- W2289877272 abstract "North Carolina’s Racial Justice Act manifested a clear intent to overcome the restrictions imposed by McCleskey on the use of statistical evidence and to use such evidence to eliminate the impact of race where it is a “significant factor in decisions to seek or impose the death penalty” in pertinent prosecutorial units where a death sentence was imposed. Most innovatively, it gives force to the long established prohibition articulated in Strauder, Swain, and Batson that jurors may not be excluded by racially discriminatory peremptory challenges, stating that the statute’s commands are violated if it is shown that “[r]ace was a significant factor in decisions to exercise peremptory challenges during jury selection.” By cumulating peremptory strike patterns and potential neutral justifications across cases, the statistical analysis provides an opportunity to the court to determine whether racial discrimination in jury selection occurred in death penalty cases. To enforce its commands, an extensive study was conducted to gather data and to analyze the impact of race on the cases of all those on North Carolina’s death row. The study shows significant racial disparities after a broad range of legitimate potential explanations have been considered for peremptory strikes exercised by the prosecution. The court’s decision in State v. Robinson found the study valid and its results powerful evidence that race played a role prohibited by the RJA in the exercise of peremptory challenges in that case. As the impact of the 2012 changes in the RJA are resolved, the original RJA remains a model for consideration by other states interested eradicating the improper use of race in peremptory challenges and remedying the failures of McCleskey and Batson. The promise the RJA demonstrated in Robinson remains, for the RJA was not abandoned because the statistical evidence was found flawed or proved unmanageable, nor was the pernicious effect of race found absent. Indeed, the trial court’s judgment in Robinson revealed a deeply troubling pattern of improper use of race in peremptory strikes that it concluded clearly warranted remedy. Time and future litigation will resolve the legacy of North Carolina’s RJA. It started as an effort to cure the impact of McCleskey and eliminate the weakness of Batson. Hopefully, the tragic lost opportunities of McCleskey will not be repeated." @default.
