Criminal (In)Justice

In Criminal (In)Justice, Rafael A. Mangual critically examines America's criminal justice reform movement, challenging the narrative that reforms like mass decarceration and depolicing are simply solutions to systemic issues. Drawing on research, data, and personal experience, the book argues that misguided leniency can endanger vulnerable communities and overlooks the importance of traditional crime control measures. It offers a balanced perspective on the complexities of criminal justice, emphasizing the importance of data-driven policies to reduce injustices.
