On 21 July 2011 the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights issued its much awaited decision in the case of Jessica Lenahan (Gonzales) v United States. In a landmark decision the Commission found the United States of America to be in violation of the American Declaration of the Rights and Duties of Man 1948 due to the failure of the state to protect a victim of domestic violence and her children. This paper analyses the Lenahan decision and its significance for the United States. In particular, the substantial influence of the case law of the European Court of Human Rights on the Commission’s reasoning is examined.

Reports of the illegal use of clenbuterol as a growth promotant prompted the development of a competitive enzyme immunoassay for this drug. This procedure was utilized to study the elimination of clenbuterol from tissues in sheep medicated with both therapeutic and growth-promoting doses of the drug. The results indicated that prior to removal of medication clenbuterol was widely distributed throughout the animal tissues. However as the withdrawal periods increased fluid targets such as urine and bile became less effective at detecting clenbuterol usage. At both therapeutic and growth-enhancing concentrations of clenbuterol liver samples remained positive up to the maximum withdrawal time given in this experiment (15 days). Concentrations of clenbuterol likely to cause food poisoning (> 100 ng/g) were only detected in liver samples taken prior to the removal of medication. The highest recorded concentration of clenbuterol in muscle was 22.5 ng/g.
