Crimes that Shaped the Law

By
ALLA is proud to collaborate with LexisNexis to present the following webinar:

Crimes that Shaped the Law by David Field.

The law cannot remain static, but must adjust to reflect the changing society that it serves. From time to time, criminal cases arise that dramatically dictate the need for alterations to the law. Those developments often occur, but what of the fates of those whose misfortunes were the catalyst for change? The stories of some of these unwitting — and unwilling — pioneers are collected in this fascinating book and we have the pleasure of hearing from the author on his research in this area of law.
