The 8th edition of Criminal Procedure provides readers with a comprehensive, logically organized introduction to the essence of procedural criminal law. The book is easy to read and meticulous in its presentation of the law, making it the ideal textbook for undergraduate Criminal Justice students.
Key Features of the Text:
• Grounds students in the basic concepts of criminal procedure, stressing the rights of persons who are suspected, accused, or convicted of crimes.
• Includes a wealth of current cases and timely real-world examples that reflect this especially dynamic component of the American criminal justice system.
• Incorporates robust pedagogical features into every chapter, including learning objectives, key terms, discussion questions, and shadow boxes to enhance student comprehension.
This new edition captures the most significant recent developments by addressing state and federal statutes, as well as notable criminal trials and appellate court decisions, with a particular focus on the decisions of the U.S. Supreme Court. Crucial, compelling topics such as the increased spotlight on police use of force, bail reform, civil forfeiture, capital punishment, and other salient issues have been integrated into each chapter to ensure that the book is thoroughly updated to highlight the newest information in the field.
