  • The Unnecessary Crime of Conspiracy
    California Law Review VOL. 61 SEPTEMBER 1973 No. 5 The Unnecessary Crime of Conspiracy Phillip E. Johnson* The literature on the subject of criminal conspiracy reflects a sort of rough consensus. Conspiracy, it is generally said, is a necessary doctrine in some respects, but also one that is overbroad and invites abuse. Conspiracy has been thought to be necessary for one or both of two reasons. First, it is said that a separate offense of conspiracy is useful to supplement the generally restrictive law of attempts. Plot- ters who are arrested before they can carry out their dangerous schemes may be convicted of conspiracy even though they did not go far enough towards completion of their criminal plan to be guilty of attempt.' Second, conspiracy is said to be a vital legal weapon in the prosecu- tion of "organized crime," however defined.' As Mr. Justice Jackson put it, "the basic conspiracy principle has some place in modem crimi- nal law, because to unite, back of a criniinal purpose, the strength, op- Professor of Law, University of California, Berkeley. A.B., Harvard Uni- versity, 1961; J.D., University of Chicago, 1965. 1. The most cogent statement of this point is in Note, 14 U. OF TORONTO FACULTY OF LAW REv. 56, 61-62 (1956): "Since we are fettered by an unrealistic law of criminal attempts, overbalanced in favour of external acts, awaiting the lit match or the cocked and aimed pistol, the law of criminal conspiracy has been em- ployed to fill the gap."

Thank you for the opportunity to provide testimony to the Committee on the Judiciary and Public Safety for the record of the public hearing on B23-0723, the “Rioting Modernization Amendment Act of 2020” (hereafter “rioting bill”), and B23-0882, the “Comprehensive Policing and Justice Reform Amendment Act of 2020,” (hereafter “policing and justice reform bill”). My name is Richard Schmechel. I am the Executive Director of the Criminal Code Reform Commission (CCRC) and am testifying on its behalf. The CCRC is a small, independent District agency that began operation October 1, 2016. The CCRC’s primary mission is to issue comprehensive recommendations for the Mayor and Council on reform of the District’s criminal statutes. Specifically, the CCRC’s work is focused on developing comprehensive recommendations to reform the District’s “substantive” criminal statutes—i.e. laws that define crimes and punishments. The CCRC expects to issue its final recommendations on or by March 30, 2021. These recommendations will address at least four matters in the policing and justice reform bill and rioting bill, including: (1) codification of a new restriction on law enforcement use of force; (2) repeal of the current failure to arrest statute (D.C.

COMPOUNDING CRIMES: TIME FOR ENFORCEMENT? Compounding is a largely obscure part of American criminal law, and compounding statutes have become dusty weapons in the prosecu- tor's arsenal. An examination of this crime reveals few recently re- ported cases. Its formative case law evolved primarily during the nine- teenth and early twentieth centuries. As a result, one might expect to find that few states still retain compounding provisions in their stat- ute books. The truth, however, is quite to the contrary: compounding laws can be found in forty-five states.1 This note will define the compounding of crimes, offer a brief re- view of its nature and development to provide perspective, and distin- guish it from related crimes. It will analyze current American com- pounding law, explore why enforcement of compounding laws is dis- favored, and suggest that more vigorous enforcement may be appropri- ate, especially as a weapon against white collar crime.
