Summary
This page from a legal article discusses the concept of "enforcement redundancy" as a tool to combat criminal law underenforcement, particularly in cases of police violence and sexual assault. It analyzes the U.S. approach of federalism-based redundancy compared to other mechanisms like private prosecution or judicial review used internationally. The text argues that while federal intervention helps with public corruption and some civil rights violations, it has a mixed record on police violence and has failed to adequately address sexual assault underenforcement.
