Don’t Count On Luck On St. Patrick’s Day!

By Aja Eiden, Villanova University Class of 2023

March 18, 2021

This week is St. Patrick’s Day! A day known for fun, the color green, and lots of foul play. St. Patrick’s Day, alongside its reputation of promoting Americanized Irish culture, is a day commonly associated with heavy drinking. Stemming from the stereotype that Irish people love of drinking and beer, St. Patrick’s Day is one of the top days of the year that people are arrested for various alcohol related violations. Alongside the Fourth of July and New Year’s, St. Patrick’s Day is among the top annual holidays that drunk driving and alcohol related crimes spike.

Along with drinking under the influence of alcohol, other crimes related to the consumption of alcohol are more common on St. Patrick’s Day than other days of the year. Other alcohol related crimes that tend to be more heavily present on St. Patrick’s Day include being intoxicated in public, assaults done while under the influence of alcohol, urinating in public, and underage drinking. For the sake of consistency, this article will be analyzing the penalties related to these various alcohol related crimes as enforced by the state of Pennsylvania. The penalties related to these crimes very from state to state, each state following its own set of regulations.

In the state of Pennsylvania, the penalty for drinking under the influence (a DUI) contains no minimum jail sentence, a three-hundred dollar fine, no minimum license suspension, and the requirement of an ignition if there is a refusal of a chemical test. Compared to other states, Pennsylvania has more lenient penalties for DUIs as seen by the lack of minimum jail sentence and the lack of license suspension. Additionally, Pennsylvania’s fine of three-hundred dollars as a penalty for a DUI is on the lower end of state’s fines for DUIs, other states like California enforcing fines up to $2,600.

Public intoxication is punishable in Pennsylvania with a five-hundred dollar fine; additionally, a fine up to $1,000 can be distributed for subsequent offences for public urination. Urinating in public also results in the reception of a fine in Pennsylvania, many fines costing up to five-hundred dollars with another five-hundred dollars can be added if it is not cleaned up and thrown away in a proper receptacle.

Like is the case with the other forty-nine states in the United States, the legal drinking age in the state of Pennsylvania is twenty-one. Under the age of twenty-one, it is illegal to buy, consume, transport, or possess alcoholic beverages. The punishment for the consumption of alcohol under the age of twenty-one is Pennsylvania is a fine of five-hundred dollars with any subsequent violations being punishable with fines up to $1,000. Additionally, the use of false identification by someone under the age of twenty-one for the purpose of purchasing an alcoholic beverage is illegal and is punishable by law. This crime is also subject to the issue of a five-hundred dollar fine. This offense is separate from that of the purchase, consumption, procession, or transport of alcohol by someone under the age of twenty-one. If false identification is used by someone under the age of twenty-one for the purpose of purchasing alcohol and that person is then found to have purchased, possessed, consumed, or transported alcoholic beverages, they are liable for both sets of penalties.

In conclusion, while St. Patrick’s Day is commonly associated with drinking, it is also a holiday known for alcohol related crimes. This St. Patrick’s Day, make sure to be safe, drink responsibly, and have fun!

Anyone see a pattern here? Anyone? Bueller?

January 6, 2020

In the 55 years since 1964, Democrats have held the presidency for 27 of those years, while Republicans have occupied the Oval Office for 28 (with Reagan, Clinton, Bush Jr. and Obama each enjoying two full terms). And in decade after decade, the conservative right has tried to paint Democratic administrations as vile cesspits of crime and corruption, while portraying Republican control of the executive branch as the epitome of law-abiding integrity. But is it true? Let's check the scoreboard.

In five years, the Nixon administration saw a total of 76 federal indictments, with 55 convictions brought in and 15 prison sentences doled out. Forty individuals were either indicted or jailed, including Nixon's top two White House advisors, the White House counsel, and his Attorney General/campaign chairman.

As far as St. Ronnie's tenure in office is concerned, here's the relevant quote from Haynes Johnson's book, Sleepwalking Through History: America in the Reagan Years.

By the end of his term, 138 Reagan administration officials had been convicted, had been indicted, or had been the subject of official investigations for official misconduct and/or criminal violations.

These included the secretaries of Interior, Defense, and Labor, plus two national security advisors and an assistant Secretary of State. The overall result: 16 convictions and eight prison sentences.

George W. Bush's administration added to the Republican total by producing 16 indictments, 16 convictions and nine prison sentences, including for vice president Cheney's national security advisor who was later pardoned.

Even Gerald Ford, who served as president less than three years, saw his Secretary of Agriculture go to jail for tax evasion.

Meanwhile, in just four years, Darnold Trump's gang of felons has racked up an astonishing 215 indictments for 35 people on charges ranging from interfering with the 2016 election and hacking emails to lying to investigators and tampering with witnesses. These include his campaign chairman, deputy campaign chairman, national security advisor, and personal lawyer. Of course, that's not counting Trump's own personal crime spree.

