Title: Chaotic Lives: A profile of women in the criminal justice system in Lothian and Borders
Summary: This research aimed to profile the characteristics and needs of women offenders in the Lothian and Borders CJA through quantitative and qualitative data collection. This research has highlighted the fact that women are treated in a disproportionately harsher way than men in the CJS; that women need a more welfare-oriented than punishment-oriented approach when dealing with their offending; that current provision is limited in its scope and depth to address the particular needs of women offenders; and that prosecutor and sentencer decision making precludes the early intervention needed to effectively address the specific needs and characteristics of women.
