The Incarcerated Female Offenders: A Study of Inmates of Julia Tutwiler Prison.

Abstract

dc:description.abstract

Increasingly, it is noted that crime by females is on the rise, not only in the "traditional” crimes usually associated with females, such as sexual offenses (usually prostitution) and theft, but also in more serious crimes such as homicide, robbery, and aggravated assault.
