III. PUBLISHING AND TECHNOLOGY
The Criminal Justice Section’s publications continue to do an outstanding job of monitoring
emerging trends in criminal justice to ensure that our members remain informed.
The Section’s quarterly publication Criminal Justice, once again, did an outstanding job of
addressing a broad range of criminal justice issues including: the impact technology is having
on the 4 th Amendment; an examination of the National Academy of Sciences report on Forensic
Science; post‐convictions practices and representation from both the defense and prosecutor
perspective; charging practices Migratory Bird Treaty Act by the Department of Justice; the use
of alternatives to incarceration under the Federal Sentencing Guidelines. [See also Criminal
Justice Magazine Editorial Board report on page 41.]
In addition to the Criminal Justice Section Newsletter, the Section office again published The State
of Criminal Justice 2010 (edited by Myrna Raeder), an annual publication from authors from
across the criminal justice field who provided essays on topics ranging from cybercrime to
juvenile justice to DNA. The Section office also published Careers in Criminal Law, edited by
Ellen Brotman.
White Collar Crime Committee leaders Gary Collins and David Seide published Warning the
Witness: A Guide to Internal Investigations and the Attorney‐Client Privilege (ABA 2010), drawing on
the work of the Upjohn Warnings Task Force and the assistance of dozens of other lawyers in
the Criminal Justice Section. Additional books published during 2009‐2010 include the Spanish
version of the Citizenship Flow Chart Poster (Bob McWhirter) and The Fourth Amendment
Handbook, 3rd Edition.
[For additional report on book publishing activities, see the Book Board report on page 40.]
The online publications – such as the monthly Section E‐News and various committee
newsletters – continue to serve as great resources to members and the general public.
