As one of just a few judges licensed to try murder cases at the Old Bailey, the author has presided over many of the high-profile cases that all too often grab our attention in dramatic media headlines—for every unlawful death tells a story. But, unlike most of us, a judge doesn't get to turn the page and move on. Nor does the defendant, or the family of the victim, nor the many other people who populate the court room. Peeling apart six dramatic murder and manslaughter cases, Unlawful Killings removes this distinction between 'them' and 'us'.

In 2007, agents of the New York State Petroleum, Alcohol, and Tobacco Bureau (PATB) seized over half a million dollars in untaxed alcohol, drugs, and guns. This takedown, the largest in New York history, led to 87 arrests, the recovery of an unprecedented quantity of cocaine, crack, and marijuana, and captured the attention of law enforcement agencies all around the world. Under Too Long is the story of the PATB undercover team that led this investigation, as seen through the eyes of “Billy the Liquor Guy”.

The United States Supreme Court has numbered nine justices for the past 150 years. But that number is not fixed. With the Democrats controlling the House and Senate during the Biden presidency, they could add justices to the Supreme Court. But would court packing destroy the Court as an apolitical judicial institution? This is the crucial question Stephen Feldman addresses in his provocative book, Pack the Court! He uses a historical, analytical, and political argument to justify court-packing in general and Democratic court-packing more specifically.

Rulers throughout history have used laws to impose order. But laws were not simply instruments of power and social control. They also offered ordinary people a way to express their diverse visions for a better world. Oxford scholar Fernanda Pirie traces the rise and fall of the sophisticated legal systems underpinning ancient empires and religious traditions, while also showing how common people - tribal assemblies, merchants, farmers - called on laws to define their communities, regulate trade, and build civilizations.

Mi chiamo Cristian Baldassarre, il mio sogno era quello di diventare un noto Avvocato pensando in questo modo di poter aiutare gli altri... ma iniziando a frequentare le aule dei Tribunali, ben presto capii che per essere davvero utile alle persone, dovevo intervenire prima, molto prima...Non provenendo da una famiglia di Avvocati, ho dovuto buttare giù parecchi bocconi amari e sopportare l'umiliazione di concorrenza spietata e senza scrupoli, ma questo non mi ha impedito di portare avanti il mio progetto di "Tutela Globale".

Forensic science is in crisis and at a cross-roads. Movies and television dramas depict forensic heroes with high-tech tools and dazzling intellects who - inside an hour, notwithstanding commercials - piece together past-event puzzles from crime scenes and autopsies. Likewise, Sherlock Holmes - the iconic fictional detective, and the invention of forensic doctor Sir Arthur Conan Doyle - is held up as a paragon of forensic and scientific inspiration - does not "reason forward" as most people do, but "reasons backwards."

In the early morning of March 6, 1993, an intense fire broke out in a tiny nursery. Sixteen minutes later, firefighters had extinguished the blaze, only to reveal a room burned so severely, everything was virtually unrecognizable. Then, they were told to look for a baby. What they discovered looked more like a monster from a horror film; the small skull had been incinerated, and the legs and arms were nothing more than charred stumps. The only identifiable human feature was the baby's genitals, covered in what remained of his diaper.

Sofia Ali-Khan’s parents emigrated from Pakistan to America, believing it would be a good country. With a nerdy interest in American folk history and a devotion to the rule of law, Ali-Khan would pursue a career in social justice, serving some of America’s most vulnerable communities. By the time she had children of her own—having lived, worked, and worshipped in twelve different towns across the nation—Ali-Khan felt deeply American, maybe even a little extra American for having seen so much of the country.

Having experienced some business events, my opinion of the financial and legal profession totally deteriorated. This caused me to study constitutional law, starting with the Magna Court of England, the United States Constitution, the Canadian Constitution and Bill of Rights, and lastly the Alberta Rules of Court. I had the notion that my personal character might be lacking, so I listed all the laws of the scriptures since "sin is the transgression of the law".

Il 10 dicembre 1948 l'Assemblea Generale delle Nazioni Unite approvò e proclamò la Dichiarazione Universale dei Diritti Umani, il cui testo integrale ascolterete qui di seguito. Dopo questa solenne deliberazione, l'Assemblea delle Nazioni Unite diede istruzioni al Segretario Generale di provvedere a diffondere questa Dichiarazione in tutto il mondo. Così il testo fu pubblicato e distribuito non soltanto nelle cinque lingue ufficiali dell'ONU (cioè cinese, francese, inglese, russo e spagnolo), ma anche in quante altre lingue fosse possibile usando ogni mezzo a disposizione.
