The Innocent Defendant's Dilemma: An Innovative Empirical Study Of Plea Bargaining's Innocence Problem, Lucian E. Dervan, Vanessa A. Edkins Ph.D. 2013 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

The Innocent Defendant's Dilemma: An Innovative Empirical Study Of Plea Bargaining's Innocence Problem, Lucian E. Dervan, Vanessa A. Edkins Ph.D.

Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology

In this Article, Professors Dervan and Edkins discuss a recent psychological study they completed regarding plea bargaining and innocence. The study, involving dozens of college students and taking place over several months, revealed that more than half of the innocent participants were willing to falsely admit guilt in return for a benefit. These research findings bring significant new insights to the long-standing debate regarding the extent of plea bargaining’s innocence problem. The Article also discusses the history of bargained justice and examines the constitutional implications of the study’s results on plea bargaining, an institution the Supreme Court reluctantly approved of …

Predisposition And Positivism: The Forgotten Foundations Of The Entrapment Doctrine, T. Ward Frampton 2013 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Predisposition And Positivism: The Forgotten Foundations Of The Entrapment Doctrine, T. Ward Frampton

Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology

For the past eighty years, the entrapment doctrine has provided a legal defense for defendants facing federal prosecution, but only for those lacking criminal “predisposition” prior to the government’s inducement. The peculiar contours of this doctrine have generated significant academic debate, yet this scholarship has failed to explain why the entrapment doctrine developed as it did in the first instance. This Article addresses this gap by examining competing views on criminality and punishment in America during the doctrine’s emergence, highlighting the significant, though largely forgotten, impact of positivist criminology on the early twentieth-century legal imagination. Though positivism has long since …


Vulnerability And Just Desert: A Theory Of Sentencing And Mental Illness, E. Lea Johnston 2013 Northwestern Pritzker School of Law

Vulnerability And Just Desert: A Theory Of Sentencing And Mental Illness, E. Lea Johnston

Journal of Criminal Law and Criminology

This Article analyzes risks of serious harms posed to prisoners with major mental disorders and investigates their import for sentencing under a just deserts analysis. Drawing upon social science research, the Article first establishes that offenders with serious mental illnesses are more likely than non-ill offenders to suffer physical and sexual assaults, endure housing in solitary confinement, and experience psycho logical deterioration during their carceral terms. The Article then explores the significance of this differential impact for sentencing within a retributive framework. It first suggests a particular expressive understanding of punishment, capacious enough to encompass foreseeable, substantial risks of serious …
