Prior consistent statement Evidence of a statement previously made by a witness is not made inadmissible by the hearsay rule if the statement is consistent with his testimony at the hearing and is offered in compliance with Section 791. HISTORY: Enacted Stats 1965 ch 299 § 2, operative January 1, 1967. NOTES: Law Revision Commission Comments: 1965 Under existing law, a prior statement of a witness that is consistent with his testimony at the trial is admissible under certain conditions when the credibility of the witness has been attacked. The statement is admitted, however, only to rehabilitate the witness--to support his credibility--and not as evidence of the truth of the matter stated. People v. Kynette, 15 Cal.2d 731, 753-754, 104 P.2d 794, 805-806 (1940) (overruled on other grounds in People v. Snyder, 50 Cal.2d 190, 197, 324 P.2d 1, 6 (1958)). Section 1236, however, permits a prior consistent statement of a witness to be used as substantive evidence if the statement is otherwise admissible under the rules relating to the rehabilitation of impeached witnesses.

  • Fight, Flight Or Lockdown Edited
    Fight, Flight or Lockdown: Dorn & Satterly 1 Fight, Flight or Lockdown - Teaching Students and Staff to Attack Active Shooters could Result in Decreased Casualties or Needless Deaths By Michael S. Dorn and Stephen Satterly, Jr., Safe Havens International. Since the Virginia Tech shooting in 2007, there has been considerable interest in an alternative approach to the traditional lockdown for campus shooting situations. These efforts have focused on incidents defined by the United States Department of Education and the United States Secret Service as targeted acts of violence which are also commonly referred to as active shooter situations. This interest has been driven by a variety of factors including: • Incidents where victims were trapped by an active shooter • A lack of lockable doors for many classrooms in institutions of higher learning. • The successful use of distraction techniques by law enforcement and military tactical personnel. • A desire to see if improvements can be made on established approaches. • Learning spaces in many campus buildings that do not offer suitable lockable areas for the number of students and staff normally in the area. We think that the discussion of this topic and these challenges is generally a healthy one. New approaches that involve students and staff being trained to attack active shooters have been developed and have been taught in grades ranging from kindergarten to post secondary level. There are however, concerns about these approaches that have not, thus far, been satisfactorily addressed resulting in a hot debate about these concepts. We feel that caution and further development of these concepts is prudent. Developing trend in active shooter response training The relatively new trend in the area of planning and training for active shooter response for K-20 schools has been implemented in schools.

  • "With the Intent to Inflict Such Injury": the Courts and the Legislature Create Confusion in California Penal Code Section 12022.7
    "With the Intent to Inflict Such Injury": The Courts and the Legislature Create Confusion in California Penal Code Section 12022.7 INTRODUCTION For 60 years the California criminal justice system followed an indeterminate approach to sentencing its criminals. Under this system, the judge would sentence the convicted defendant to an inde- terminate term.' When the defendant reached prison, the parole board would determine the length of that individual's stay, placing emphasis on the particular attributes of the criminal and the possi- bility of successful rehabilitation.' Operative July 1, 1977, however, the Determinate Sentencing Law repealed and replaced the indeter- minate sentencing system.' The California legislature declared that the purpose of imprison- ing convicted criminals is punishment, not rehabilitation.4 The legis- lature concluded that determinate sentencing is the most effective manner to achieve this purpose.6 Under determinate sentencing, stat- utes provide fixed terms of years for specific crimes. Felonies are divided into seven categories, the majority of which are further sub- divided into three tiers of a low, middle, and high term.6 The judge has the discretion to choose which tier is appropriate for an individual.7 1. 3 B. WITKIN & N. EPSTEIN, CALIFORNIA CRIMINAL LAW § 1446, at 1712 (2d ed. 1989). 2. Id. 3. The Determinate Sentencing Law modified many penh1 code statutes simultane- ously. See generally CAL. PENAL CODE § 1170 (West 1985 & Supp. 1991). 4. CAL. PENAL CODE § 1170(a)(1). 5. Id. The legislature determined that focusing on the seriousness of the crime committed, instead of on the ability to rehabilitate the offender, is the best way to pun- ish.

