Their curiosity, enthusiasm, and insight have sustained and inspired me. Initial planning for that course, in fact, was supported by an internal teaching grant from my home institution, boston College. in the years that followed, i also received a boston College Faculty Fellowship (many thanks to Joe Quinn and mary Crane); support for an undergraduate research assistantship (undertaken by the endlessly capable nicole Wong); and then subvention going to press (thanks to vice Provost Kevin bedell and Dean David Quigley). at b.C., i have benefitted from the expertise and support of many colleagues. at the head of that list should go Jim Smith and Carlo rotella, who re-righted the ship on more than one occa- sion with their clarity, candor, and friendship. min Song read a draft of my introduction in the early going; i am repeatedly amazed by min’s seri- ousness and range. Paul lewis has brought his gifts of humor, emotional support, and intelligence to my cause so many times i have lost count. laura Tanner and James Krasner offered wonderful commentary on an earlier version of chapter 2; lad Tobin has continuously shared with me his love of literary nonfiction; nirmal Trivedi sustained my passion for this project by adding his own. Thanks also to the extraordinary assis- tance of the research staff of boston College’s library system, especially vii viii / Acknowledgments brendan rapple and anne Kenny. From other friends and colleagues, i have received support, both tangible and intangible, for which i am very grateful. Thanks to James bernauer, S.J., Patrick byrne, bob Chibka, Paul Doherty, rhonda Frederick, Candace hetzner, robin lydenberg, Kevin newmark, brendan rapple, Jamin rowan, robert Stanton, beth Wallace, Jim Wallace, matthew Watson, Judith Wilt, and Cynthia young. Topics in this book have also generated discussions, no less helpful to me, from afar. Sean mcCann first prompted me to think about the rela- tionship between crime and the state; lee bernstein weighed in, invaluably, on an early prospectus; Tom Ferraro shared his enthusiasm for direc- tions in my work that began, in part, by thinking about italian ameri- cans. i could also not have imagined more professional guidance than that which i received from the staff, and the anonymous outside readers, of The Ohio State University Press; thanks especially to maggie Diehl and Sandy Crooms. For scholarly assistance and general good will i must also thank Christine bold, Greg Conti, Peter Doyle, Sean Patrick Griffin, Gene newman, nicole rafter, Stuart Scheingold, Christophe den Tandt, and my dear Uncle George. like so many, i was saddened by the passing of emory elliott in the spring of 2009. emory became my faculty advisor during my senior year as an undergraduate; in those days, for the first of many times, i benefited from the example of his unpretentious wisdom and scholarship. every time i find myself climbing out on some unsupported limb, i see his eyes dancing. The John Fitzgerald Kennedy Presidential library and museum at the University of massachusetts-boston kindly allowed me access (reflected in chapter 1) to Joseph valachi’s manuscript and to correspondence in the library’s Peter maas Collection. i have presented portions of this book at several venues: thanks to the joint colloquium on irish and american Studies at b.C., particularly Kevin Kenny and (again) David Quigley; to the american Studies Summer institute at the University of massachu- setts-boston (thank you, Judy Smith and nina Tisch); and to the “Crime Cultures” Symposium hosted by the University of Portsmouth, in the UK. Thanks must go to bran nichol and his fellow organizers of that Sympo- sium, who offered comments on a version of chapter 4 that will appear in the volume Crime Cultures: Figuring Criminality in Literature and Film (london and new york: Continuum), edited by bran nicol, Patricia Pulham, and eugene mcnulty. The following publishers and institutions have also allowed me to reprint portions of Learning to Live with Crime from their journals: Springer, from “‘Where’s Whitey?’ ethnic Criminal- ity and the Problem of the informant,” Crime, Law, and Social Change Acknowledgments / ix (march 2005): 175–98; Duke University Press, from “Undercover: White ethnicity and Police exposé in the 1970s,” American Literature 77 (June 2005): 349–77; and the University of albany School of Criminal Justice, from “‘let’s Work out the Details:’ Putting interrogation in Prime Time,” Journal of Criminal Justice and Popular Culture 12 (Spring 2005): 47–64. Selections from “The Time of the Crime: Cold Case Squads and american Social memory,” Prospects: An Annual of American Cultural Studies 28 (2004): 497–518, are reprinted with the permission of Cambridge Univer- sity Press. My wife Greer and my daughter Jesse have sustained this project in countless ways. They have also had the extra burden of learning to live with me. i hope they know they are the joys of life itself. Introduction much of our crime problem is rooted in the structure of american society and culture. however, knowing this does not provide much help in formulating a realistic crime policy. a democratic crime policy, relying as it does on the lawful use of force modified by discretion, can neither alter the social structure nor reform criminals. most of what it can do well is very traditional and unexciting. it can defend social tranquility and protect citizens by deterring crime, preventing crime, and apprehending offenders. it can restrain for some time offenders who are likely to repeat their transgressions. no doubt, when these functions are not performed well, our crime problem is much worse. but criminal activity is likely to remain relatively high in the United States in the foreseeable future, regardless of the wisdom of crime policy. —robert P. rhodes, The Insoluble Problems of Crime (1977) “There is no condition one adjusts to so quickly as a state of war.” —a character in alice Sebold’s The Lovely Bones (2002) I. This is an interdisciplinary study of the contemporary war on crime, and how that war has made its way into cultural representation and public consciousness. in particular, it is about the real-world tactics of this cam- paign—strategies that, surprisingly, have not often occupied much space in our cultural and literary criticism. Over the last three decades we’ve seen an explosion of critical interest in crime narratives of all kinds: superb examinations of sensational serial killer stories, of fictional Godfathers and real Sopranos watchers, of noir and neo-noir private detectives. and yet, despite these scholarly investigations, what is striking is how compara- tively infrequently critical attention has been paid to representations of the 1 2 / Introduction less sensational dimensions of the war on crime. With our eye on the fears and phantoms of our “culture of crime,” we pay relatively less attention to writing that wrestles with what is happening in our police interrogation rooms, our precinct houses, or even our prisons. This subject is, nevertheless, a battlefield with many fronts. For exam- ple, what happens when a journalist from New York magazine approaches the campaign against organized crime not through the romantic depiction of Godfathers but through a low-level, workaday mechanic who informs on his mob? Why is it that interrogation scenes became central to some prime-time police melodramas in the 1990s—and what role did everyday police practices have in shaping those scenes? What is behind the recent fascination with cold case homicides—murder cases reopened years and even decades after their occurrence—to the point that such cases populate everything from american prime time to elite magazines like The New Yorker? and more importantly, what do these different trends have in common, and what do they tell us about the larger contours of political authority and consent in our era? about how recent changes in criminal justice and law enforcement have affected core american ideas about citi- zenship, criminal accountability, and state authority? My approach to these questions is historical, and my governing argu- ment is easily stated.

