    The U.S. has a long and complex history of criminal law reform initiative aimed at enhancing the fairness, effectiveness, and efficiency of its criminal legal system. Despite the laudable intentions, not all of these initiatives have achieved their desired outcomes. This panel will critically examine a selection of criminal law reforms, delving into arguments and reasons behind their failure and the implications for the future. The panel will also consider the role of the judiciary in shaping the outcomes of these reform efforts. By engaging in a nuanced analysis of past failures, the panel will provide valuable perspectives for the future.
