This is both a casebook on U.S. government anti-terrorism criminal
enforcement practice and policy, and a volume for teaching a
specialized criminal law and procedure course. It provides an
in-depth treatment of the major issues that arise in terrorism
investigations and in civilian and military terrorism prosecutions.
It addresses in detail topics relating to the Guantanamo detention
facility and the extended detention of persons suspected of
terrorism. Inter alia, it highlights differences in the rules
applied in civilian terrorism cases with those used in ordinary
crime matters as well as in military commission processes. This
edition includes the latest cases, statutes and executive orders
regarding subjects like electronic surveillance under the Foreign
Intelligence Surveillance Act and its amendments; interrogation
practice that led to the torture controversy as well as under the
latest FBI interrogation rules; the use of national security
letters, and pro-active surveillance by the FBI and drone-targeted
killing policy. It includes many extended notes, for example, on
relevant changes effected by the Obama administration and actions
taken during the first year under President Trump.
