As Austin Criminal Defense Lawyer blogger Jaime Spencer points out in his introduction to Blawg Review #117, criminal law blogs have been criminally underrepresented thus far in the carnival's history. Spencer organizes his edition around the half-dozen amendments which figure most prominently into criminal defense; highlights include freedom of speech even when no one is listening, the "Defendant is a bad guy" exception to Miranda rules, and the overcriminalization of ordinary juvenile behavior.
For a defense attorney, Spencer is a glutton for punishment; he's already volunteered to host another Blawg Review at his Austin DWI Lawyer blog. For now, though, he'll have to wait his turn; Blawgletter has the honors next week.
