Welcome to the CRBW Criminal Procedure video casebook. I made these videos for my Criminal Procedure students and I use them throughout the semester to enhance the traditional written casebook experience.
This casebook is comprised of select capstone cases, each of which provides students with a rich introduction to that particular area of doctrine and legal analysis. Taken together, the videos offer a concentrated immersion into the world of criminal procedure.
There are two Introductory overview videos, and 16 individual case videos, each one accompanied by an annotated PDF of the original Supreme Court decision. Typically, students watch the video and then read the case in preparation for class discussion.
