Rape As A Badge Of Slavery: The Legal History Of, And Remedies For, Prosecutorial Race-Of-Victim Charging Disparities, Jeffrey J. Pokorak

Nevada Law Journal

This article explores the continuing gendered racism in rape prosecutions: the undervaluation of all rape offenses against Black women and the concomitant overvaluation of rape crimes against White women, particularly when committed by a Black man. In this article I review the legal and extra-legal factors that have historically evidenced the gendered racism in rape prosecutions. I also explore the prosecutorial methods that contribute to maintaining these racial disparities. Finally, I propose remedial actions for prosecutors, legislatures, and courts.

For most of this nation's history, raping a Black woman was simply not a crime. First, laws prevented the prosecution of …

Executive-Branch Regulation Of Criminal Defense Counsel, Darryl K. Brown

ExpressO

The dominant story of American political process and criminal law is one of democratic dysfunction. Criminal law is a distinctive issue for legislatures and democratic politics generally. Legislators respond to strong majoritarian preferences that make votes against crime creation—or votes to repeal antiquated crimes—politically implausible. Thus criminal law is “one-way ratchet”: it expands but does not contract. On this account, America’s excessive criminal codes are products of structural failures in political process and democratic institutions.

Yet this story fails to account for much of American criminal law policy and practice. As this article documents in the first systematic study of …

Criminal Law Beyond The State: Popular Trials On The Frontier, Andrea Mcdowell

ExpressO

Before the civil war, “lynching” signified all forms of group-inflicted punishments, including vigilantism and mob killings. By this definition, lynchings happen in every country. Only in America, however, was lynching widespread and socially accepted. Scholars say this shows that the American commitment to due process often succumbed to “vigilante values,” that is, the desire for speedy, certain and severe penalties. They contend that vigilante values triumphed on the frontier, where courts were weak and vigilance committees strong. This article demonstrates that this view must be substantially qualified because due process was of great concern to Americans on the frontier, especially …

Domestic Violence Physical And Emotional In The Male Gay Community, Lee A. Rhodes

Regis University Student Publications (comprehensive collection)

Domestic violence partner abuse both physical and emotional occurs in male same sex relationships at the same rate as in heterosexual relationships. The National Coalition of Anti-Violence programs conducted a 10-year study in 10 United States cities, which documented violence at a rate between 25-33% in same sex relationships. A 1991 study found that 46% of the women responding had experienced two or more incidents of physical violence in their relationships (Coleman, 1991). The Survivor Project in Portland, Oregon, is currently conducting a study of gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender people regarding domestic violence. Domestic violence can begin as emotional …

The Crimmigration Crisis: Immigrants, Crime, & Sovereign Power, Juliet P. Stumpf

ExpressO

This article provides a fresh theoretical perspective on the most important development in immigration law today: the convergence of immigration and criminal law. Although the connection between immigration and criminal law, or “crimmigration law,” is now the subject of national debate, scholarship in this area is in a fledgling state. This article begins to fill that void. It proposes a unifying theory – membership theory – for why these two areas of law recently have become so connected, and why that convergence is troubling. Membership theory restricts individual rights and privileges to those who are members of a social contract …

Impotence Of Being Earnest: Status Of The United Nations Standard Minimum Rules For The Treatment Of Prisoners In Europe And The United States, Sara A. Rodriguez

ExpressO

The Standard Minimum Rules for the Treatment of Prisoners were approved with the most earnest of good intentions at the First United Nations Crime Congress in 1955, in an attempt to establish “what is generally accepted as being good principle and practice in the treatment of prisoners and the management of institutions.” In spite of their noble purpose, implementation of these rules has been somewhat of a disappointment. Europe has adopted the Standard Minimum Rules wholesale. The United States, by contrast, has declined to adopt a set of standards patterned after the Standard Minimum Rules, relying instead on pre-existing correctional …
