A new study published by the Philadelphia-based A.J. Drexel Autism Institute reveals noteworthy findings about the intersection between the autistic community and the criminal justice system. Kaitlin Koffer Miller took the lead on the state-wide survey, and explains how a variety of factors - from gender to caretakers - affect the way people with autism are treated by law enforcement.
