Note that home gambling falls under some country's national laws and some country's state laws. Depending on the region, some jurisdictions offer more detailed explanation of the act of home gambling than others. Alaska Criminal Law Article 2 (Gambling Offenses) in Chapter 66 (Offenses Against Public Health and Decency) states that it is an offense to engage in unlawful gambling, BUT that it is an "affirmative defense" to prosecution for the person to claim having been part of a "social game". A "social game" is defined as gambling in a home where no house player (barring Home Craps and other home casino games), no house bank, and no house odds exist, and where there is no house income (rake) from the operation of the game. No House and no rake means that home gambling is a defense against unlawful gambling, and legal in the state of Alaska.
Extractions: Vol. 15, Issue 1 Can We Do Without Juvenile Justice? By Jeffrey A. Butts To satisfy constituent demands for stronger crime policies, elected officials throughout the U.S. are gradually dismantling the juvenile justice system and replacing it with a pseudocriminal system, one that emphasizes mandatory sentences and formal, adversarial procedures. Large portions of the juvenile court's original caseload have already been re-assigned to the criminal court. Is the separate, juvenile justice system still feasible? If not, what can replace it? Policymakers need to confront these questions, and they need innovative answers. New policies should aim for more than simply abolishing the juvenile court's delinquency jurisdiction and sending all young offenders to conventional criminal courts. A compelling argument can be made for abolishing the juvenile justice system, or more specifically, abolishing delinquency, the idea that young offenders aren't fully responsible for their behavior and should be handled in a separate court system. Abolishing delinquency is not the same thing as abolishing the entire juvenile court. Even if lawmakers ended the juvenile court's jurisdiction over criminal law violations, the juvenile court could continue to handle other types of cases (e.g., abused and neglected children, truants, curfew violations). In fact, youthful offenders could continue to be handled by the same judges in the same courtrooms that handle them now, but the courts would operate as youth divisions of a criminal court using criminal procedures under the criminal code.

Extractions: Back to the Oklahoma City Archdiocese Page Abuse of Minors Pastoral Response Hotline ARCHDIOCESE OF OKLAHOMA CITY POLICY REGARDING THE ABUSE OF MINORS BY CHURCH PERSONNEL Children are among our very greatest gifts from God. They are entrusted to their parents, families, and churches to be educated and formed in the ways of Christ and His Church. Indeed the call to share the Faith with our children is among the most sacred duties of the clergy and lay faithful alike. It is also true that children are vulnerable and must be protected from evil. Our churches have been viewed as safe places and Catholics have placed a sacred trust in their clergy and lay ministers. For this reason we are appalled and deeply anguished when we learn that this sacred trust has been violated by clergy or lay ministers who have abused children entrusted to their care. In the years that this policy has been in force it has evolved as our understanding and awareness of sexual abuse of minors has evolved. What was once thought to be a rare if not unheard of crime has now proven to be a far more prevalent and complex evil in our world. Our sincere and heartfelt apology for past crimes, for past failures to respond effectively and for failures to initiate appropriate preventative measures requires us to develop and update policies that address these issues. We must note too that efforts at preventing abuse of minors are more fundamental than this policy which outlines our response to allegations of abuse. For this reason we ask that all Catholics work aggressively with Church leadership in their parishes and in our Archdiocese in those efforts aimed at preventing abuse. Cooperating with tasks such as reference checks, background screening, and following appropriate guidelines and policies when dealing with children are all of the greatest importance. However, when efforts at prevention fail us we need a clear and consistent approach to respond appropriately to an actual allegation of sexual misconduct.

Extractions: Why is it a STATE Computer Crimes Code (isnt federal law better?)? The United States of America has laws that exist at two entirely distinct levels: federal law and state law. See, e.g., NGA: Principles for State-Federal Relations of the Bill of Rights of the U.S. Constitution; See generallly National Conference of State Legislatures Federal laws apply throughout the entire geographical nation; state laws only apply in the geographic territory of each state. The state of Oklahomas laws, for example, only apply to conduct and/or persons located within the state of Oklahoma at the time an offense was committed and/or at the time the offender is prosecuted. For many years, federal law has been used to address new problems that arise in the United States. In the 1930s, for example, Congress adopted a federal kidnapping statute - popularly known as "the Lindbergh Law" which was designed to let federal authorities step in and pursue kidnappers once they had crossed a state border with their victim.

The Court upheld a 1999 decision by Frances highest court in the case of Vo v. France . The Center for Reproductive Rights filed an amicus brief with the Court, arguing that granting a fetus the right to life would allow legal claims that favor the rights of a fetus over those of a pregnant woman. In 1991, a French doctor negligently ruptured the amniotic sac of Thi-Nho Vo, a 36-year-old woman who was five months pregnant. The doctor had mistaken her with another patient seeking the removal of a contraceptive coil. His negligence forced an emergency abortion and Vos loss of her fetus. The French Court of Cassation ruled that the doctor could not be charged with unintentional homicide because the unborn fetus was not considered a person entitled to protection under Frances criminal code. Vo then took the case to the European Court, arguing that the European Convention on Human Rights guarantees all persons the right to life, and that this guarantee applies to fetuses. The European Court refused to extend the right to life to unborn fetuses. It reasoned, "firstly, that the issue of such protection has not been resolved within the majority of the Contracting States themselves and, secondly, that there is no European consensus on the scientific and legal definition of the beginning of life." The Court further noted that "the life of the foetus was intimately connected with that of the mother and could be protected through her."

Extractions: September 28, 2004 INTRODUCTION Mr. President, the recent CBS incident involving the record of President Bush's service in the Texas Air National Guard sheds light on the need for a federal statute generally criminalizing the forgery of federal government documents. I believe that when it comes to crimes involving the fabrication of federal documents or writings, the federal government has an obligation to step in and show the offenders there are serious consequences. Many experts initially doubted the authenticity of the memos in question, which negatively and falsely characterized President Bush's time in the Texas Air National Guard. We now believe these memos were created on a modern word-processing computer, rather the 1970s era typewriter as alleged in the original CBS story. Lieutenant Colonel Jerry Killian was George Bush's commanding officer during his service in the Air National Guard in the 1970s. Unfortunately, Lt. Col. Killian passed away in 1984 and therefore could not defend his records. However, Colonel Killian's secretary, Marion Knox, typed all of his correspondence between 1956 and 1979. Referring to the memos in question she said, "I know I didn't type 'em." It is clear that the documents CBS shared with American voters were more than suspect. After the fact-since CBS could not verify its reporting-I am pleased to see that CBS has belatedly retracted its story.

Extractions: As a result, two laws were passed: the Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act and the Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act. These two laws substantially revise Title 8 of the U.S. Criminal Code, a section that governs, among other things, the responsibilities and operations of the federal Immigration and Naturalization Service. Both before 1996 and since, all aliens classified as "aggravated felons" were subject to deportation. The laws changed the definition of what constitutes an aggravated felony. They also stripped federal immigration judges of all discretion in those cases and made the deportation of aggravated felons mandatory.
