I start with the proposition …

Citizen And Officer Perceptions Of Community Policing In Ghana: Policing Of, By, And For The People, Or Just To The People?, Angela West Crews, Gordon A. Crews

Criminal Justice Faculty Research

This presentation presents initial results of an evaluation of citizen and officer perceptions of policing in Ghana. The Ghana Police Service (GPS) is attempting to transition from a para-militaristic philosophy to a more community-centered approach, developing a domestic violence unit in the past decade and, more recently, a community policing unit. Community policing philosophies, however, face unique challenges in Ghanaian society, such as a deep-rooted (and historically well-founded) mistrust of the police, and a culture with a well-established and trusted “traditional” system wherein matters are settled within communities and impacted by religion, spirituality, and mysticism. This project used official reported …

Cunningham V. California, Christopher P. Raab

Duke Journal of Constitutional Law & Public Policy Sidebar

In Cunningham v. California, the United States Supreme Court voted 6-3 to invalidate California's determinate sentencing law ("DSL") as violative of the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments. The Court held that, notwithstanding the California Supreme Court's determination to the contrary, the DSL conflicted with prior Supreme Court precedent "by placing sentence-elevating factfinding within the judge's province," thereby "violat[ing] a defendant's right to trial by jury safeguarded by the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments."
