How the Supreme Court Ignored the Constitution and Enabled Mass Incarceration

Beschreibung

Since the 1960s, the Supreme Court has enabled mass incarceration through rulings that violate constitutional curbs on pretrial detention, coercive plea bargaining, excessive sentences, and other forms of state overreach. Detailing their flaws, Rachel Barkow argues that a Court committed to constitutional rights must overturn these precedents.
