Crim Justice Reform +’s, -‘s, unintended consequences

June 14, 2021 By Karl 2 Comments

Criminal justice reform

We heard from both sides of certain 2020's crim justice reform issues last Monday. Below are a couple of samples of the pros and cons of parole reform, one of the many controversial reforms proposed nationwide.After that,  I've included an example of what reformers must consider when proposing and implementing reforms. The example pertains to bail reform, something that shares characteristics with parole reform. The comments and video  describe an unintended consequence of  bail reform in the … [Read more...]

Plea bargains, Prisons, Parole — an after-your-arrest Tutorial with Boston Strangler tie in.

November 23, 2019 By Karl 1 Comment

Plea bargains would not have served Strangler victims' interests.

Am close to finishing my latest book, Privileged Killers, where I take plea bargains and parole board decisions to task. These are two phenomena that've dictated court and corrections culture  for years. Hopefully this tutorial will help  writers, criminology students,  true-crime fans, and others understand these topics. Plea bargains are a win-win often. Suspects get to plead guilty to doing something less serious than what they've done in all likelihood. The joke is it's  like copping to  … [Read more...]

Throw the book at certain rapists in this #meToo era.

May 19, 2018 By Karl Leave a Comment

Headshot of brunette Amber Rose Carlson in glasses, who addresses her rapist and the sentence he deserves.

  Amber Rose Carlson wrote a piece about her rapist and his sentence for the New York Times recently. Besides dealing with rapists and sentencing, she covers many other timely topics in this #meToo era. Life without parole for rapists. These topics include  injustice, male privilege, life without parole, and several others. I've blogged and written about many of them  (for instance, in my forthcoming book,  Four Murders and a Funeral). I include Ms. Carlson's piece here in its entirety. … [Read more...]

Rape, male privilege, sentencing, and punishment.

November 4, 2017 By Karl Leave a Comment

Headshot of brunette Amber Rose Carlson in glasses, who addresses her rapist and the sentence he deserves.

An essay about rape and male privilege that's been widely circulated lately got my attention for sure. Not because so many women have been Weinsteined by Harvey who had gatekeeping power or raped by everyday men who were intimidating. But because I've been addressing similar issues in a book I'm writing. Several  of the real-life murderers in my memoir got away easy just as Amber Rose Carlson's rapist did. Amber Rose Carlson is a doctoral candidate in philosophy at Vanderbilt University who … [Read more...]

Lady w scales peeks from under her blindfold, leading to not-blind justice

After more than a year of planning and reconstruction by my webmaster, my site is better and more interesting (e.g., featuring topics like not-blind justice). Site has new, easier navigation. The site is faster and easier to navigate now. The latter means you can more easily find blogs, info, and resources (including new links, books, promotions, fun quizzes) that interest you.  Just look for several pull-down choices under 9 new menu selections in red at the top of the site. And use , too, … [Read more...]

Will OJ get parole tomorrow? Where and how to watch his hearing.

July 17, 2017 By Karl 1 Comment

Fuhrman covers OJ parole hearing.

I mentioned in a prior blog that the ALCATRAZ EAST crime museum just opened an exhibit around a new acquisition. The item is the White Ford Bronco that carried a frantic and suicidal O.J. Simpson during one of the most famous televised car chases ever. For this reason alone, millions will be tuned in tomorrow to O.J.'s parole hearing. But, as you know, there are many other reasons to tune in.   I'm going to watch because, tho I'm a dispassionate criminologist regarding most topics, I have a … [Read more...]

Casanova Scammer

Casanova Scammer uses “Privilege”

  Privileged Offenders.  Here's yet another take on privileged criminals. They create a "privileged" persona to scam others. I just blogged here about Simon Leviev, the Tinder Swindler, who worked this angle to the max. The Casanova Scammer Brian Wedgeworth seemed to have a … [Read More...]

The Tinder Swindler – a male Anna Sorokin?

  This website is about justice and equity,  and so today it's about the Tinder Swindler. It's only fair that I give equal time to a male who's similar to fraudster Anna Sorokin whom I've blogged about here and elsewhere. I have less info about the the Tinder Swindler —Netflix's name for … [Read More...]

Anna Sorokin deported yet?

Criminal Fake Heiress Sorokin Deported Yet?

Anna Sorokin, whom I blogged about last time and a while before that, proves my assertion that celebs get special "justice." Before our very eyes in recent years, fraudster Sorokin's gone from a shadowy subject of a Vanity Fair piece on her criminal behavior to a privileged celebrity. Her … [Read More...]

Anna Sorokin

Is socialite fraudster Sorokin still a con artist?

  I've written about Anna Sorokin as well as  other imposters and con artists here. And I've also written about innumerable psychopaths on this website. Is Anna Sorokin a psychopath? Here's the question needing to be addressed right off if you want a quick answer to whether Sorokin is … [Read More...]

Discrimination in sentencing for gun/tasar mixup “mistake?”

A judge just sentenced Kim Potter to two years in prison. Is this a case of discrimination in sentencing? Postter did admit to making a gun/tasar "mistake?" Her sentence is less than state guidelines recommend. Potter shot victim, Daunte Wright,  through the heart. While I've blogged and written … [Read More...]
