Brief Report: Judicial Attitudes Regarding the Sentencing of Offenders with High Functioning Autism / Colleen M. BERRYESSA in Journal of Autism and Developmental Disorders, 46-8 (August 2016)
[article]
Titre : Brief Report: Judicial Attitudes Regarding the Sentencing of Offenders with High Functioning Autism Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Colleen M. BERRYESSA, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.2770-2773 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Judiciary High Functioning Autism (HFA) Sentencing Punishment Prison Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This brief report presents preliminary data on the attitudes of judges on the sentencing of offenders with High Functioning Autism (HFA). Semi-structured telephone interviews were conducted with twenty-one California Superior Court Judges. Interviews were qualitatively coded and constant comparative analysis was utilized. Findings revealed that judges consider HFA as both a mitigating and aggravating factor in sentencing, and knowledge of an offender’s disorder could potentially help judges understand why a criminal action might have been committed. Judges voiced concerns about the criminal justice system being able to effectively help or offer sentencing options for offenders with HFA. Finally, judges reported that they are focused on using their judicial powers and influence to provide treatment and other resources during sentencing.

YOUNG, Auteur Article en page(s) : p.3314-3320 Langues : Anglais (eng) Mots-clés : Adult Australia Autism Spectrum Disorder Autistic Disorder Criminal Law/methods Criminals Humans Autism Criminal behaviour Offending Punishment?criminal justice Sentencing Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Although people diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) are not more likely to commit crimes, they are overrepresented in the criminal justice system as reported by Howlin (Autism and Asperger syndrome: Preparing for adulthood, Routledge, 2004). This may, in part, be due to unfavourable interactions with the criminal judiciary. Evidence suggests the autistic population are perceived unfavourably in adjudicative proceedings resulting in harsher penalties. The present study explores whether ASD offenders (ASD-O) receive longer sentences compared to national sentencing data. Sentencing data from the Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) were used to compare ASD-O with similar offences. ASD-O attracted longer sentences across all offence classifications. Inferential analyses indicated sexual assault sentences were significantly higher in the ASD-O sample. No significant differences were found for murder, manslaughter, and assault.
