Description

State v. Sanchez: Case File 3rd Edition Elizabeth I. Boals ISBN 9798886690613

Was Ernesto Sanchez simply in the wrong place at the wrong time, or is he involved in a violent criminal gang? Sanchez acknowledges that he was caught in a gang-related fight in a parking lot in his troubled neighborhood and that he stabbed Patrick Connor, who later died from the injury. Sanchez maintains that he acted in self-defense after Connor struck him with a baseball bat. Witnesses agree that Sanchez was on the ground while Connor stood over him, but what occurred next is disputed—as is Sanchez’s alleged gang affiliation. This distinctive case file centers on gang-related evidence and the use of nontraditional expert witnesses whose expertise is based on lived experience rather than formal academic credentials.

New to the Third Edition:

  • Updated skull sketches reflecting Ernesto’s claim that they represent Día de los Muertos imagery

  • Expanded cultural context on the Day of the Dead and its connection to skull symbolism

Benefits for Professors and Students:

  • Opportunities to examine both implicit and explicit bias and to explore strategies for addressing them in the courtroom

  • A diverse set of witnesses that allows participants to assess the strengths and weaknesses of calling each one

  • Multiple types of exhibits that provide practice in establishing proper evidentiary foundations
