Our Constitutional Constraints: Adjudication (Henderson's Criminal Law and Procedure) (May 25, 2021)

by Stephen E Henderson (Author)

(1)

Suitable for the American law school classroom or self-study, this book is about the criminal attorney—what the federal Constitution says prosecutors and defense attorneys can and cannot do in the adjudication of crime. It is also critically about what those actors _ought_ to do in the adjudication of crime. The text proceeds as chronologically as possible through the process of a prosecution, beginning with pretrial release and the charging decision, considering trial preparation and the right to counsel, turning to the jury and then the defense, stepping back to consider guilty pleas and plea bargaining, and finishing off with double jeopardy and sentencing. For further information, including what makes this book very unique among law school texts, please see the book’s Preface (‘From the Author’).

The Criminal Law (Henderson's Criminal Law and Procedure) (May 19, 2022)

by Stephen E. Henderson (Author)

(1)

Suitable for a first-year course in the American law school curriculum or self-study, this book examines the core doctrines of the criminal law, including its ‘general part’ consisting of the justifications of punishment, the requirements of criminality, the criminal defenses, inchoate crime, and vicarious liability. It also examines a small portion of the criminal law’s ‘special part’ via criminal homicide and the crime of theft. American criminal law is a complicated subject that has evolved from the common law to statutes in a non-uniform and often messy manner, but the issues addressed are some of the most fundamental in any civilized society. Our government inflicts—in our name—pain, stigma, and even death. This book will equip anyone to understand the substance, though not the procedure, of these decisions. For further information, please see the book's Preface ('From the Author').

Our Constitutional Constraints: Policing (Henderson's Criminal Law and Procedure) (November 26, 2021)

by Stephen E Henderson (Author)

(3)

Suitable for the American law school classroom or self-study, this book is about the police—what they can and cannot do in the investigation of crime. There are many sources of such rules, from constitutions to laws to internal regulations to officer norms, but this teaches only the top of that pyramid: the restrictions of the United States Constitution. In particular, it examines the Fourth Amendment’s protection against unreasonable search and seizure, some of the Fifth Amendment’s guarantee of due process and privilege against compulsory self-incrimination, and a bit about the Sixth Amendment’s right to counsel. Together, this is much of the constitutional law that prevents our living in a police state: anti-accuracy norms enshrined in our Constitution to protect our liberty, our humanity, and our dignity. This book is therefore also about the people—We the People—and what rights we can expect, and what rights we should expect, as against those who are (or should be) seeking to keep us safe.
