Satire is a funny, aggressive, and largely oppositional literature which is typically created by people who refuse to participate in a given regime's perception of itself. Although satire has always been a primary literature of state affairs, and although it has always been used to intervene in ongoing discussions about political theory and practice, there has been no attempt to examine this fascinating and unusual literature across the full chronological horizon. In State of Ridicule: A History of Satire in English Literature (Princeton University Press, 2025), Dr. Dan Sperrin provides the first ever longue durée history of political satire in British literature. He traces satire's many extended and discontinuous trajectories through time while also chronicling some of the most inflamed and challenging political contexts within which it has been written.Dr. Sperrin begins by describing the Roman foundations and substructures of British satire, paying particularly close attention to the core Roman canon: Horace, Persius, and Juvenal. He then proceeds chronologically, populating the branches of satire's family tree with such figures as Chaucer, Jonson, Dryden, Swift, Pope, and Dickens, as well as a whole series of writers who are now largely forgotten. Satire, Dr. Sperrin shows, can be a literature of explicit statements and overt provocation—but it can also be notoriously indirect, oblique, suggestive, and covert, complicated by an author's anonymity or pseudonymity. Dr. Sperrin meticulously analyses the references to transient political events that may mystify the contemporary reader. He also presents vivid and intriguing pen portraits of the satirists themselves along the way. Dr. Sperrin argues that if satire is to be contended with and reflected upon in all its provocative complexity—and if it is to be seen as anything more than a literature of political vandalism—then we must explore the full depth and intrigue of its past. This book offers a new starting point for our intellectual and imaginative contact with an important and fascinating kind of literature. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.

In State dudes needs to make an impact at Nebraska for kids and the Huskers.

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the defense filed a motion to strike the death penalty, citing Kohberger's diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) as a mitigating factor. The State opposed this motion, arguing that under both U.S. Supreme Court and Idaho Supreme Court precedents, only intellectual disability—not ASD—precludes the imposition of the death penalty. The State emphasized that Kohberger's ASD diagnosis does not equate to intellectual disability, as he has been assessed with a high IQ and no accompanying intellectual impairments. Furthermore, the State contended that there is no national consensus or legislative action recognizing ASD as a condition warranting exemption from capital punishment. Therefore, they assert that Kohberger's ASD diagnosis does not diminish his culpability or the applicability of the death penalty in this case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-Motion-Strike-Death-Penalty-Re-Autism-Spectrum-Disorder.pdf

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the defense filed a motion to preclude the death penalty and adopt other necessary procedures, alleging that the prosecution committed disclosure violations by providing an overwhelming volume of disorganized and unsearchable data, thereby hindering the defense's ability to prepare effectively. The defense argued that these alleged violations compromised Kohberger's rights to a fair trial, due process, and effective legal representation.In response, the State asserted that it has complied with Idaho Criminal Rule 16 and its obligations under Brady v. Maryland, emphasizing that discovery materials were provided promptly and in the same format as received. The prosecution contended that the defense had not identified specific evidence that was improperly withheld or disclosed late, and therefore, there was no basis to preclude the death penalty as a sanction. The State requested that the court deny the defense's motion, affirming that Kohberger's due process rights have been upheld throughout the proceedings.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-Motion-Preclude-Death-Penalty-Disclosure-Violations.pdf

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the defense has objected to the State's notice of intent to introduce evidence under Idaho Rule of Evidence (I.R.E.) 404(b). This rule allows the admission of evidence regarding a defendant's prior bad acts for specific purposes, such as proving motive, opportunity, intent, preparation, plan, knowledge, identity, absence of mistake, or lack of accident. The State seeks to present evidence from an August 21, 2022, traffic stop involving Kohberger to establish his identity, address, phone number, and vehicle ownership. The defense argues that this evidence is not relevant to the current charges and that its introduction would be unfairly prejudicial.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:Ty A

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the State responded to the Defendant's Motion in Limine #2, which sought to exclude or limit the testimony of twenty-two of the State's expert witnesses on the grounds of vague and undisclosed expert testimony. The State asserted that it had complied with Idaho Criminal Rule 16(b)(7) and the applicable Idaho Rules of Evidence by providing detailed disclosures for each expert, outlining their anticipated testimony, the facts and data supporting their opinions, and their qualifications. The State emphasized that any disagreements with the experts' anticipated testimony should be addressed through cross-examination and rebuttal expert testimony, rather than exclusion. Additionally, the State highlighted its good-faith effort to comply with the Court's scheduling orders and instructions, noting that the Defendant had ample opportunity to review and respond to the State's disclosures, and had not demonstrated any actual prejudice resulting from the disclosures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-2-Vague-Undisclosed-Expert-Testimony.pdf

