Government should NOT pry into the personal lives of Americans unless there is a societal impact because of the behavior . What Democrats need to understand is that it was President Clinton that opened the door to the sexual past of the accused , when it comes to a sexual harrassment lawsuit . At the urging of NOW and other lobbyists , Clinton signed into law the wide-open intrusive law that helps promote the " guilty until proven innocent " mentality when it comes to sexual harrassment . And what " gets " Republicans is that this intrusive law is good for everyone else EXCEPT the POTUS ! When the letter of the law ( that he signed ) is followed against him , it ' s considered a political witch hunt . When it ' s used against the average American male , it ' s considered " protecting " .

It has been accepted for inclusion in Faculty Scholarship by an authorized administrator of BrooklynWorks. PUNCH LINES: TWO TALES FROM A LAW STUDENT INTERN'S SUMMER IN THE CITY Stacy Caplow* The subway stairs exited onto an island in the middle of the avenue a few feet away from the New York City courthouse where many years later the lawyers and cops of Law & Order would descend, often at the end of the show when Jack McCoy would pontificate, ruminate, or recriminate. Years before the series became ubiquitous, I encountered a crime scene on those very steps on my way to work in the courthouse. In between the pillars at the top of the steps, a police officer in full uniform was pointing a gun at a man coming out of the doors. Bang! Then another Bang! Two shots exploded on a summer morning. I ducked and yelled something truly ineffectual like, "Oh, my God." Then, two more shots: Bang! Bang! Something was weird. No one was screaming or running. The man on the steps was still standing. A uniformed police officer walked down the steps. No one was rushing at the shooter. I must have been the only person on the street who did not see the movie trucks, the extras, the booms and all of the equipment.

  • Small-Screen Courtrooms a Hit with Lawyers - Buffalo - Buffalo Business First
    9/18/2018 Small-screen courtrooms a hit with lawyers - Buffalo - Buffalo Business First MENU Account FOR THE EXCLUSIVE USE OF [email protected] From the Buffalo Business First: https://www.bizjournals.com/buffalo/news/2018/09/17/small-screen-courtrooms-a-hit-with-lawyers.html Small-screen courtrooms a hit with lawyers Sep 17, 2018, 6:00am EDT For many, TV shows are an escape from reality. For attorneys, that’s no different – even when they’re watching lawyers on TV. “Better Call Saul” is the latest in a long line of TV shows about the legal profession. A prequel to AMC’s “Breaking Bad,” the show stars Bob Odenkirk as a crooked-at-times attorney named Jimmy McGill. “He’s a likable guy and you like his character,” said Patrick Fitzsimmons, senior associate at Hodgson Russ LLP in Buffalo. “It’s a great show. I think it’s the one BEN LEUNER/AMC show compared to the others where it’s not about a big firm.” “Better Call Saul” puts a new spin on legal drama as the slippery Jimmy McGill (played by Bob Odenkirk) Also a fan is Michael Benz, an associate at HoganWillig who recently returned to builds his practice. his native Buffalo after working in the Philadelphia public defender’s office and in his own practice as a criminal defense attorney. “(Odenkirk’s character is) the classic defense attorney who will do anything to make a buck or help his client,” Benz said, adding that he often binge-watches shows with his wife, Carla, an attorney in the federal public defender’s office in Buffalo.

  • Narco-Narratives and Transnational Form: the Geopolitics of Citation in the Circum-Caribbean
    Narco-narratives and Transnational Form: The Geopolitics of Citation in the Circum-Caribbean Jason Frydman [email protected] Brooklyn College Abstract: This essay argues that narco-narratives--in film, television, literature, and music-- depend on structures of narrative doubles to map the racialized and spatialized construction of illegality and distribution of death in the circum-Caribbean narco-economy. Narco-narratives stage their own haunting by other geographies, other social classes, other media; these hauntings refract the asymmetries of geo-political and socio-cultural power undergirding both the transnational drug trade and its artistic representation. The circum-Caribbean cartography offers both a corrective to nation- or language-based approaches to narco-culture, as well as a vantage point on the recursive practices of citation that are constitutive of transnational narco-narrative production. A transnational field of narrative production responding to the violence of the transnational drug trade has emerged that encompasses music and film, television and journalism, pulp and literary fiction. Cutting across nations, languages, genres, and media, a dizzying narrative traffic in plotlines, character-types, images, rhythms, soundtracks, expressions, and gestures travels global media channels through appropriations, repetitions, allusions, shoutouts, ripoffs, and homages. While narco-cultural production extends around the world, this essay focuses on the transnational frame of the circum-Caribbean as a zone of particularly dense, if not foundational, narrative traffic. The circum-Caribbean cartography offers 2 both a corrective to nation- or language-based approaches to narco-culture, as well as a vantage point on incredibly recursive practices of citation that are constitutive of the whole array of narco-narrative production: textual, visual, and sonic.

