Rather than being the perpetrators of offending, individuals with ASD are more likely to be the victim of crime. However, there is nevertheless a small subset of individuals with ASD who do offend, and this book provides an in-depth understanding of how certain features of ASD may provide the context of vulnerability to engaging in a number of types of offending behaviours. Chapters focus on arson or fire-setting; cybercrime (e.g., hacking); online sexual offending such as the viewing of indecent child imagery; offline sexual offending; violent crime; stalking; terroristic behaviour (including radicalisation and extremism); bestiality or zoophilia and also extreme violence such as mass shooting and serial homicide. This book also outlines the ways in which a defendant with ASD may present in court and how they may exhibit behaviour which could be misinterpreted and perceived negatively leading to an unfair trial. Lastly, it discusses the need to identify the impact that ASD can have on the capacity to form the requisite criminal intent and offer appropriate court adaptations to support them during court proceedings. This book is ideal for criminal defense lawyers and practitioners in psychology, psychiatry, and social work as well as policy makers and reformers"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Offenders with mental disabilities. 650 0 $a Autism spectrum disorders. 650 0 $a Criminal justice, Administration of. 650 2 $a Child Development Disorders, Pervasive $0 (DNLM)D002659 650 6 $a Criminels ayant une deficience intellectuelle. $0 (CaQQLa)201-0224468 650 6 $a Troubles du spectre de l'autisme. $0 (CaQQLa)000264942 650 7 $a Autism spectrum disorders. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01747518 650 7 $a Criminal justice, Administration of. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00883246 650 7 $a Offenders with mental disabilities. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01043996 776 08 $i Online version: $a Allely, Clare S. $t Autism spectrum disorder in the criminal justice system $d Abingdon, Oxon ; New York, NY : Routledge, 2022 $z 9781003212195 $w (DLC) 2021051842 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20240717012938.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=07C1C0B6C48911EDAC2163E35EECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
