Too long to go into in detail, but more officials in the justice system need to be elected by the people instead of appointed.
Too many judges are not accountable, and make terribly bad decisions.
Police chiefs need to be elected instead of appointed by a mayor. It would just keep everyone more honest, as long as the elections were legitimate.

a million. eliminate the "shield" regulation that prohibits police and prosecutors from being held legally to blame for planned violations of the regulation and techniques. A prosecuting lawyer, as an occasion, is needed via regulation to teach over all information to the protection. many situations they "by danger" fail to teach over information it fairly is exculpatory. seem at that damn Nifong interior the Duke rape case...he had laboratory information that confirmed not one of the DNA taken to the lab from the accusing sufferer's panties matched DNA from any of the accused...yet no longer in basic terms did he fail to teach that information over, he additionally urged the lab director to no longer communicate of it. 2. it is going to be unlawful for regulation enforcement officers to lie to a suspect until they have been to court docket and gotten a choose's permission to establish a sting operation. in the event that they do lie, then the suspect ought to right this moment bypass unfastened with all costs dropped. I certainly have large comprehend for our regulation enforcement officers...their activity generally demands them to place themselves between us and a bullet. yet there is an previous criminal adage that "the state comes into court docket with sparkling palms"...and suited now, the a number of cops are no longer to any extent further effectual than the a number of sorry scum they look into. 3. i'm quite a libertarian...and can elect to verify all drug use decriminalized. i do no longer have confidence that persons ought to apply drugs...and if somebody drives a vehicle on an identical time as below the impact, they might desire to be severely punished. yet via decriminalizing drugs, we would take the large earnings out of the corporate...which might get rid of particularly some the crime...quite the stress-via murders...that make the "conflict on drugs" greater risky than the medicine themselves.

People who get court appointed lawyers are usually found guilty or plead out. Court appointed laywers are not paid nearly enough to properly defend their clients.

Change the rules for contempt of court. A judge would not be permitted to impose more than a nominal penalty for an alleged contempt of court without a separate jury trial -- before a different judge. At present, the powers of a judge are unlimited.

Instead of years of appeals swift public executons for capital crimes should be the norm. If capital punishment is REALLY enforced attitudes about crime will quickly change.
