Recently, there has been a series of cases, first involving defendants with mental retardation and more recently involving juveniles, in which the U.S. Supreme Court has ruled by a five-to-four margin that the death penalty in both these classes violates the Constitution's prohibition against cruel and unusual punishment guaranteed in the Eighth Amendment. In this essay, I explore the Supreme Court's recent decision in Roper v. Simmons, a case involving juveniles. Besides a more general discussion of the Supreme Court's decision and the biting dissent led by Justice Scalia, I focus on the reliance on foreign authorities in the Court's decision. I submit that irrespective of the moral arguments against the death penalty, reliance on foreign authorities in interpreting the U.S. Constitution is a dangerous trend, as it has long-term sovereignty implications for the United States.

Met with polar but equal passion from both the privacy lobby and law enforcement, this case has opened concerns regarding ethics in the nascent science of DNA profiling. Although the technology is touted as the most exciting breakthrough since fingerprinting in crime solving, there are questions regarding its use. The case decided by the ECHR intensified the debate on privacy, state control of information, and the public's right to be safe. New proposals in response, however, raise more questions than they sought to answer, ranging from unfettered data mining to the pitfalls in risk prediction.
