  • THE IMPACT of STATE V. SWINTON on the AUTHENTICATION of DIGITAL IMAGES∗
    File: Guthrie.362.GALLEY(f).doc Created on: 9/21/2007 3:34:00 PM Last Printed: 9/26/2007 9:54:00 AM THE SWINTON SIX: THE IMPACT OF STATE v. SWINTON ON THE AUTHENTICATION OF DIGITAL IMAGES∗ Catherine Guthrie∗∗ Brittan Mitchell∗∗∗ I. INTRODUCTION “[T]he machine does not isolate man from the great problems of nature but plunges him more deeply into them.”1 Nowhere is this more apparent than in the struggle between rules of law and scientific and technological advances. Our court system’s response to this challenge is scrutiny and adaptability, two traits evidenced by the ebb and flow of requirements for authentication of digital images. This Article examines the evolution of authentication re- quirements for digital images, with particular emphasis on the impact of State v. Swinton.2 Part II of this Article provides an overview of digital images as well as the general rationale for their authentication. Part III reviews past statutory and common law rules for establishing the authenticity of such evidence. Part IV summarizes Swinton, a 2004 case from Connecticut which represents a major development in this area of law. Part V ap- plies the holding from Swinton to a new type of digital evidence, virtual autopsies, in a theoretical context. The Article concludes in Part VI. ∗ © 2007, Catherine Guthrie and Brittan Mitchell. All rights reserved. ∗∗ Catherine Guthrie is a graduate of Stetson University College of Law and an ac- tive member of The Florida Bar. She is currently working for the National Clearinghouse for Science, Technology and the Law as a Research Attorney.

    THE STILETTA NEWSLETTER VOLUME 21, ISSUE 2 MAY 2020 Greetings, Siblings Be careful what you wish for. One of my top priorities when I agreed to become president of SinC NorCal was to introduce virtual, shared events. I had been using video meeting technology for close to twenty years. With a widely dispersed membership, it seemed like a great way to increase participation and our membership. However, our organization has had a strong tradition of in-person meetings. The intimacy and sense of community we receive from gathering together is one of our strong suits. As I was mulling how best to introduce technology into CONTENTS our meetings without discouraging attending in person, Page 1: President’s Letter suddenly it was all taken out of my hands!

  • Sob Sisters: the Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture
    SOB SISTERS: THE IMAGE OF THE FEMALE JOURNALIST IN POPULAR CULTURE By Joe Saltzman Director, Image of the Journalist in Popular Culture (IJPC) Joe Saltzman 2003 The Image of the Female Journalist in Popular Culture revolves around a dichotomy never quite resolved. The female journalist faces an ongoing dilemma: How to incorporate the masculine traits of journalism essential for success – being aggressive, self-reliant, curious, tough, ambitious, cynical, cocky, unsympathetic – while still being the woman society would like her to be – compassionate, caring, loving, maternal, sympathetic. Female reporters and editors in fiction have fought to overcome this central contradiction throughout the 20th century and are still fighting the battle today. Not much early fiction featured newswomen. Before 1880, there were few newspaperwomen and only about five novels written about them.1 Some real-life newswomen were well known – Margaret Fuller, Nelly Bly (Elizabeth Cochrane), Annie Laurie (Winifred Sweet or Winifred Black), Jennie June (Jane Cunningham Croly) – but most female journalists were not permitted to write on important topics. Front-page assignments, politics, finance and sports were not usually given to women. Top newsroom positions were for men only. Novels and short stories of Victorian America offered the prejudices of the day: Newspaper work, like most work outside the home, was for men only. Women were supposed to marry, have children and stay home. To become a journalist, women had to have a good excuse – perhaps a dead husband and starving children. Those who did write articles from home kept it to themselves. Few admitted they wrote for a living. Women who tried to have both marriage and a career flirted with disaster.2 The professional woman of the period was usually educated, single, and middle or upper class.
