In pursuit of the war on drugs, changes had been made to the nature of law enforcement and prosecution. Law enforcement have now been more empower with these new policies seem to have diminish civilians rights, such policies gave law enforcement power to violate third and fourth amendment. “Using general warrants, British soldiers were allowed to enter private homes, confiscate what they found, and often keep the bounty for themselves. The policy was reminiscent of today’s civil asset forfeiture laws.”(Balko, R, 2013) The civil asset forfeiture statute is an asset seizure of possessions that are alleged proceeds from criminal activity. Criminal activity over the decades had developed and more organized. Criminals would get their mandatory minimum sentence and the crime enterprise would just continue, but legislators’ passed a statute to dismantle entire criminal organizations and it’s known as Racketeer Influenced Corrupt Organizations or R.I.C.O. Passed in 1970 it was used in the prosecution of Sicilian mafia in New York city. Instead of prosecuting criminals individually such as solders and capo, it was effective in shutting down entire criminal organizations. R.I.C.O statute appeared to be effective on the war on drugs. The combination of the two policies provided incentives to battle the war on drug. Assets were disseminated among various law enforcement departments, putting more officers on the streets, obtaining newer police vehicles and countless equipment for law

In order to determine and validate the grade of the offense as grand larceny, the value of the bobblehead must at least be the value of the statutory amount stated in the Virginia Code §18.2-95(ii). The burden of the Commonwealth is to prove that the object in question satisfies this requisite value beyond a reasonable doubt. Parker, 489 S.E.2d at 482. The object of larceny meets the statutory amount required for a charge of grand larceny if the fair market value of the object in question, “not the entire property for which it is a part,” is equal to or greater than $200 at the time and place of the theft; however, the opinion testimony of the owner of the stolen goods and the original purchase price from a reasonable time prior, may be admissible, considering “due allowance for elements of depreciation.” See Robinson v. Commonwealth, 516 S.E.2d 475, 476 (Va. 1999); Parker, 489 S.E.2d at 482, 484, 483; Lester v. Commonwealth, 518 S.E.2d 318, 323, 322 (Va. Ct. App. 1999)

1) The Court said that the picketing pertained to a matter of public concern because their signs were stating issues regarding the moral conduct of the U.S. as a whole and the fate of these moral judgements. The Court stated that Phelps and his followers were speaking on matters of public concern on public property and therefore was entitled to the protection under the First Amendment.

Larceny is defined as the wrongful taking and carrying away of the personal goods of another from his or her possession with intent to convert them to the takers own use. To bluntly say it, larceny is stealing from others. No matter what the motives or reasons behind stealing are, it is still wrong. I imagine there is a multitude of motives for someone to convince himself or herself that it is worth the risk to steal something. Some other people might also not have the conscience to feel wrong for stealing. A large part of this is because people do not understand who or what they are harming when they steal. It is very common to become self-indulged and only worry about your problems. Even after being caught someone might only feel

This case study revolves around the United States of America v. Robert Durandis, Donald Charles, Gilbert Pierre-Charles, Manual Reyes-Gonzalez case, which entails the crime of conspiracy to commit credit card fraud via the use of access devices. An access device is defined as “any card, plate, code, account number… or other means of account access that can be used, alone or in conjunction with another access device, to obtain money, goods, services, or any other thing of value, or that can be used to initiate a transfer of funds” (LII, n.d.). The series of events occurred from November 23rd, 2013 till July 24, 2014; the defendants conspired and devised a plan to commit fraud using counterfeit access devices to obtain a value earning of more than one thousand dollars (United States of America v. Robert Durandis, et al, 2014). The manners and means of the defendants to

Civil forfeiture is the ability of a state or federal police authority to, “seize and keep property that is suspected of involvement in criminal activity” (Krause, 2010). It exists under the legal fiction that things in addition to people can be found guilty of crimes. Because property receives very little protection it often has no way to fight the charges against it. While the intent is generally to prevent crimes involving the trade and trafficking of narcotics it has created such ridiculous cases as United States v. $32,820.56, In the Matter of Seizure of $446,651.11, State of New Jersey v. One 1990 Ford Thunderbird, & United States v. 434 Main Steer, Tweksbury, Mass (End Forfeiture, 2014). Interestingly enough when assets are acquired via civil forfeiture, the police department is at sometimes will to sell and spend the profits any way that is sees fit. Often times this has created instances where this practice has been called policing for profit. When looking at what is a good law and what is a bad law, this law is an extreme example of a law that is unreasonable and should be modified.