    9/28/2016 Arkansas Connections: A Time­line of the Clinton Years by Sam Smith CLINTON E­MAIL INDEX UNDERNEWS ARCHIVES US Arkansas Connections A CHART THAT APPEARED IN THE PROGRESSIVE REVIEW, MAY 1992 The media tried to turn the Clinton story into Camelot II. Just the truth would have made life easier for all of us. And a much better tale as well. Sam Smith COPYRIGHT 1998 THE PROGRESSIVE REVIEW Updated January 2001 and periodically thereafter http://prorev.com/connex.htm 1/47 9/28/2016 Arkansas Connections: A Time­line of the Clinton Years by Sam Smith 1950s When Bill Clinton is 7, his family moves from Hope, Arkansas, to the long­time mob resort of Hot Springs, AR. Here Al Capone is said to have had permanent rights to suite 443 of the Arlington Hotel. Clinton's stepfather is a gun­ brandishing alcoholic who loses his Buick franchise through mismanagement and his own pilfering. He physically abuses his family, including the young Bill. His mother is a heavy gambler with mob ties. According to FBI and local police officials, his Uncle Raymond ­­ to whom young Bill turns for wisdom and support ­­ is a colorful car dealer, slot machine owner and gambling operator, who thrives (except when his house is firebombed) on the fault line of criminality. Paul Bosson, Hot Springs Prosecutor ­ In Hot Springs, growing up here, you were living a lie. You lived a lie because you knew that all of these activities were illegal. I mean, as soon as you got old enough to be able to read a newspaper, you knew that gambling in Arkansas was illegal, prostitution was illegal.

  • The Dismal Science the Irrational 18-Year-Old Criminal by Joel
    Print the dismal science The Irrational 18-Year-Old Criminal Evidence that prison doesn't deter crime. By Joel Waldfogel Posted Tuesday, Jan. 30, 2007, at 4:54 PM ET Crime control is one of the oldest problems facing social science, dating at least to Beccaria, the 18th- century Italian philosopher who tried to put punishment on a rational footing. Two basic tools for controlling crime are policing and imprisonment, corresponding broadly to the first and second half- hours of a Law & Order episode. (In the vintage cast lineup, Detective Lennie Briscoe identifies a prime suspect before the second commercial break, and then prosecutor Jack McCoy does battle in court to get the defendant prison time.) Both the prospect of getting caught and the prospect of spending time in prison are supposed to deter forward-looking, rational potential offenders from criminal activity, encouraging more-constructive pursuits like staying in school or at least making French fries. More mechanically, prison also prevents crime by simply caging dangerous people. Deterrence has long been an article of faith among economic theorists and, more recently, economists who do empirical work, too. But now a series of careful studies by economists at Columbia and the University of Michigan are calling into question whether either policing or punishment successfully deters crime. With the traditional tools of social science, the deterrent effect of policing and punishment is hard to measure. Usually, empiricists infer an effect if crime is lower in circumstances with stiffer punishments or more policing. The problem is that tougher policies don't occur randomly.

  • Reining in Election-Day Dirty Tricks
    ABA Section of State and Local Government Law 2008 Fall Council Meeting September 17-21, 2008 Hotel Sax ChicagoƔ Chicago, IL Voting and Election Law CLE: Reining in Election-Day Dirty Tricks Benjamin E. Griffith* Friday, September 19, 2008 9:00 a.m. to 11:15 a.m. – Chicago “Tactics of suppression have different effects depending on the communities they reach, and these effects are inextricably tied to past injustices. Unfortunately, these injustices continue in campaigns through more decentralized and subversive strategies of suppression.”1 Introduction A laundry list of linguistic fig leaves grew out of the Watergate era. To the generation still in diapers (or not yet a twinkle in their parents’ eyes) in 1972, the euphemisms, mafia jargon, and double talk generated in the wake of the break-in of the Democratic Party’s headquarters at the Watergate Hotel (and its coverup by the Nixon Administration) are strange indeed. These enduring icons in American political lore include •dirty tricks, •enemies lists, •coverup, •third-rate burglary attempt, •Deep Throat, •Saturday Night Massacre, •Watergate plumbers unit, •expletive deleted, •operative and unoperative statements, •18 ½ minute gap, •limited hangout solution •CREEP, and 1 •smoking gun. These and other terms associated with political corruption, deceit, blackmail, misbehavior and criminality became part of the lexicon of the American political process over three decades ago, but they are only a few of those used to characterize the underbelly of some of the worst political antics and campaigns in America. The typical Post-9/11 political campaign has morphed into a juggernaut that is anything but sober and responsible.

  • The Greatest Crime of All Time Vol 2
    Praise for Global Outlook Issue 11 which is now this book called: 9/11: THE GREATEST CRIME OF ALL TIME The Best of Global Outlook™ Vol. II “I’ve described [Issue 11 of Global Outlook] to friends as an excellent overview, which could well be given to people as a very accessible introduction to many of the major issues, along with suggestions on how to get involved in the movement. This should really be considered one of the major 9/11 publications, to be mentioned alongside the leading books. Congratulations on a grand achievement.” – David Ray Griffin, Author of The New Pearl Harbor: Disturbing Questions about the Bush Administration and 9/11 and The 9/11 Commission Report: Omissions & Distortions “The current issue of Global Outlook [# 11], is much more than a magazine. It approaches being a book. It’s an inspiring and fact-filled current affairs reader and reference book combined. In a few years (very few I hope), when the hideously corrupt and deceitful planet-killing oligarchy is deposed, this issue, among others, will be sought after by librarians and historians. Hang on to your copy now, sell it then, and use the proceeds to enjoy the safer, saner world you’ll be living in then, thanks in large part to the efforts of the people behind this publication.” – Barrie Zwicker, Author of Towers of Deception: The Media Cover-Up and 9/11 and Producer of The Great Conspiracy – The 9/11 News Special You Never Saw (DVD) “Thanks for sending me Issue 11 of Global Outlook. It’s quite an impressive issue.
