Briefly:
- At FiveThirtyEight, Oliver Roeder predicts that “the median justice during Trump’s or Clinton’s presidency could become one of the most extreme in almost a century.”
- At Philly.com, Samantha Melamed reports that, in Pennsylvania, four “juvenile lifers” were “given new sentences as a consequence of Montgomery v. Louisiana, the U.S. Supreme Court decision this January that made retroactive the court’s ban on automatic life-without-parole sentences for juveniles.”
- At The American Prospect, Scott Lemieux lists what he characterizes as the “five worst Roberts Court rulings.”
