With an explicit focus on the rules and principles of criminal trial procedure, Roberts and Zuckerman''s Criminal Evidence develops a coherent account of evidence law which is doctrinally detailed, securely grounded in a normative theoretical framework, and sensitive to the institutional and socio-legal factors shaping criminal litigation in practice. The book is designed to be accessible to the beginner, informative to the criminal court judge or legal practitioner, and thought-provoking to the advanced student and scholar: a textbook and monograph rolled into one.

Criminal law discourse has become, and will continue to become, more international and comparative, and in this sense global: the long-standing parochialism of criminal law scholarship and doctrine is giving way to a broad exploration of the foundations of modern criminal law.

Probation and parole are two vital components of any criminal justice system.  Practitioners working in both are responsible for the assessment and supervision of  those members of society who have committed criminal offences and are subject to  court-ordered penal sanction. Those working in probation and parole must bring a  range of knowledge and skills to bear in their daily work: championing community  safety and justice, promoting offender reintegration, and seeking to reduce offending  and the harm it causes. All of that practice is in turn underpinned by law.

What does it mean to accuse someone of being an offender? Entryways to Criminal Justice analyzes the thresholds that distinguish law-abiding individuals from those who may be criminalized. Contributors to the volume adopt social, historical, cultural, and political perspectives to explore the accusatory process that place persons in contact with the law. Emphasizing the gateways to criminal justice, truth-telling, and overcriminalization, the authors provide important insights into often overlooked practices that admit persons to criminal justice. It is essential reading for scholars, students, and policy makers in the fields of socio-legal studies, sociology, criminology, law and society, and post\/colonial studies.  Contributors: Dale A.

Schultz, Hamline University * Choice *\u003cbr\u003eIn their terrific if misleadingly titled new book, Not Guilty: Are the Acquitted Innocent?, Daniel Givelber and Amy Farrell ask a practically unanswerable question: how many defendants who are acquitted at trial are actually innocent?... it is immensely valuable for the close look it provides at what we know, and can know, about the correctness of jury verdicts. -- Darryl K. Brown * Criminal Law and Criminal Justice Books *\u003cbr\u003eThis interdisciplinary scholarship between law and a social science is sorely needed in the United States and I hope Givelber and Farrell have begun a trend that is so well established in other countries such as Germany and England. The authors are to be commended for writing a book that is thought provoking and vitally important in understand an ignored area of our justice system. -- Robert Costello * Social and Legal Studies *\u003cbr\u003eAn acquittal is the most powerful and final of legal judgments. It may not be reviewed let alone reversed. It is also, perhaps, the least respected. After a criminal defendant has been convicted, prosecutors and judges often resist efforts to reconsider the verdict, even in the face of strong new evidence of innocence, because \u0026amp; the jury has spoken. When a defendant is acquitted they are as likely say \u0026amp; that doesnt mean hes innocent.In Not Guilty Daniel Givelber and Amy Farrell explore this anomaly.Givelber and Farrell make a persuasive case that most jury acquittals are based on evidence not emotion, and that acquittals should be taken to mean what they say: that the defendant is Not Guilty. -- Samuel Gross,co-author of A Modern Approach to Evidence: Text, Problems, Transcripts, and Cases\u003cbr\u003eDaniel Givelber and Amy Farrell have written a brilliant book that masterfully debunks the conventional wisdom that those who are charged with crimes in our criminal justice system, even when they are acquitted at trial, are almost certainly guilty. Drawing on extensive empirical research, this book systematically analyzes the sources of judge-jury disagreement about leniency and acquittals. This book challenges us to rethink our assumptions about the meaning of an acquittal in a system that asymmetrically treats \u0026amp; guilty verdicts as factual but \u0026amp; not guilty verdicts are merely procedural. It also exposes how false assumptions about the probable guilt of the acquitted contribute to miscarriages of justice. This is a book that anyone interested in the accuracy and fairness of the criminal justice system should read. It is a data-driven tour de force. -- Richard A. Leo,author of Police Interrogation and American Justice\u003cbr\u003eThis book is powerful, strong, and convincing. It is written at a level that undergraduates can understand and it avoids arcane academic language so that the book can be read and understood by practitioners, academics, and the general public...The book is quite informative, but it is also succinct and can be read quickly and easily.

