It turns out the patron was really looking for a particular article, written by Angela Browne and published in Law & Society Review sometime in 1989. I found it for her by looking the title up in my library catalog. Once I determined which databases aggregated it (at Columbia there are several:

Of the three that promised coverage from 1989 I selected JSTOR, which I then searched for [angela browne]. I then sorted the results from oldest to newest and identified
"Exploring the Effect of Resource Availability and the Likelihood of Female-Perpetrated Homicides," Angela Browne and Kirk R. Williams. Law & Society Review, Vol. 23, No. 1 (1989), pp. 75-94
as the article, downloaded it in pdf, and sent it to the patron. If anyone else wants it, let me know.
