Though not always called a white-paper, all the of documents linked below are examples of the kinds of policy documents I have in mind for the final class paper:
- New ACS issue brief on felon disenfranchisement
- New ACS paper on racial disparities in the death penalty
- New ACS issue brief making the case against juve LWOP
- Two new reports from The Sentencing Project about state prison reductions
- New report from The Sentencing Project on the drug war's racial dynamics
- New HRW report assailing juve LWOP in California
- LDF report documents disparities in juve LWOP in Mississippi
- New report on juve LWOP in Massachusetts
One response to “Lots and lots of examples of lots and lots of different kinds of sentencing “white papers””
Without reading a word, I can tell you the conclusion of every one of those biased left wing propaganda garbage papers. Set free the client of the lawyer, the criminal. They will not say, but the intent is to raise the crime rate and to increase lawyer employment.
None will advocate reducing the incarceration of innocent defendants by improving the appallingly low accuracy of the criminal prosecution by ending all self-dealt immunities of the incompetents on the bench and in the prosecution. Torts would be far more effective in deterring these careless incompetents than policy arguments about shorter sentences. The ending of immunity is for the good of the lawyer. If tors is a substitute for violence, then immunity is good moral and intellectual justification for self-help.
