Law

In January of 2006, two Burleson High School girls went to school with purses that had the confederate flag on them. They were told that the purses with the confederate flag violated the school dress code policy. They were given the option of having someone pick up the purses or going home. They chose to go home and took the matter all they way to the school board and eventually the Fifth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Court backed the school and said that the Confederate Flag carried enough symbolism to disrupt school activities. While many young people in the United States like to believe that racism is mostly in the country’s past, this case illustrates that the symbols and iconography associated with the history of slavery are still potently meaningful. If the Confederate flag is synonymous with slavery, is there any place for its display in modern society? Those who fight for their right to display the flag say such a display should be covered by the First Amendment: the right to free speech. But others say the flag is equivalent to hate speech, which is not covered by the First Amendment.Write a 2-4 page paper and state if you think displaying the Confederate flag should be considered free speech or hate speech.

Labelling Theory would posit that crime is a product of increased legislation more than inherent criminal tendencies. In criminal justice history it might be argued that custom has remained more influential than law.For this Discussion, select one of the following laws or cases from the Progressive Era that is interesting to you: White Slave Traffic Act, the Sullivan Law, the Drug Laws, the Eugenics Movement, the Red Scare, or Weeks v. United States. Then, consider the impact this law or case might have had on the current U.S. criminal justice system. Explain how this impact may have an influence on your role in the U.S. criminal justice system.Assignment: How did the laws and cases of the Progressive Era affect what happens today?Provide one example. Using one of the laws or cases provided, explain any parallels of this to current laws or cases.What might be the lasting effects on today’s U.S. criminal justice system?How does having this information as a leader in criminal justice influence your role?Offer two alternative effects of these laws or cases- Must have a turn it in report- Must be PhD level- There is no word limit

Respond to all five issues in one cohesive essay. Please include a brief introduction and use Level I headings to differentiate between the five issues. Analyze philosopher Jeremy Bentham and his idea of utilitarianism ideas that a nation should do whatever is necessary to lead to the greatest possible happiness for the largest possible number of people in society and that man was a “calculating animal” who would balance pain and suffering versus gain when deciding to commit a criminal act. Do you agree with this? Argue your point using research to support your answer.1. Based on the pure communist social model, how does capitalism lead to crime? Analyze and argue both sides of this issue.2. Analyze whether developmental disabilities are a cause of criminal behaviour. Take a stance on this issue and argue your point using research as support.3. Describe, in your opinion, how a criminal personality is developed. No sources are required for this section.4. Assume class division in society causes crime. What is a viable alternative to this system? Analyze and argue both sides of your proposed solution. In your answer, you should identify five major theoretical approaches to identifying criminal causes of behaviour and describe which of these would support your proposed solution. The essay must be a minimum of two pages.

Prepare a paper introducing your problem and clearly stating the importance of the issue for the population you have selected (Juvenile crime and drug abuse is it related) that is my topic. with at least five additional references from peer-reviewed journals published in the past five years.

Length: 4-5 pages, not including title and reference pages. Your paper should demonstrate thoughtful consideration of the ideas and concepts that are presented in the course and provide new thoughts and insights relating directly to this topic. Your response should reflect scholarly writing and current APA standards.

In your own words—and using your textbook, and Internet sources—answer the following question.Although some studies reveal that African-American, Hispanic, and Native-American youths are treated more harshly than Caucasian youths at several stages of the juvenile justice process (even after the seriousness of the offense and the offender’s prior juvenile record are taken into consideration), the studies do not discuss why these disparities occur. How would you explain these differences? Support your reasoning with evidence.

Part I: Read the scenarios below and consider the many options an officer has when responding to such situations. Research local police departmental policies regarding such things as mentioned in the scenarios (e.g., Domestic Violence, Disturbing the Peace, Profiling, etc.); things that are common problems confronting the police on a daily basis. In your responses, discuss the constitutional rights and legality behind the problems in these scenarios. Read the scenarios and respond to the prompts for each one. Defend your responses with scholarly research.Be sure to cite three to five relevant scholarly sources in support of your content. Use only sources found at government websites or those provided in Topic Materials.While APA style is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using APA documentation guidelines.Note: Word-counts are listed at the end of each scenario.1) Officer Smith is responding to a call of shots fired with no further information. It is 2 a.m., and in a high-crime neighborhood. Upon arrival at the location, Officer Smith and his backup officer see several teens who see the officers and immediately start to run away.

Is it possible to get a truly fair and impartial trial in the United States? Identify and explain three procedural safeguards that are in place to make sure that the process is fair. REPLY TO MY CLASSMATE’S RESPONSE TO THE ABOVE QUESTIONS AND EXPLAIN WHY YOU AGREE? (A MINIMUM OF 125 WORDS or MORE EACH QUESTION)The sixth amendment was drafted to correct what the framers perceived as issues within the English justice system (Epstien & Walker, 2016).  There are several procedural safeguards in the sixth amendment that are in place to ensure fairness and impartiality throughout the criminal prosecution process. While not all inclusive, some of the protections guaranteed are the right to a trial by a jury of one’s peers, a right to confront the accuser, and the right to counsel.  If the accused is provided an attorney for consultation, the belief is that there is someone who will ensure that their rights are protected. The right to confront ones accuser guarantees that one cannot be charged with a crime unless someone is there for them to confront with regard to the nature of the offense as well as to counter examine, and the right to a trial by jury of one’s peers was designed to ensure that those making determination of guilt were representative of who they might be brining verdicts against. The largest threat to a fair trial is the plea-bargaining process.  As Epstien and Walker (2016) report, less than ten percent of all criminal prosecutions go to trial.  The trials might be fair, but most cases never see the trial process because it is timely and more cost effective to settle cases prior to a full- Reference:Epstein, L. & Walker, T.G.
