Amnesties, punishment, and the law in Missouri
A historic court opinion examines whether an act granting amnesty amounts to punishment for past acts, deeming it a bill of attainder and ex post facto law. It argues the measure enforces civil penalties, would subvert trial rights, and would breach constitutional protections, while noting broader political risks and implications for citizenship.
