Assignment Due Wednesday, February 28:
The Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday on when police can be held liable for someone's death or injury in high speed chases. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration says
more than 350 people are killed each year in the United States, in crashes related to high-speed pursuits by law enforcement, and it’s usually the fleeing suspect who dies.
Congress is considering a national standard for police pursuits that could lead to a Constitutional Amendment.
