Alabama's Criminal Justice System is a compilation of original chapters by experts in the Alabama justice system. It presents a brief history of the state's criminal justice organization and procedures, as well as its law enforcement and correctional bodies. The authors discuss many federal and Supreme Court cases originating from conditions in Alabama that impinged upon the rights of its citizens and led to a standard practice of repression in the procedures of law enforcement, courts, and corrections. In addition to these topics, special attention is given to the juvenile justice system and victims' rights. PowerPoint slides are available to professors upon adoption of this book. Download sample slides from the full 444-slide presentation here. If you have adopted the book for a course, contact bhall (at) cap-press (dot) com to request the PowerPoint slides.

Oddball comedy starring Matt Lucas. Bald and morbidly obese Franklin Franklin (Lucas) lives in an apartment complex filled with other quirky and eccentric characters including his stoner neighbour Tommy Balls (Johnny Knoxville) and the permanently bitter Mr. Allspice (James Caan). In a heated argument over rent, Franklin accidentally kills his landlord Mr Olivetti (Peter Stormare) and while staging the death as a suicide unwittingly causes a fire. When he hears that his brother has died from a brain tumour and left him a rather large amount of money in a Swiss bank account, Franklin sees an opportunity to make his escape, but before he can do so, he'll have to avoid detection by the fire investigation team led by Burt Walnut (Billy Crystal).

Winner of the Anne B. & James B. McMillan Prize in Southern History Examines the legacies of eight momentous US Supreme Court decisions that have their origins in Alabama legal disputes Unknown to many, Alabama has played a remarkable role in a number of Supreme Court rulings that continue to touch the lives of every American. In Alabama Justice: The Cases and Faces That Changed a Nation, Steven P. Brown has identified eight landmark cases that deal with religion, voting rights, libel, gender discrimination, and other issues, all originating from legal disputes in Alabama. Written in a concise and accessible manner, each case law chapter begins with the circumstances that created the dispute. Brown then provides historical and constitutional background for the issue followed by a review of the path of litigation. Excerpts from the Court's ruling in the case are also presented, along with a brief account of the aftermath and significance of the decision. The First Amendment (New York Times v. Sullivan), racial redistricting (Gomillion v. Lightfoot), the Equal Protection Clause of the Fourteenth Amendment (Frontiero v. Richardson), and prayer in public schools (Wallace v. Jaffree) are among the pivotal issues stamped indelibly by disputes with their origins in Alabama legal, political, and cultural landscapes. In addition to his analysis of cases, Brown discusses the three associate justices sent from Alabama to the Supreme Court--John McKinley, John Archibald Campbell, and Hugo Black--whose cumulative influence on the institution of the Court, constitutional interpretation, and the day-to-day rights and liberties enjoyed by every American is impossible to measure. A closing chapter examines the careers and contributions of these three Alabamians.

In a series of newly commissioned essays from the leading scholars and advocates in criminal justice, Invisible Punishment explores, for the first time, the far-reaching consequences of our current criminal justice policies. Adopted as part of “get tough on crime” attitudes that prevailed in the 1980s and '90s, a range of strategies, from “three strikes” and “a war on drugs,” to mandatory sentencing and prison privatization, have resulted in the mass incarceration of American citizens, and have had enormous effects not just on wrong-doers, but on their families and the communities they come from. This book looks at the consequences of these policies twenty years later.
