Lots of timely new content and commentary at The Crime Report

I am hopeful (though nor especially optimistic) that I will get a chance to catch up on some reading during the coming holiday weekend.  To that end, I just realized I am behind on flagging a lot of great new content at The Crime Report, and here is just a sample of what is worth catching up on at that site: 

“The Danger of a Return to Crime Alarmism” by James Austin, Todd Clear, Richard Rosenfeld, and Joel Wallman

“Can We Build an ‘Infrastructure’ for Violence Prevention?” by Greg Berman

“America Can Afford Decent Corrections Systems. Why Aren’t We Getting Them?” by Rory Fleming

“Rethinking the ‘Sex Offender’ Label” by Derek Logue
