This textbook provides an overview of the overlap between the criminal justice system and mental health for students of criminology and criminal justice. It provides an accessible overview of basic signs and symptoms of major mental illnesses and size of scope of justice-involved individuals with mental illness. In the United States, the law enforcement and the criminal justice system is often the first public service to be in contact with individuals suffering from mental illness or in mental distress. Those with untreated mental illnesses are often at higher risk for committing criminal acts, and due to a lack of mental health facilities, resources, and pervasive misconceptions about this population, those with mental illness often end up in the corrections system. This timely work covers the roles of each part of the criminal justice system interacting with mentally ill individuals, from law enforcement and first responders, social services, public health services, sentencing and corrections, to release and re-entry. It also addresses the crucial need of mental healthcare for criminal justice professionals, who suffer from high rates of job stress, PTSD, and other mental health issues. With new chapters on stigma, mental illness during and after disaster and crisis, and updates and new supplementary materials throughout, this book will be of interest to students of criminology and criminal justice, sociology, psychology, and public health. It will also be of interest to policy-makers and practitioners already working in the field, interacting with and addressing the needs of mentally ill individuals. .

This book argues that past inattentive treatment by state criminal justice agencies in relation to domestica abuse is now being self-consciously reversed by neoliberal governing agendas intent on denouncing crime and holding offenders to account. Criminal prosecutions are key to the UK government’s strategy to end Violence Against Women and Girls. Crown Prosecution Service policy affirms that domestic abuse offences are ‘particularly serious’ and prosecutors are reminded that it will be rare that the ‘public interest’ will not require vof such offences through the criminal courts.Seeking to unpick some of the discourses and perspectives that may have contributed to the current prosecutorial commitment, the book considers its emergence within the context of the women’s movement, feminist scholarship and an era of neoliberalism. Three empirical chapters explore the prosecution commitment on the one hand, and the impact on women’s lives on the other. The book’s final substantive chapter offers a distinctive normative conceptual framework through which practitioners may think about women who have experienced domestic abuse that will have both intellectual appeal and practical application. Antonia Porter is a Lecturer at the University of Kent, UK. She teaches Criminal Law and Evidence and Legal Ethics. Qualifying as a solicitor in 2004, she has practised as a criminal defence lawyer and as a Senior Crown Prosecutor and continues to be instructed by the Crown Prosecution Service as a trial advocate.

Met ingang van het academiejaar 2001-2002 is Tony Peters bijzonder emeritus geworden. Op velen, zowel in het binnenland als in het buitenland, heeft Tony Peters een onuitwisbare indruk gemaakt: als collega, als docent, en als wetenschappelijk onderzoeker met een bijzondere gevoeligheid voor de samenhang tussen theorie en praxis. Het is dan ook niet verwonderlijk dat het initiatief om hem een Liber Amicorum op te dragen en hem daarmee een waardige en warme hulde toe te brengen op een grote positieve respons mocht rekenen. De titel van dit Liber Amicorum "Herstelrecht tussen toekomst en verleden" staat in het teken van de thematiek, waarvan de geschiedenis later zal getuigen dat het Tony Peters was die ze in de sfeer van de theorie en de praktijk van het Belgisch strafrecht voor volwassenen geïntroduceerd heeft: het herstelrecht en de herstelbemiddeling tussen daders en slachtoffers. Gelet evenwel op de zeer gedifferentieerde wetenschappelijke onderwerpen waarop hij georiënteerd was, worden in dit boek ook tal van andere maatschappelijk en criminologisch relevante thema's aangeraakt. Dit boek is niet het enige ter huldiging van Tony Peters. Zijn naambekendheid in het buitenland en de grote waardering die hij er genoot, inspireerden het initiatief om ook een Engelstalig boek te zijner eer samen te stellen, waaraan werd medegewerkt door tal van eminente buitenlandse wetenschappers. Dit boek verschijnt onder de titel Victim policies and criminal justice on the road to restorative justice.
