No-Knock Warrants: Unlawfully Legitimate, Isabel Pergande

Mahurin Honors College Capstone Experience/Thesis Projects

On March 13, 2020, Breonna Taylor was fatally shot when officers of the Louisville Metro Police Department (LMPD) executed a search warrant at her apartment. Breonna Taylor’s case brought national attention to no-knock warrants (NKWs), which allow police to enter private residences unannounced. It is estimated that 20,000-80,000 NKWs are executed by American police each year. This thesis explores the development of NKWs as a common, yet controversial, police tactic. The increase in NKWs is largely attributed to the federal government’s War on Drugs, beginning with Richard Nixon’s 1968 presidential campaign. However, the Supreme Court laid the foundation for NKWs …

The Incompatibility Of Artificial Intelligence And Citizens United, Michael R. Siebecker

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

In Citizens United v. FEC, the Supreme Court granted corporations essentially the same political speech rights as human beings. But does the growing prevalence of artificial intelligence (“AI”) in directing the content and dissemination of political communications call into question the jurisprudential soundness of such a commitment? Would continuing to construe the corporation as a constitutional rights bearer make much sense if AI entities could wholly own and operate business entities without any human oversight? Those questions seem particularly important, because in the new era of AI, the nature and practices of the modern corporation are quickly evolving. The magnitude …

Does Administrative Burden Deter Young People? Evidence From Summer Jobs Programs, Syon Bhanot, S. Heller

Economics Faculty Works

Administrative burden reduces the effectiveness of public social programs by deterring take up among adults, but we know little about the role these burdens play in public programs for young people. This paper uses empirical evidence to assess how different barriers shape adolescents’ take-up of summer jobs programs. In a Philadelphia experiment, we find that reminder emails increased application completion by 1.8 percentage points (12.3 percent), with bigger effects from emphasizing short-term monetary gains. In a non-experimental analysis of Philadelphia and Chicago programs, we show that without individualized support during enrollment, disconnected youth are less likely to participate when offered …

A Brown Buffalo’S Observations On Color(Blindness), Legal History, And Racial Justice In The Rocky Mountain West, Tom I. Romero

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

This essay is a series of three observations about interrogating and complicating the meaning of color for all of us who call the Rocky Mountain West home. Published as part of the University of Utah Law Review’s annual symposium asking legal academics and law practitioners to 'tell our stories', this essay is designed to highlight the importance of racial consciousness in the legal geography of the Rocky Mountain West. These observations are divided into three reflections. In the first, I explore what has long been the defining feature of race relations in the Rocky Mountain West—the persistent tension between the …

The Color Of Local Government: Observations Of A Brown Buffalo On Racial Impact Statements In The Movement For Water Justice, Tom I. Romero

Sturm College of Law: Faculty Scholarship

This article is rooted larger racial justice conversations that became amplified in 2020 as the United States, and indeed the world, was literally and figuratively on fire as the interconnected pandemics of COVID-19, racial violence, and climate change-induced wildfires raged. These interconnected disasters helped reveal the ways that racial and ethnic minoritized communities disproportionately bore the brunt of economic dislocation, deadly health outcomes, and physical dislocation. For many local and state government entities, particularly those in the water sector, it also catalyzed a response to be more diverse, equitable, inclusive, and indeed color-conscious in service of racial and social equity …

The Criminal Justice System And The Lgbtq Community: An Anti-Queer Regime, Steven Peck

Themis: Research Journal of Justice Studies and Forensic Science

The LGBTQ community in the US, while experiencing great strides in social equality, continues to suffer disproportionately in the criminal justice system. Historical precedents of criminalizing the LGBTQ community are rife within the criminal justice system; the establishment of anti-sodomy laws, belief of inherent criminality, and a heteronormative perspective have all fostered a greater anti-queer regime. The criminalization and incarceration of the LGBTQ community remain steadfastly in place, with little to no reprieve. Establishing a new narrative in the criminalization and imprisonment of the LGBTQ community may assist in efforts to achieve real change within the criminal justice system. Moving …

