The Debatable Case of Mrs. Emsley

True Crime Stories

The Times best thrillers for April 2026 'A propulsive thriller' Irish Independent 'A tense, fast-paced thriller about moral compromise' i PAPER 'Tom Bradby has created a magnificent woman in Dr Laura Strong. [A] powerfully entertaining novel' Literary Review Life for Dr Laura Strong shouldn't be this hard. Nights working thankless A&amp;E shifts. A much-loved disabled brother to look after. Loan sharks at her door. She needs a miracle to stop her life collapsing around her. The arrival of South American coffee magnate Rafael Fernandez appears to be the answer to her prayers. A devoted father with a sick son requiring a 24/7 care, he is prepared to pay any price for expertise he can trust. But if something appears to be too good to be true, then it probably is. Behind the façade of Rafa's gilded existence lies a dark family history which he has been doing his best to avoid - until the death of his estranged father brings it crashing back into his - and Laura's - world. What had at first seemed to be a remarkable escape from an impossible situation now threatens to destroy everything Laura cares about. Friendless and far from home, she must rely on her own instincts to find a way out of this terrifying new landscape. Sometimes it's easier to trust the devil you know...

Crime and Justice in Digital Society

This book examines the relationship between true crime and wrongful conviction in the age of streaming content. True crime plays a vital role in informing, entertaining, and developing public expectations surrounding justice. During the streaming era, true crime has emerged as a profitable option for content producers, leading to a form of engaged fandom entwined in the narratives of victims and criminals.&nbsp;The book is a culmination of research and analysis into the role of true crime in raising public awareness of narratives of wrongful conviction. It examines the effects on audience participation in seeking justice through digital enabled opportunities like crowd-sourcing, websleuthing, and online activism.

Palgrave Socio-Legal Studies

This book examines the relationship between LGBTIQ communities and law in Australia from colonial times to the present day, with a particular concentration on the last 40 years. Using a socio-legal analysis that combines legislation, case law, media reports, policy materials and government data, it traces the historical shift from criminalisation and erasure to conditional legal recognition. The book develops a critical queer perspective, analysing how sexual and gender minorities moved from being classified through the figure of the criminal ‘homosexual’ to being recognised as members of LGBTIQ communities with a status of almost legal equality. Structured historically, its chapters examine distinct phases of legal reform, governance and LGBTIQ activism. The book covers key issues in sexuality, gender, family, embodiment and sex classification, while offering an extended account of the legal questions affecting lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex and queer people. Although focused on Australia, it speaks to wider debates across post-colonial jurisdictions, Commonwealth countries and the United States. It will be of interest to students and academics in socio-legal studies, queer legal theory, sexuality and gender studies, law reform, and LGBTIQ politics and activism.Allen George
 is Lecturer in Socio-Legal Studies at the University of Sydney, Australia, where he has lectured since 2009. His research focuses on law, sexuality, gender and LGBTIQ communities. He has also taught sociology and criminology at the University of Newcastle.

From Erasure to Eligibility

Law, Governance and the Queer Subject

Through a collection of carefully curated readings, The Law Behind the Wall: An American Corrections Anthology offers a critical exploration of the United States correctional system. It traces the history, philosophy, and structure of American corrections, examining the operation of jails and prisons, community supervision, juvenile detention, death row, and more. The anthology also illuminates theories of punishment and the social and ethical implications of correctional practice.

Bringing together diverse perspectives, the volume investigates the relationship between individual behavior and broader societal forces within the realm of corrections. Its selections address key themes such as mental and physical health challenges in confinement, equity in treatment for underrepresented groups, evaluation of prison education programs, and the enduring tension between punishment and justice. Each section includes learning objectives, discussion questions, and written assignments to support both student learning and faculty instruction. Designed to move beyond surface-level understanding, the anthology encourages thoughtful engagement with the complexities and contradictions of modern corrections.

The Law Behind the Wall is ideally suited for undergraduate courses in corrections, criminal justice, and criminology. It deepens students' comprehension of correctional philosophy, inmate experiences, and special populations within the correctional system, offering a comprehensive and pedagogically structured overview of the field.

suspicion, advocates supporting the wrongfully accused, and professionals seeking to improve practice and policy. It highlights warning signs of flawed investigations, points to emerging scientific developments, and outlines constructive reforms that can save families-and systems-from repeating the same mistakes. CAN YOU PROVIDE A 250 WORD SHORT DESCRIPTIONShow moreInfant deaths are every parent's worst nightmare-and when grief is compounded by wrongful accusation, the result is a lifelong catastrophe. Infant Death Exonerations: The Folbigg Case - A Practical Guide for Families, Advocates and Professionals examines how misunderstandings of medical evidence, rare genetic conditions, and entrenched biases can turn tragedy into a criminal conviction. Centered on the Kathleen Folbigg case and linked to other infant death exonerations worldwide, it shows how shaken baby syndrome allegations, SIDS diagnoses, and ambiguous autopsy findings can be misread in court, and how emerging genetics and forensic science are changing the landscape.Written in clear, accessible language, the book explains how infant deaths are investigated, where evidence commonly goes wrong, and how tunnel vision, flawed expert testimony, and systemic failures can produce miscarriages of justice. It highlights warning signs of defective investigations, points to new medical and scientific developments, and outlines practical steps families, defence teams, innocence projects, and journalists can take when a baby's death is treated as a crime. Both a case study of the Folbigg exoneration and a broader roadmap for reform, this guide is essential reading for lawyers, doctors, forensic pathologists, child protection professionals, and anyone concerned about how the criminal justice system handles sudden infant deaths.

INFANT DEATH EXONERATIONS

A Brutal Night in Victorian Bedford: The Story of Frederic Budd.

On a warm Sunday night in May 1863, 39-year-old solicitor Frederic Budd was walking home through the familiar streets of Bedford with his wife, Frances following a. pleasant day with friends. As they walked arm in arm along Castle Lane, a chance encounter with a group of men violently shattered their peaceful lives. Left bloodied and dazed, Frederic managed to reach his home on Kimbolton Road, by dawn the next morning, he was dead.

Two men stood trial for his murder. But how reliable were the witnesses that night? Could the words of the dead man be taken as fact? Was the evidence strong enough to send two individuals to a hangman's noose?

Based on meticulous research into court records, newspaper archives, and original testimonies, this book delves into the lives of the victim and those caught up in the dramatic events of the summer of 1863 in Bedford. Did the right men stand trial and did the jury deliver the right verdict?

The Killing in Castle Lane

Hart Studies in European Criminal Law

This book offers a comprehensive legal analysis of the urgent challenges posed by deepfakes, focusing on the restrictive measures proposed or introduced to address their related harms. Readers will gain a clear understanding of the harms associated with deepfakes - especially in areas like non-consensual sexualised content and political disinformation - and how criminal and digital regulatory systems are attempting to respond. From a criminal law perspective, the book offers a dual-level critique. On the one hand, criminal law is invoked for its expressive and symbolic function, particularly in response to the discriminatory and gender-based harms often associated with deepfakes, as well as the broader need to prevent systemic risks to democratic society when it comes to electoral manipulation and freedom of thought. Here, criminal law would play a vital role in affirming societal condemnation of such conduct and in acknowledging the serious impact on victims. On the other hand, its use is increasingly entangled with emerging frameworks of digital regulation, taking on a more instrumental role in defining illegal content and reinforcing standards shaped primarily by private platforms and regulatory bodies. This dual function raises fundamental questions about the legitimacy and efficacy of using criminal law-the most coercive form of state power-for purposes that extend beyond its traditional scope. Additionally, the book explores regulatory measures aimed at controlling deepfakes, considered both as AI-generated content and as harmful online material. Discussions around content moderation, transparency duties-such as labelling and watermarking-and safety by design measures are gaining attention globally, with the European Union's Digital Services Act and AI Act leading the way. The book's primary goal is to bridge the two worlds of criminal law and digital regulation through a careful and critical analysis, making it a valuable resource for a broad audience.

Cornerstone on...

Inquests and inquiries form a distinct area of law in which the aim of the tribunal is to discover what happened, rather than who is right, wrong, or at fault. Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries provides an accessible, go-to guide to this area of practice, useful for both practitioners and parties involved. It looks at the field as a whole, acknowledging the commonalities between inquests and public inquiries, and providing a practical approach to each. The book also covers the field of parliamentary inquiries.

Cornerstone on Inquests and Inquiries

In this collection of short stories, Loretta Phillips offers a rare glimpse into life behind the walls of a correctional facility. Drawing from nearly three decades as a correctional officer, she recounts real events and day-to-day encounters with both officers and inmates. Each story captures the challenges, unpredictability, and humanity found within the jail setting, from routine interactions to unforgettable moments, including an escape that shook Loretta and as well as the institution. Honest, thought provoking, and at times surprising, these stories reveal the complexities of a world most people never see.
