Respondents described their recent verbal and violent disputes, including their adversary's gender and social relationship. Results suggest that men with stronger honor attitudes are more likely to engage in violence and verbal aggression against strangers and familiar (but non-intimate) adversaries, and more likely to use verbal aggression against female partners but are no more likely to use violence against them.

Gang membership is associated with higher rates of criminal offending, drug use, school dropout, teenage parenthood, and joblessness. While various strategies have been developed to address gang violence, police tactics have primarily focused on suppression. However, it is well known that suppression tactics can lead to overzealous policing with potentially detrimental effects on communities. Limited research exists on the impact of police officers' engagement in prevention and intervention activities to address gang violence. Based on in-depth interviews with police officers in a specialized community policing unit in Trinidad and Tobago, this paper explores police efforts to intervene in gang-related issues in communities facing high levels of gang violence. The officers we interviewed believe their efforts to engage respectfully with community members, including known gang members, resulted in a favorable community response to police work and residents' buy-in towards police initiatives. This study contributes to understanding the perspectives of specialized community policing officers seeking to improve the quality of life for residents in communities beset by gang violence and highlights the challenges and potential benefits of respectful community engagement strategies.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48272,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Criminal Justice","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 102382"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143534532","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}

However, proposed reform efforts primarily focus on risk-management strategies, rather than strategies to address criminogenic needs. Pretrial supervision agencies commonly rely on drug testing as a compliance-based strategy to monitor illicit substance use. Existing research on pretrial drug testing, however, is limited and dated. We conducted a retrospective non-equivalent comparison group study, using propensity score matching and instrumental variable analysis, to examine the effect of pretrial drug testing on pretrial supervision outcomes. Findings from a matched sample of 291 defendants ordered to pretrial drug testing and 748 defendants not ordered to pretrial drug testing showed drug testing increased the odds of pretrial failure (OR = 1.78; ME = 0.47). Although the instrumental variable analysis was limited by a small sample size and a weak instrument, findings were consistent in direction and magnitude with weighted models. Our findings suggest drug testing may not be a suitable mechanism to advance the goals of pretrial supervision, though our findings were limited to a single jurisdiction. Instead, pretrial agencies may need to consider using drug testing as a mechanism of determining progress and guiding conversations with defendants on supervised pretrial release.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":48272,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Criminal Justice","volume":"97 ","pages":"Article 102386"},"PeriodicalIF":3.3,"publicationDate":"2025-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143552497","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}

Findings document staff perceptions in the four different domains under investigation. Specifically, the role of policy rollout and opportunities for input emerged as important sub-themes under communication while the nature of training and the role of reassignments were important sub-themes under training and education. Findings related to staffing and leadership underscored the role of firing, hiring and recruitment strategy, as well as organizational structure and leadership style. Lastly, several sub-themes emerged under transparency and accountability, pointing to the divergence between internal and external transparency efforts, inconsistency in metrics, and the important role of the office's research lab.

However, the consideration of lesser culpability and rehabilitation factors could vary depending on the parole candidate's age at the time of the crime. This study analyzes data coded from written parole board decisions of one state to examine how these factors predict parole outcomes across parole candidates incarcerated for crimes committed during youth, specifically focusing on those considered emerging adults at the time. Regression analyses found factors related to an emerging adult's reduced culpability, such as a history of parental abuse, decreased the likelihood of release, but rehabilitation factors increased the odds of release, suggesting age at the time of the crime may play a role in parole decision-making.
