed at sentencing.

This study analyzes automated vehicle locator (AVL) data from Manchester, New Hampshire (2022−2023) to classify discretionary police patrol patterns across 5878 street segments. Using over 9.7 million GPS coordinates recorded every 10 s from patrol vehicles, we measure the proportion of patrol time that is discretionary (not assigned to a call for service) versus committed (assigned to a call for service). Group-based trajectory modeling identified three distinct groups: 55 % of street segments had high discretionary time (averaging 50 % of monthly patrol time), 26 % had medium discretionary time (averaging 38 % of monthly patrol time), and 19 % had low discretionary time (averaging 36 % of monthly patrol time). Anselin Moran's I revealed significant clustering of both high and low discretionary time segments. Multinomial logistic regression examined factors predicting discretionary time clusters. Notably, none of the crime measures significantly predicted high discretionary time hot spots, suggesting a potential misalignment between patrol availability and crime prevention needs. Traffic-related calls for service were the only police measure positively associated with high discretionary time clusters. Areas with higher concentrated disadvantage and ambient population were more likely to be discretionary time hot spots, while theft was associated with lower odds of high discretionary clustering. These findings challenge assumptions underlying place-based policing interventions and suggest that discretionary patrol time may not naturally concentrate where it is most needed for crime prevention.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48272,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Criminal Justice","volume":"101 ","pages":"Article 102543"},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145362488","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"社会学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
