Jim Crow's Last Stand(Updated)
Nonunanimous Criminal Jury Verdicts in Louisiana

Paperback, 216 Pages, Published 2019 by Lsu Press
ISBN-13: 978-0-8071-7237-7, ISBN: 0-8071-7237-5

"A remnant of the racist post-Reconstruction Redeemer sociopolitical agenda, Louisiana’s nonunanimous jury-verdict law permitted juries to convict criminal defendants with only nine, and later ten, out of twelve votes: a legal oddity. On the surface, it was meant to speed convictions. In practice, the law funneled many convicts―especially African Americans―into Louisiana’s burgeoning convict lease system. Although it faced multiple legal ..."

Founded in 1718 by the French, transferred to the Spanish in the 1763 Treaty of Paris, and sold to the United States in 1803, the city’s culture, law, architecture, food, music, and language share the influence of all three countries. This cultural mélange also manifests in the city’s approach to sport, where each game is steeped in the city’s history. Tracing that ..."

It makes the case that in a human society built on artificial constructs, the only demonstrable ethics not part of an imagined community is that of respecting the right to life and contentment, construed for farmed animals as adequate food, space, and other basic amenities, along with ..."

But if a Louisiana defense attorney can't create reasonable doubt in the mind of three jurors, then the defendant will be convicted. Louisiana doesn't obey the rules of Law and Order, and that reality has fundamentally shaped its ability to maintain law and order. I would like to thank Mich ..."