​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the prosecution responded to Defendant's Motion in Limine #13, which sought to prevent the State from using Kohberger's alleged autism diagnosis as an aggravating factor during sentencing. The prosecution clarified that they do not intend to present Kohberger's autism as an aggravating circumstance to justify the death penalty. However, they reserve the right to challenge the defense's portrayal of autism as a mitigating factor. Citing legal precedents, the State argued that while mental health conditions should not be used to increase culpability, they can be examined to assess the weight of mitigating evidence presented by the defense. Therefore, they requested the court deny the motion, allowing them to rebut any claims that Kohberger's autism diminishes his responsibility for the alleged crimes.​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the defense filed Motion in Limine #8, seeking to exclude any evidence not previously disclosed under Idaho Rule of Evidence 404(b), which pertains to the admissibility of prior bad acts to prove character. The defense argued that introducing such evidence without proper notice would be prejudicial and violate Kohberger's right to a fair trial.​In response, the prosecution contended that they have complied with all disclosure requirements and that any evidence presented falls within the permissible scope of Rule 404(b). They asserted that the evidence in question is directly relevant to establishing motive, intent, or identity, rather than merely suggesting a propensity for criminal behavior. The prosecution requested that the court deny the defense's motion, allowing the jury to consider all pertinent evidence that meets legal standards.​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the defense filed Motion in Limine #14, aiming to exclude certain statistical analyses related to DNA evidence from being presented at trial. The defense argued that the methodologies used were either unreliable or could mislead the jury, potentially violating Kohberger's right to a fair trial.In response, the prosecution contended that the statistical analyses in question adhere to established scientific standards and are commonly accepted in forensic investigations. They emphasized that such analyses are crucial for interpreting DNA evidence and can assist the jury in understanding the weight of the genetic findings. The prosecution requested that the court deny the defense's motion, asserting that excluding this evidence would hinder the jury's ability to fully evaluate the forensic aspects of the case.to contact me:boobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-REDACTED-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-14-RE-Statistical-Analysis.pdf031725-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-13-RE-Conditions-Aggravators.pdf031025+States+Response+Defendants+Motion+in+Limine+Re+Unnoticed+404b+Evidence.pdf

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the State responded to the Defendant's Motion in Limine #2, which sought to exclude or limit the testimony of twenty-two of the State's expert witnesses on the grounds of vague and undisclosed expert testimony. The State asserted that it had complied with Idaho Criminal Rule 16(b)(7) and the applicable Idaho Rules of Evidence by providing detailed disclosures for each expert, outlining their anticipated testimony, the facts and data supporting their opinions, and their qualifications. The State emphasized that any disagreements with the experts' anticipated testimony should be addressed through cross-examination and rebuttal expert testimony, rather than exclusion. Additionally, the State highlighted its good-faith effort to comply with the Court's scheduling orders and instructions, noting that the Defendant had ample opportunity to review and respond to the State's disclosures, and had not demonstrated any actual prejudice resulting from the disclosures.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-2-Vague-Undisclosed-Expert-Testimony.pdf

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the defense filed a motion to strike the death penalty, citing Kohberger's diagnosis of Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) as a mitigating factor. The State opposed this motion, arguing that under both U.S. Supreme Court and Idaho Supreme Court precedents, only intellectual disability—not ASD—precludes the imposition of the death penalty. The State emphasized that Kohberger's ASD diagnosis does not equate to intellectual disability, as he has been assessed with a high IQ and no accompanying intellectual impairments. Furthermore, the State contended that there is no national consensus or legislative action recognizing ASD as a condition warranting exemption from capital punishment. Therefore, they assert that Kohberger's ASD diagnosis does not diminish his culpability or the applicability of the death penalty in this case.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-Motion-Strike-Death-Penalty-Re-Autism-Spectrum-Disorder.pdf

