Here's a few from Professor Ketland's blog.

"Like previous researchers on sentencing in state and federal courts, we found that female offenders were treated more leniently than male offenders. In these three U.S. District Courts, female offenders received sentences that were approximately ten months shorter than the sentences imposed on similarly situated male offenders. Females also were significantly more likely than males to receive a downward departure for providing substantial assistance, and those who did received bigger sentence discounts than their male counterparts"

" women receive less severe sentences than men across a variety of methodological conditions." (Bontrager et al 2013) https://heinonline.org/HOL/LandingPage?handle=hein.journals/jgrj16&div=16&id=&page=

… females were treated more leniently by the court system … (Goulette et al 2015)

… a gender gap favoring females at every stage of the judicial system that persists throughout the sample period. Females were less likely to be found guilty (9.4% – 20.3%) and, conditional on guilt, less likely to receive the harshest punishment available at the time (i.e. death penalty, transportation, or prison depending on the offense and year). (Bindler & Hjalmarsson 2017)

… women get prison sentences 15 days shorter than men on average. (Philippe 2017)

… female patients received lower punishments compared to male patients and were more often considered to be diminished accountable for their offenses due to a mental illness. (de Vogel & de Spa 2018)

Starr was also in there but you already have that so I left it out. But Starr is very well done.

"Reverse"?

If you mean women get off easier, for ALL crimes, yes.

You probably know the very comprehensive one by Sonia Starr:
