No Rational Basis: The Pragmatic Case For Marijuana Law Reform, Eric D. Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
No Rational Basis: The Pragmatic Case For Marijuana Law Reform, Eric D. Blumenson, Eva Nilsen
Faculty Scholarship
This article presents a critique of marijuana prohibition and suggests some alternative regulatory approaches that would be more productive and consonant with justice. Part I relies on a forty-year empirical record to demonstrate that (1) reliance on a law enforcement approach has aggravated rather than mitigated the risks involved with marijuana use, and (2) criminalization, which results in the arrest of more than 700, 000 Americans annually for possession of any amount of marijuana, is an inhumane and destructive response to an act that almost 100 million Americans have committed. Part II assesses the relative merits of several alternative reform …

Sentence Reduction As A Remedy For Prosecutorial Misconduct, Sonja B. Starr
Sentence Reduction As A Remedy For Prosecutorial Misconduct, Sonja B. Starr
Articles
Current remedies for prosecutorial misconduct, such as reversal of conviction or dismissal of charges, are rarely granted by courts and thus do not deter prosecutors effectively. Further, such all-or-nothing remedial schemes are often problematic from corrective and expressive perspectives, especially when misconduct has not affected the trial verdict. When granted, these remedies produce windfalls to guilty defendants and provoke public resentment, undermining their expressive value in condemning misconduct. To avoid these windfalls, courts refuse to grant any remedy at all, either refusing to recognize violations or deeming them harmless. This often leaves significant non-conviction-related harms unremedied and egregious prosecutorial misconduct …

What's Law Got To Do With It?: The Bosnia V. Serbia Decision's Impact On Reconciliation, Sheri P. Rosenberg
Articles
During the twentieth century a particular ideology inspired specific efforts to utilize the power of the law to redress episodes of mass atrocity-in particular genocide. The idea has been that accountability and reparations are necessary for moving beyond a past marred with crimes of genocide and crimes against humanity. Trials are often claimed to aid this process on the grounds that they create an irrefutable historic record, punish the perpetrators for the sake of justice and deterrence, and promote peace and reconciliation. This Article interrogates the stated goals of accountability, in particular the goal of reconciliation, against the impact, within …

Part II briefly describes why sex offenders present law enforcement with unique problems in prevention and deterrence. Part III details the history of civil commitment legislation. Part IV examines Supreme Court of the United States jurisprudence regarding the constitutionality of sex offender civil commitment statutes. Part V examines the Virginia Sexually Violent Predator Act. Part VI briefly considers current violent sexual …

Improving The Reliability Of Criminal Trials Through Rules That Encourage Defendants To Testify, Jeffrey Bellin
Improving The Reliability Of Criminal Trials Through Rules That Encourage Defendants To Testify, Jeffrey Bellin
Vanderbilt Law School Faculty Publications
Reflecting a traditional bias against defendants' trial testimony, the modern American criminal justice system, which now recognizes a constitutional right to testify at trial, unabashedly encourages defendants to waive that right and remain silent. As a result, a large percentage of criminal defendants decline to testify, forcing juries to decide the question of the defendant's guilt without ever hearing from the person most knowledgeable on the subject. This Article contends that the inflated percentage of silent defendants in the American criminal trial system is a needless, self-inflected wound, neither required by the Constitution nor beneficial to the search for truth. …

A Mystery Of Motherhood: The Legal Consequences Of Insufficient Research On Postpartum Illness, Lindsey C. Perry
A Mystery Of Motherhood: The Legal Consequences Of Insufficient Research On Postpartum Illness, Lindsey C. Perry
Georgia Law Review
Postpartum illness is a real and serious affliction, suffered by many mothers throughout the country. For decades, courts have struggled with the issue of how postpartum illness fits into the current framework for legal insanity. Recent publicity of the Andrea Yates trial and her subsequent acquittal brought postpartum psychosis to the attention of the American public. This Note explores the background of postpartum psychosis and its treatment in U.S. courts. It discusses the possibilities for addressing postpartum psychosis in criminal proceedings and proposes that further research and understanding are necessary to provide justice for female defendants afflicted with postpartum psychosis. …
Decentralizing The Fight Against Human Trafficking In The United States: The Need For Greater Involvement In Fighting Human Trafficking By State Agencies And Local Non-Governmental Organizations, Shashi Irani Kara
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice
The note argues that while the federal government has made significant strides in combating human trafficking through legislation like the Trafficking Victims Protection Act (TVPA), these efforts are insufficient due to the decentralized nature of the crime. It emphasizes the necessity for greater involvement from state agencies and local non-governmental organizations (NGOs) to effectively address the diverse and localized manifestations of trafficking.

Beyond Protective Orders: Interdisciplinary Domestic Violence Clinics Facilitate Social Change, Sara R. Benson
Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights & Social Justice

By fostering collaboration among law students, social workers, psychologists, and community organizations, such clinics address the multifaceted needs of survivors while training future lawyers to approach legal issues with a broader societal perspective. The article highlights the potential of these clinics to drive social progress by amplifying the voices of survivors and influencing legal and community responses …

Indecent Standards: The Case Of U.S. Versus Weldon Angelos, Eva Nilsen
Faculty Scholarship
In today's highly punitive culture, perhaps Weldon Angelos' fifty-five-year sentence does not seem unusual. He's a 25-year-old man who was convicted in December 2003 of selling marijuana, possessing firearms while drug dealing, and money laundering. 3 The facts proven at trial are that on three occasions in June and July, 2002, Angelos sold eight one-ounce bags of marijuana for $350 each to a government informant. 4 The purchaser testified that a firearm was visible during two of these drug sales.5 Police seized another gun from Angelos' home five months later pursuant to a warrant.6 At no time was …
