    Shawn Kemp Goes Hot! Self-Defense or Unlawful Defense of Property? Mar 16, 2023
    Show notes

    Retired basketball player All-Star and current cannabis entrepreneur Shawn Kemp got into a gunfight outside a Tacoma shopping mall last week after his efforts to recover the cell phone stolen from his car resulted in an exchange of gunshots.
    Although Kemp was originally arrested at the scene after the other party fled, he appears to have promptly and prudently lawyered up, and has now been released based on his claim that he shot in self-defense.
    Today we'll explore the legal dynamics and practical issues around Kemp's decision to seek recovery of his stolen cell phone to the point of getting himself into a gunfight.

    Road Rage Charges Dropped! Is Stand-Your-Ground to Blame? Mar 13, 2023
    Show notes

    In June 2021, Eric Popper was involved in a road rage incident while driving down I-95 in the Miami FL area. He would ultimately empty his pistol through the passenger window and windshield of his car, in an act he would characterize as self-defense. Popper would be arrested and charged with the felonies of aggravated assault and firing a deadly missile.
    Last week the Miami-Dade State Attorney's Office announced it was dismissing charges against Popper. Popper's defense counsel is crediting Florida's "Stand-Your-Ground" defense for this favorable outcome.
    But could stand-your-ground have played any role in this use-of-force event? Might the State Attorney's Office have political reasons for dropping these charges? Was Popper arguably criminally reckless in his conduct?

    Utah Traffic Stop Goes Loud! Analysis of Chase Allan Shooting! Mar 11, 2023
    Show notes

    On March 1, 2023, a Farmington UT police officer pulled over 25-year-old Chase Allan for failure to display proper registration tags on his BMW automobile. Within just a few minutes, Allen would die in a hail of bullets fired by five officers.
    In this LIVE show we take a look at some media reports of this report, some initially released body-worn camera footage from the officer who first made the stop, and finally work through the 30-minute presentation made by the Farmington UT police chief to the media this past Wednesday.

    My Alec Baldwin MEA CULPA! Mar 08, 2023
    Show notes

    A week or two ago, while guesting on Rekieta Law during our relentless and arduous coverage of the Alex Murdaugh trial, news broke that #alecbaldwin had been relieved of the sentencing enhancement charge that the NM prosecutor had brought against him on top of the involuntary manslaughter charge.
    I had taken a quick look at the relevant law just before coming onto Rekieta Law, and while waiting for the Murdaugh trial to start up I opined that it seemed to me that the enhancement certainly should have been dismissed as against armorer Hannah Guttierez-Reed, but that dismissing the enhancement against Baldwin did not seem legally necessay.
    I. WAS. WRONG! I meant to get to this earlier, but it's been hell catching up on stuff since Murdaugh's conviction. In any case, I'm here today to shout my "mea culpa," and share the history of the sentencing enhancement statute that made this a messy affair.

    A Critical View of Self-Defense Law Scholarship Mar 06, 2023
    Show notes

    On February 14, 2023, Dr. T. Markus Funk, PhD, published a 10-page paper entitled "Busting the Durable Myth That US Self-Defense Law is Uniquely Harsh." That paper is the subject of today's LIVE show.
    Dr. Funk is a former federal prosecutor, US State Department Section Chief, and has taught at such esteemed academic institutions as Northwestern University, the University of Chicago, the University of Colorado, and Oxford University.
    Despite those impressive credentials, however, this paper is very much a mixed bag in terms of its strength of understanding of self-defense law. This is not a particular criticism of Dr. Funk--in my experience virtually all of the legal scholarship on self-defense law is pretty awful, regardless of author.
    Today we'll take the opportunity to apply a critical eye to Dr. Funk's "Busting the Durable Myth" paper, in part as a cautionary tale to not assume that a scholarly paper on self-defense law is of the quality one might like, even if the author has the most impressive of academic credentials.
