This project wouldn’t have been possible without my amazing co-authors. I’m excited to get our second article out.

Check out our article published in LHB examining jurors’ legal decisions of autistic juvenile defendants. This was my first research project as an assistant professor so it’s a huge accomplishment to see it finally published.

Hello Psych & Law folks! I have an undergrad student interested in risk assessment of sex offenders and jury decision-making. Does anyone have any paper recommendations or know folks who focus on this topic. Thanks in advance!

🚨 HUGE NEWS: Indiana has passed its first-ever eyewitness ID reform bill!

S.B. 141 — championed by the Innocence Project & Notre Dame Exoneration Justice Clinic — tackles eyewitness misidentification, a top cause of wrongful conviction.

A major step forward. 🖤

Can confirm that my NSF grant "How False Beliefs Form & How to Correct Them" was cancelled today because it is "not in alignment with current NSF priorities" Shocking that understanding how people are misled by false information is now a forbidden topic. Our work will continue but at a smaller scale

Any friends here teach high school #psychology? APA asked me to write a short article for high school teachers about legal psychology. What are students interested in learning more about: Confessions? Eyewitness testimony? Juries? Expert testimony? Judicial decision-making?

Let me know!

I wrote an article (which later formed the basis of my book, Smoke but No Fire) about people wrongly convicted of crimes that never happened in the first place. Over one-third of all known exonerations of innocent people are in no-crime wrongful conviction cases.

Essentialism and the Criminal Legal System Existing literature has yet to conceptualize and consolidate research on psychological essentialism and its relation to the criminal legal system, particularly

Excited that our new paper on essentialism in the criminal legal system made SSRN’s top ten lists for both Crime/Psych and Crim. Thanks to @maddymillar.bsky.social for leading our work (w/ @anthonyperillo.bsky.social and many others).
