12th Annual Wiley A. Branton Symposium

I presented my paper Restoring Community Dignity Following Police Misconduct, which will appear in the Howard Law Journal as part of the symposium issue. The paper's central claim is that police misconduct enacts a form of dignity taking as officers act against the body or assets of the victim without a legitimate public interest, while dehumanizing them. Our current remedies do not account for this and therefore must be increased.
