Focusing on a fatal police shooting in an urban district predominantly populated by leftist groups and marginalized communities, it aims to illustrate the limits of both criminal trials and audiovisual technologies of proof. The “culture of impunity” has been the prevailing framework to describe courts’ denial of the ongoing violence of law enforcement. Instead, this article pays attention to the formation of facts, regulation of sensory perceptions, and affective engagements in the courtroom. Drawing on the ethnographically grounded examination of the hearings and the case file, I argue that criminal trials establish the particular legibility of video evidence and police violence. Furthermore, the breach between the ways of seeing, hearing, and interpreting these media serves to delineate different political communities, challenging the assumed unity over which the law has authority. Social and Legal Studies 31/1/2023 Research article Contacting the police for assistance: findings from a sample of undocumented Latino immigrants Victims’ decisions to call the police for assistance have been examined to date primarily from the perspective of U.S. citizens. We still know little about factors that influence decisions of undocumented immigrants to contact the police. Using data from a survey of undocumented Latino immigrants who were victimized in property and person offenses, this study examined the association between experiences during police stops and the likelihood of calling the police for help. Results showed a higher likelihood of contacting the police for assistance among respondents who had experienced police stops in the United States, regardless of the cause of their stop(s) or the police demeanor. However, when disaggregating respondents into subgroups, the study found a low rate of calling police for help among respondents who had negative experiences negative during police stops. The policy implications of the findings are presented.