  • HUMOR in the AGE of COVID-19 LOCKDOWN: an EXPLORATIVE QUALITATIVE STUDY Patrizia Amici “Un Porto Per Noi Onlus” Association, Bergamo, Italy
    Psychiatria Danubina, 2020; Vol. 32, Suppl. 1, pp 15-20 Conference paper © Medicinska naklada - Zagreb, Croatia HUMOR IN THE AGE OF COVID-19 LOCKDOWN: AN EXPLORATIVE QUALITATIVE STUDY Patrizia Amici “Un porto per noi Onlus” Association, Bergamo, Italy SUMMARY Background: This study seeks to explore the use of humor during the period of isolation caused by lockdown measures imposed in Italy as a result of the Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Subjects and method: The study is based on a non-clinical sample. The ad hoc questionnaire measures people’s readiness to search for, publish and distribute humorous material during lockdown. It investigates the intentions behind sending content via social media (WhatsApp or similar) and the emotions experienced on receiving such content. Results: The responses have been analyzed quantitatively, and using Excel’s IF function they have been analyzed qualitatively. In the present sample of 106 Italian respondents, searching for content was less common than publishing it (yes 44.34%, no 54.72%). Positive emotions were more frequently the motivation (total 61.32%). A high percentage sent amusing content via social media or SMS (79%). Responses demonstrating a desire to lessen the situation’s negative impact or a desire for cohesion were common. Receiving material was similarly associated with positive emotions and a sense of being close to others. Conclusions: humorous material appears to have served as a means of transmitting positive emotions, distancing oneself from negative events and finding cohesion. Key words: humor – lockdown - COVID 19 * * * * * INTRODUCTION we cannot control events can be considered traumatic or critical, then it is entirely appropriate to include (the In March 2020, the World Health Organization effects of) lockdown in these categories.

(a) The People of the State of California find and declare all of the following: (1) Criminal activity has a serious impact on the citizens of California. The rights of victims of crime and their families in criminal prosecutions are a subject of grave statewide concern. (2) Victims of crime are entitled to have the criminal justice system view criminal acts as serious threats to the safety and welfare of the people of California. The enactment of comprehensive provisions and laws ensuring a bill of rights for victims of crime, including safeguards in the criminal justice system fully protecting those rights and ensuring that crime victims are treated with respect and dignity, is a matter of high public importance. California’s victims of crime are largely dependent upon the proper functioning of government, upon the criminal justice system and upon the expeditious enforcement of the rights of victims of crime described herein, in order to protect the public safety and to secure justice when the public safety has been compromised by criminal activity.

QUEER LOCKDOWN: COMING TO TERMS WITH THE ONGOING CRIMINALIZATION OF LGBTQ COMMUNITIES Ann Cammett * INTRODUCTION Activists have long engaged in a wide range of worthwhile initiatives in pursuit of social justice. However, it is less common that groups have an unambiguous mandate to develop a philosophical and strategic approach that integrates organizing across issues. In this paper, I argue that we must prioritize the concerns of low-income queer1 people who have been profoundly affected by the criminal justice system. In doing so, activist scholars can expand on a tradition of articulating a comprehensive vision of social justice that encompasses the true needs of the most disenfranchised, while at the same time broadening the larger discourse around civil and human rights.

Essay Codification and the California Mentality by LEwIS GROSSMAN* Introduction: The Pomeroy Paradox On August 8, 1878, John Norton Pomeroy, the principal instruc- tor at the newly established Hastings College of Law in San Francisco, delivered the school's inaugural address. It was the culminating mo- ment of an exhilarating decade for California's legal profession. Six years earlier, in 1872, California had moved to the forefront of American legal reform by becoming one of the first states in the nation to codify its complete body of laws. The legislature had en- acted the California Code, which included new Civil, Criminal, and Political Codes, as well as a revised Code of Civil Procedure. Com- mittees of prominent attorneys had drafted the Code, basing it largely on the work of the illustrious New York jurist, David Dudley Field.' The centerpiece of the California Code was the Civil Code, which consolidated all of the state's statutory and common-law rules gov- erning private relations (corporations, property, torts, contracts, and domestic matters) into one meticulously arranged volume.2 Only * Associate, Covington & Burling, Washington, D.C.
