Two researchers at the American Correctional Association Convention in Louisville challenged Freda Adler's Sisters in Crime theory. Ruth Glick and Laurel Kans argued that crime rise among women is overstated, noting 1960 to 1972 figures show women accounted for 4.2 percent of increased arrests. They cited bigger police forces and better reporting as influences.
