Sex Offenders: Crimes and Processing in the Criminal Justice System

  • Edition : 2nd ed., 2023
  • Author(s) : Maddan, Pazzani

In Sex Offenders: Crimes and Processing in the Criminal Justice System, Maddan and Pazzani draw on their extensive research and teaching experience to provide coverage of all facets of sex crimes and sexual deviance in the United States. The text emphasizes rape and sexual offenses against children and society’s responses through the criminal justice system, including enforcement and investigation, the courts, corrections, and post-punishment treatment. Up-to-date information, statistics, and research assessments include imprisonment, historical punishments, recidivism, registration and notification requirements (SORN), residence restrictions, civil commitments, and treatment. The impact of sex offenses on victims’ lives is treated in depth, as are possible directions for future policies to better address the threat posed by sex offenders. Students reading this book will get a true sense of the U.S. sex offender problem, the responses of the criminal justice system, and what can be done to further decrease the incidence of sex offending.

New to the Second Edition:

  • A fresh examination of sexual harassment in the workplace in light of the #MeToo movement.
  • Incorporation throughout the book of the etiology of sexual harassment.
  • In-depth consideration of why sexual harassment is not handled through the criminal justice system as a criminal offense.
  • Updated literature, research, and statistics on sex crimes and criminal justice processing.
  • New example stories that highlight more recent real-world instances of sex crimes and criminal justice responses to sex crimes.
