Stancill ................... 412 Spring Lakes ................... 413 HEADNOTE INDEX APPEAL AND ERROR Abandonment of issues—lack of argument on appeal—prior bad acts—On appeal from a conviction for first-degree sex offense with a child, defendant aban- doned his argument that the trial court should have excluded evidence that he pre- viously observed the victim through a hole in the wall taking showers. Although defendant challenged the basis for the trial court’s ruling, he offered no specific argu- ment as to why that prior act was inadmissible under Evidence Rule 404(b) or should have been excluded under Rule 403. State v. Godfrey, 264. Access to sealed court file—standard of review—de novo—In an action by a newspaper seeking public access to a sealed court file pursuant to N.C.G.S. § 1-72.1 and in which the newspaper asserted multiple constitutional claims, the Court of Appeals determined that the correct standard of review on appeal was de novo. Doe v. Doe, 68. Appealability—interlocutory order—arbitration—An appeal from an order compelling arbitration was dismissed as interlocutory where plaintiff did not dem- onstrate that a substantial right would be lost if her appeal was not heard. Although plaintiff attempted to distinguish controlling precedent on the basis of a difference between North Carolina’s Revised Uniform Arbitration Act (NC-RUAA) and the Federal Arbitration Act (FAA), there was no reason that the substantial right analysis would be any different under the FAA versus the NC-RUAA. Spencer v. Portfolio Recovery Assocs., LLC, 219. Interlocutory orders—substantial right—right to a jury trial—ultimate fac- tual issue—An interlocutory order in a boundary dispute affected a substantial right and was immediately appealable where plaintiffs had demanded a jury trial and the trial court’s order effectively mooted all of plaintiffs’ claims by ruling on the ultimate factual issue of the location of the boundary line, without a jury trial. Ayscue v. Griffin, 1. Mootness—temporary order—expiration—The question of whether the trial court lacked jurisdiction to grant temporary child custody in a Domestic Violence Prevention Order was moot. The order expired more than one month before the mat- ter was heard by the Court of Appeals. Martin v. Martin, 173. Preservation of issues—denial of motion for DNA testing—Defendant pre- served for appellate review the denial of his motion for post-conviction DNA testing. N.C.G.S. § 15A-270.1 explicitly states that the defendant may appeal an order denying the defendant’s motion for DNA testing, including by an interlocutory appeal. State v. Byers, 231. Preservation of issues—Fourth Amendment—intrusion of officers—revoca- tion of implied license—In a prosecution for multiple drug offenses, defendant failed to preserve for appellate review an argument that signs he placed on his front door operated as a revocation of any implied license for law enforcement officers to iv APPEAL AND ERROR—Continued approach his home, where he did not first raise the argument in the trial court.State v. Piland, 323. Preservation of issues—insufficient argument—The Court of Appeals did not address an argument on appeal where the plaintiff alleged error in a one-paragraph brief and cited no case law or other authorities. Gyger v. Clement, 118. Prior Supreme Court case—virtually identical argument rejected—Where defense counsel conceded that an argument virtually identical to his argument regarding the prohibition against ex post facto laws had been rejected by the North Carolina Supreme Court, defendant’s argument was overruled. State v. Seam, 355. Record—partial transcription—insufficient—The amount and duration of an alimony award was affirmed where the sufficiency of the evidence could not be reviewed due to an incomplete transcript. The trial court made findings on many of the relevant factors and is assumed to have made findings on all of the factors for which evidence was presented. Gilmartin v. Gilmartin, 104.

