“…[T]he national average sentence for men who kill their female partners is two to six years in prison. Criminal justice systems and juries do not, on average, treat the murder of women by their husbands terribly seriously. In contrast, women who kill their male partners are sentenced to an average of 15 years, three times as much as male defendants, despite the fact that many of these women killed in self-defense.”
That’s a short excert from an essay by law prof Tania Tetlow that is available in full text here. Via the Dees Diversion.
