GWLR authors Paul Cassell and James R. Marsh represent Amy, the victim of child pornography involved in the pending Supreme Court case (United States v. Paroline) that will address the extent to which she can recover restitution from defendants who are convicted of possessing her images. Professor Cassell, Mr. Marsh, and Jeremy Christiansen address this issue in their forthcoming GWLR article: The Case for Full Restitution for Child Pornography Victims. Oral arguments before the Court will take place on January 22, 2014.
For a great summary and review of the case, please see Emily Bazelon’s Paying Amy: Doyle Paroline owned two pornographic pictures of an 8-year-old girl. How much should he have to pay?
Mr. Marsh was also recently interviewed by HuffPost Live for his commentary on the case and the issues involved therein. A full recording of this insightful interview can be found here.
