More about plea bargains and our system

The particular "genius" of plea bargaining is that it seems to allow defendants a chance to reduce harsh sentences while locking them into a system that is stacked against them, says attorney Dan Canon in a conversation with The Crime Report about his new book.

Interesting historical perspective on plea bargains.

One of the most important Supreme Court decisions for our judicial system.

One of the most important Supreme Court decisions for our judicial system.

On March 18, 1963, unanimously decided Gideon v. Wainwright, one of the landmark cases of the modern era.

"If an obscure Florida convict named Clarence Earl Gideon had not sat down in prison with a pencil and paper to write a letter to the Supreme Court; and if the Supreme Court had not taken the trouble to look at the merits in that one crude petition among all the bundles of mail it must receive every day, the vast machinery of American law would have gone on functioning undisturbed. But Gideon did write that letter; the court did look into his case; he was re-tried with the help of competent defense counsel; found not guilty and released from prison after two years of punishment for a crime he did not commit. And the whole course of legal history has been changed."
