Pink Crime: Fighting Against the Criminalization of Motherhood, Pregnancy, and Queer Identity - Couverture rigide
Synopsis
A sobering and original exposé of the law's ramped up attacks on the most vulnerable among us, and what to do about it, by the former federal prosecutor and award winning co-founder of the Indiana Innocence Project
Pink Crime is a revealing and deeply researched examination of the strategic use of criminal law by today's right-wing movement to limit the bodily autonomy of women and queer people. This powerful book examines the way the criminal justice system increasingly targets the most vulnerable populations and the alarming rate of wrongful convictions, uncovering how bias, stigma, and unreliable evidence have led to prosecution where no crime occurred.
Valena Beety, the recipient of an Independent Publisher Book Award for Women's Issues, whose scholarship was recently cited by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, paints a disturbing picture of how the deaths of loved ones--whether a husband who passed in his sleep or a child with a health condition--have been twisted into false accusations of murder due to systemic prejudices and prosecutorial overreach. The book goes beyond wrongful convictions to explore the criminalization of identity, revealing how today's legal system disproportionately punishes actions related to pregnancy, motherhood, and queer identity. Beety, whose previous work was called a "thought-provoking book about the American justice system" (Booklist) emphasizes how these legal mechanisms both strip away basic rights and lay the groundwork for even more oppressive measures in the future.
This deep and comprehensive analysis provides readers with historical context, real-life case studies, and a paradigm-shifting legal framework to understand the current threat posed by the strategic use of criminal law. By examining the interplay of wrongful convictions and the criminalization of vulnerable communities, Pink Crime serves as a wake-up call to advocates, lawyers, and citizens, equipping them with the knowledge and tools necessary to protect bodily autonomy and fundamental rights.

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. When your identity is the crime, innocence is no defense ?Beety . . . fills important gaps in our conversation around the criminal justice system and innocence.? ?Jen Marlowe, author of I Am Troy Davis A woman miscarries?and is charged with murder. A new mother tests positive for a drug her hospital administered?and loses custody of her newborn. Four women are convicted of horrific crimes against children they never touched, based on junk science and homophobia?and spend nearly twenty years in prison before being exonerated. A queer teenager takes a photo of a child?s diaper rash at work?and is sentenced to 126 years. These cases are not aberrations. They are symptoms of a system that punishes women and queer people not for what they have done, but for who they are. In the United States, nearly three-quarters of all wrongly convicted women were convicted of crimes that never occurred at all. Valena Beety, co-founder of the Indiana Innocence Project and award-winning legal scholar cited by Justice Sonia Sotomayor, reveals how ordinary tragedies?a child?s sudden death, a husband who dies in his sleep?are transformed by prosecutors into murders that never happened. These ?no crime? convictions disproportionately target women and queer people, whose identities are recast as evidence of guilt through bias, junk science, and entrenched stereotypes. Drawing on devastating real-life cases, Beety exposes how prosecutorial overreach, flawed forensic science, and cultural panic converge?and how fetal personhood laws, the fall of Roe v. Wade, and anti-LGBTQ+ legislation have dramatically expanded the reach of criminal law. What emerges is a chilling portrait of a legal system that increasingly criminalizes pregnancy outcomes, motherhood, and queer identity itself. N° de réf. du vendeur CIN1620979713VG