And what of the Democrats? Clinton's administration saw one conviction for corruption, a deputy undersecretary for the Air Force who padded contracts, while presidents Lyndon Johnson, Jimmy Carter and Barack Obama recorded no criminal convictions at all. Which makes one whole executive branch official convicted of a crime in two and a half decades of Democratic leadership!

Clearly, there's a pattern to be discerned. If only voters could figure it out.

An onslaught of pills, hundreds of thousands of deaths: Who is accountable?

By Joel Achenbach, Lenny Bernstein, Robert O'Harrow Jr. and Shawn Boburg

July 20 at 7:53 PM

Logan County, W.Va., saw more than 45 million oxycodone and hydrocodone pain pills between 2006 and 2012, according to a DEA database. (Michael S. Williamson/The Washington Post)

The origin, evolution and astonishing scale of America’s catastrophic opioid epidemic just got a lot clearer. The drug industry — the pill manufacturers, wholesalers and retailers — found it profitable to flood some of the most vulnerable communities in America with billions of painkillers. They continued to move their product, and the medical community and government agencies failed to take effective action, even when it became apparent that these pills were fueling addiction and overdoses and were getting diverted to the streets.

This has been broadly known for years, but this past week, the more precise details became public for the first time in a trove of data released after a legal challenge from The Washington Post and the owner of the Charleston Gazette-Mail in West Virginia.

The revelatory data comes from the Drug Enforcement Administration and its Automation of Reports and Consolidated Orders System (ARCOS). It tracks the movement of every prescription pill in the country, from factory to pharmacy .

[Explore The Post’s database: Find the data for where you live]

Retired from the DEA, Jim Geldhof is a consultant for plaintiffs in a lawsuit against the drug industry. (Mark Abramson for The Washington Post)

“This really shows a relationship between the manufacturers and the distributors: They were all in it together,” said Jim Geldhof, a retired DEA employee who spent his 43-year career working on drug diversion cases and is now a consultant for plaintiffs in a massive lawsuit against the drug industry. “We’re seeing a lot of internal stuff that basically confirms what we already knew. It just reinforces the fact that it was all about greed, and all about money.”

The industry has denied that vigorously, blaming criminal doctors who prescribed opioids as if they were candy and individuals who abused the drugs. The industry also contends that the DEA had all the information it needed to stop diversion of pills into the black market.

“The DEA has been the only entity to have all of this data at their fingertips, and it could have used the information to consistently monitor the supply of opioids and when appropriate, proactively identify bad actors,” said John Parker, spokesman for the Arlington, Va.-based Healthcare Distribution Alliance. “Unlike the DEA, distributors have no authority to stop physicians from writing prescriptions, nor can they take unilateral action to halt pharmacies’ ability to dispense medication.”

The DEA declined to comment this past week, citing pending litigation.

It appears that failures mark every point along the supply chain — from manufacturers to distributors to pharmacies to the doctor all too ready to write a script. The epidemic was not something out of sight, behind closed doors, under a bridge. In full view, it intensified and the companies, health care professionals, law enforcement officials and government regulators were unable or unwilling to stop it.

The Post had made public a significant portion of a government database that records the flood of prescription opioid pain pills distributed across the U.S.VIEW GRAPHIC

The Post had made public a significant portion of a government database that records the flood of prescription opioid pain pills distributed across the U.S.

“We have a tradition of trusting companies, and the [government] is kind of weak here,” said Keith Humphreys, a Stanford professor who served as a drug policy adviser to Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. “Here it was misplaced trust.”

The data shows a trend in pill distribution that, according to the lawsuit plaintiffs, can’t be passed off as reasonable therapeutic medical treatment.

The industry shipped 76 billion oxycodone and hydrocodone pills across the country from 2006 through 2012, the period covered by the ARCOS data released this past week . These pills didn’t flow in a steady stream but were more like a flash flood, spiking from 8.4 billion in 2006 to 12.6 billion in 2012. As a point of comparison, doses of morphine, another mainstream treatment for severe pain, averaged slightly more than 500 million a year throughout the seven-year period, according to the data.

[Five takeaways from the DEA’s pain pill database]

The industry was supposed to self-regulate. Companies have an obligation, under the Controlled Substances Act, to report suspicious orders of prescription drugs. The plaintiffs suing the drug companies allege that the incentive structures were tilted in favor of moving more product.

For example, in a filing released Friday, the plaintiffs alleged that Ireland-based drug manufacturer Mallinckrodt gave the sales people in charge of generic opioids “key roles” in investigating suspicious orders of drugs. The compensation scheme “was weighted heavily to favor sales over compliance,” the plaintiffs allege, adding that bonuses for the sale of opioids could exceed six figures.

“In contrast, there is nothing in the record indicating that [national account managers] were evaluated based on their compliance responsibilities” or “ever penalized for failing to stop suspicious orders,” the lawsuit claims.