Racial Inequality: An Economic And Philosophical Approach, Isabel Nieves

Theses & ETDs

I provide evidence that there is racial inequality in the criminal justice system, and that our criminal justice system is flawed. I look at the effects of the incarceration rates among different races, and how this has a domino effect into other aspects of the Black community. I look at how this affects mental health, segregation, and employment in Black communities. I look at why our criminal justice system is flawed through a John Rawlisan approach through his principles of justice, and Charles Mills' criticism of John Rawls, as well as Tommie Shelby. I look at policies in which we …

Covid-19 And The Carceral System: An Examination Of The Increasing Structural Inequities In Access To Healthcare In Sarasota And Manatee County Jails, Danielle Robbins

Theses & ETDs

The purpose of this thesis is to examine the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on access to healthcare in Southwest Florida jails. The ongoing public health crisis has underscored the importance of examining these constructions in a cautious yet expeditious manner. While a considerable amount of research seeks to understand COVID-19 within prisons, there is limited information that contextualizes the novel virus within jails. This thesis aims to augment existing literature by taking a closer look at public health and disease prevention in jails. This project draws on data accumulated from nine ethnographic interviews dated from December of 2021 through …

In The Misery Business: Female Serial Killers As Seen In U.S Popular Media, Natalie Roldan

Theses & ETDs

This thesis identifies stereotypes and gender issues that are all-encompassing in serial killers, more specifically female serial killers in the United States. The subsequent representation in the media through connections between psychology, criminology, and popular culture show how many female criminals and serial killers have been changed to fit the narrative of the professionals in said fields. Using the theories of Cesare Lombroso and Sigmund Freud as time markers for the period that they were written in. Using articles from feminist journals, psychological journals, and historical journals based around criminology, along with film reviews and basic background information, this thesis …

Complications With Historical Production: American History, Bias, And Latine Representation, Gabriela Ott

Theses & ETDs

This thesis aims to investigate how American history professors’ attitudes relate to the texts assigned to their students and how these readings portray Latines. Past research indicates that historical production of history narratives have been impacted by national identity, linguistic choices, instructors’ perspectives, and prejudice. These key ideas in historical narrative creation can have psychological ramifications for Latine students, such as stereotype threat or transmission, self-esteem alteration, personal disengagement, and lowered sense of belonging. The study examined six American history professors’ syllabi and survey results to see how Latines were represented in assigned readings and if there was a connection …

I evaluated and analyzed the poetic works of Audre Lorde, Sonia Sanchez, Nikki Giovanni, and Ntozake Shange. Publications by and about these four female poets who were active during the Black Arts Movement were evaluated and analyzed to identify the poets’ intentions, the audiences they hoped to reach and the aspects of society they sought to change.

The Impact Of Conventional And Expanded Adverse Childhood Experiences (Aces) On Juvenile Offending Outcomes, Jesma C. Revering

Theses and Graduate Projects

Previous research has established a correlation between conventional adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) and juvenile offending. However, the possible moderating effect expanded ACEs has on this relationship remains unclear. Using the 2019 Minnesota Student Survey (MSS), the study included 278 youth from juvenile correctional facilities in Minnesota to examine the impact of conventional ACEs on juvenile offending, the impact of expanded ACEs on juvenile offending, and the impact of conventional ACEs on juvenile offending, moderated by expanded ACEs. Findings revealed a statistically significant positive effect of conventional ACEs on juvenile offending. Expanded ACEs had a significant negative relationship with juvenile offending. …

Integration Of Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (Sane’S) Care Program, Erin B. Mehta

Theses and Graduate Projects

Sexual assault is a public health issue, especially for individuals experiencing homelessness, violence, and victimization. Barriers to post-sexual assault health care must be addressed to ensure individuals experiencing homelessness receive effective and adequate care. Traditionally found in Emergency Departments, Sexual Assault Nurse Examiners (SANEs) offer patient-centered, comprehensive health care to sexual assault survivors. To reduce barriers for individuals experiencing homelessness, SANEs must be accessible where health care services are utilized. Guided by Jean Watson’s Theory of Human Caring and trauma-informed principles, this project aims to embed a SANE program into a homeless-specific Midwest Health Care Center. The SANE program will …
