Tanay provides a 'behind-the-scenes' view of our criminal justice system and clear examples of the rampant injustice that he has witnessed. He argues that the potential for injustice is built into our legal system in the form of incompetent lawyers, the imbalance of resources between the pricey defense lawyers hired by large corporations in civil trials and the inexperienced lawyers often hired by plaintiffs, and the political concerns of elected judges and prosecutors. 606 $aCriminal justice, Administration of$zUnited States 606 $aForensic psychiatry$zUnited States 606 $aForensic psychiatrists$zUnited States 608 $aElectronic books. 615 0$aCriminal justice, Administration of 615 0$aForensic psychiatry 615 0$aForensic psychiatrists 676 $a345.73/05 700 $aTanay$b Emanuel$0906652 701 $aSimon$b Robert I$0623517 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910459276603321 996 $aAmerican legal injustice$92027796 997 $aUNINA
