Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THE SUFFOLK COUNTY SCANDALS INVESTIGATIONS - a Reminiscence is the story of a notable use of the criminal process as a weapon in political warfare, based upon the accounts of the New York Times and the Huntington, N.Y. weekly, The Long Islander, and the recollection of the author. It begins with the relation of how Thomas E. Dewey, in his last term as the Republican Governor of New York, came to bring about for Averell Harriman, his Democratic successor, the creation of the ideal public office for waging political war via the criminal process, that of Commissioner of Investigation. It memorializes conduct of Republican officeholders who deserved the prosecutorial attention they received, and cases of Republican officeholders who did not. It records some interesting conduct, positions taken by and comments of judicial, prosecutorial and political figures, as well as portions of some relevant judicial opinions. Chronicling the events which led to the Republican Party's loss in 1959 of decades of political control of Suffolk County, it features a township zoning hearing and the political consequences of what could have been not unreasonably viewed as its predetermined outcome; the contribution of the formidable Republican town leader, John Hulsen, to the ultimate success of the Democrats' efforts; and, the story of the manipulation of the process of the sale by the county of land for unpaid real property taxes for the benefit of land speculators and a Deputy County Treasurer, and the creativeness of the Commissioner of Investigation in his statements for the press concerning the skullduggery.

Book excerpt: A real-life Mystic River: how a grisly 1970s murder launched the careers of a Long Island detective and his informant--and led to decades of police corruption and brutality. The 1979 murder of 13-year-old John Pius is a stain on the history of Suffolk County, Long Island. It was national news at the time: a young white kid with his whole life ahead of him, killed and trampled and left in the woods. A young detective named Thomas Spota was under intense pressure to solve the mystery. Then a 14-year-old informant named Jimmy Burke came to him with evidence--questionable evidence--that broke the case open. The relationship between Spota and Burke bloomed after the Pius case, and both grew powerful in law enforcement. Over the ensuing years, Spota rose through the ranks, eventually becoming District Attorney. And Burke became first a cop, and then, ultimately, the Chief of Police. And their reign, founded on a scandalous murder with a dubious resolution, was one of extravagant corruption: bribes and coerced confessions, side deals, brutality, and graft. Spota and Burke were brought down in 2014, when Newsday exposed their criminal activity to the public and forced them out of office. Jimmy the King is not only the story of this corruption and its eventual demise, but about the true role of the police department of Suffolk County: to serve the powerful and project strength, while allowing the marginalized to suffer. This powerful and dramatic story is a microcosm of one of the most urgent issues of our times, a book that asks who the law serves, who it protects, and who it leaves out in the cold.

This book was released on 2012-07-20 with total page 2657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Several encyclopedias overview the contemporary system of criminal justice in America, but full understanding of current social problems and contemporary strategies to deal with them can come only with clear appreciation of the historical underpinnings of those problems. Thus, this five-volume work surveys the history and philosophy of crime, punishment, and criminal justice institutions in America from colonial times to the present. It covers the whole of the criminal justice system, from crimes, law enforcement and policing, to courts, corrections and human services. Among other things, this encyclopedia: explicates philosophical foundations underpinning our system of justice; charts changing patterns in criminal activity and subsequent effects on legal responses; identifies major periods in the development of our system of criminal justice; and explores in the first four volumes - supplemented by a fifth volume containing annotated primary documents - evolving debates and conflicts on how best to address issues of crime and punishment. Its signed entries in the first four volumes--supplemented by a fifth volume containing annotated primary documents--provide the historical context for students to better understand contemporary criminological debates and the contemporary shape of the U.S. system of law and justice.
