Bad Cops Or Bad Training? How Police Officer Training Impacts Use Of Force Incidents., Kendra Bengtson

There has been growing tension between the police and public for allegations of excessive use of force, racism, and insufficient knowledge of mental illness.

This project involved a comprehensive literature review on training, use of force, racial bias and mental illness. Additionally, seven in-depth interviews were conducted with individuals involved in the policing community, and four hours of use of force training and forty hours of de-escalation training were observed. This project found …

Is Having Too Many Aggravating Factors The Same As Having None At All?: A Comment On The Hidalgo Cert. Petition, Chad Flanders
All Faculty Scholarship
While the Court does not dispute that at first blush the defendant's argument appears logical, it is disturbed by the prospect of how one determines the point at which the number of aggravating circumstances causes the death penalty statute to be generally unconstitutional. Is the Court to engage in some mathematical calculation as to who might be covered by the statute and who is not; and if so, what would be reasonable and logical factors to include in the formula? Can the Court arbitrarily declare that fifty aggravating circumstances is too many but forty-nine is permissible? Even assuming one could …

Punishment, Liberalism, And Public Reason, Chad Flanders
All Faculty Scholarship
The article argues for a conception of the justification of punishment that is compatible with a modern, politically liberal regime. Section I deals with what some have thought are the obvious social interests society has in punishing criminals, and tries to develop those possible interests somewhat sympathetically. Section II suggests that many of those reasons are not good ones if punishment is regarded (as it should be) from the perspective of political philosophy. Social responses to bad things happening to people cannot be grounded in controversial metaphysical views about what is good for people or what people deserve, but many …

The Dodd-Frank Solution To Predatory Lending, Marko Stojkovic
Public Interest Law Reporter
This Article is part two of a two-part series exploring the dangers of predatory lending and how Dodd-Frank and the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau ("CFPB") have solved predatory lending and ended the possibility of another subprime debacle. Part one covered how predatory lending harmed minority, low-income, and immigrant communities, and was a main cause of the 2008 economic collapse. Part two will show how the CFPB was built to stop and prevent predatory lending and another subprime debacle. The enactment and implementation of Dodd-Frank and the CFPB have improved the mortgage market. However, politicians and lawmakers, notably President Donald Trump …

The American Dream After War: Veterans' Accessibility To A Higher Education Through The Post-9/11 Gi Bill, Maha Sadek
Public Interest Law Reporter
The Post-9/11 Veterans' Educational Assistance Act of 2008 ("Post-9/11 GI Bill") went into-effect in 2009. Since 2013, about 800,000 service men and women have taken advantage of their Post-9/11 GI Bill benefits, and 80% of GI Bill spending is attributed to the Post-9/11 GI Bill. Though educational benefits are provided, at varying rates to veterans who served after September 10, 2001, about 26% of veterans aged 25 or older have a bachelor's degree compared to 28% of the total population. There are several factors that contribute to veteran's attainability of a degree including adjusting to life outside of the military …
