Dna Is Different:Implications Of The Public Perception Ofdna Evidence On Police Interrogation Methods, Christine D. Salmon Jan 2008

Dna Is Different:Implications Of The Public Perception Ofdna Evidence On Police Interrogation Methods, Christine D. Salmon

Richmond Public Interest Law Review

These reform proposals have been met with vehement criticism, most of which stem from a concern that any attempt to prohibit or regulate deceptive interrogation methods would decrease the number of confessions and convictions produced by the criminal justice system. With these concerns in mind, this article proposes a different, more moderate reform: a per se ban on the falsification of DNA evidence during police interrogations. This proposal differs from those described above in three important ways. First, the prohibition on fabricating DNA evidence does not require a change in the voluntariness test used to ascertain the admissibility of a …

Beyond The Davis Dictum: Reforming Nontestimonial Identification Evidence Rules And Statutes, Jennifer M. Dilalla Jan 2008

Beyond The Davis Dictum: Reforming Nontestimonial Identification Evidence Rules And Statutes, Jennifer M. Dilalla

University of Colorado Law Review

In the 1970s, Colorado and five other states built on Justice Brennan's famous dictum in Davis v. Mississippi to create "nontestimonial identification evidence" statutes and rules of criminal procedure. These statutes and rules enable police to gather physical evidence such as fingerprints, hair samples, and bodily fluids from individuals reasonably suspected of having committed a felony. While the states followed the Davis dictum in requiring a court order for this evidencegathering, they also followed the dictum's suggestion that nontestimonial identification procedures might be constitutionally acceptable even in the absence of probable cause to arrest. Thus, although they provide the states …

China Reexamined: The Worst Offender Or A Strong Contender?, Yang Wang Jan 2008

China Reexamined: The Worst Offender Or A Strong Contender?, Yang Wang

Michigan Law Review

These are the questions that Professor Randall Peerenboom sets out to answer from an American legal scholar's perspective in China Modernizes: Threat to the West or Model for the Rest. Peerenboom advances three main arguments in China Modernizes. First, to more accurately assess China's performance in its quest for modernization, one must "plac[e] China within a broader comparative context" (p. 10). Through a careful analysis of empirical data, Peerenboom observes that China outperforms many other countries at a similar income level on almost all key indicators of well-being and human rights, with the sole exception of civil and political …
