Rapid Dna Testing, Robert M. Sanger
Robert M. Sanger
In 2010, the FBI began the process of encouraging the development of Rapid DNA testing. Rapid DNA testing involves a fully automated process of developing a “short tandem repeat” (STR) profile from a reference sample. The process consists of automated extraction, amplification, separation, detection and allele calling without human intervention. In other words, it is a quick, hands free method of obtaining a DNA profile.

To Furman Or Not To Furman, Robert M. Sanger
To Furman Or Not To Furman, Robert M. Sanger
Robert M. Sanger
In capital litigation, the United States Supreme Court in Furman v. Georgia and following cases required capital punishment systems to have a form of "narrowing" so that the death penalty was imposed only on the worst of the worst. The death penalty states have failed to successfully implement this concept. As a result, "narrowing" is currently raised in all capital cases by competent defense counsel both at trial and in post conviction litigation. It is raised in addition to all other issues, including issues related to the questions of whether exclusion from the death penalty should be expanded and whether …

Close Test Scores And Epigenetics In Atkins Cases, Robert M. Sanger
Robert M. Sanger
In the Atkins case, the United States Supreme Court held that it was unconstitutional to execute a person who was intellectually disabled (mentally retarded). An IQ score is evidence that can be considered in making the determination of whether a particular individual is intellectually disabled. Certain prosecution experts seek to add points to the scores of African Americans as a form of "ethnic adjustment" making those individuals more susceptible to being put to death. This article examines the molecular biology issues that may have an effect on whether such points should properly be added.

Chinese Encounters, Robert M. Sanger
Chinese Encounters, Robert M. Sanger
Robert M. Sanger
A Review of the book Chinese Encounters by Inge Morath and Arthur Miller. Miller inquired about cultural and legal issues in China as one of the first American intellectuals to be given relatively free access to China since the Mao regime. Inge Morath provided remarkable photographs. The significance was the juxtaposition of Miller's adherence to the Western concept of the Rule of Law with the communitarian values of Chinese culture.
