Hurt, Perfectly: Artist’S Statement On The Documentary Film, Sam René Garcia Apr 2005

Hurt, Perfectly: Artist’S Statement On The Documentary Film, Sam René Garcia

McNair Scholars Research Journal

“Hurt, Perfectly” is a documentary video providing an historical and feminist analysis of the attitudes, histories and laws regarding domestic violence in the state of Idaho. Through a series of interviews and imagery, the video explores domestic violence, presenting it as a responsibility of every community member and simultaneously revealing how every citizen in the community is a victim of domestic violence. The video explores the case of Angie Leon in the context of two Idaho counties—Ada and Canyon. By juxtaposing the neighboring regions, the video attempts to debunk socioeconomic and racial associations and stereotypes commonly attached to domestic violence. …

Follow The Leader?: Japan Should Formally Abolish The Execution Of The Mentally Retarded In The Wake Of Atkins V. Virginia, Simon H. Fisherow Apr 2005

Follow The Leader?: Japan Should Formally Abolish The Execution Of The Mentally Retarded In The Wake Of Atkins V. Virginia, Simon H. Fisherow

Washington International Law Journal

Japan is the only industrialized democracy in the world to not explicitly proscribe the execution of the mentally retarded. In the face of opposition from both international bodies and non-governmental organizations, Japan persists in engaging in a practice condemned by both international law and the laws of the vast majority of the world's nations. Even the United States, a nation that remains staunchly pro-death penalty, abandoned its practice of executing the mentally retarded in 2002 due to the emergence of a national consensus against the practice. This Comment examines Japan's use of the death penalty and its imposition on mentally …


Examining The Repercussions Of Crawford: The Uncertain Future Of Hearsay Evidence In Missouri, Jon W. Jordan Apr 2005

Examining The Repercussions Of Crawford: The Uncertain Future Of Hearsay Evidence In Missouri, Jon W. Jordan

Missouri Law Review

While making a course correction in Confrontation Clause jurisprudence, the United States Supreme Court leaves much uncertainty in its wake. Some hearsay evidence previously admissible under a "firmly rooted hearsay exception" or because it possessed "particularized guarantees of trustworthiness" will no longer be allowed under the Court's new standard. However, the Court's failure to define its key terms leaves practitioners in desparate need of further clarification. This Note is intended to assist Missouri practitioners in understanding the Supreme court's new Confrontation Clause standard as stated in Crawford v. Washington and provide practical guidance for its application. The Note identifies Missouri's …

Pre-Colonial Criminal Justice In West Africa Eurocentric Thought Versus Africentric Evidence, David Dalgleish Apr 2005

Pre-Colonial Criminal Justice In West Africa Eurocentric Thought Versus Africentric Evidence, David Dalgleish

African Journal of Criminology and Justice Studies

Through the process of Eurocentric pro-colonialist propaganda people have been, and continue to be, led to assume that the European colonialists brought criminal justice and law and order to Africa. This article challenges those assumptions by using the work of scholars of African history to highlight the existence of criminal justice systems in Africa, in particular pre-colonial West Africa. In the context of a modern society dedicated to removing the tenets of discrimination on the basis of ethnicity, this work will hopefully inspire other criminologists to continue to address this under-researched area of criminology, and reassess how historical criminal justice …

Political Trials In Domestic And International Law, Eric A. Posner Apr 2005

Political Trials In Domestic And International Law, Eric A. Posner

Public Law and Legal Theory Working Papers

Due process protections and other constitutional restrictions normally ensure that citizens cannot be tried and punished for political dissent, but these same restrictions interfere with criminal convictions of terrorists and others who pose a non-immediate but real threat to public safety. To counter these threats, governments may use various subterfuges to avoid constitutional protections, often with the complicity of judges, but when they do so, they risk losing the confidence of the public, which may believe that the government targets legitimate political opponents. This paper argues that that the amount of process enjoyed by defendants in criminal trials reflects a …

The Failure Of The Federal Sentencing System: A Structural Analysis, Frank O. Bowman Iii Apr 2005

The Failure Of The Federal Sentencing System: A Structural Analysis, Frank O. Bowman Iii

Faculty Publications

For most of the last decade, I numbered myself among the supporters of the Federal Sentencing Guidelines and wrote extensively in their defense, while chronicling their defects. In the past year, I have reluctantly concluded that the federal sentencing guidelines system has failed. This Article explains the Guidelines' failure. The Sentencing Reform Act was intended to distribute the power to make sentencing policy and rules and to control individual sentencing outcomes among a range of national and local actors - the U.S. Sentencing Commission, Congress, the federal appellate courts, and the Department of Justice at the national level, and district …

Shifting The Focus From The Myth Of "The Vanishing Trial" To Complex Conflict Management Systems, Or I Learned Almost Everything I Need To Know About Conflict Resolution From Marc Galanter, John M. Lande Apr 2005

Shifting The Focus From The Myth Of "The Vanishing Trial" To Complex Conflict Management Systems, Or I Learned Almost Everything I Need To Know About Conflict Resolution From Marc Galanter, John M. Lande

Faculty Publications

To say that The Vanishing Trial is a myth is not to suggest that the facts or analysis in Professor Marc Galanter's seminal report on the vanishing trial are fictional or inaccurate. Indeed, he marshals a massive amount of data to show that the number of trials and the trial rates have been declining for the past four decades, particularly in the federal courts. The report documents an apparent paradox: the proportion of cases going to trial has dropped sharply during the past forty years despite substantial increases in many other legal indicators including the number of lawyers, the number …
