  • Competing Theories of Blackmail: an Empirical Research Critique of Criminal Law Theory
    Competing Theories of Blackmail: An Empirical Research Critique of Criminal Law Theory Paul H. Robinson,* Michael T. Cahill** & Daniel M. Bartels*** The crime of blackmail has risen to national media attention because of the David Letterman case, but this wonderfully curious offense has long been the favorite of clever criminal law theorists. It criminalizes the threat to do something that would not be criminal if one did it. There exists a rich liter- ature on the issue, with many prominent legal scholars offering their accounts. Each theorist has his own explanation as to why the blackmail offense exists. Most theories seek to justify the position that blackmail is a moral wrong and claim to offer an account that reflects widely shared moral intuitions. But the theories make widely varying assertions about what those shared intuitions are, while also lacking any evidence to support the assertions. This Article summarizes the results of an empirical study designed to test the competing theories of blackmail to see which best accords with pre- vailing sentiment. Using a variety of scenarios designed to isolate and test the various criteria different theorists have put forth as “the” key to blackmail, this study reveals which (if any) of the various theories of blackmail proposed to date truly reflects laypeople’s moral judgment. Blackmail is not only a common subject of scholarly theorizing but also a common object of criminal prohibition. Every American jurisdiction criminalizes blackmail, although there is considerable variation in its formulation. The Article reviews the American statutes and describes the three general approaches these provisions reflect.

  • Mandatory Minimum Penalties and Statutory Relief Mechanisms
    Chapter 2 HISTORY OF MANDATORY MINIMUM PENALTIES AND STATUTORY RELIEF MECHANISMS A. INTRODUCTION This chapter provides a detailed historical account of the development and evolution of federal mandatory minimum penalties. It then describes the development of the two statutory mechanisms for obtaining relief from mandatory minimum penalties. B. MANDATORY MINIMUM PENALTIES IN THE EARLY REPUBLIC Congress has used mandatory minimum penalties since it enacted the first federal penal laws in the late 18th century. Mandatory minimum penalties have always been prescribed for a core set of serious offenses, such as murder and treason, and also have been enacted to address immediate problems and exigencies. The Constitution authorizes Congress to establish criminal offenses and to set the punishments for those offenses,17 but there were no federal crimes when the First Congress convened in New York in March 1789.18 Congress created the first comprehensive series of federal offenses with the passage of the 1790 Crimes Act, which specified 23 federal crimes.19 Seven of the offenses in the 1790 Crimes Act carried a mandatory death penalty: treason, murder, three offenses relating to piracy, forgery of a public security of the United States, and the rescue of a person convicted of a capital crime.20 One of the piracy offenses specified four different forms of criminal conduct, arguably increasing to 10 the number of offenses carrying a mandatory minimum penalty.21 Treason, 17 See U.S. Const. art. I, §8 (enumerating powers to “provide for the Punishment of counterfeiting the Securities and current Coin of the United States” and to “define and punish Piracies and Felonies committed on the high Seas, and Offences against the Law of Nations”); U.S.

  • Sleuthing Tips! How This Mystery Works: This Mystery Is Similar to the Board Game CLUE
    Murder n’ Mayhem - Sleuthing Tips! How this mystery works: This mystery is similar to the board game CLUE. (Think of this voyage as playing a live game of CLUE!) You will use CLUE Cards and evidence to solve the crime. There are three different CLUE Cards: Suspect, Weapon and Motive. Plus, evidence items also represent the one who is guilty and will help narrow down your list of suspects. Gathering Information: You are looking for the character that is a suspect, has a motive and has the weapon. Some characters are not a suspect; others are, but only have a weapon or a motive. Once you find the character with all 3 of these you will solve the crime. Interrogation Techniques: In your efforts to solve this crime there are many questions you will want to ask the suspects. Here are some examples: How did you know the deceased? Do you have any evidence that relates to the crime? Are you a suspect in the murder? Why would you want the victim dead? Do you own a weapon? (Note: These last three questions relate to the CLUE Cards.) Evidence at the Crime Scene: Unfortunately, some of the guests disturbed the crime scene and took pieces of evidence. Those who have evidence are able to use these items however they wish; bribery, blackmail, barter, etc… If you have a piece of evidence you cannot lie. You must share it. It is up to you though if you are sharing it for free, doing an exchange, or charging a fee. The number of evidence items that are relevant to the murder will be revealed during the voyage.

  • Martin County Mysteries Part 2
    Martin County Mysteries, Mayhem, and More . PART II Part II of this series starts in the Tenhassen woods during the 1860s and involves a fierce fight. From the Tenhassen woods we move on to Sherburn and witness a daring bank robbery. Following the Sherburn bank robbery is an account of a cold blooded murder in Martin County, and finally, an attempted robbery of the former Red Owl store in Fairmont involving gunfire at the police who were giving chase. The review of local legends couldn’t be complete without including the famed “Carver- Tuttle Fight of 1862.” Legend has it that Sam Carver, a huge, stern character with a booming voice decided to settle in the vicinity of “Tuttle’s Grove” in 1860. He was soon met by Calvin Tuttle who made it very clear that this was his land and that Carver should move on. Later, Tuttle and his two sons returned to Carver’s camp again telling him to leave. Tuttle’s threats continued and, finally, in 1862, he made a vow that if Carver could beat him in a fair fight, Tuttle and his family would depart leaving his entire “empire” to Carver. Consequently, the battle was staged in a clearing in the Tenhassen woods that resembled a natural amphitheater. Both men agreed to a fair fight, however, as Carver raised his arms to remove his jacket Tuttle abruptly smashed him in the face. Carver, having his arms caught in his jacket sleeves, finally freed one arm and punched Tuttle in the groin, From that point on, nothing was barred and the fight continued with fists, fingernails, and teeth used as weapons.

    Filed 7/23/19 CERTIFIED FOR PARTIAL PUBLICATION* IN THE COURT OF APPEAL OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA THIRD APPELLATE DISTRICT (Shasta) ---- THE PEOPLE, C086476 Plaintiff and Respondent, (Super. Ct. No. 17F4235) v. HEAVEN LEANN TURNER et al., Defendants and Appellants. APPEAL from a judgment of the Superior Court of Shasta County, Adam B. Ryan, Judge. Affirmed as modified. Denise M. Rudasill, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant, Heaven Leann Turner. James Bisnow, under appointment by the Court of Appeal, for Defendant and Appellant, Michael Rafferty. Xavier Becerra, Attorney General, Gerald A. Engler, Chief Assistant Attorney General, Michael P. Farrell, Senior Assistant Attorney General, Kathleen A. McKenna and Angelo S. Edralin, Deputy Attorneys General, for Plaintiff and Respondent. * Pursuant to California Rules of Court, rules 8.1105 and 8.1110, this opinion is certified for publication with the exception of parts I B through F and II of the Discussion. 1 Mary H. was attacked and robbed at home in the early hours of the morning. A jury found defendants Heaven Leann Turner and Michael Benjamin Rafferty guilty of first degree robbery and found Turner guilty of mayhem as well. Defendants respectively raise several arguments on appeal. In the published portion of this opinion, we reject Turner’s instructional error claims. Turner argues the trial court prejudicially erred in failing to instruct the jury sua sponte that the infliction of great bodily injury is a required element to prove mayhem and that, like the disfigurement theory of mayhem, permanent injury is required to prove mayhem under the “slit of the lip” theory.
