The Rich Get Richer and the Poor Get Prison by Jeffrey Reiman

The basic premise of this text is that the Criminal Justice system is biased against the poor from start to finish - from the definition of what constitutes a crime through the process of arrest, trial, and sentencing.
Jeffrey Reiman is William Fraser McDowell professor of philosophy at American University and the author of Critical Moral Liberalism (Rowman & Littlefield, 1997), The Rich Get Richer and the Poor Get Prison, Justice and Modern Moral Philosophy, and In Defense of Political Philosophy. Louis P. Pojman is professor of philosophy at the United States Military Academy. He has been a Fulbright Fellow at the University of Copenhagen and is an active environmentalist. He is the author of several books, including The Logic of Subjectivity, Religious Belief and the Will; Ethics: Discovering Right and Wrong, and Life and Death: Grappling with the Moral Dilemmas of Our Time.
