在过度热心的驱动器,以刑事犯罪和针对无家可归者的罪行,主要是与他们的贫困状况,本文提出的论点,无家可归产生警务目标,并通过扩展,惩罚。借鉴在英国进行的经验证据,本文强调了挑战,没有固定住所的刑事司法系统内提出。看看无家可归如何影响个人的经验,在刑事司法系统,包括审前监禁,定罪和缓刑,本文认为,诉诸监禁无家可归的人口不能脱离上升的警务和执法战略,导致不成比例的逮捕和起诉的无家可归的人口。
In the overzealous drive to criminalize and target the homeless for offences that are mostly related to their poverty status, this article makes the argument that homelessness produces targets for policing, and by extension, punishment. Drawing upon empirical evidence carried out in England, this article highlights the challenges that having no fixed abode presents within the criminal justice system. Looking at how homelessness impacts upon individual experiences in the criminal justice system, including pre-trial imprisonment, conviction and probation, this article argues that the resort to incarcerating homeless populations cannot be separated from the rise in policing and enforcement strategies that result in the disproportionate number of arrests and prosecutions of unhoused populations.
