Apropos of TSA, I wrote here that "it’s self-evident that one’s chances of going to prison for child molestation increase dramatically when one spends every day groping strangers."In Live-Free-or-Die New Hampshire, the chances that a stranger-groping TSA goon will go to prison have been ratcheted up a tiny bit: the state's legislature has before it a bill that would make it a sex assault, subject to registration,

Colorado District Attorney Carol Chambers, who AmJured in ethics, has done Montgomery County's Brett Ligon (edit: and Harris County's Pat Lykos) one better: she "is offering financial incentives for felony prosecutors who meet their goals for conviction rates at trial." "It is hard to find performance standards by which to measure trial attorneys," Chambers explains to the Post. "This is the standard I think best meets the

Here are a few ideas I've had for subjects that our criminal-defense skunkworks could inquire into:Facial emotion recognition as a tool in trial (see Unmasking the Face: A Guide to Recognizing Emotions From Facial Expressions);Turning the tables: criminal-interrogation techniques in cross examination (see Criminal Interrogation And Confessions);Applying the lessons of aikido to trial (see Aikido and the Dynamic Sphere: An Illustrated Introduction);Mitigation experts in non-capital cases.These are

My vision for our criminal-defense skunkworks is that each of us will choose a discipline that interests him or her, review the literature, attend classes or seminars, and try applying it in trial, all the while collaborating with the rest of us (who will have chosen different disciplines to investigate).You know about the Trial Lawyers College, where Gerry Spence teaches psychodrama to lawyers. That's a great example

I'm looking for a few good criminal-defense lawyers to advance the state of the art in criminal-defense trial lawyering. Together we will seek disciplines that have not hitherto been widely applied to the trial of criminal cases for the defense; investigate and experiment with these disciplines; share among ourselves when and how they are useful and not useful; and document our studies for posterity. This gig is

You’ve seen this already, I’m sure:[flv:https://ivi3.com/public_html/bennettandbennett/blog/video/school_bully-hi.flv 480 368]It’s video of a 10th-form (as I understand it, the equivalent of 10th grade in the U.S.) kid in Australia being picked on by a vicious little 7th-form bully, while some fan of bullying shoots video. The little punk gets in several shots at the bigger kid, eliciting no visible reaction until the bigger kid gets fed up and hits

If you want to be taken seriously, please give your agents some guidance on what is not a professional-looking business card. Whenever a potential client comes to me with something like this … …my first thought is, "he's being scammed by someone pretending to be an FBI agent."

University of Houston law professor Jordan Paust, who reviewed the bilateral treaty between the U.S. and Nigeria this week, said it includes a long list of offenses for which a suspect is subject to extradition, including manslaughter. But the treaty does not specifically include the offense of reckless injury to a child or child endangerment, Paust said, which he predicted could jeopardize Tata's extradition. "This would be
