After Mark Chambers was involved in a car accident, the responding police officer, Office Goodfellow, attempted to arrest him for driving under the influence of alcohol. As Officer Goodfellow was placing the handcuffs on Chambers, a scuffle ensued. Chambers was then arrested for DUI-Alcohol and for Assault and Battery upon a Peace Officer. The charges were severed and in this case file, Chambers is only being charged with battery.

Chambers focuses on many controversial issues. The addition of social media evidence in the Second Edition adds another element to test student's skills.

The legal definition of child pornography is, at best, unclear. In part because of this ambiguity and in part because of the nature of the crime itself, the prosecution and sentencing of perpetrators, the protection of and restitution for victims, and the means for preventing repeat offenses are deeply controversial. In Refining Child Pornography Law, experts in law, sociology, and social work examine child pornography law and its consequences in an effort to clarify the questions and begin to formulate answers. Focusing on the roles of language and crime definition, the contributors discuss the increasing visibility child pornography plays in the national conversation about child safety, and present a range of views regarding the punishment of those who produce, distribute, and possess materials that may be considered child pornography.
