Shuttleworth G: Mentally-Deficient
Children: Their Treatment and Training

Mentally-Deficient Children: Their Treatment and Training

Investigates the significance of video evidence in criminal trials of police officers charged for on-duty shooting incidents Lawyers describe video evidence as a "game changer" for achieving criminal accountability in police-involved shootings. Despite a proliferation of videos of police-involved violence that attract considerable public attention and condemnation, trials and convictions remain rare. Once promised as a mechanism for delivering police oversight and accountability, video has yet to resolve complaints and achieve consensus about the lawfulness of use-of-force incidents, especially lethal force disproportionately applied to Black and Indigenous people. Trial by Video examines eight criminal cases between 2015 and 2020 of police officers charged for on-duty shootings in the United States and Canada, to examine what video brings, and fails to bring, to criminal trials. Video is widely recognized as critical evidence but is highly contested throughout the trials. Whatever the virtues of video, these cases often turn on adversarial arguments about the motive of the accused officer and the "reasonableness" of force. Watson, Nave, and Lynch interviewed lawyers who worked on these cases, and reviewed court documents, news stories, official reports, and leading case law. While video evidence is thought to "speak for itself," the book shows how video evidence is mobilized through litigation to shape courtroom arguments. In the courtroom, video is played, replayed, technically reconstructed, and subjected to expert commentary, but it is also used as an interrogative tool to contest or corroborate the statements of witnesses, including the accused officer. Ultimately, Trial by Video shows how lawyers, experts, and the accused officers themselves can reappropriate video evidence in order to avoid accountability.

Police, Lethal Force, and the Struggle for Accountability

Trial by Video

This book brings together contributions from leading international lawyers from different generations, countries, and substantive areas of specialization-from public international law generalists to regional experts-, reflecting on topics currently shaping the future of international law towards which Antônio Augusto Cançado Trindade made an enduring contribution. A generalist, Cançado Trindade is arguably the highest exponent of public international lawyer to emerge so far from Latin America. A seating judge at the International Court of Justice (ICJ) at the time of his passing, he was a Member of the Curatorium of the Hague Academy of International Law (since 2004) and a Member of the prestigious Institute of International Law (since 1997). He was a judge at the Inter-American Court of Human Rights for many years, and its president (elected 1999, re-elected 2002). During that time he contributed to some of the most important jurisprudence delivered by the Inter-American Court, which became clearly influential in the development of international law as we know it today.While at the ICJ, Cançado Trindade was what Justice Bader Ginsburg was to the US Supreme Court: "the Great Dissenter". He wrote for future generations of international law scholars and his Dissenting Opinions aspired to one day become the dominant view. He delivered the General Course on Public International Law at the Hague Academy of International Law in 2005, International Law for Humankind: Towards a New Jus Gentium. His critical thinking has made an important contribution to the field of international law and inspired new generations of international law practitioners and scholars.This book will be an important reference for practitioners, academics, researchers, university students and international law specialists working in international courts and tribunals with issues of international justice.Monica Feria-Tinta is a barrister at Twenty Essex in London, United Kingdom.

Critical Criminological Perspectives

This edited book centres the experiences of groups and individuals who have historically received little attention in the broader framing of victimology, victims movements and wider society. With a mainstream political discourse underpinned by conceptions of deservingness and idealised constructions of victimhood, many groups and individuals— including sex workers, non-human animals, sexual minorities, families of the convicted, and people from working-class communities are marginalised from important debates. This book provides an intersectional examination of victimisation with a discussion of new and existing forms of victimisation linking to theories. It&nbsp;has four themed sections on: hidden violence and abuse,&nbsp;co-victims and retraumatization, recognizing and restoring hidden and unrecognized victims&nbsp;and non-human victims. It supports the need for greater recognition and understanding of these groups, the ethical implications of current and future policy and practice, and innovations in theory and conceptual debates. It speaks to&nbsp;the disciplines of Sociology, Criminology, and Social Work, and for anyone who works with victims in practice.Dr Ian Mahoney
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology and Deputy Director of the Centre for Crime, Offending, Prevention and Engagement at Nottingham Trent University, UK. His research is currently focused around exploring memetic warfare, and understanding and addressing the harms and impacts of crime and contact with the justice system across diverse groups. Drawing upon Transformative Justice principles he is currently exploring approaches to better understanding societal barriers to effective rehabilitation and reintegration.
 &nbsp;Dr Hind Elhinnawy
 &nbsp;is Senior Lecturer in Criminology at Nottingham Trent University, UK, and Chair of the Critical Criminology and Social Justice Research Group. Her work bridges feminist, anti-racist, and decolonial scholarship with grassroots activism, focusing on marginalised voices and structural inequality. Hind’s research interrogates the politics of recognition, epistemic injustice, and the silencing of minoritised communities—particularly Muslim women, and survivors of institutional harm. Hind’s activism includes a landmark legal case in Egypt that led to changes in family law, securing recognition for single mothers and children born outside wedlock.

Theory, Methods and Evaluation

Crime Prevention

This book offers fresh perspectives on the role of addiction in prior fault culpability by integrating legal, psychological, neuroscientific and philosophical dimensions. Are intoxicated defendants responsible for harms they cause to persons and property when intoxicated? Should they be criminally liable for those harms, even if they act without intention or control? What if their intoxicated state is associated with addiction? Analysing the complex interactions between addiction, intoxication and law, prior fault is addressed from various jurisdictions including predominantly England and Wales, Scotland, and the Netherlands, while also incorporating multiple disciplines, thereby discussing prior fault structures from overarching, non-jurisdictional perspectives. These different disciplines and legal systems are not merely described but closely integrated through co-authored chapters, involving academics from different disciplinary fields and legal traditions. This collection is a thorough resource for students, academics, researchers, and practising lawyers who aim to deepen their understanding of the law's approach towards addiction and intoxication. Moreover, it illustrates the importance of a collaborative approach between different legal traditions and interdisciplinary scientific understanding, thereby laying the groundwork for future legal reforms, informed legal practice, and research.

Comparative Perspectives on Addiction and Intoxication
