Abstract
In 2008, prosecutors and defense lawyers were debating a range of issues: red-light video cameras, the constitutionality of the death penalty, eyewitness identification rules, the accuracy of forensic evidence, how to diagnose mental retardation, predictions of future dangerousness and the high costs of establishing innocence. This article is a survey of the substantive developments in criminal law in 2008.
