Description

Criminal Procedures: The Police: Cases, Statutes, and Executive Materials, Sixth Edition, is a comprehensive treatment of criminal procedure that depicts the enormous variety within criminal justice systems by examining the procedures and policies of both federal and state systems and looking at sources of law and doctrine from multiple institutions. This “real-world” text offers students and instructors a deliberate focus on the realities of the high-volume circumstances that surround criminal procedure. An updated selection of cases and statutes as well as expanded coverage of important areas ensures the currency and timeliness of the Sixth Edition of this highly regarded casebook. This time- and classroom-tested casebook: Surveys the constitutional, statutory, and administrative doctrines and practices that shape how the police interact with citizens and investigate crimes Examines the procedures and policies of both federal and state systems, as well as the assumptions and judgments underlying each, and how these systems interrelate and sometimes compete with one another Looks at sources of law and doctrine from multiple institutions, including U.S. Supreme Court cases, state high court cases, statutes, rules of procedure, and police and prosecutorial policies Explores the influence of politics within various institutions of law enforcement and the role of public pressure on policing and procedure with regard to terrorism, drug trafficking, domestic abuse, and the treatment of crime victims Compares U.S. practices with the criminal investigations that happen in other countries Investigates the impact of criminal procedures on law enforcers, lawyers, courts, communities, defendants, and victims through the use of interdisciplinary materials New to the Sixth Edition: Two new authors join the editorial team: Jenia I. Turner of SMU Dedman School of Law and Kay L. Levine of Emory University School of Law. With her doctoral training in Socio-Legal Studies and her balanced experience as a prosecutor and a defense attorney in state court, Professor Levine sharpens the focus of the book on the real-world operation of courtroom actors in high-volume state systems. With her background in international criminal tribunals and comparative criminal procedure, Professor Turner strengthens the comparisons between court systems in the U.S. and those around the world. As experienced and celebrated classroom teachers, both Professors Turner and Levine bring closer attention to student learning needs in every chapter of the book. More examples and discussion demonstrate the effects of new technologies on criminal procedure. A revamped Chapter 1 offers a deeper exploration of competing models of policing and useful background about policing organizations. Reorganized Chapters 2 and 7 introduce students to the shifting analytical frameworks that the U.S. Supreme Court now employs to evaluate searches in the context of technological devices that store and collect large amounts of data. Chapter 6 relies on current newsworthy debates about police use of force to explore the alternatives and supplements to the exclusionary rule remedy. Professors and students will benefit from: Materials that support class discussion, including criminal justice actors beyond the Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court: the vision is “street level federalism” Materials that portray the range of current practices in criminal justice rather than a rushed historical narrative about doctrinal trends A Supporting website that offers exemplar documents from legal practice, recent news with relevance for criminal procedure, and brief video lectures to introduce each major unit Emphasis on high-volume practical issues in criminal procedure instead of intricate but rarely-encountered questions Intuitive organization (particularly in the search and seizure units) that makes it easy to see connections among different areas of the law The purchase of this Kindle edition does not entitle you to receive access to the online e-book, practice questions from your favorite study aids, and outline tool available through CasebookConnect.
