A jury convicted Slaughter on both charges in 1983. The trial court sentenced him to twenty years’ imprisonment for first-degree robbery and to death for murder. The Supreme Court of Kentucky affirmed the conviction and sentence on direct appeal. Slaughter v. Commonwealth, 744 S.W.2d 407 (Ky. 1987), cert. denied, 490 U.S. 1113 (1989). Slaughter filed a post-conviction motion to vacate, set aside or correct the judgment. See RCr 11.42. Following an extended evidentiary hearing in 1994, the trial court overruled the motion. The Supreme Court of Kentucky affirmed the decision to deny post-conviction relief. Slaughter v. Commonwealth, Appeal No. 96-SC-0049-MR (Ky., rendered April 27, 1999) (unpublished disposition). Petitioner then filed the present 1 Petitioner’s true name is not James Earl Slaughter. His legal name is Jeffrey Devane Leonard.

DIEHL President Page Three To the Class of 1947: It was a tense, fearsome, and uncertain time in September, 1943, when fifty-five men and ninety-eight women enrolled as members of this class. 'During the pa .st four years we have been awed and sobered by world-shaking happenings. Able prophets had told us that we were living at the end of an age, but we found it difficult to believe them and to adjust ourselves to this idea. On August 6, 1945, however, when the first atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima, we were stunned into a realization that the curtain had risen upon a new world drama, one in which not only we, but many others hitherto almost unknown, would be the chief actors. Science gave us the atomic bomb, but, since it is admitted that there is no technological defense from its ravages, science cannot give us that "One World" of righteousness and understanding, of kindliness and goodwill, without which there can be no hope that the play will be 'other than a terrible tragedy. However important are the political, the economic, and the social problems, the major problem of our time is fundamentally ethical. The only answer to atomic power is moral power, and the Golden Rule; is the one true plumb line.

  • The Phenomenological Aesthetics of the French Action Film
    Les Sensations fortes: The phenomenological aesthetics of the French action film DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Alexander Roesch Graduate Program in French and Italian The Ohio State University 2017 Dissertation Committee: Margaret Flinn, Advisor Patrick Bray Dana Renga Copyrighted by Matthew Alexander Roesch 2017 Abstract This dissertation treats les sensations fortes, or “thrills”, that can be accessed through the experience of viewing a French action film. Throughout the last few decades, French cinema has produced an increasing number of “genre” films, a trend that is remarked by the appearance of more generic variety and the increased labeling of these films – as generic variety – in France. Regardless of the critical or even public support for these projects, these films engage in a spectatorial experience that is unique to the action genre. But how do these films accomplish their experiential phenomenology? Starting with the appearance of Luc Besson in the 1980s, and following with the increased hybrid mixing of the genre with other popular genres, as well as the recurrence of sequels in the 2000s and 2010s, action films portray a growing emphasis on the importance of the film experience and its relation to everyday life. Rather than being direct copies of Hollywood or Hong Kong action cinema, French films are uniquely sensational based on their spectacular visuals, their narrative tendencies, and their presentation of the corporeal form. Relying on a phenomenological examination of the action film filtered through the philosophical texts of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Paul Ricoeur, Mikel Dufrenne, and Jean- Luc Marion, in this dissertation I show that French action cinema is pre-eminently concerned with the thrill that comes from the experience, and less concerned with a ii political or ideological commentary on the state of French culture or cinema.
