Judge did not disclose authorship of paper until confronted by Senate panel
President Biden’s Supreme Court nominee, Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, acknowledged in a Senate confirmation questionnaire that she was the author of a paper published anonymously that charged the American judicial system was “unfair” to sex offenders.
The paper, which said sex offenders’ punishments had been “excessive,” “unfair and unnecessarily burdensome,” was titled “Prevention Versus Punishment: Toward a Principled Distinction in the Restraint of Released Sex Offenders.”
It was published in 1996 in the Harvard Law Review as a “note.” Jackson did not disclose her authorship until the Senate Judiciary Committee asked her to list published writings as part of her nomination, Just the News reported
She argued that courts had been “unable” to differentiate between “preventive” and “punitive” punishments for sex offenders.
The note was obtained by the American Accountability Foundation.
“[E]ven in the face of understandable public outrage over repeat sexual predators, a principled prevention/punishment analysis evaluates the effect of the challenged legislation in a manner that reinforces constitutional safeguards against unfair and unnecessarily burdensome legislative action,” she wrote.
Sounds to me like she is ready for the BLM movement . She will twist the laws on every turn to suit her needs for the thugs of BLM . What a waste!
Democrat system UNFAIR to AMERICANS !!!!!!
Let a sex offender molest one of HER family members, and see what she says then!
It has been proven over and over again. Sex offenders cannot be “rehabilitated” back into society. They are mentally incapable of being decent and normal people. There is no cure or program to fix that. The only people the judicial system is unfair to is the tax paying Americans who have to pay for these scumbags to sit and rot in a cell, sucking up tax dollars for 30 or 40 years. Just do the world a favor and shoot them in the head like they deserve.
Just laying the groundwork to excuse PedoJoe. One of the reasons behind her nomination.
Plus she clerked for the retiring associate justice they pulled the early retirement notice on.
Plus she’s married to close relative of former Rino Speaker Paul Ryan.
Skids were greased for this marginal judge.
Oh boy, she’s gonna be a winner! You can see right through her already.
