Based on extensive original research, legal scholar Alexandra Natapoff reveals the inner workings of a massive petty offense system that produces over 13 million cases each year. People arrested for minor crimes are swept through courts where defendants often lack lawyers, judges process cases in mere minutes, and nearly everyone pleads guilty. This misdemeanor machine starts punishing people long before they are convicted; it punishes the innocent; and it punishes conduct that never should have been a crime. As a result, vast numbers of Americans -- most of them poor and people of color -- are stigmatized as criminals, impoverished through fines and fees, and stripped of drivers' licenses, jobs, and housing. For too long, misdemeanors have been ignored. But they are crucial to understanding our punitive criminal system and our widening economic and racial divides." -- Amazon.com. 000855664 650_0 $$aCrime$$zUnited States$$xClassification. 000855664 650_0 $$aCriminal justice, Administration of$$xSocial aspects$$zUnited States. 000855664 85200 $$bgen$$hKF9300$$i.N38$$i2018 000855664 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:855664$$pGLOBAL_SET 000855664 980__ $$aBIB 000855664 980__ $$aBOOK
