- Authors
Kracum, John
- Abstract
The article discusses whether criminal defendants have the right to face their interpreters at trial in America as of April 2014, focusing on the U.S. criminal justice system, the legal rights of non-English speaking criminal suspects, and the U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in the case Crawford v. Washington which deals with out-of-court statements and a defendant's ability to cross-examined a declarant. The validity of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit's ruling in the case United States v. Nazemian, which addresses hearsay evidence and an interpreter acting as a language conduit, is examined.
