Both studies collected insights and experiences with dementia-related behavior increasing the risk of contact or as the focus of a criminal charge, arrest, or incarceration. We applied the Framework Method to code, chart, and identify overlapping themes between studies. We compared overlapping themes to the Sequential Intercept Model (SIM)&amp;lt; &amp;gt;for applicability to people living with dementia.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Thirteen caregivers and fifteen legal practitioners completed interviews across two studies. We observed (1) caregiver interventions and use of pre-crisis resources as key to people living with dementia avoiding criminal involvement&amp;lt; &amp;gt;(2) caregivers may not perceive symptoms and behaviors as posing a criminal risk. The SIM lacks pre-crisis resources to reduce risks for criminal-system interaction for people living with dementia.
