Judge And The Crime Burden, John Barker Waite
Judge And The Crime Burden, John Barker Waite
Michigan Law Review
One does not happily charge the judiciary with responsibility for the country's burden of crime, but the responsibility does in fact exist. Judges, though they may not encourage crime, interfere with its prevention in various ways. They deliberately restrict police efficiency in the discovery of criminals. They exempt from punishment many criminals who are discovered and whose guilt is evident. More seriously still, they so warp and alter the public's attitude toward crime and criminals as gravely to weaken the country's most effective crime preventive.

Acting on information that defendants were engaged in the "numbers racket" in violation of the Michigan gambling laws, police officers picked up three of the defendants in an automobile, took them to the police station, and proceeded to the home of their accomplice, Abbey Clay. On being admitted to the residence, the officers placed Abbey Clay under arrest and, despite her objections, promptly searched the L-shaped room in which they were standing when the arrest was made. Although the officers did not have a search warrant, they looked through defendant's pocketbook, magazine rack, and a cardboard box which was in …

Michigan Law Review
A Florida state attorney was charged with violation of the Federal Civil Rights Statute for failure to apply for release of a Negro prisoner held nineteen months without charge. The prisoner had been held on request of the state attorney for further prosecution or use as a witness after a verdict had been directed in the prisoner's favor in a prior murder trial.

No duty existed on the part of the Florida state attorney to make application for …

Two Views On The Federal Narcotics Law Problem: I - Suggestion To Facilitate Apprehension And Conviction Of Narcotic Law Violators, Sumner Canary
Cleveland State Law Review
There are three principal aspects to the enforcement of narcotic laws. They are: (1) the apprehension of the criminal; (2) the prosecution of the offender; and (3) the sentencing of a convicted offender. The United States Attorney is concerned primarily with the prosecution of cases which are prepared by other agencies and presented to him. For the most part, the prosecution of narcotic cases is relatively simple because there is little sympathy on the part of any juror for criminals of this type. Most narcotics come from foreign countries and come into the United States at seaports. Today most narcotics …
