Junk Evidence: A Call To Scrutinize Historical Cell Site Location Evidence, Victoria Saxe
Junk Evidence: A Call To Scrutinize Historical Cell Site Location Evidence, Victoria Saxe
The University of New Hampshire Law Review
Historical cell site location information (CSLI) has been offered as objective, scientific location evidence in criminal trials, but is far less precise than the claims it is used to support. Not only is there no way to pinpoint a cellphone’s precise geographic location from historical CSLI, but there are also no known validation or error rates for the methodologies used to collect and analyze this data. A 2019 telecommunications scandal in Denmark revealed gross inadequacies in the cellphone data and software used by law enforcement to analyze this type of evidence. The scandal sent shockwaves through the country’s legal community …

Federal Court Adjudication Of State Prisoner Claims For Post-Conviction Dna Testing: A Bifurcated Approach, Dylan Ruga
The University of New Hampshire Law Review
[Excerpt] “Undoubtedly, there are innocent people in prison. Moreover, it is probable that the wrongly convicted, if given a chance to conduct DNA testing on evidence used against them at trial, could establish their innocence. […]
Part II of this Comment will examine the reasoning behind recent circuit court decisions concerning prisoners’ rights to post-conviction genetic testing. I will explain that a bifurcated approach is the appropriate paradigm for reviewing these claims and demonstrate why three of the four circuit courts erred in their analyses. This part also will review the Supreme Court decisions cited by the circuit courts and …

The Separation Of Facts And Values, Arthur Kantrowitz
The Separation Of Facts And Values, Arthur Kantrowitz
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Kantrowitz maintains that much modern pessimism derives from failure to separate what is from what ought to be and urges that scientific conflicts be resolved as value neutrally as possible.
Coping With Phantom Risks In The Courts, Peter W. Huber
Coping With Phantom Risks In The Courts, Peter W. Huber
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Dr. Huber describes "phantom" risks as those tending to hover indefinitely, never to crystallize. He argues that legal procedures should optimally lead' to closure and eliminate unwarranted fears.

Which Scientist Do You Believe - Process Alternatives In Technological Controversies, Thomas G. Field Jr.
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Beyond introducing these papers, Professor Field argues that those designing processes for tasks originally contemplated by the Science Court proposal should closely consider, e.g., intervening experience with alternative dispute resolution.
Procedural Choices In Regulatory Science, Sheila Jasanoff
Procedural Choices In Regulatory Science, Sheila Jasanoff
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
This paper compares four approaches to using science in regulatory decision making - one very similar to the Science Court proposal. Professor Jasanoff argues generally that that proposal would be less useful than procedures more sensitive to the distinctive characteristics of regulatory science.

The Risk Of Reliance On Perceived Risk, Frank B. Cross
The Risk Of Reliance On Perceived Risk, Frank B. Cross
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Professor Cross's comment is closely related to the debate between Thompson and Valverde. Using examples that do not commonly appear in the "Risk" literature, he argues that: Giving weight to perceived Risk may seem liberal insofar as it gives more say to the "little guy," but giving perceived Risk too much weight could have distinctly illiberal social consequences.
