Thanks for these helpful suggestions. PoliceMisconduct.net is indeed a tremendous site, deserving of a wide readership — it’s put out right down the hall from my own office at the Cato Institute.

I used to represent people on death row. You cannot believe anything Amnesty sends out. We’d read about our clients in an Amnesty news release and would not have recognized them but for the name.

Although not a legal-focused site, the Register does jump on technology issues quickly and is not partisan or paywalled. It would more of a source of hot topics than legal analysis.

And Mr. Burgess, thanks for pointing out Police Misconduct. I have occasionally read CopBlock, but that site is overwhelmed by uninformed people and those who deliberately create confrontations in order to goad misconduct.

And of course, everything at ij.org is well done, but the frequency of new info isn’t great.

There are a series of blogs that are run by John Ray, Ph.D., an Australian, that cover a lot of topics that are also addressed here such as education, the environment, political correctness and guns. His blogs include education watch, tongue tied, greenie watch, and gun watch. He primarily covering events in Australia, the U.K. and the USA.

A Cato site that might be of interest is Police Misconduct. It lists, daily, instances where our finest aren't at their best. If you could find some way to get judges and juries to read this site, it might prove useful as a reminder that police remain fallibly human.

http://www.fear.org/ website deals with asset forfeiture by government. It’s an interesting site.

FourthAmendment.com might be of interest. It's a little more liberal in its analysis than I personally prefer, but it covers a lot of ground.