  • New Jersey's Adult Internet Luring Statute
    NEW JERSEY’S ADULT INTERNET LURING STATUTE: AN APPROPRIATE NEXT STEP? 1 JOHN W. LOMAS, JR. ABSTRACT New Jersey recently enacted legislation prohibiting the use of the Internet to lure or entice someone to a location with the purpose of committing a crime with or against that person or some other person. Most states have similar laws pertaining to pedophiles, but this is the first adult Internet luring statute. State measures to regulate the Internet, even in the context of criminal justice, will likely face constitutional challenge since the Internet has become such a critical vehicle for both protected speech and interstate commerce. Furthermore, while the use of the Internet in the commission of crimes against other persons is a new phenomenon, it is unclear whether new laws are the best solution, or whether other responses such as equipping police and investigators with more resources and training to properly enforce existing law would be more effective. This iBrief analyzes the issues New Jersey will face with its statute and the issues other states should be aware of when considering similar legislation. INTRODUCTION ¶1 Public service announcements on the radio, crime drama television shows, stories from the local news – the Internet predator threat to children has been thoroughly publicized through these and many other types of media.2 Responding to this threat, many states have enacted laws prohibiting the use of the Internet to communicate with children in a sexual manner.3 Many of these laws prohibit luring or enticing children via the 1 J.D.

  • CHAPTER 4 CHAPTER 5 Internet Sex Offending and the Online Sting
    CHAPTER 45 Internet Sex Offending and the Online Sting Richard G. Wright One of the most diffi cult struggles in American society is maintaining a constant balance between individual privacy and public safety. In our democratic, diverse, pluralistic society, we have the freedom to think our own thoughts, practice our beliefs, and ponder about various possibilities. The problem arises when our thoughts and beliefs encourage behaviors that fl irt with criminality. In this clash, we turn to our policy makers to enact criminal laws that are supposed to refl ect a moral consensus. In the 21st century, much of American life has moved online. Parts of our fi nances, higher education, health information, and social circles have moved online. Naturally, for many people, part of their online persona includes their sexuality. From seeking information about safe sex, pregnancy, infertility, and healthy sexual practices, as well as fetishes and support groups, people use the Internet to explore (and in some cases extend) their sexuality. This can lead to a confl ict between one’s online sexual desires and one’s private sexual practices. This chapter analyzes numerous issues with Internet sex stings (ISS). ISS are tools used by the law enforcement to arrest adults who are interested in having sex with minors. Despite the seemingly simplistic intent of ISS (to arrest online predators before they assault a child), this practice is quite complex. There are those who use the Internet for deviant sexual purposes. Some of these men and women go online with the intent to solicit a minor for an in-person sexual assault (also known as contact offending).

  • Conspiracy and the Fantasy Defense: the Strange Case of the Cannibal Cop
    EK IN PRINTER FINAL (DO NOT DELETE) 1/26/2015 8:11 PM Notes CONSPIRACY AND THE FANTASY DEFENSE: THE STRANGE CASE OF THE CANNIBAL COP KAITLIN EK† ABSTRACT In the notorious “Cannibal Cop” case, New York police officer Gilberto Valle was accused of conspiring to kidnap, kill, and eat various women of his acquaintance. Valle claimed a “fantasy defense,” arguing that his expression represented not conspiracy agreement, but fantasy role-play. His conviction and subsequent acquittal raised questions about the freedom of speech, thoughtcrime, and the nature of conspiracy law. Because the essence of conspiracy is agreement, it falls into the category of crimes in which pure speech is the actus reus of the offense. This Note argues that as a result, conspiracy cases in which the fantasy defense is implicated pose special due-process and First Amendment dangers, and concludes that these dangers can be mitigated by a strengthened overt-act requirement. INTRODUCTION “Gil Valle’s fantasy is about seeing women executed. The fantasies that he is engaging in are about seeing women sexually assaulted, executed and left for dead. That’s not a fantasy that is OK.” – Randall W. Jackson, Assistant United States Attorney, in closing argument.1 The headlines sound like something out of a schlocky slasher flick: “‘Cannibal’ Cop Plotted to Eat 100 Women: Feds,”2 “NYPD Copyright © 2015 Kaitlin Ek. † Duke University School of Law, J.D. expected 2015; University of Nebraska, B.A. 2011.
