| dc.description.notes | General Overview: This article reports on findings of a study conducted in the United States around the effectiveness of mandatory and recommended arrest laws in reducing domestic violence.<br/ ><br/ >Discussion: The author used FBI Supplementary Homicide Reports to examine the differences between US states which had introduced mandatory arrest laws for family violence, and states which have not passed such laws but recommend that police arrest perpetrators. The study found that mandatory arrest laws increase the number of intimate partner homicides. The author discusses two potential mechanisms or hypotheses which might explain the result: the effect on victims (reporting): reduced reporting; and the effect on perpetrators (reprisal): increased intensity of attacks. | en |
