Re: Law Research
You need to find a law library. When you do, give the librarian the citations. Law schools and courthouses should have the books you are looking for. If you wish to talk about the case you may call 630-257-8280. Good luck.
Re: Law Research
Some law schools have criminal justice clinics that can help but are often bogged down and limited on the numbers of cases they examine. You can simply call the schools to find out whether they have such a clinic. Law libraries are located in law schools and court houses. Librarians should be able to help you find much information. There is also a lot of help on the internet nowadays. Do searches and you'd be surprised the various law sites that may help you in your research. Good luck.