Illness or Deviance? highlights the confusion and contradictions about labeling addiction. Murphy's fieldwork in a drug court and an outpatient drug treatment facility yields fascinating insights, such as how courts and treatment centers both enforce the disease label of addiction, yet their management tactics overlap treatment with therapeutic punishment. The addict label is a result not just of using drugs, but also of being a part of the drug lifestyle, by selling drugs.

Nored and Caitlin Carey * CLCJ Books *\u003cbr\u003eInvestigatory questioning by law enforcement is understood to involve an unequal balance of power with an intrinsic opportunity for abuse. For this reason, Miranda warning rights and other constitutional protections exist in the United States. Nevertheless, Feld (law, Univ. of Minnesota; Juvenile Justice Administration in a Nutshell) warns in his latest book that these legal protections have failed miserably, particularly when juveniles are involved. Feld cautions that juvenile interrogations are ripe for inquisitorial abuse owing, first, to juveniles' incompetence to exercise their Miranda rights effectively; second, to police officers' skill in using psychological tools to gain a waiver; and third, to judicial inability to supervise interrogations as they happen. His research reveals that juvenile interrogation tactics and procedures have resulted in various injustices including the proliferation of false confessions. Feld also offers solutions, including the simple one of recording all custodial interrogations for possible review. Verdict: Recommended.

As Michael White and Hank Fradella show in Stop and Frisk, the first authoritative history and analysis of this tactic, there is a disconnect between our everyday understanding and the historical and legal foundations for this policing strategy. First ruled constitutional in 1968, stop and frisk would go on to become a central tactic of modern day policing, particularly by the New York City Police Department.

Christian Rückert untersucht, welche Vorgaben und Leitlinien sich dabei für die Erhebung, Verwertung und Beweiswürdigung von digitalen Daten im Strafverfahren aus dem Verfassungs-, Europa- und Strafprozessrecht ergeben.","brand":"JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49416738144599,"sku":"9783161622168","price":139.14,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783161622168.jpg?v=1730530663"},{"product_id":"radikalisierung-und-extremismus-aufgabenfelder-und-herausforderungen-der-nachrichtendienste-9783161625930","title":"Radikalisierung und Extremismus: Aufgabenfelder","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eDen deutschen Nachrichtendiensten ist gesetzlich ein wichtiger Teil staatlicher Sicherheitsgewährleistung überantwortet: Für politische Entscheidungsträger fungieren sie als Frühwarnsysteme für innere und äußere Gefährdungen der Bundesrepublik Deutschland und im Wirkungsverbund mit Polizeibehörden und Staatsanwaltschaften tragen sie zur Verhinderung und Aufklärung von Straftaten bei. „Sicherheit“ hat sich hierbei zu einem zentralen gesellschaftlichen Wertebegriff entwickelt, an den Sicherheitsbedürfnisse einzelner Bürgerinnen und Bürger anknüpfen. Zugleich sind die Nachrichtendienste verpflichtet, individuelle Freiheitsverbürgungen des Grundgesetzes nicht zu verletzen. Den Rechtsgrundlagen nachrichtendienstlicher Tätigkeit kommt die Aufgabe zu, den Schutz grundrechtlicher Freiheiten und die Gewährleistung öffentlicher Sicherheit miteinander in Einklang zu bringen.","brand":"JCB Mohr (Paul Siebeck)","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49416744993111,"sku":"9783161625930","price":72.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/1739\/5799\/files\/9783161625930.jpg?v=1730530676"},{"product_id":"die-praxis-des-strafverfahrens-9783170396661","title":"Die PRAXIS Des Strafverfahrens","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kohlhammer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49416801124695,"sku":"9783170396661","price":67.2,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"strafprozessrecht-9783170438095","title":"Strafprozessrecht","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Kohlhammer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49416824914263,"sku":"9783170438095","price":24.65,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]},{"product_id":"schuld-und-strafmass-modelle-der-bestimmung-rechtlicher-schuld-im-strafrecht-und-die-methodik-der-strafmassfindung-im-rahmen-der-sanktionsentscheidung-9783428184125","title":"Schuld Und Strafmass: Modelle Der Bestimmung","description":"\u003cb\u003eBook Synopsis\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Duncker \u0026 Humblot","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49418130587991,"sku":"9783428184125","price":95.92,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}]}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/collections\/criminal-procedure.oembed?page=4","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
