Native offenders' perceptions of the criminal justice system / Brad Morse and Linda Lock. : J23-3/12-1988E-PDF

"The primary purpose underlying this study was our desire to accord a voice directly to Native peoples in conflict with the law so that they could express their opinions about and personal experiences with the sentencing process. Although the tragically high numbers of Aboriginal men and women in our federal and provincial correctional facilities have been well known and documented for many years, little has been done beyond describing the magnitude of the tragedy. Sporadic demands for change are issued and governments respond by expressing their sorrow over the situation. All the while, the voices of the Aboriginal inmates are largely muted. We hoped that this report helps in some small way to assist in disseminating the views of Native offenders for themselves. The opinions and concerns that are expressed in this study are conveyed anonymously and provided a basis for recommendations for future change"--Abstract, p. v.
