Analysis Of Ray Rice Domestic Violence

Working with victims of domestic violence can be an extremely rewarding and fulfilling endeavor. One of the most crucial aspects for a paralegal working with victim of domestic violence is adequately engaging in the task of educating oneself to understand the commonalities of such victims and the ordeals that they have been through. Such clients are drastically different from other individuals who have suffered other physical and violent crimes. Understanding the background of someone who has lived through domestic violence is absolutely central to being able to provide adequate and sensitive legal care. Most victims of domestic violence are women (95%) though domestic violence can have an impact on ever age, class, race, ethnic, cultural or religious group (purplerainfoundation, 2012). "In the United States, nearly one in three adult women experience at least one physical assault by a partner during adulthood (American Psychological Association, Presidential Task Force on Violence and the Family 1996 Report)" (purplerainfoundation, 2012). These women are often terrified of their partner's temper, apologize when they are abused and often in the most extremely controlling and isolated environment where the abusive partner will control who the partner sees and where the partner goes outside of the home, jealous of outside relationships (purplerainfoundation, 2012). In these abusive relationships the women are hit,

When Ray Rice’s video went viral, it caused all of us to examine what this is really all about. It's given visibility to a problem that's been there for a long time. The NFL has a strict new policy in dealing with domestic-violence offenders, college football coaches are being held publicly accountable when they allow domestic abusers to remain on their teams, and sports as a whole has helped bring America's dirty little secret out into the public mainstream. No, there wasn't justice in the Rice case, but we did gain a tremendous amount of consciousness from

Though the assault is certainly a tremendous factor in his struggle to be signed, he’s also seen as declining player at a position built for a young player. Rice’s rushing yards, average per carry, and touchdown totals declined in each of this final three years with the Ravens.

media scrutiny, especially since swift and proper action against Rice did not happen until after the footage was released. They have changed their policy to a six game suspension for a first offense, although offense is not defined and is open for interpretation in the policy. There are still football players who continue to play despite legal action against them in domestic violence disputes.

Ray Rice has abused his his wife those are both very dreadful and the NFL doesn't approve it. Once the NFL heard about him whipping his son with a small stick than I think they let him off with a warning. Abuse is bad in many ways no matter who you're abusing. Ray Rice has done something a fan of Ray Rice would never of thought of him doing. Every fan of Ray Rice is now sad that he has been kicked out of the NFL and his contract is demolished out of every file they have it in.

The incident with Ray Rice and Janay Palmer was the most talk about news in sports history. Ray Rice was charged with aggravated assault against his then fiancé for punching her in the face in an elevator at an Atlantic City casino. Rice was saw punching his now wife, Janay Rice, in the face, spitting on her then dragging her limp body out of an elevator, which was all seen on tape where the charges were later dismissed. Rice married Palmer six weeks after the incident on March 28, 2014. For the incident, Rice was suspended for the first two games

I chose to compare the NFL crisis regarding the Ray Rice domestic abuse. The major difference with the NFL crisis was the fact it was created by a single action versus a poor corporate decision. My crisis stemmed from poor planning which resulted in a failed campaign. However, if one measures failure based solely upon financial gain or loss we can clearly see that no negative outcome transpired as a result of this failure.

numerous secret meetings, with owners and other high ranking officials. In June 2014 the NFL makes a statement, that the commissioner of the NFL had not seen the tape released by TMZ nor was it granted any when they requested them from police. The whole thing seemed fishy considering that it was the most trending topic in sports, so how has the commissioner not seen what everyone else has two or three times. A couple weeks later TMZ releases another tape, this time it was of Ray striking Janay in the face rendering her unconscious. That same day Ravens terminate Ray’s contract, and the NFL does a complete and udder 180. Taking Ray’s two game suspension and changing it to indefinitely.

McLaughlin wrote this article with the distinct reason to inform the people of the world that this kind of stuff happens more than you think. CNN didn’t just scratch the surface, they went deep into this subject and brought up everything they

Ray Rice didn't acknowledge the fact that his way was drunk and she needed to cool down for a Sec. They should of taking this situation where they can solve it another way, then going to court, going to hail or even get suspended from the NFL. For each of the situation, I think they could put Ray and his fiancée in a rehab or an anger management center so that it can help them out throughout the process. If you can tell how the judge and the NFL have taken it too far from the situation. Instead of him going to jail, he could've been on probation and learn from his mistakes. The NFL and the teammates can help him to accomplish his goals by talking to him, explaining how to not put your hands on any type of women, focus on his anger so that he can control it. Mange throughout the whole year without any domestic violence. Now he needs to learn that one day his daughter will find out

On September 8th 2014 NFL team, Baltimore Ravens terminated Ray Rice’s contract after he was captured via elevator surveillance assaulting his then fiancée, now wife in February. The video outraged the nation and the public questioned NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell’s knowledge of the entire situation. In turn, the NFL gave him the light punishment of a two game suspension. Many people argued that although Goodell previously issued much heavier fines for issues such as substance abuse (Elliot, 2014).

In my opinion Marshawn Lynch’s behavior with the media is unethical. I believe it is unethical and wrong because he signed a professional contract that states that he must speak to the media. Lynch should have never signed that contract because he is losing money. This is poor publicity for the Seattle Seahawks and the NFL. I took it as Lynch being rude and unprofessional when he finally decided to talk to the media but all the he said was “yeah” and “I am just here so I won’t get fined”. “It's required by the league because the media and the television networks pay a large portion of everyone's salary. It comes with the job (Rosenthal, 2014).” I do not see why he would even tried to mess with the media and television networks knowing that’s

However, the way they told the story was somewhat skewed some may say. They are entertaining rather than informing by always showing videos or pictures while somebody is talking. Hardly do they ever focus on just the person being interviewed causing people to lose focus on what they are saying, but by putting all the pictures and video clips in, they draw the attention of the audience away from the facts and to the images that are being shown. Fox News the network on which the show aired is conservative. So the way the stories mainly the Syrian story was told in a way that makes us think one way. It tries to convince us that the president of Syria is a horrible person and the killer of his own people as told in this piece. This is told only from one point of view and that is the reporters and the network she works for. Fox News is not the only news network that does this. All the major networks do this because the stories that are told, are told to get ratings and not necessarily report on what actually matters. This causes people to gather their own information and look at it in their own way because they become distracted by all the images and clips. This ultimately will alter what is actually being said, thus, causing a false testimony to be given by the

Even after no legal actions were taken in the case the NFL still punished Rice. Bad press offered fans to take their allegiance to the NFL away (Bowers ). This was a widely broadcasted and highly noted case and story for all reporters. This was not the only case of domestic violence in the ensuing time. James Cox, Ray Mcdonald, and Bruce Miller just to name a few were all accused of domestic Violence throughout this time..

Family violence and abuse is a prominent issue in our society that has maintained its presence throughout our history. Familial abuse has a tendency to be masked by emotions, not being classified as “abuse” by the victims until it has become a reoccurring issue. In fact, most unreported violent acts are due to the victim’s desire to protect the related offender. The media usually develops news stories and articles revolving around the most sensational cases of family violence; their representation of the sensationalism of the issue is of no uniqueness. But due to the sensual aspect that the media seeks in presenting stories to the public, people are not aware of the commonality and routine violence that occurs