[Internal drug company emails show indifference to opioid epidemic]

After the release of the ARCOS data, Mallinckrodt said in a statement that the company produced opioids only within a government-controlled quota and sold only to DEA-approved distributors.

As of September 2012, Teva Pharmaceuticals, an Israeli-based manufacturer of generic drugs, didn’t have a suspicious-order monitoring system in place, according to the court filing. The company apparently decided it needed a system, and hired an AmerisourceBergen employee in 2014 to design it. He created a system called “DefOps,” short for “Defensible Operations,” which he admitted in a deposition was designed “to keep Teva out of trouble with the DEA and because it ‘sounded good,’ ” according to the court papers.

From 2013 to 2016, the papers allege, Teva reported only six suspicious orders out of 600,000.

Teva declined to comment Saturday.

The new details have made more nuanced and complex the familiar narrative of the pharmaceutical industry’s role in the drug epidemic. Many Americans knew about the role of Purdue Pharma, which in 1996 introduced the slow-release opioid painkiller OxyContin. The new formulation of oxycodone was heavily marketed by Purdue as being less likely to become addictive because, the company said, it didn’t give patients such a jolt of a high.

Experts trace the epidemic to the appearance of Oxy, its heavy marketing, and its migration into the illicit drug trade along with other opioid painkillers.

[How have opioids affected your community? Share your story.]

The public’s search for accountability has centered on Purdue and its owners, the Sackler family. Protesters gathered last year at the Smithsonian’s Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, as well as other institutions that received support from Sackler family members. Earlier this year, Harvard President Lawrence Bacow rejected a demand by activists that the university remove Arthur M. Sackler’s name from a museum collection, saying that the Sackler family had made the donation to the school before the introduction of OxyContin and noting that Sackler himself had passed away by that point.

In an earlier statement, Purdue denied the claims brought in the lawsuit and said they are based on mischaracterizations and without merit.

“We live in an age when assigning blame has become a national obsession, especially when it comes to the horrors of the opioid crisis,” Jillian Sackler, president of the Dame Jillian and Dr. Arthur M. Sackler Foundation for the Arts, Sciences and Humanities wrote in an op-ed in The Post in April.

Now Purdue is just one character on a crowded stage. During the height of the crisis, from 2006 to 2012, Purdue’s sales represented only 3 percent of the market. It was not even one of the three biggest companies manufacturing the opioids.

At the top were generic drug companies many Americans have never heard of: Actavis, a product of U.S. mergers, and now owned by Teva; Par Pharmaceutical, since acquired by Endo Pharmaceuticals of Ireland; and a generics subsidiary of Mallinckrodt, now known as SpecGx. They manufactured 88 percent of the opioids in those seven years.

Generic drug companies have been on an endless quest for steady profits because the prices of their drugs are unstable and generally declining, said David Amsellem, a managing director at financial firm Piper Jaffray and an expert on specialty pharmaceuticals. He calls these companies “low-market businesses that are looking for pockets of high margins.”

[As lawyers zero in on drug companies, a reckoning may be coming]

That situation has contributed to constant churn in the business. Companies are routinely bought and sold, divisions spun off, names changed. That’s part of the reason the firms responsible for the vast bulk of sales from 2006 through 2012 are virtually unknown to most of the nation. The generic companies don’t promote drugs on television, like the big-brand pharma companies.

“They’re order-takers,” Amsellem said.

The city’s Walmart received more than 3.5 million of the pills in those same seven years, according to the database. (Charles Mostoller for The Washington Post)

Less obscure are the big distributors: McKesson Corp., Cardinal Health and AmerisourceBergen. Also mentioned in the ARCOS data are retailers who distributed drugs. They are some of the most familiar names in America, including Walgreens, CVS and Walmart.

In statements to The Post on Tuesday in response to the release of the DEA database, several drug companies issued broad defenses of their actions during the opioid epidemic, saying they were committed to providing a legal product to legitimate pain patients while combating the diversion of drugs.

The drug epidemic is a case of supply and demand, and the newly released data makes clear that supply was never in doubt. The demand side is a more complex public health issue that brings into play the ongoing challenges of communities where the social fabric has been frayed. The new data shows that pills surged most dramatically into central Appalachia, particularly coal country, and bordering areas where the economy has been depressed.

In rural Virginia, 'ground zero' for America's opioid crisis

Norton, Va. was flooded with 306 pain pills per person per year from 2006-2012, according to previously undisclosed data obtained by The Washington Post.

Many people in those areas have endured hardship and job injuries. They need painkillers, including the powerful kind provided by derivatives of the opium poppy. Almost lost in the national controversy over the opioid epidemic is that some people need them badly. In the 1990s, amid extensive drug industry marketing, the medical community seized on a big idea: that freedom from pain was a fundamental human right. As a result, some of the stigma associated with opioid painkillers, which are cousins of street heroin, dissipated.

