Observations On The Serial Killer Phenomenon: An Examination Of Selected Behaviors Of The Interstate Offender Contrasted With The Intrastate Offender, Eric W. Witzig Jan 1995

Observations On The Serial Killer Phenomenon: An Examination Of Selected Behaviors Of The Interstate Offender Contrasted With The Intrastate Offender, Eric W. Witzig

Theses and Dissertations

The purpose of this work was to compare serial homicides committed by interstate and intrastate offenders and to determine differences in behavior between them. Knowledge of such differences would enable the trained homicide detective to structure his investigation according to the killer's inferred range of action.

This study used homicide data collected by the Violent Criminal Apprehension Program (VICAP), of the National Center for the Analysis of Violent Crime (NCAVC). VICAP's data was voluntarily submitted by investigators working at the state, local, and federal levels. The VICAP database had information on more than 804 cases of homicides committed by 241 …


The Mandatory Disclosure System And Foreign Firms: Securities Regulation In The Apec Countries., Joel Seligman Jan 1995

The Mandatory Disclosure System And Foreign Firms: Securities Regulation In The Apec Countries., Joel Seligman

Scholarship@WashULaw

This Article examines the disclosure requirements for foreign and domestic securities imposed by the Securities and Exchange Commission, paying special attention to the balance between investor protection and the free flow of capital internationally. As the world economy becomes increasingly global, foreign issuers and their governments, who in the past have had to meet more stringent requirements to issue their securities in the United States, are pushing for less restrictive treatment. This Article describes the progress that has been made towards this end.


The Obsolescence Of Wall Street: A Contextual Approach To The Evolving Structure Of Federal Securities Regulation, Joel Seligman Jan 1995

The Obsolescence Of Wall Street: A Contextual Approach To The Evolving Structure Of Federal Securities Regulation, Joel Seligman

Scholarship@WashULaw

As a matter of analytical style, this article illustrates a contextualist approach. For a considerable period of time, the dominant analytical style in corporate and securities .law has been a variant of economic, or law and economics, analysis. The virtue of this type of analysis is that it focuses on what its authors deem to be crucial variables and reaches conclusions derived from the core of a specific legal problem. The defect of this type of analysis is that so much is assumed or often assumed away.


The Sec's Unfinished Soft Information Revolution, Joel Seligman Jan 1995

The Sec's Unfinished Soft Information Revolution, Joel Seligman

Scholarship@WashULaw

The transformation of the Securities and Exchange Commission's mandatory disclosure system represents the single most important development in the agency's greater than sixty years' experience administering disclosure requirements. Since the early 1970s, the SEC has shifted its emphasis from historical or "hard" information to its current emphasis on forward-looking information. This transformation can be termed the "soft information revolution" in the SEC's mandatory disclosure system. In terms of investor protection, the SEC's emphasis on forward-looking information has significantly improved the quality of what is mandatorily disclosed.


Legal Enforcement Of Morality, Kent Greenawalt Jan 1995

Legal Enforcement Of Morality, Kent Greenawalt

Faculty Scholarship

In modern Western political and legal thought, the subject of legal enforcement of morality is narrower than the literal coverage of those terms. That is because much legal enforcement of morality is uncontroversial and rarely discussed. Disagreement arises only when the law enforces aspects of morality that do not involve protecting others from fairly direct harms. More precisely, people raise questions about legal requirements (1) to perform acts that benefit others, (2) to refrain from acts that cause indirect harms to others, (3) to refrain from acts that cause harm to themselves, ( 4) to refrain from acts that offend …