Abeytia iii Case 99: The Literary Lady By Ernest J. Abeytia ABSTRACT This is a crime fiction novel. It is a confluence of the styles, settings, plot lines, and character development of such luminaries of detective storytelling as Raymond Chandler, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, and Elmore Leonard, but it is not a hard copy or “cover” of anything they wrote. Bob Derby is a homicide detective in the Gardena, California police department. Gardena is one of 88 cities or towns in the County of Los Angeles. He has made an arrest in, or “cleared,” 98 of 101 homicide cases as the story begins, but he has never actually solved any of them. Somebody else always beats him to it and he then applies the police procedure that closes the case. The murder of Emma Williams is to be no different. iv Table of Contents Critical Introduction ........................................................................................................ vi Bibliography ................................................................................................................... xix Case 99: The Literary Lady ................................................................................................1 v Case 99: The Literary Lady By Ernest J.

Washington, D.C. 20530 Dear Mr. Attorney General: In March 2001, you asked me to lead a Commission to study security programs within the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Your request came at the urging of FBI Director Louis Freeh, who had concluded that an outside review was critical in light of the then recently discovered espionage by a senior Bureau official. In discharging my duties, I turned to six distinguished citizens as fellow Commissioners and to a staff of highly qualified professionals. I want to acknowledge the diligence with which my colleagues pursued the complex matters within our mandate. The Commission took its responsibilities seriously. It was meticulous in its investigation, vigorous in its discussions, candid in sharing views, and unanimous in its recommendations. When I agreed to chair the Commission, you promised the full cooperation and support of the Department of Justice and the FBI. That promise has been fulfilled. I would like to thank the Department’s Security and Emergency Planning Staff for the expert help they gave us, and I especially commend the cooperation of Director Mueller and FBI personnel at every level, who have all been chastened by treachery from within.

  • Forgiving & Forgetting in American Justice
    Forgiving and Forgetting in American Justice A 50-State Guide to Expungement and Restoration of Rights October 2017 COLLATERAL CONSEQUENCES RESOURCE CENTER The Collateral Consequences Resource Center is a non-profit organization established in 2014 to promote public discussion of the collateral consequences of conviction, the legal restrictions and social stigma that burden people with a criminal record long after their court-imposed sentence has been served. The resources available on the Center website are aimed primarily at lawyers and other criminal justice practitioners, scholars and researchers, but they should also be useful to policymakers and those most directly affected by the consequences of conviction. We welcome information about relevant current developments, including judicial decisions and new legislation, as well as proposals for blog posts on topics related to collateral consequences and criminal records. In addition, Center board members and staff are available to advise on law reform and practice issues. For more information, visit the CCRC at http://ccresourcecenter.org. This report was prepared by staff of the Collateral Consequences Resource Center, and is based on research compiled for the Restoration of Rights Project, a CCRC project launched in August 2017 in partnership with the National Association of Criminal Defense Lawyers, the National Legal Aid & Defender Association, and the National HIRE Network. The Restoration of Rights Project is an online resource containing detailed state-by-state analyses of the law and practice in each U.S. jurisdiction relating to restoration of rights and status following arrest or conviction. Jurisdictional “profiles” cover areas such as loss and restoration of civil rights and firearms rights, judicial and executive mechanisms for avoiding or mitigating collateral consequences, and provisions addressing non- discrimination in employment and licensing.

  • Ridley Scott Is Re-Engineering the Iconic Xenomorph for an Alien Prequel/Sequel That’S Taking the Sci-Fi Horror Series Back to Its Fright-Filled Roots
    ON SET 72 Nearly four decades after bursting onto the scene, Ridley Scott is re-engineering the iconic xenomorph for an Alien prequel/sequel that’s taking the sci-fi horror series back to its fright-filled roots. Total Film takes an express elevator to hell – aka the Sydney set of ALIEN: COVENANT – and comes face to face with a perfect organism. WORDS JORDan FARLEY TOTAL FILM | JULy 2017 ALIEN: COVENANT 73 JULy 2017 | TOTAL FILM MAKING OF idley Scott remembers Shepperton Studios like he’s just woken up from hypersleep. He remembers making movie history with Alien in 1979. Above all, he remembers his idle hands. How his own digits doubled for the finger-like legs of the facehugger twitching inside the egg. How he drew the film’s storyboards while studio suits ummed and ahhed over the budget. How he would improvise and improve set-ups until seconds before shooting, all because sitting around 74 – a common experience on film sets – would drive him “crazy”. If Ridley Scott’s own Alien memories are inextricably associated 78-year-old filmmaker’s mind for half nightmare and bland crossover franchise with idle hands, it’s only right that the his life. “Did it come about by accident… fodder. Scott famously returned to xenomorph itself, as revealed in Alien: or was it by design?” the series he launched in 2012 with Covenant, should be the product of a One thing’s for certain: intelligent Prometheus, an ambitious but flawed devil’s workshop. “Why on earth would design has rarely figured into the ad hoc prequel about the origins of humanity anyone make such a creature, and to evolution of the Alien series.

Each state‘s relative share of these programs is described. The geographic themes, patterns, and images from these programs are analyzed, with an emphasis on identity in five American regions: the Mid-Atlantic, New England, the Midwest, the South, and the West. The dissertation concludes with a comparison of television‘s senses of place to those described in previous studies of regional identity. iii For Sue iv CONTENTS List of Tables vi Acknowledgments vii 1.