In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the defense filed Motion in Limine #12, seeking to exclude any testimony identifying the make and model of the vehicle seen near the crime scene on November 13, 2022. The defense argued that the vehicle identification was speculative and lacked continuous surveillance footage linking the car observed at 1112 King Road to other footage from 1125 Ridge Road. They contended that without unbroken visual evidence, asserting that the vehicles in different videos are the same is conjectural and could mislead the jury.In response, the prosecution opposed the motion, asserting that their expert, FBI Forensic Examiner Anthony Imel, had analyzed multiple surveillance videos and concluded that the vehicle captured shared characteristics with a 2014-2015 Hyundai Elantra. They emphasized that the suspect vehicle was observed multiple times near the crime scene before and after the homicides, and that Kohberger owned a white 2015 Hyundai Elantra at that time. The prosecution argued that the jury should be allowed to hear this expert testimony and determine the weight of the evidence.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:031725-States-Response-Defendants-MiL-12-RE-Make-Model-Suspect-Vehicle.pdfBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the prosecution responded to Defendant's Motion in Limine #13, which sought to prevent the State from using Kohberger's alleged autism diagnosis as an aggravating factor during sentencing. The prosecution clarified that they do not intend to present Kohberger's autism as an aggravating circumstance to justify the death penalty. However, they reserve the right to challenge the defense's portrayal of autism as a mitigating factor. Citing legal precedents, the State argued that while mental health conditions should not be used to increase culpability, they can be examined to assess the weight of mitigating evidence presented by the defense. Therefore, they requested the court deny the motion, allowing them to rebut any claims that Kohberger's autism diminishes his responsibility for the alleged crimes.​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the defense filed Motion in Limine #8, seeking to exclude any evidence not previously disclosed under Idaho Rule of Evidence 404(b), which pertains to the admissibility of prior bad acts to prove character. The defense argued that introducing such evidence without proper notice would be prejudicial and violate Kohberger's right to a fair trial.​In response, the prosecution contended that they have complied with all disclosure requirements and that any evidence presented falls within the permissible scope of Rule 404(b). They asserted that the evidence in question is directly relevant to establishing motive, intent, or identity, rather than merely suggesting a propensity for criminal behavior. The prosecution requested that the court deny the defense's motion, allowing the jury to consider all pertinent evidence that meets legal standards.​In State v. Bryan Kohberger, the defense filed Motion in Limine #14, aiming to exclude certain statistical analyses related to DNA evidence from being presented at trial. The defense argued that the methodologies used were either unreliable or could mislead the jury, potentially violating Kohberger's right to a fair trial.In response, the prosecution contended that the statistical analyses in question adhere to established scientific standards and are commonly accepted in forensic investigations.

In State of Idaho v. Bryan Kohberger (Case Number CR01-24-31665), Motion in Limine #2 seeks to exclude vague and undisclosed expert testimony from being used at trial. Kohberger's defense argues that the prosecution has not properly disclosed the identities, qualifications, or specific opinions of their expert witnesses, violating established discovery rules. The defense contends that admitting broad, undefined, or last-minute expert testimony would place them at a severe disadvantage by preventing effective cross-examination and rebuttal preparation. They emphasize that expert testimony should meet the Daubert standard, ensuring that all scientific or technical evidence presented in court is reliable, relevant, and based on a sound methodology. Without proper disclosure, the defense fears that the prosecution may introduce unvetted or speculative testimony, which could unfairly sway the jury.Additionally, the defense raises concerns about ambiguous or generalized expert conclusions that lack a clear factual foundation. They argue that the court must preclude any expert testimony that was not properly disclosed or that fails to meet the necessary scientific and legal standards. The motion highlights the risk of unverified forensic interpretations or psychological assessments being introduced without proper vetting, potentially leading to misleading conclusions. The defense urges the court to enforce strict evidentiary standards by limiting expert testimony only to properly disclosed, scientifically validated opinions. This motion is a critical part of the defense's strategy to prevent prejudicial, speculative, or unreliable forensic evidence from influencing the jury in one of the most high-profile cases in Idaho's history.to contact  me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:022425-Defense-Motion-inLimine-2-RE-Vague-Undisclosed-Expert-Testimony.pdf

​In State of Idaho v. Bryan C. Kohberger (Case No. CR01-24-31665), the defense filed Motion in Limine #6 on February 24, 2025, seeking to exclude the testimony of Idaho State Police forensic scientist Rylene Nowlin regarding "touch" or "contact" DNA. The defense argues that such terms are misleading, as they imply a definitive method of DNA deposition, which cannot be scientifically determined. They contend that allowing testimony on how DNA was transferred to the knife sheath found at the crime scene would confuse the jury and unfairly prejudice the defendant.The motion emphasizes that current DNA technology cannot conclusively determine when or how DNA was deposited on an item, whether through direct contact or secondary transfer. The defense references studies and expert opinions highlighting the complexity of DNA transfer mechanisms and the potential for indirect transfer. They assert that permitting Nowlin to testify about the manner of DNA deposition exceeds her expertise and could mislead the jury, violating Idaho Rules of Evidence 402 and 403.to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:022425-Defense-Motion-inLimine-6-RE-Rylene-Nowlin-Reference-Touch-Contact-DNA.pdf
