Winner of the 2019 Outstanding Book Award - ASC DCCSJ​ Trapped in
a Vice explores the consequences of a juvenile justice system that
is aimed at promoting change in the lives of young people, yet
ultimately relies upon tools and strategies that enmesh them in a
system that they struggle to move beyond. The system, rather than
the crimes themselves, is the vice. Trapped in a Vice explores the
lives of the young people and adults in the criminal justice
system, revealing the ways that they struggle to manage the
expectations of that system; these stories from the ground level of
the justice system demonstrate the complex exchange of policy and
practice. Â
