Meet Daisy Trujillo, a fourth-year Ph.D. student in Berkeley Law’s Jurisprudence and Social Policy (JSP) Program. Daisy researches what scholars have labeled “crimmigration,” the intersection of the U.S. criminal legal and immigration systems. Her work examines the construction of “the criminal” in the immigration context, including how immigrants and migration have long been criminalized through nativist and anti-criminal sentiments. For Daisy, her research questions are also personal. As a daughter of Mexican immigrants, seeing the attacks on immigrant communities happening around her left her wanting to understand it better: “How is this legal? How is this allowed to happen? I need to figure out what’s going on.” That curiosity drives Daisy’s research on how non-citizens charged with non-immigration related crimes experience criminal justice in the United States. #BerkeleyLaw
