It examines issues and implications for autistic people, who have a significant risk for engagement with the legal system in some capacity (e.g., witness/bystander, victim, or perpetrator).
Key areas of coverage include:
Autistic people as victims and perpetrators of criminal activities, including violence, stalking, sexual exploitation, and cybercrime.
Risks for unlawful behavior in individuals with autism and Asperger's.
Legal assessment issues, such as witness protection and postconviction diagnoses.
Legal outcomes for autistic people, including case law, prevention, service provisions in correctional settings, and rights and support systems.
Risks for unlawful behavior in individuals with autism and Asperger's.
Legal assessment issues, such as witness protection and postconviction diagnoses.
