Descripción Soft cover. Condición: Good. 1st Edition. Light general wear to covers. Spine not creased. Tanning to edges of page-block and page margins. Text clean. Binding good. 187pp This is a reverse detective story of sorts based on several years of extensive research into the rape and murder of a teenage girl at a beach party on the east coast of Australia in 1989. Criminologist Dr Kerry Carrington explores many unanswered questions about the case and particularly why the police failed to charge a number of boys with many serious matters relating to the crime despite having an abundance of compelling witnesses and forensic evidence available to them.There is no narrative closure to this disturbing book, no Hollywood ending, no justice and just lots of challenging questions. By asking these questions the author raises some profoundly worrying issues about the exercise of police discretion in criminal investigations, about the inability of our legal system to deal adequately with the concept of moral and collective responsibility, about the source of sexual danger and risk in our society, and about the popular indulgence of adolescent rituals involving a degree of sexual intimidation. Size: 155mm x 235mm. Book. Nº de ref. del artículo: 027955
