Evidence Of Gambling Expert Witness In Prosecuting Online Gambling Offences: Malaysia’S Experience And Way Forward, Sharifah Zulia Balqish S. Agil
International Conference on Gambling & Risk Taking
Abstract:
Accessibility of online gambling surges with rife coverage of the Internet worldwide including in Malaysia. Criminal procedures to curb rampancy of online gambling are the last bastion of the society from gambling disorder hazards. However, prosecuting online gambling offences poses ginormous technical challenges to police force and prosecutors. The assistance of gambling expert witness is sine qua non in proving attributes of games as gambling. The existing Malaysia legal framework stipulates for appointment of gambling expert witness in prosecuting traditional gambling offences but absence of online equivalent. This paper seeks to examine the general law on expert witness in …

Helm's School of Government Conference
Happiness is a subjective emotion that can quickly be twisted by the depravity of humanity’s sinful nature. Human trafficking deprives an individual’s natural right to life, liberty, and their pursuit to happiness. Of the two divisions of human trafficking, sex trafficking, especially involving children, is the most despicable and most evolved. The United States and further the state of Virginia is a crucial player in combating human trafficking. While there are currently many successful tactics state governments and nonprofit groups are utilizing in order eliminate human trafficking there are further more intense strategies the Virginia State Government should implement. One …
Drug Ideologies Of The United States,

Drug Ideologies Of The United States, Macy Montgomery
Helm's School of Government Conference
The United States has been increasingly creating lenient drug policies. Seventeen states and Washington, the District of Columbia, legalized marijuana, and Oregon decriminalized certain drugs, including methamphetamine, heroin, and cocaine. The medical community has proven that drugs, including marijuana, have myriad adverse health side effects. This leads to two questions: Why does the United States government continue to create lenient drug policies, and what reasons do citizens give for legalizing drugs when the medical community has proven them harmful? The paper hypothesizes that the disadvantages of drug legalization outweigh its benefits because of the numerous harms it causes, such as …

Conviction On Interpretation, Advocate Adaptability, And The Future Of Emojis And Emoticons As Evidence, Samantha Lyons
Seattle Journal of Technology, Environmental & Innovation Law
The dawning of the digital age introduced new and unique interpretive quandaries for judges and litigators alike. These quandaries include (but are not limited to) misinterpretation of pictorial slang as used in instant messaging, new or collateral meanings invented by phrases paired with specific emoticons or emojis, and the existence of emojis alone as communicative accessories.
This Note analyzes how lawyers and judges have essential free reign to treat emojis as they see fit: a prosecutor can argue, even in good faith, that the inclusion of an emoji depicting an open flame means the sender knew the heroin he sold …

“Take The Motherless Children Off The Street”: Fetal Alcohol Syndrome And The Criminal Justice System, Michael L. Perlin, Heather Ellis Cucolo
University of Miami Law Review
Remarkably, there has been minimal academic legal literature about the interplay between fetal alcohol syndrome dis- order (“FASD”) and critical aspects of many criminal trials, including issues related to the role of experts, quality of counsel, competency to stand trial, the insanity defense, and sentencing and the death penalty. In this Article, the co-authors will first define fetal alcohol syndrome and explain its significance to the criminal justice system. We will then look at the specific role of experts in cases involving defendants with FASD and consider adequacy of counsel. Next, we will discuss the impact of FASD on the …

A New Test For The New Crime Exception,

University of South Carolina - Columbia
A New Test For The New Crime Exception, Colin Miller
Utah Law Review
The new crime exception to the Fourth Amendment exclusionary rule allows prosecutors to introduce evidence connected to new crimes committed by defendants who were illegally detained and/or questioned. Unfortunately, as illustrated in this Article, courts largely have applied this new crime exception without any analytical framework or regard for the severity of the initial police misconduct or the defendant’s response. Moreover, courts have begun applying the new crime exception to crimes such as giving a fake name in response to an un-Mirandized interrogation following a lawful arrest.
By doing so, courts have allowed the new crime exception to swallow two …

