Desistance from Sexual Offending
Wed, Nov 16, 8:00 to 9:20am, Hilton, Commerce, 3rd LevelSession Submission Type: Complete Thematic Panel
Abstract
The study of desistance from crime has become a well established part of the criminological literature. However, with a few exceptions, this research has neglected individuals who have committed patterns of sexual crimes. This panel will feature three studies that explore this process from a narrative perspective.
