Jefferson describes the elections of judges in Texas as “Broken”. That rings true because it seems that Texas is always shifting from one political party to another whenever the judges should be considered neutral. It is one thing for presidential and governor candidates to represent one party. They have specific laws that they want to put in place and most align with a specific party.

Introduction: This paper discusses the observation of a court session held 6th August 2015, at Coo-ma Local Court, beginning at 9.30am.

During the Cameron Hooker trial, there was a “battle of the experts” in which both the defense and prosecution called upon forensic psychologists as expert witnesses. Expert witnesses are used in cases to provide insight based on there area of expertise. The extensive knowledge they have in there field can hopefully clear up any misconceptions in the case for all those involved.