Within a decade, the pills became their own self-sustaining industry, a black-market and even street-corner product. The painkillers arrived in bulk at small-town pharmacies. That trend is parallel to a rise in the death rates in those communities. Prescription opioid overdoses have claimed the lives of more than 200,000 people in the United States since 1996.

A crackdown on indiscriminate doctors and pharmacists — commonly known as pill mills — as well as tighter prescription guidelines by the medical community have helped drive down the number of overdoses due to prescription drugs. This past week, in a rare drug-statistic bulletin delivering good news, government officials said the overall number of fatal drug overdoses in the country had dropped 5.1 percent from 2017 to 2018, the sharpest decline involving prescription opioids.

But the drug epidemic has hardly abated. Deaths from fentanyl, the powerful synthetic opioid that is being illicitly manufactured abroad and smuggled into the United States, continue to increase. There has also been a rise in deaths from cocaine and methamphetamine.

Just cutting off the supply of one type of drug, or focusing on treating people with addiction and throwing drug dealers in jail, won’t be enough to solve the underlying problem, said Paula Masters, vice president of population health for Ballad Health, which operates hospitals in some of the hardest-hit areas, including Southwest Virginia.

“All you’re doing is squeezing that balloon. If you only squeeze it one way, all you’re going to do is put the air in the other side,” Masters said.

The accountability question is now being played out in courts across the country. The big event is in Cleveland, where a federal judge is overseeing roughly 2,000 separate lawsuits filed against a rash of drug companies by counties, cities and towns across the country. Opening arguments are supposed to begin this fall in two test cases involving counties in Ohio. Thousands of records remain under seal, but may be released in coming weeks and could include depositions, internal company emails and internal company policies.

The outcome in Cleveland could be a massive, industry-wide settlement along the lines of what happened with the tobacco industry many years ago. But the drug companies have denied wrongdoing. Several executives have testified before a congressional subcommittee under oath that they did not believe their companies contributed to the epidemic.

John Hammergren, then chairman, president and chief executive of McKesson, the nation’s largest drug distributor, testified last year that overprescribing by doctors was the “key driver of the crisis.” He added, “At the same time, there clearly were certain pharmacies in West Virginia that were bad actors that McKesson itself terminated. In hindsight, I would have liked to have seen us move much more quickly to identify the issues with these pharmacies.”

George Barrett, then executive chairman of Cardinal Health, testified: “Pharmaceutical wholesale distributors do not and should not have visibility into the medical judgment or the patients for whom prescriptions are written. However, we can play a role by raising awareness of the dangers of overprescribing, which we are doing.”

The companies have said they remained within established guidelines for opioid distribution. They have argued that state regulators or the DEA should have stepped in if there was a problem.

“The ARCOS data show that distributors have consistently reported sales of opioid-based medications, along with the quantity of the order and the identity of the receiving pharmacy to the DEA. Distributors only recently received access to the full set of data with information about the total shipment of opioid medicines a particular pharmacy received from all distributors,” said Parker, of the Healthcare Distribution Alliance.

The DEA, with limited resources, relied largely on corporate self-regulation.

Some DEA agents and investigators tried to hold the industry accountable, and in 2005 and 2006, as the pill flood was building, they sent letters to drug distributors and manufacturers saying that they needed to comply with federal law and work harder to prevent their pills from being diverted to the black market.

Despite these warnings, diversion continued. The DEA began making cases against some of the biggest drug companies. The industry fought back. Some members of Congress pushed a new, more industry-friendly law, making it harder for the DEA to penalize companies for failing to report suspicious shipments of narcotics.

When companies did face penalties after government investigations, the fines were trivial compared with corporate revenue. The fines were essentially just one cost of doing business.

For example McKesson, the drug distributor, was fined a record $150 million in 2017. Its net income reported that year was $5 billion.

Viola Davis

Viola Davis (born August 11, 1965) is an American actress and producer. She is the only black woman to be nominated for three Academy Awards, winning one, and is the only black actress to win the Triple Crown of Acting. In 2012 and 2017, she was listed by Time Magazine as one of the 100 most influential people in the world.

After graduating from the Juilliard School in 1993, Davis began her career on stage and won an Obie Award in 1999 for her performance as Ruby McCollum in Everybody's Ruby.

Her father was a horse trainer and her mother was a maid, factory worker and homemaker. Her mother was also an activist during the Civil Rights Movement. At the age of two, Davis was taken to jail with her mother after she was arrested during a civil rights protest.

Two months after she was born, her family moved to Central Falls, Rhode Island, with Davis and two of her sisters, leaving her older sister and brother with her grandparents. She has described herself as having "lived in abject poverty and dysfunction" during her childhood, recalling living in "rat-infested and condemned" apartments.

Davis is the second cousin of actor Mike Colter, who is known for portraying the Marvel Comics character Luke Cage.

Education

Davis attended Central Falls High School, the alma mater to which she partially credits her love of stage acting with her involvement in the arts. As a teen, she was involved in the federal TRIO Upward Bound and TRIO Student Support Services programs. When enrolled at the Young People's School for the Performing Arts in West Warwick, Rhode Island, Davis' talent was recognized by a director at the program, Bernard Masterson. Following graduation from high school, Davis studied at Rhode Island College, majoring in theater and graduating in 1988. She was awarded an honorary doctorate in Fine Arts from the college in 2002. After her graduation from Rhode Island, Davis attended the Juilliard School for four years, and was a member of the school's Drama Division "Group 22"(1989–1993).

Career

Davis received her Screen Actors Guild card in 1996 for doing one day of work, playing a nurse who passes a vial of blood to Timothy Hutton in the film The Substance of Fire. She was paid $528.

In 2001, she won the Tony Award and a Drama Desk Award for her portrayal of Tonya in King Hedley II, a "35-year-old mother fighting eloquently for the right to abort a pregnancy." She has also won another Drama Desk Award for her work in a 2004 off-Broadway production of Intimate Apparel by Lynn Nottage.

Davis appeared in numerous films, including three films directed by Steven Soderbergh – Out of Sight, Solaris and Traffic, as well as Syriana, which Soderbergh produced. Viola was also the uncredited voice of the parole board interrogator who questions Danny Ocean (George Clooney) in the first scene in Ocean's Eleven. She also gave brief performances in the films Kate & Leopold and Antwone Fisher. Her television work includes a recurring role in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit, starring roles in two short-lived series, Travelerand Century City, and a special guest appearance in a Law & Order: Criminal Intent episode entitled "Badge".

In 2008, Davis played Mrs. Miller in the film adaptation to the Broadway play Doubt, with Meryl Streep, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Amy Adams. Though Davis had only one scene in the film, she was nominated for several awards for her performance, including a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress.

On June 30, 2009, Davis was inducted into The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. On June 13, 2010, Davis won her second Tony Award for her role as Rose Maxson in a revival of August Wilson's Fences. She is the second African-American woman to win the award, after Phylicia Rashad.

Davis played the role of Dr. Minerva in It's Kind of a Funny Story (2010), a coming-of-age film written and directed by Anna Boden with Ryan Fleck, adapted from the 2006 novel by Ned Vizzini.

In August 2011, Davis played the role of Aibileen Clark, a housemaid in 1960's Mississippi, in the screen adaptation of Kathryn Stockett's novel The Help, directed by Tate Taylor. Davis described her performance in the film as channeling her mother and grandmother saying, "I feel like I brought my mom to life; I've channeled her spirit. I channeled the spirit of my grandmother, and I've kind of paid homage to how they've contributed to my life and the lives of so many people". For her performance, Davis garnered great critical acclaim, and eventually received two Screen Actors Guild Awards, as well as her second Academy Award nomination, which she ultimately lost to Meryl Streep. She also received Golden Globe Award and BAFTA nominations for the same performance.

In 2012, Time magazine listed Davis as one of the most influential people in the world. Also in 2012, Glamour magazine named Davis Glamour's Film Actress of the year. On June 12, 2012, Davis was presented with the Women in Film's Crystal Award by her friend and Oscar rival that year Meryl Streep. On June 25, 2012, The Walk of Fame Committee of the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce announced that Davis was part of the new group of entertainment professionals who have been selected to receive stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2013. On January 5, 2017, Davis received the 2,597th star on the Walk of Fame.

Davis reunited with The Help director Tate Taylor in Get on Up, a biopic of James Brown, playing Brown's mother. Her three-year-old daughter, Genesis also appeared in the movie.

In February 2014, Davis was cast in Peter Nowalk's pilot How to Get Away with Murder (executive produced by Shonda Rhimes for her ShondaLand production company) as the lead character. Her character, Annalise Keating, is a tough criminal defense attorney and professor who becomes entangled in murder plot with her students. Davis describes Keating as messy, mysterious, sexy, and vulnerable and noted the character was the first time a black woman, like herself, had ever been portrayed that way onscreen. It began as a series in September 2014. On September 20, 2015, she became the first black woman of any nationality to win the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series. She received a second Primetime Emmy Award nomination for the role in 2016. In 2015 and 2016 Davis won a Screen Actors Guild Award for Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Drama Series for her role. She has also received nominations from the Golden Globe Awards for Best Actress – Television Series Drama and Critics' Choice Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series.

In 2015, Davis appeared in Blackhat, a Michael Mann-directed thriller film starring Chris Hemsworth. She also appeared in Lila & Evewith Jennifer Lopez. Davis also served as a producer.

In 2016, Davis starred in the courtroom drama Custody, on which she also served as an executive producer, and played Amanda Waller in the film Suicide Squad, an adaptation of a DC Comics series of the same name, and reprised her role as Rose Maxson for the film adaptation of Fences, for which she received her third Academy Award nomination and first win for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress, the Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actress, the BAFTA Award for Best Supporting Actress, and the Screen Actors Guild Award.

Awards and nominations

By winning the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for Fences, Davis became the first black actor to achieve the Triple Crown of Acting: winning a competitive Emmy, Tony and Oscar in acting categories. She is also the first African-American actress and the first woman of color to win five Screen Actors Guild Award.

Personal life

Davis married actor Julius Tennon, in June 2003. They have a daughter, Genesis, whom they adopted as a newborn in October 2011. Davis is stepmother to Tennon's son and daughter from previous relationships.

Davis has remained a booster of her hometown of Central Falls, Rhode Island. In 2016, she attended the groundbreaking of a community health center there. She has also raised and donated money for the city's library and the Central Falls High School.

THE LAW OF AVERAGE

WF THOUGHTS (4/6/21).

We're in the midst of another heavily televised criminal trial. It's happening in Minneapolis, Minnesota. This week, we started the second week of testimony. Every day, I've been watching about 30 minutes at lunch time and another hour in the late afternoon when I do some weight lifting and other exercises.

Derek Chauvin is facing criminal charges arising from the death of George Floyd. At the time of the underlying interaction, Chauvin was a Minneapolis Police Officer and Floyd was a Minneapolis resident. Chauvin restrained Floyd by cuffing his hands behind his back, putting him face down on the street, and kneeling on the back of his neck. Floyd died. Chauvin was fired. The City of Minneapolis reached a $27 million civil settlement with the Floyd family. At this trial, Chauvin is facing three criminal charges arising from Floyd's death. The gist of the charges is that Chauvin unintentionally, or negligently, killed George Floyd.

As a lawyer, I hate televised trials. Because the proceedings are on television, the public expects the lawyers to perform like the lawyers who have been portrayed by outstanding actors like Matthew McConaughey, Gregory Peck, Julianna Margulies, Joe Pesci, Tom Cruise, Calista Flockhart, Sam Waterston, Reese Witherspoon, Andy Griffith, or Raymond Burr. Inevitably, the viewing public is disappointed with the real lawyers and the general reputation of lawyers is further diminished. Lawyers have enough problems. They don't need to take extra abuse because the real-life lawyers on televised trials are mediocre.

Lawyers are no different than any other profession. The folks in the top 10% are real superstars. The folks in the next 20% are pretty good. After that, everybody is mediocre or worse. Let's face it, most people are average. That's life.

You can't make yourself into a superstar lawyer. Similarly, you can't make yourself into a superstar baseball player or a superstar musician. The underlying innate skills are a gift. To reach superstardom, those innate skills need to be enhanced with years of study, experience, experimentation, and hard work. If you don't have the underlying stuff, all the work in the world isn't going to turn you into a superstar.

Championship sports coaches are frequently asked: "How did you get this team to the top?" They all have the same answer: "By constantly competing against teams that were better than us." Doesn't that make sense? You get to the top by facing stiff competition and increasingly difficult competition. That's how you learn. That's how you mature. That's how you gain confidence. If you're a mediocre softball team and you only play against other mediocre softball teams, you're probably going to stay mediocre. To become a superstar, you have to place yourself in an environment that offers very stiff competition and you need to push yourself to the top. That's what separates the superstars from everyone else.

Now, let's apply some of these thoughts to the lawyers who are handling the Derek Chauvin trial.

The prosecution team is led by Matthew Frank. The other key team member seems to be Steve Schleicher. They could be brothers. They look alike. They're both White, they're both 50ish, and they both have "average" builds and appearances. Their mannerisms are similar.

Frank and Schleicher have another thing in common. They both went to the same law school in St. Paul, Minnesota. I looked into the history of the law school. It's a strange story. It's an amalgamation of a few very small law schools that decided to merge. The "big" players in the merger were the William Mitchell College of Law and the Hamline University School of Law. I've never heard of those law schools.

What conclusion can be drawn from the fact that these guys didn't go to a "Top 20" law school like Yale, or Stanford, or Harvard, or Columbia, or the other top names? It means that these guys weren't at the top of the applicant pool when they applied to law schools. According to the academic standards used by the top schools, these guys didn't have the brain power to become superstars. To enhance their own reputations, the top law schools want to produce superstars. They only take applicants who show superstar potential. It's just like our Olympic Training Facilities. They only take athletes that show superstar potential.

Let me give you another data point about the strange law school that trained Frank and Schleicher. (It's now called the Mitchell Hamline School of Law.) U.S. News and World Report ranks all sorts of universities and professional schools. In the most recent law school ranking, the Mitchell Hamline school ranked #141 out of a total of 197 law schools. Thus, it's in the bottom 30% of all law schools. Students at such law schools are not exposed to world class professors who stretch the minds of students. Students at such law schools aren't able to grow by competing with the top law students in the country. It's almost impossible for graduates of such law schools to overcome these initial obstacles and become superstars.

Legal education alone does not make anybody a legal superstar. The next step is experience in a competitive legal environment. That generally means a job, or a series of jobs, in a major metropolitan area where big law firms handle complex legal matters. Superstar lawyers tend to become superstars by working in the metropolitan areas surrounding places like New York City, Boston, Chicago, Dallas, Atlanta, Los Angeles, San Francisco, or Washington D.C. The Chauvin prosecutors didn't go to any of those places to get top notch legal experience. They've spent their entire careers in the Minneapolis area. I'm sure Minneapolis is a nice place. It is not a training ground for legal superstars. It's not a place where great legal minds push each other through competition, and it's not a place where there's steady diet of complex legal matters that force lawyers to constantly expand their skills.

Frank and Schleicher are totally adequate prosecutors. For the reasons set forth above, they’re not superstars. They'd probably be the first to admit that they're not superstars. The viewing public shouldn't expect them to be superstars just because they got stuck with a case that's on national television. Give them a break. They're adequate. There's nothing wrong with adequate.

What about the other guy? The defense lawyer is Eric Nelson. Guess what? Same weird law school. Same 100% Minneapolis career path. Same result. He's an adequate lawyer. He's clearly not a superstar and he'd probably admit it.

So, we have an even match here. There are mediocre lawyers all around. It's always good when there's an even match. People can't say that the outcome was the result of unequal legal talent.

As you watch the rest of this trial, you should be celebrating the fact that it's a fair legal fight. Yes, some of the questioning is disjointed and unfocused. Yes, the examinations lack punch. Yes, the lawyers are boring and they're totally unable to use theatrics to bring life to their story lines. You can't expect superstardom here. Pretend that you're watching a high school baseball game between two relatively equal teams. It's not major league baseball, but it can be an enjoyable experience if you approach the game with reasonable expectations.

It took me a few days to adapt to the mediocre lawyering. Ever since I adjusted my expectations, I'm doing fine. As I watch, I've stopped shouting an endless stream of snide remarks. These guys are doing their best. They've a product of their history. They're totally normal American lawyers. There's nothing wrong with normal. In some ways, "normal" is very comfortable. I wish both sides the best of luck. They have tough jobs. Let's hope that the Jury convicts Chauvin, and that the Judge imposes the maximum sentence.

Top Criminal Appeals Lawyer

Whаt iѕ a criminal dеfеnѕе lаwуеr? He or ѕhе iѕ a lеgаl рrоfеѕѕiоnаl whо organizes a саѕе in оrdеr to rерrеѕеnt a client whо iѕ ассuѕеd of a сrimе. Thеѕе сrimеѕ inсludе ѕеx, drug аnd violent оffеnѕеѕ which аrе thingѕ thаt are nоt approved bу ѕосiеtу аѕ seen in this соuntrу’ѕ laws. Thе jоb nоw оf thе criminal dеfеnѕе lawyer iѕ tо fight fоr thе сliеnt bу defending the client in open соurt in a jurу of thеir рееrѕ. In ѕоmе саѕеѕ, this person is ѕuссеѕѕful whеn the jury givеѕ a verdict оf nоt guiltу. Other times, thе jury will say thаt thе ассuѕеd is guilty.

youtube

If the jurу dоеѕ nоt have a unаnimоuѕ decision, the judge hаѕ nо choice but tо call fоr a retrial. Shоuld there by a mistake mаdе in the triаl such as thе ѕеlесtiоn of thе jurу, thе judgе will ѕау thаt it is a mistrial and once аgаin, bоth sides will hаvе tо start оvеr and рrеѕеnt thеir саѕе. Thеrе are inѕtаnсеѕ where the сriminаl dеfеnѕе lawyer аnd thе рrоѕесutоr don’t hаvе tо ѕеttlе this matter in соurt. Thiѕ mау hарреn as bоth ѕidеѕ hаvе аn agreement аnd this is approved by the judgе. But how dоеѕ thiѕ all hарреn? Firѕt, a сrimе hаѕ tо bе соmmittеd. Law еnfоrсеmеnt аuthоritiеѕ will thеn hаvе tо figurе оut whаt happen and if they have еnоugh еvidеnсе, a ѕuѕресt iѕ аrrеѕtеd. Thе person whо iѕ arrested hаѕ thе right tо remain silent during ԛuеѕtiоning until thеir lawyer is present. If thе реrѕоn саnnоt afford оnе, thеn a lаwуеr will be рrоvidеd ѕо even thоѕе whо dоn’t have money will be properly represented. Thе sixth аmеndmеnt in the bill of rightѕ ѕtаtе that anyone who iѕ arrested hаѕ thе right to a ѕрееdу triаl аnd this has tо bе done whеrе thе crime was соmmittеd. After bеing аrrаignеd, thе сriminаl dеfеnѕе lawyer will nоw conduct аn invеѕtigаtiоn bу interviewing witnеѕѕеѕ, reviewing роliсе rероrtѕ аnd аnу оthеr еvidеnсе that iѕ rеlаtеd to thе case. Thе suspect thаt iѕ charged with thе crime can only be соnviсtеd if thе саѕе presented by thе diѕtriсt аttоrnеу’ѕ оffiсе is vеrу соnvinсing. Thiѕ means thаt a сriminаl dеfеnѕе lawyer саn get a nоt guiltу vеrdiсt bу рutting holes intо the defense оf the prosecution. When thiѕ hарреnѕ, thе сliеnt iѕ freed. Shоuld things go thе оthеr аwау, thе сriminаl dеfеnѕе lаwуеr can make an арреаl tо thе highеr соurt regarding thе lоwеr court’s conviction. Cаn аnуоnе become a сriminаl defense lawyer? A lоt оf еxреrtѕ say no because unlike оthеr specializations in thе practice, ѕоmе find it vеrу intimidаting especially whеn the сliеnt thаt уоu hаvе tо represent is actually guiltу of thе crime. But givеn thаt уоu аrе thаt person’s аttоrnеу, it is уоur duty tо defend thе ассuѕеd to the bеѕt of уоur ability from ѕtаrt tо finiѕh. Given that crime оf all sorts аnd nаturе occur, ѕоmе hаvе set up their own lаw firmѕ that ѕресiаlizе in сriminаl law. Mоѕt whо grаduаtе frоm law ѕсhооl wоrk for the gоvеrnmеnt аnd are оftеn referred to as “public defenders.”

