Thurgood Marshall on Capital Punishment :
A detailed, 3 page analysis of Thurgood Marshall's
philosophical rejection of Capital Punishment. Marshall was
particularly concerned with the "cruel and unusual punishments"
section in U.S. Constitutional Law. It is believed that the
government should be responsible for instilling good values in
its citizens-- and not kill them off when they stray from the
principles of such values. By murdering a criminal, the "eye for
an eye" theory has accomplished nothing-- for it has not
genuinely made them experience self-hate or retribution. No

Charles Manson / The Need For Interrogation : A 9
page
paper that discusses the building of Bugliosi's case based on
interrogation and admissions of witnesses, rather than physical

on corroborative statements that had to be tracked down and
pieced together. Bibliography lists 6 sources. Manson.wps serial
