Description | New federal laws recognizing the civil rights implications of genderbased crimes represent an important development in effort to eliminate violence against women and other bias crimes generally. In enacting VAWA Civil Rights Remedy, Congress charted a compromise under which it required some circumstantial evidence of gender bias as a prerequisite to federal bias crime treatment. An analysis of cases of domestic violence and sexual assault, as well as an analysis of other bias crime cases, reveals the circumstantial evidence of the bias that animates violent crimes committed against women just as it does in other types of bias crime ceses. |
