Re-stating the state of the states

As we continue to gear up for all the federal fun in Booker and Fanfan, the states keep chugging along with Blakely.

Smylie will raise the issue of Blakely and consecutive sentences.”

Meanwhile, my wonderful research assistant — who previously created here downloadable copies of all the text of this blog (through Sept. 15) — has now produced a distinct document which assembles just the posts I have done on Blakely‘s impact and application in the states. Of great help, the Word document includes imbedded links and a Table of Contents to make it easier to see which states have been most Blakely active:
