The number of women globally who have committed violent crimes is very small. Women are far more likely to be victims than perpetrators. However, when women have been convicted of murder or manslaughter, in a significant number of cases the victim is a male partner or male family member and there is a history of domestic violence.The findings of this survey shows that with few exceptions, criminal justice systems are failing these women by ignoring their trauma and realities/dynamics of domestic violence aDIREITO PENITENCIÁRIO aVIOLÊNCIA CONTRA A MULHER aVIOLÊNCIA SOCIAL aPRISÃO aJUSTIÇA CRIMINAL aREABILITAÇÃO aREINTEGRAÇÃO aMULHER aPRISÃO FEMININA aNAÇÕES UNIDAS aPENAL REFORM INTERNATIONAL j343.8PEN
