Yoo and Shapiro on Thompkins

| 0 Comments
The WSJ has op-eds by Steven Shapiro of the ACLU and John Yoo of UC Berkeley on the Supreme Court's recent pruning of Miranda in Berghuis v. Thompkins.

Shapiro says what you would expect the ACLU to say. Unfortunately, Yoo doesn't really counter him. Yoo mentions the decision briefly in its criminal procedure context and then goes off on a tangent about the Obama Administration's return to a law-enforcement approach to terrorism rather than a war approach.
