abstract="The elevated risk of suicide in prison and after release is a well-recognised and serious problem. Despite this, evidence concerning community-based offenders' suicide risk is sparse. We conducted a population-based nested case-control study of all people in a community justice pathway in England and Wales. Our data show 13% of general population suicides were in community justice pathways before death. Suicide risks were highest among individuals receiving police cautions, and those having recent, or impending prosecution for sexual offences. <br><br>FINDINGS have implications for the training and practice of clinicians identifying and assessing suicidality, and offering support to those at elevated risk.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
