Hello Summer. I took a similar approach within my own post regarding the 5 year prison sentence option.I feel that it's important to look at every scenario of the potential outcome. The lesser sentence for both teams is 5 years. However, the best case scenario is getting off free by confessing. I believe that it's important to try to get into the minds of the other team through analyzing what our own group is in favor of. Considering how others within our group seem to be mostly in favor of confessing, would it be unwise to think that there are similar arguments being made and potentially a similar consensus for the opposing team? It seems to me that the popular vote here is confessing with the hope of getting off free or getting a medium
Victoria Price could be compared to Mayella Ewell in how she behaved in the court during the testimony. Victoria Price was rude, ignorant, and lying when she was getting questioned, and so was Mayella. All she answered to try to keep herself away from getting asked was, “I don’t know,” and “No.” (“Testimony of Victoria Price and Dr. R.R Bridges”) After Atticus, the lawyer asked Mayella if she remembers Tom beat her in the face, she responded saying, “No, I don’t recollect if he hit me. I mean yes I do, he hit me.” (Lee 248) This shows that her accusation was bogus.
On 08/20/2016, at about 1945 hours, in Durango 4 located at 325 W. Gibson Lane, Phoenix, AZ 85009, Officer Smith B3168 informed me that an inmate came to him claiming he was assaulted. I escorted (V1) Inmate Marino, Nicholas MCSO Bk# T292955 to Durango Medical Clinic to be evaluated for any injuries he may have received.
New Life Prison is a private prison located in an unincorporated area of Brentwood, CA New Life prison is a dormitory setting and a minimum security prison for level one and two male inmate population of 500. New Life Prison is too focused on lowering the recidivism rate in CA. New Life prison is a new private prison and receives funding from grants and donations. New Life mission is to focus on the level one and two inmate’s within the state prison system. New Life mission is to help these individuals move on passed the crime they have committed and began to live their life again. In 2004 Folsom state prison was able to move their level one and two inmates to a minimum security facility (Department of Correction 2015). Most of these inmates
A murder suspect who escaped from a Mississippi jail was shot dead by a family he held hostage for several hours inside their home Thursday, police said.
Back in February, Texas State Senator Carlos Uresti (D-San Antonio), was found guilty of 11 federal counts of fraud and bribery. Although countless voters and politicians from both parties promptly called on him to step down from office after learning about the guilty verdict, the democratic state senator basically slapped voters in the face and, quite arrogantly, refused to resign.
Cities with higher incarceration rates had increased socio-economic instability. Some neighborhoods decreased in population so severely that they became non-existent due to the mass incarceration rate. Because the government allowed the inmates to work for private industry for a fraction of what the standard wage was at the time, many free-laborers had difficulty finding gainful employment and had lost their ability to use collective bargaining. The free-labor loss of jobs associated with hiring inmates also increased poverty in urban areas which in turn increased crimes of
Corrections Director Reginald D. Michael told Governor Steve Bullock, “We hope that throughout this process we can identify more responsible solutions to this situation, but for now we’ll keep making public safety decisions in the best interest of Montanans.” In order to address Montana’s budget shortfall, will see deep cuts in the Montana State Prison and a more than two dozen correctional programs. Unfortunately, in the process, a facility in Lewistown that cares for the elderly, and a youth transition center in Great Falls could be potentially closed. If there were to be any dramatic cuts to the drug treatment programs, would heighten the crowding of Flathead County jail. Judge Robert Allison said he’d love to see the expansion of drug treatment services since a vast amount of his cases are drug-related and told Allison “It would be a step in the wrong direction, and I think it would come back to bite us in the long term.”
When looking at the current situation in the United States concerning the number of people serving the balance of their sentence in the community of corrections one must understand that there are different parts that make up the multi areas of community of corrections. These areas are probation which are normally sentences for misdemeanor criminal offences. Parole is another area of community of corrections that deal with people convicted of felony offences. The current condition of parole as of 2016 showed approximately 4,537,100 were under supervised parole or probation, of that 3,789,800 were on probation and 870,500 were on parole. (Kaeble, 2018). This number was a decrease from the beginning of that same year. Another key factor of this
Defendant Smith has been arrested for possession of enough ecstasy for two hits and has admitted to using alcohol, cocaine, and marijuana in the past. Clearly this indicates that he has a drug problem. However, he has no prior criminal record, has held down a job in construction for the past two years, and has a child for whom he must pay child support. He has fallen behind as of late and may be tied to his drug abuse, for which he has never received counseling or treatment. Give that he has never received treatment, has a job, and a child to support, I would recommend that he be placed into a Drug Court Program.
Throughout history crime has always presented itself as well as punishment for these crimes. In time there have been several ways to physically, emotionally, and psychologically punish a human being. However, being a part of the Guantanamo Bay era the increasing use of solitary confinement has offered itself to be one of the best ways to reprimand criminals as well as hostages. A troubling movement in the American prison system is the escalating use of sustained and consistent forms of cruel solitary confinement also known as supermax prisons which are used to confine prisoners that the government labels as dangerous. A documentary film, as well as several informative resources, will be used to uncover the truths behind this form of punishment.
1) Any sex guilty party could at present be viewed as fierce regardless of the possibility that they did not kill their casualties. The perpetual physical, passionate, and mental scars that sex guilty parties leave their casualties and the life changing harms groups of casualties’ experience is sufficiently awful. No, regardless of the possibility that a sex wrongdoer does not kill their casualties, there is a potential hazard that they could in any case display vicious inclinations and can hurt somebody.
The Progressive Reform Movement ideas were to make the educational institutions effective agencies where there was respect for diversity, as well as a place to gain educational understanding on their quest of being citizens that believe in service for others (Weiler, 2004). Furthermore, there was a belief that within the classroom setting, there would be a democratic relationship that would focus on the needs of the students, rather than the institution (Progressive Education – Philosophical Foundations, Pedagogical Progressivism, Administrative Progressivism, Life-Adjustment Progressivism, n.d.).
“Recidivism “is as to relapse in behavior; typically, in criminal behavior. Department of Justice Measurements of recidivism include new arrest, new convictions, returning to prison with a new sentence or reincarceration for rest of sentence. Astonishingly enough, with in a 5-year period in 2010 ,70% of offenders that were released had been reincarcerated, due to rescinding back to the life of crime.
There are many people who are critical of the US‘s prison sysetm; the idea of locking up those who commit crimes against a society simply to keep them from doing harm. Many say that more rehabilatation is necessary to improve these individuals and, therefore, society as a whole. What are some ways of doing this? Do you agree/disagree with this view and why? Is the prison system currently in place the best option for society? 2 pages, double spaced, 12pt. font.
In experiment 2, temperature was the factor tested to see how it affected the rate of reactions. Tweaking the method for the first experiment, the sodium thiosulphate were in three different temperature; one was placed on a hotplate and heated, another in an ice bath and the last was room temperature. This showed how the temperature of the solution can be an important factor when investigating reaction rates. Concentration of the reactants affects reaction rate by increasing the rate when the concentration is also increased. According to the collision theory proposed by Max Trautz in 1916 and William Lewis in 1918, for two molecules to react they must first come into contact with each other, called a collision. The molecules are more likely to collide if they
