Summary: This study examines how the composition of crime news articles influences readers' perceptions of the moral blameworthiness of vehicular homicide offenders. The findings suggest that readers tend to choose neutral or mid-point punishment when provided with limited information, but increase punishment recommendations when presented with morally charged conduct. Additionally, the study reveals that the perpetrator's immigration status plays a significant role in shaping opinions on punishment, with political ideology strongly influencing recommendations for more severe punishment when immigration status is revealed.

Summary: People facing material deprivation are more likely to engage in acquisitive crime, even though the risk of apprehension and punishment may worsen their situation. Theory suggests that individuals below a "desperation threshold" are more inclined to steal to regain resources, regardless of the severity of potential punishments. Through a series of economic game experiments involving 1000 adults from the UK and the US, we found that falling short of this threshold increased stealing behaviors, even when the overall payoff was negative. This led to low trust within microsocieties, driven by the experience of being stolen from.

Summary: This paper examines the role of community housing in social control and exclusionary tactics in Ontario. The study finds that the hegemonic discourses surrounding Ontario's Community Housing Renewal Strategy conceptualize criminalized individuals as 'non-deserving' citizens, legitimizing exclusionary tactics as 'crime reduction' strategies.

Bloodstream infection, gastrointestinal infection, and pneumonia have the biggest impact on post-discharge costs.

Summary: This paper contributes to the debate on the impact of juvenile crime punishment using administrative data from a southern U.S. state. It finds that juvenile incarceration increases the propensity of being convicted for a drug offense in adulthood while lowering the propensity to be convicted of a property crime. Additionally, it has a detrimental effect on high school completion for earlier cohorts but has no impact on later cohorts.

Summary: This study examined the willingness of Trump supporters to punish bank fraud and tested whether the race of the criminal influenced their willingness. The results showed that participants with a strong faith in Trump were less supportive of prison sentences but more supportive of deportation. The effect of faith in Trump changed when the criminal was portrayed as Chinese American.

Summary: The victimisation rates of Dutch individuals increase significantly at ages 16 and 18. By analyzing offence location data, cross-cohort variation in the minimum legal drinking age, and survey data on alcohol/drug consumption and mobility behaviors, it is found that certain rights granted at 16 (such as weak alcohol, bars/clubs, and smoking) increase victimisation risk, while additional rights granted at 18 (such as hard alcohol and marijuana coffee shops) exacerbate this risk. Vehicle access does not play a significant role, and there is no evidence of spillover effects onto individuals who are still ineligible for these rights.

Summary: The irrigation communities in south-eastern Spain maintained social stability and economic efficiency by implementing flexible punishment for water theft; the study found that recidivists were punished more severely for the same offence, and judgements were stricter when the defendant was wealthy or the victim was poor.

Summary: A study proposes a system dynamics model to evaluate the impact of punitive measures on regular bidders' decision-making for collusion, finding that certainty of punishment is more effective than severity of punishment. These two punitive measures are not interchangeable in deterring collusion decisions.

Summary: This study examines how homicide, racial threat, and media discourse interacted to influence the timing and persistence of prison growth in the United States. The results show that criminal threat narratives have a significant impact on prison growth, while economic and political threat narratives have little explanatory power. The homicide rate and criminal threat narratives both have long-term effects on the incarceration rate.

Summary: This article explores how the British and their subjects in Mandate Palestine utilized the prison visiting system as a political tool for their own conflicting purposes, ultimately challenging the core principle of colonial difference. By examining this system, it sheds light on the tension between penal reform and the larger colonial agenda in a pioneering approach to the political history of the colonial prison.
