The book John Grisham calls "a clear and poignant indictment of criminal injustice in America" Called "a passionate and eye-opening behind-the-scenes account of the world of criminal justice and the lives impacted by the system's injustices" by Booklist, The Fear of Too Much Justice, by renowned death penalty lawyer Stephen B. Bright and legal scholar James Kwak, offers a heart-wrenching overview of how the criminal legal system fails to live up to the values of equality and justice. It chronicles innocent people convicted of crimes and condemned to death because of their race and poverty, racial discrimination in jury selection that perpetuates all-white juries, people with mental disorders who are locked up in jails and prisons instead of given the treatment they need, poor people who are processed through courts in assembly-line fashion with no attention to them as individuals, and courts that act as centers of profit whose main purpose is to raise money by imposing fines on poor people who cannot afford them and jailing them in debtors' prisons when they cannot pay. In this "invaluable resource" (Publishers Weekly), renowned death penalty lawyer Stephen B. Bright and legal scholar James Kwak also offer examples from around the country of places that are making progress toward justice and call for courts and legislatures to overcome their fear of too much justice and provide a full measure of justice for everyone.
The New York Times bestselling author brings his trademark legal acumen and passionate snark to a brilliant takedown of ten incredibly bad pieces of legislation that are causing way too much misery to millions While Elie Mystal may not endorse any laws created before all Americans were entitled to vote for our lawmakers, in Bad Law he hones in on ten of what he considers the most egregiously awful laws on the books today. These are pieces of legislation that are making life worse, not better, for Americans, and that--he argues with clarity, eloquence, and paradigm-shifting legal insight--should be repealed completely. On topics ranging from abortion and immigration to voting rights and religious freedom, we have chosen rules to live by that do not reflect the will of most of the people. With respect to our decision to make a law that effectively grants immunity to gun manufacturers, for example, Mystal writes, "We live in the most violent, wealthy country on earth not in spite of the law; we live in a first-person-shooter video game because of the law."But, as the bestselling author of Allow Me to Retort points out, these laws do not come to us from on high; we write them, and we can and should unwrite them. In a marvelous and original takedown spanning all the hot-button topics in the country today, one of our most brilliant legal thinkers points the way to a saner tomorrow.

This book explores criminal sentencing as a political, legal and social process, setting out a democratic account of sentencing in common law jurisdictions. Taking sentencing as a case study of public decision-making in which judges manage public interests, often through value-laden and discretionary choices, it draws on a particular vision of deliberative democracy. This is a vision on which the legitimacy of sentencing decisions is shown to hinge on processes of public reasoning, listening, and deliberation aimed at justifying sentences. The book thereby contributes to the broader project of grounding criminal justice, and the state power that enforces it, within political theory, and aligns criminal scholarship with a leading perspective on public governance.Over the course of its chapters, the book unpacks and illustrates the demands of deliberative democracy for both sentencing participants and the legal frameworks that envelop them. This occurs with reference to the law, scholarship, and practices of various jurisdictions-primarily Canada, England and Wales, and the United States-and engagement with a range of issues: the public character of criminal wrongs and responses, mandatory sentencing provisions, sentencing rationales, lay input, and sentencing guidelines. The book offers a compelling account of criminal justice's public nature, outlines a framework of legitimacy for the everyday politics of sentencing courts, and provides a coherent foundation for more effective sentencing. In doing so, it shows the moral and practical value of taking democracy seriously and lays groundwork for both reform and future research in criminal theory.
