Extractions: MADD Victim Advocates (Metroplex Chapter, Texas) MADDvocate, Winter 2003 For most people, the criminal justice system can be a frustrating maze of laws, charges and legalese (the language of lawyers). When you are a victim of a violent crime such as drunk driving, the shock, grief and anger layered on top of trying to navigate through the system can be utterly overwhelming. But understanding the basics of the criminal justice system can help in seeking justice. Criminal cases begin with law enforcement officers who gather information about the crime. Victims should get the facts from the investigating officer, including information on a blood alcohol concentration (BAC) test, whether charges were filed and what type, when and where to get the crash report, and any other pertinent information. What is a 'MADD Victim Advocate' and how can one help me?

The person who is to be released from a prison in Minnesota has been convicted of a crime that requires registration with local authorities, and to keep those authorities apprised of any changes in residence. This information is kept and maintained on a computer system by the Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension and provides police agencies with essential information as to the nature and whereabouts of certain convicted criminals who reside in their jurisdictions.

Extractions: Running Head: Differential Sentencing as a Function of Gender Differential Sentencing of Juvenile Offenders as a Function of Gender John H. Bickford, Jr. Salem State College Abstract Investigated was the effect of gender bias in the assignment of suspensions for juvenile criminal offenders. Twenty-eight participants were presented with a fictional account of either male or female high-school students involved in an act of vandalism and indicated an appropriate suspension. The accounts were otherwise identical and also brief; longer sentences were found to be positively correlated ( r pb ) with the male vandal condition. It is suggested that this differential must derive from a preexisting disposition in the participants, the nature of which is not clear but may be an attitude (such as paternalism) or a cognitive schema that rationalizes such favoritism. It is a seemingly reasonable assumption that male and female juveniles receive differential treatment in the assignment of punitive measures to correct deviate or mischievous behaviors. A common belief is that female miscreants receive preferential treatment and are punished with less severity than males. This assumption appeals strongly to common sense, and it does correspond to some similar findings regarding the adjudication of adult criminal offenders. Zingraff and Thomson (1984) found that adult females convicted of felony offenses received significantly shorter sentences than adult males convicted of similar crimes; however, in contrast to the common sense expectation, this study also found that female
