Phyllis J. Newton, Jill Glazer, Kevin Blackwell Gender, Individuality and the Federal Sentencing Guidelines 1995 Federal Sentencing Reporter 862007 (12/1/1995) Historically, gender has played an important role in determining sanctions for criminal and delinquent conduct. The direction of that role, i.e., mitigation or aggravation, has varied. Often for status offenses, such as running away from home, young female defendants received stiffer sanctions than did their male counterparts.
