Description In this second book from his popular Illustrated Guide to Law web series, Nathaniel Burney sets out to explain the law of Criminal Procedure in comics.
Where the first book on Criminal Law focused on what you are allowed to do, this volume begins the discussion of what the police are allowed to do.
Starting with the absolute basics (what is criminal procedure?), the reader is soon immersed in the exclusionary rule, the tricks of the Fourth Amendment and the traps of the Fifth.
Along the way, there are deep discussions of policy explaining why the law is this way, and legal history explaining how it got like that.
Volume I contains the first three chapters: So What? Meet the Players and Police vs.
Privacy, and also includes a sixteen-foot-long Fourth Amendment Flowchart to cut out and stick on your wall.
Volume II will contain the law of self-incrimination, eyewitness identifications, and a Fifth Amendment Flowchart.
The Illustrated Guide to Criminal Procedure is a complete law school course written and illustrated with clarity, humor, and passion.
About the author Nathaniel Burney studied law at Georgetown University, where he was an editor of the American Criminal Law Review and a student practitioner defending juveniles in the District of Columbia.
In between classes and the library, he worked at the Supreme Court as personal assistant to retired Chief Justice Warren Burger, and jammed in a bar band called The Ambulance Chasers.
After law school, he moved to New York City to be a prosecutor in the Manhattan DA's office.
After several years in Special Narcotics, he moved on to the famed Rackets Bureau, where he investigated political corruption and cleaned up a mafia-controlled labor union.
Meanwhile, he lectured on criminal law at New York City schools and coached student mock trial teams.
He did not play in a band, which was probably for the best.
In 2006, Mr.
Burney returned to the defense side, focusing mostly on complex cases like wiretaps, se.
