WSJ investigation: In the past 6 months ICE agents have fired at vehicles 13 times, leading to:

* 8 people shot
* 5 of which were U.S. citizens
* 2 died
* no victims drew a weapon

The playbook: Agents box in a vehicle, block attempts to flee, then fire

Time flies! Grateful for the opportunity to have served as Editor of the Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics (@oxfordecondept.bsky.social @wileyeconomics.bsky.social), 2018-2025.
Part two of this year's RES Summit explored the teaching of economics of justice and crime in the classroom. The RES would like to thank the Nuffield Foundation for supporting this event and for hosting our panel in their London offices.

The recording is now available of this month’s RES Summit, the theme of which was Economics of the Justice System. Watch the 2025 RES Summit on-demand here: bit.ly/4rRaGSP

The Summit was kindly sponsored and hosted by the Nuffield Foundation.

Encouraging to see our research on non-fatal strangulation laws cited in the @parliament.scot #VAWG debate, noting US legislation has made strangulation a serious stand-alone criminal offence, which has been linked to reduced intimate partner homicide rates.