youtube

Whу seek fоr аn арреаl? Dеfеndаntѕ аrе оftеn lеft in dismay аftеr they’re wrongfully convicted, but thеу ѕhоuld be infоrmеd оf the common еrrоrѕ thаt could happen in court thаt has lеd tо thеir wrong rulingѕ: • Overlooking оf evidence iѕ not unсоmmоn in court hеаringѕ, whеrе thе dеfеnѕе evidence iѕ not hеаrd bу the jurу. Evеn thоugh аn арреаl may nоt аdmit to nеw еvidеnсе but it could overcome the negligence оf ��ubѕtаntiаl еvidеnсе аѕ thе саѕе as thе рrооfѕ аrе bеing represented.

youtube

• In thе рrосеѕѕ of рrеѕеnting thе саѕе, the соurt has tо grаnt permission fоr attorneys to рrоvidе evidence in court. Thеrе аrе times whеn ѕuсh аuthоritу iѕ nоt appropriately exercise аnd lеаdѕ to a fаlѕе judgmеnt by thе jurу.

• A рrеviоuѕ attorney соuld have еrrеd in thе presenting thаt саѕе in соurt and deprived the dеfеndаnt frоm attaining an еffесtivе аѕѕiѕtаnсе оf counsel, where the саѕе wаѕ nоt рrореrlу dеfеndеd on bеhаlf of thе client. Before rеԛuеѕting fоr аn appeal, a crucial ѕtер that ѕhоuld аlwауѕ соmе tо mind iѕ to find аid in сriminаl арреаl lawyers. As previously mеntiоnеd, dеfеndаntѕ аrе nоt allowed to bring uр nеw еvidеnсе in соurt, ѕо thеrе lies thе utmоѕt imроrtаnсе on giving оut ѕubѕtаntiаl аnd rеlеvаnt ѕtаtеmеntѕ when rерrеѕеnting the dеfеndаnt’ѕ саѕе. Nеw light hаѕ tо be ѕhеd оn thе саѕе, but many dеfеndаntѕ find it hаrd to continue testifying аftеr hаving tо bеаr the nаmе оf being соnviсtеd. Hence, a сriminаl lаwуеr соuld ѕtер in tо аѕѕiѕt thе dеfеndаnt as they’re once аgаin placed in court.

youtube

Criminal арреаl lаwуеr аrе nоt оnlу trаinеd tо hаndlе thе diffеrеnt proceedings thаt will undergo in thе highеr соurt, but they also hаvе thе аddеd еdgе оf bеing аblе to contest the vеrdiсt. Whеn finding аn appropriate lаwуеr, thеу’rе роrtfоliо should аlwауѕ bе rеviеwеd tо ѕее if they’re experienced in hаndling ѕuсh саѕеѕ. Othеr thаn their раѕt rесоrdѕ, аttоrnеу fееѕ have to be diѕсuѕѕеd tо еnѕurе thаt thеу’rе reasonable; inԛuiriеѕ could bе made with different agencies tо undеrѕtаnd thе common charges whеn hiring the ѕеrviсеѕ оf such attorney. Lаѕtlу, hаving a lаwуеr iѕ nоt a ѕоlutiоn in itself. Cliеntѕ аrе always аdviѕеd to соореrаtе with thеir аttоrnеуѕ either by rеmаining silent in court оr rеviеwing thrоugh evidence whiсh wеrе previously brought to court.
