After Arrest: A Case Study

Prosecutors normally meet witnesses at a relatively early stage in the proceedings to discuss special measures and related issues. The witness’s overall subjective experience of participating in criminal proceedings might thereby be enhanced.

There are many parts of the courtroom and the process of convicting a criminal. The courtroom work group has a major role in convicting and finalizing a case. In the courtroom work group, there are three groups of people that hold the entire courtroom together. Without the work group, the courtroom would not flow, and coming to a conclusion to the case would not be as easy. The work group is made up of the Judge, the Defense Counsel and the Prosecution. They work together to reach a result, in the case by staying in contact on a daily basis. There are many roles in the work group, and if they are not all followed through with then the results could be different than what they should be. In this paper, we will

In order to justify the grant of pre-arrest bail, the petitioner must show that he apprehends his arrest on account of ulterior motives. Pre-arrest bail may not be granted where there is no allegation made against the police that they have falsely implicated the petitioner in the case. Where there is nothing to show that there has been false involvement and the accusation is of a heinous offence like sodomy bail before arrest cannot be

Katherine arrest is not a constitutional issue at all and she was not deprived of liberty without due process because the warrant that was issued under her name was valid. Yes, it was a warrant due to her sister Kasey using her DL, name, and personal information fraudulently when she was arrested. However, the Trimble County Sheriff’s Department was not aware of the fraudulent actions of Kasey and did nothing wrong. “An arrest warrant is issued only if the substantial and trustworthy evidence supports these two conclusions: (1) a violation of the law has been committed, and (2) the person to be arrested committed the violation” (Bohm & Haley, 2018, p. 105). The 14th Amendments states that no person shall be “deprived of life, liberty, or property

The RN I followed played the role of a teacher/educator not only by educating patients about procedures or medications they were receiving but also by educating and teaching me how to be an efficient and diligent nurse throughout the entire shift. Each time we received a call (Charlie 911) he would teach me what we would be doing for that specific call, such as telling me the procedure for assessing inmates after an altercation; First, we identify the patient then ask if it was a PREA related incident before we can continue the physical assessment.

In my opinion, the United States in the case of Bailey was not in the wrong to detain Polo aka Chunon Bailey while searching his apartment. I believe the officers did everything in their power to make sure they had valid evidence before requesting a search warrant for Polo's apartment and good reasoning to detain him at the crime scene. In Michigan v. Summers the court allowed the officers, who were conducting the search, to detain the tenant while the search is being done. Consequently, the court did not state when the detainment should occur, so using the Fourth Amendment as a model for reasonableness, the court of appeals decided that officers could detain a tenant who leaves the vicinity, considering that the detainment happened in a timely

After the Court`s decision, Gideon was appointed an attorney and acquitted after an hour long deliberation by the jury. Many people were released and retried based on Gideon`s decision. The Court had a great intent and vision that the right to counsel is required at all critical stages of the justice process. However, recent studies have displayed that public defenders and court appointed lawyers are disproportionately underfunded compared to private attorneys. Public defenders experience a great workload having multiple court appearances a day, and on average spending only 7 minutes to prepare and review for the trial. This data shows that indigent defendants are not represented properly in the court of law and it forces the accused to plea

Several penological principles guide how Australia responds to crime, with the criminal justice system implying that incapacitation is preferred. Incapacitation is relied on to prevent offenders from committing further crimes against society. Australia’s reliance on incapacitation can be confirmed in three following ways.

With an increased focus on the use of therapeutic jurisprudence to better the wellbeing of parties to legal proceedings, there is increasing scrutiny on the way that legal proceedings are conducted within the traditional court system. Using a single case as its basis, this report this report argues that once an offender has pleaded guilty, they have little opportunity to explain their circumstances in a direct manner, and that this is detrimental to the welfare of the offender, their family and friends, and the judicial officer.

The defense and prosecuting attorneys question the defendant to learn the circumstances of the offense. After carefully listening to the facts,

Chain of custody is defined by Saferstein (2015), as a sequential documentation, that shows custody, control, analysis, handling and nature of physical or electrical evidence. Chain of custody is a model that is utilised by the police during criminal investigations to demonstrate that the evidence has been handled in a manner that does not destroy the integrity of the evidence (Houck & Siegel, 2015). According to Spikmans (2015), obeying the standard procedures of the chain of custody model can make sure that the evidence can endure any questioning of authenticity and integrity in court. Houck & Siegel (2015) stated that the chain of custody is without a doubt, the most important piece of paper generated at a crime scene; they postulated, that without it, the most convincing piece of forensic evidence can be rendered useless in the judicial system. According to Saferstein (2015), every monstrous failure during criminal cases is largely the result of incorrect usage of the chain of custody model, the most noteworthy which is the OJ Simpson case. This essay shows, the chain of custody model is crucial for demonstrating integrity and preserving the evidence, and by extension, justice. This essay contains two case studies that illustrate how the chain of custody model preserves evidence and displays the integrity of the evidence.

A criminal defense attorney is a lawyer that is specialized in the defense of those who are charged with criminal conduct. Defense attorneys deal with the surrounding issues of an arrest of their clients, and the substantive issues of a crime that he or she is charged. In the United States, each individual who is brought to trail is eligible for a defense attorney, according to the sixth amendment. If an individual cannot afford an attorney, one is a pointed by the courts; these individuals are called public defenders who are employed by the government. The duties of a defense attorney, is to advocate and advice. In order, for the defense attorney to work effectively, the defendant must supply all the facts and information surrounding the case.

The criminal defense attorney role is to assist the courts with the truth-seeking process by presentation an oral argument in favor of defendant innocence. The average case calls to “advocate with courage and devotion and to render effective, quality representation” (Flower, Page 650, paragraph one). The misconceptions of a defense attorney are that she or he performs duties begrudgingly whether or not the attorney believes in the innocents of the client. The writer considers the availability of an exchange of

The justice system is not always just, for the events that happened in the story of "Citizen's Arrest" has shown how anybody can be perceived as innocent by believingly accusing someone of doing something wrong. A reason why people tend to view people as moral and immoral over one action, pertains to why people do not desire to be strained over cases in general searching for the truth. This is unfair, as immoral, maleficent people can trick authorities into thinking they are innocent, thus moral people's accidents could come to be viewed as graceless instead, which is what had happened in the story.Thieves are sly and cunning, while moral people are honest which is why moral people could possibly be brought into greater troubles than the sly