Mass E-Carceration: Electronic Monitoring As A Bail Condition, Sara Zampierin
Utah Law Review
Over the past decade, the immigration and criminal legal systems have increasingly relied on electronic monitoring as a bail condition; hundreds of thousands of people live under this monitoring on any given day. Decisionmakers purport to impose these conditions to release more individuals from detention and to maintain control over individuals they perceive to pose some risk of flight or to public safety. But the data do not show that electronic monitoring successfully mitigates these risks or that it leads to fewer individuals in detention. Electronic monitoring also comes with severe restrictions on individual liberty and leads to harmful effects …
25 Is The New 18: Extending Juvenile Jurisdiction And Closing Its Exceptions,
2023
S.J. Quinney College of Law, University of Utah
25 Is The New 18: Extending Juvenile Jurisdiction And Closing Its Exceptions, Dylan Raymond
Utah Law Review
Courts are in broad agreement that juveniles—defined as people under 18-yearsold — are less culpable than adults and thus punish them differently. Indeed, few would disagree that the adult criminal system should apply only to adults—people “fully developed and mature.” If separating adults and juveniles based on culpability is the goal, it begs a simple question: should the split happen at age 18? Some U.S. institutions imply that they believe an 18-year-old lacks the requisite maturity to assume certain responsibilities, including the House of Representatives and car rental agencies, which permit participation at 25. Looking globally, important institutions like the …

Reversal Burden Of Proof In Process Of Proving Money Laundering Cases In Indonesia, Artha Febriansyah, Eva Achjani Zulfa, Muhammad Yusuf, Desia Banjarani
Indonesia Law Review
The implementation of reversal burden of proof in money laundering cases still faces obstacles that cause suboptimal and ineffective in legal enforcement. It raises a debate regarding the existence of reversal burden of proof in the proving system, particularly the proof of the crime of money laundering. Based on this background, the problems in this research are related to the regulation and implementation of reversal burden of proof in the process of proving money laundering cases and the steps that can be taken in optimizing the application of reversal burden of proof in the process of proving money laundering cases. …

Grappling With Our Own Errors: Lessons From State V. Blake, Alicia Ochsner Utt
Washington and Lee Law Review Online
After fifty years of a failed war on drugs, many states are just now beginning to take steps toward attempting to repair a half-century of harm. By examining the response of Washington’s government at the executive and legislative levels to the Washington Supreme Court’s decision in State v. Blake, this Note identifies some key factors that must be present in the paths forward for all states in their own processes of reform. The stakeholders involved in transforming the criminal legal system must ensure that relief from prior drug-related convictions is automatic, geographically standardized, and complete. Any form of relief …

Let The Right Ones In: The Supreme Court's Changing Approach To Justiciability, Richard L. Heppner
Law Faculty Publications
The power of federal courts to act is circumscribed not only by the limits of subject matter jurisdiction, but also by various justiciability doctrines. Article III of the Constitution vests the judicial power of the United States in the Supreme Court and such inferior courts as Congress creates. That power is limited to deciding cases and controversies. It does not permit federal courts to provide advisory opinions when there is not a real dispute between the parties. Based on that constitutional limit, and related prudential concerns, the Court has developed a variety of justiciability requirements limiting which cases can be …

The Paradox Of Death Penalty Delay: A Judicial, Empirical, And Ethical Study, Zoë Gill
Senior Theses and Projects
The American death penalty has been at the center of political debates for decades. More specifically, the complexity of death penalty delay has gained significant attention from the public as well as the Supreme Court justices. Death penalty delay represents the time that transpires between when a capital crime is committed and when the execution is carried out. Today, more than half of all prisoners currently sentenced to death have been on death row for more than 18 years. This staggering statistic has ignited debate and divided the conservative justices from the liberal justices even more. This thesis will first …
