This comprehensive book delves into a socio-legal exploration of the profound influence of the media on the development and implementation of criminal justice policy. Often assumed but seldom scrutinized, the media's impact on public opinion and policymaking becomes particularly evident in the aftermath of high-profile crimes. The book employs a case study approach, examining in detail the media coverage of the rape and murder of Jill Meagher in Melbourne, Australia, as well as other notable cases such as James Bulger, Sarah Payne, Stephen Lawrence, and Michael Brown. By employing a socio-legal framework, the book sheds light on the intricate ways in which the media's powerful and emotive narratives shape public perception, influence legal decisions, and ultimately shape the implementation of law.
In conclusion, this book offers a thought-provoking and insightful examination of the media's role in criminal justice policy. It provides valuable insights for scholars, students, policymakers, and media professionals alike, challenging us to consider the broader implications of media coverage on our society and legal system. Through its comprehensive analysis and thoughtful recommendations, this book contributes to the ongoing debate about the role of the media in shaping public opinion and driving social change.
