Pedophilia, Exhibitionism, And Voyeurism: Legal Problems In The Deviant Society, E. C. B., Jr.

Georgia Law Review

Statutes concerning sexual offenses have long been part of the criminal law. Deviants, psychopaths, sodopaths, and perverts are some of the terms applied to offenders. These terms are dependent upon and conditioned by cultural norms,' which describe certain forms of behavior as deviant, and by legal norms which outline the nature of each offense.2 Because of the myriad sexual acts considered unlawful in the United States,3 Dr. Kinsey has concluded that ninety-five percent of the American male population are technically sex criminals.4 It is indeed ironic that sex laws, which are violated by such a large majority of the population, …

Jury Consideration Of Parole, Fernand N. Dutile

Journal Articles

Under our system of criminal justice, a jury faces two basic decisions: the determination of guilt and, in many cases, the selection of an appropriate penalty for the convicted. In both instances the jurors' impressions of the parole system could be crucial. For example, the jury's notion—correct or incorrect—that the defendant will be eligible for parole very quickly if sentenced to prison may cause it to compromise on the issue of guilt. In cases where the jury has discretion in setting the penalty, this notion may seduce it into selecting the death penalty over life imprisonment.

There are additional problems …

"Uncontrollable" Actions And The Eighth Amendment: Implications Of Powell V. Texas, Kent Greenawalt

Faculty Scholarship

No questions of criminal justice are more fundamental than the bases for imposing criminal punishment, yet the Federal Constitution says nothing explicit about them. It is, therefore, understandable that the increasing limitations imposed by constitutional interpretation upon procedures for ascertaining criminal guilt have not been accompanied by similar limits upon principles of criminal responsibility. That the difference in treatment is understandable does not, of course, necessarily mean it has been justified.

When the Court struck down a law punishing addiction in Robinson v. California in 1962, it was still unclear whether it was willing to become significantly implicated in developing …

Appellate Review Of Legal But Excessive Sentences: A Comparative Study, Gerhard O.W. Mueller, Fre Le Poole

Vanderbilt Law Review

Classical penology was conceived in France in the eighteenth century, and then eclipsed all over the world in the nineteenth, when Lombroso conjured up the picture of the born criminal. It was finally laid to rest in the United States in the twentieth century. Its basic tenet had been simple enough: the legislature in its infinite wisdom would seek and find the appropriate punishment for every crime.This can be accomplished if a crime is defined narrowly enough, perhaps by the creation of subcategories of that crime, so as to encompass all potential perpetrators who will each incur the same amount …

Disposition Of The Irresponsible: Protection Following Commitment, Travis H. Lewin

Michigan Law Review

Each year more of our fellow citizens are involuntarily committed to a mental institution of one sort or another than are incarcerated for the commission of a crime. To those committed, the walls and barred windows of the hospital, as well as the treatment and mode of living, are probably not significantly different from those of a prison. This is particularly the case with those confined for treatment by court order or by some special statutory procedure following acquittal of a crime on grounds of insanity. Yet these mentally ill, even after perpetrating what would otherwise have been a criminal …

Criminal Law - Arrests - Use Of Deadly Force, David J. Brightbill

Duquesne Law Review

The Pennsylvania Supreme Court established a rule that a private person may use deadly force to effectuate an arrest only when certain enumerated felonies have been committed, and approved the rule that an arresting party will always be criminally responsible if deadly force is used against anyone but an escaping felon.
