Racializing Algorithms, Jessica M. Eaglin
Racializing Algorithms, Jessica M. Eaglin
Articles by Maurer Faculty
There is widespread recognition that algorithms in criminal law’s administration can impose negative racial and social effects. Scholars tend to offer two ways to address this concern through law—tinkering around the tools or abolishing the tools through law and policy. This Article contends that these paradigmatic interventions, though they may center racial disparities, legitimate the way race functions to structure society through the intersection of technology and law. In adopting a theoretical lens centered on racism and the law, it reveals deeply embedded social assumptions about race that propel algorithms as criminal legal reform in response to mass incarceration. It …

Policing Hatred: Police Bias Units And The Construction Of Hate Crime, Jeannine Bell
Policing Hatred: Police Bias Units And The Construction Of Hate Crime, Jeannine Bell
Articles by Maurer Faculty
Much of the scholarly debate about hate crime laws focuses on a discussion of their constitutionality under the First Amendment. Part of larger empirical study of police methods of investigating hate crimes, this Note attempts to shift thinking in this area beyond the existing debate over the constitutionality of hate crime legislation to a discussion of how low-level criminal justice personnel, such as the police, enforce hate crime laws. This Note argues that, since hate crimes are an area in which police have great discretion in enforcing the law, their understanding of the First Amendment and how it relates to …

Sentencing Antitrust Offenders: Reconciling Economic Theory With Legal Theory, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt
Sentencing Antitrust Offenders: Reconciling Economic Theory With Legal Theory, Kenneth G. Dau-Schmidt
Articles by Maurer Faculty
This Article evaluates two different economic models of criminal law as applied to the enforcement of antitrust laws. The author argues that economic models which propose antitrust punishment be limited to fines and then to fines that are levied against only business entities, are deficient because they account for only the general deterrent effect of punishment and include a value of criminal benefit for the offender, a value not shared by society. He presents, as an alternative, a model that accounts for benefits afforded by incarceration such as the signaling of what is a criminal offense, changes in the criminal's …

Science, Common Sense, And Criminal Law Reform, Jerome Hall
Science, Common Sense, And Criminal Law Reform, Jerome Hall
Articles by Maurer Faculty
Professor Hall advocates a reappraisal of the current trend in criminal law of substituting expert psychiatric testimony for common-sense determinations of insanity based on the long experience of the criminal-law tradition. Holding that the average layman is as competent to recognize extreme mental illness as the psychiatric expert, the author discusses the doctrine of the "irresistible impulse" and submits that the current departures from the M'Naghten rule tend to "substitute the ideology of a particular group of psychiatrists for the principle of moral responsibility." Professor Hall suggests that realistic reform cannot be achieved without considering the "moral life and its …

The M'Naghten Rules And Proposed Alternatives, Jerome Hall
Articles by Maurer Faculty
Responding to overt and implied criticism of the M'Naghten Rules for determining legal insanity to excuse criminal responsibility, Mr. Hall proposes a national seminar or study by judges of the diverse and perplexing problems they must face in deciding issues in this field. He thinks that M'Naghten needs repair rather than replacement and that a rough consensus might be attainable.
