Abstract

This note serves as an introduction to the American legal system's attempts to deal with lone wolf terrorism. It outlines the general approach that courts employ in legal proceedings, with particular emphasis given to terrorism cases. The note also provides an overview of key antiterrorism laws and their applicability to lone wolf terrorists, including enhanced governmental tactics and emerging technologies. This paper concludes by considering various proposals for legal reform and how these proposals might impact the threat of lone wolf terrorism.
