Crump, et al. Criminal law : cases, statutes, and lawyering strategies.
2nd ed. LexisNexis/Matthew Bender, c2010. KF9218.C765
2010 This
casebook, co-authored by Professor David Crump, covers the traditional
criminal law subjects such as the elements of crimes, the basic crimes,
defenses, and sentencing, but it also has some unique features including
explanations and introductions to complex material, a problem approach, and
an emphasis on reading statutes. The second edition offers updated
cases and expanded coverage of strict liability, the Model Penal Code’s
homicide provisions, sexual assault, and defenses. |
