Ep. 42 Crime in Rural Places with Walter DeKeseredy

This week we talk to Walter DeKeseredy, a professor in West Virginia University's Department of Sociology and Anthropology, about violence against women and rural criminology. Turns out living on a farm outside of the big city may not be as safe as some may think! Walter talks us through what exactly rural criminology is and the violence that women in rural settings experience. Walter even wrote a book about the topic! 

Walter's work has been published in journals such as Violence Against Women, Violence and Gender, and International Journal of Rural Criminology. You can find Walter on Twitter @dekeseredy.
