THE CASE FOR MERCY IN POLICING AND CORRECTIONS |
102 Texas Law Review 1409 (June, 2024) |
One tends to think of mercy as something that judges and chief executives occasionally dole out to convicted offenders. This picture is seriously incomplete. Many others are in a position to be merciful--from police on the street to corrections officers in a prison. In short, anyone who has power to inflict something disagreeable on another person... |

THE CONSEQUENCES AND CONSTITUTIONALITY OF TRAINING POLICE TO BLAME VICTIMS |

A surprising type of moral minimization is explicit victim-blaming, which includes blaming the victim by endorsing negative stereotypes on the basis of gender, race, religion, or sexual... |

But the gap also presents a challenge to those lawyers who commit to an internal perspective about the law, accepting that law... |

In the 1970s, the Supreme Court prohibited the then-common practice of incarcerating criminal defendants because they lacked the money to immediately pay off their fines and fees. The Court suggested that states could instead put defendants on installment payment plans. As this Article shows, this suggestion came against a backdrop of impressive... |
