History of The Miranda Rights and Their Importance

On June 13, 1966, the Miranda Rights were established as a result of the arrest and trial of Ernesto Miranda in 1963.  Miranda was arrested under the suspicion of sexually assaulting a woman in Phoenix.  After the arrest, officers may have coerced a confession out of Miranda while interrogating him. This confession was used as […]

The Proper Protocol For Selling Your Firearm

There is a lot of red tape separating the citizens of New Jersey from firearms.  However, this is not necessarily a negative aspect of the state’s government.  New Jersey’s strict rules and guidelines have caused the state to rank in the top five in terms of safety and gun related deaths per capita.  The laws […]

When Will NJ Legalize Recreational Marijuana Use?

Since legalizing the recreational use and taxing the sales of marijuana, Colorado has seen an enormous growth in tax income.  In just the first three months of 2015 alone, Colorado has collected over 7 million dollars for the state’s education system.  After seeing how successful Colorado has been with the legalization of marijuana, the citizens […]

DUI Checkpoints (Part 2)

The closest the New Jersey Appellate Division or Supreme Court came to addressing the legality of DUI checkpoints was in the 2005 case of State v. Badessa, 185 N.J. 303. The issue before the Court was whether evidence gathered by the police after an unconstitutional motor vehicle stop should have been excluded in a prosecution […]

DUI Checkpoints (Part 1)

The case that remains controlling law in New Jersey regarding the legality of DUI checkpoints is the 1990 United State Supreme Court case of Michigan Department of State Police v. Sitz, 496 U.S. 444.

Toms River—Increase in Drug Crime

There is no doubt that New Jersey is faced with a serious drug problem that is only intensifying. At first glance, the Garden State’s statistics can be misleading. In Ocean County, drug-overdose deaths fell from 121 in 2013 to only 86 in 2014. This might suggests drug crime and usage is decreasing. Or, it may […]
