Using Excited Utterances To Prosecute Domestic Violence In New York: The Door Opens Wide, Or Just A Crack?, Brooks Holland

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The article discusses the use of excited utterances as a hearsay exception in domestic violence prosecutions, particularly in the case of *People v. Lopez*. It highlights how this precedent allows prosecutors to use such statements without the complainant's testimony, which is crucial in cases where victims often refuse to cooperate. The author cautions against over-reliance on this exception, emphasizing the need to balance the prosecution's interests with the defendant's right to confront their accuser under the Confrontation Clause.

A Question Of Revenge: Munchausen Syndrome By Proxy And A Proposed Diminished Capacity Defense For Homicidal Mothers, E. Selene Steelman

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

The note argues that Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP) should be legally recognized as a severe mental disorder, allowing defendants to use a diminished capacity defense in cases of accidental filicide. The author critiques the legal system's inconsistent treatment of MSBP, which often focuses on the physical harm to the child while neglecting the mother's mental state. By acknowledging MSBP as a psychiatric disorder, the law could achieve more nuanced outcomes that consider both the act and the defendant's mental condition, reducing stigma and promoting fairness in criminal liability assessments.
