Argumentative Essay: The High School Murder Case

What makes us better to determine to take someone’s live? Everyone has been taught, murder is wrong, so why is it we basically go and murder that person. Murder in any form including capital punishment does not make it right. Though, evil has no remorse for crimes they commit they should sit in a prison without any opportunity for parole.

Mariah Woods sparked a nationwide Amber alert when she disappeared from her room after her mother, Kristy Woods, put her to bed on Sunday.

When does a serial killer stop? Is it when they are caught or locked down? Very few have turned themselves in. Other serial killers would love to be caught but they always turn into Casper before the police could even arrive to arrest. The thing that blows my mind is that most serial killers find it very exciting to take the life of an indecent human-being and that fact that they don’t lose any sleep is beyond sad.

There is definitely an abundance of inaccuracy in stories and time lines, leading to many questions and theories of what truly happened on the 13th of January, 1999. On that January day Hae Min Lee, a senior at Woodlawn High School, was supposedly murdered by Adnan Syed. This murder case has many suspects and witnesses, but the star witness was Jay Wilds. Jay’s testimony was crucial for the state to bring Adnan Syed to trial. Although the state used Jay’s testimony, that doesn't mean it was truthful or correctly used in a court of law. Jay’s testimonies, stories, and statements in fact have many contradictions and changes. The difference in the stories Jay gives are going lead many to questions to why the court used his story to put Adnan Syed

The deadly shootings at military sites in Tennessee illustrate the threat that FBI officials have warned about: violence directed against a vulnerable government target by a lone gunman with apparent terrorist aspirations.

In the years since 1992, school shootings have claimed an estimated 350 lives in the United States. And as the number of school shootings is increasing every year, school officials are more concerned than ever for student’s safety. This concern has spurred a number of movements to improve the security of all kinds of schools, whether it be daycares, high schools, or elementary schools. One general plan proposed to protect schools from armed gunmen is having select teachers armed with concealed handguns, placed strategically through the school, ready to react to active shooters. This plan is one of a kind, new, and unique. Previous to this, many schools have hired expensive security guards, used intrusive electronic security systems, or most frighteningly, had no

A 12 year old boy faces grown up murder charges for the murder of his father’s fiancé who happened to be eight months pregnant. Jordan Brown who was 11 years old at the time, was responsible for the death of Kenzie Houk and the fetus that was still in her womb. On February of 2009, Kenzie Houk was found on her bed with a bullet through her head. Many suspects were investigated but all of the evidence pointed to the young boy as the primary suspect. There were no witnesses to connect him to the murder but when investigators interrogated the victim’s oldest daughter, who was 7, she stated that she heard a “boom” before leaving for school with Jordan. The youngest daughter of the victim, who was 4, was the person who discovered the body on the

On the afternoon of January 13th, 1999, in Baltimore, Hae goes missing after school. Six weeks later, her body is discovered in Leakin Park, and authorities show up to arrest Adnan for her murder. During interrogation, it becomes clear that Adnan cannot seem to remember where he was or what he was doing that afternoon. However, one of Adnan’s friends, well acquaintance rather, Jay, tells the detectives that he knows everything that happened that day and essentially took part in the burying/disposing of Hae’s body. So it is then decided that Jay will testify against Adnan in court, and his testimony will be what the State is solely basing their case off of. But there is a huge problem with this, Jay’s story is extremely choppy and inconsistent. Each episode in the podcast analyzes a different aspect of Adnan’s case, because to be honest, his case is very ambiguous, and he may very will be as innocent as he

Dominique, I enjoyed your post this week, and I agree less-than-lethal weapons are an excellent alternative to deadly force options like firearms. The term non-lethal weapons is outdated among the law enforcement community, because like you stated, when less-than-lethal weapons are deployed there is still a risk of causing death. When the term non-lethal is applied to less-than-lethal weapons, I believe it is confusing for people without any law enforcement background, especially if a less-than-lethal weapon is utilized in a use of force incident that results in a suspect’s death. Additionally, training and education should be used to ensure the correct less-than-lethal option is applied to de-escalate the situation.

Nowadays we see in our schools. The shooting case are increasing. Many people lost their children during gunshot.For a parents their children are more important to them. Some people don’t want to send their children to school after the gun shooting. They don’t want to loose their kids. But then it effects on their study and their carrier. Who’s parent said that the study is more important than life. They know the life is more important. On February 14,2018 a shooting took place at Marjory stoneman Douglas High school in Florida. Many children were killed in the Attack. I think teacher should have gun at school. So, our teacher can help students. Many student’s life will safe with arming teachers the students will feel more safe, because they know that if gun shooter came in their school, then their teacher can save them. But teacher should attend firearms training. They should know how to use a gun with right way. Also they should know using improvised weapons to delay a shooter. Also it’s not good to just sit there and let shooter kill the student. We need to shop this.

Albert Einstein said “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” Are we judging a student’s intelligence by these common core subjects? We learned at a very young age that we are all different, so why can we not be tested differently. Is there only a certain way we can be smart. Although the United States gives everyone a chance to test, which is good, but brings down the overall ranking as a nation, because of standardized testing, the long hours of school and the fact that children are being left behind causes the American school system to plummet.

Steven Avery should get appeal. Because he deserve one. Truth should be found at all the time. Truth can't hide. All the trial was unfair to steven avery.I think he's too strong add it up because what happened to his past that reflect now I think just decide that Steve has to get appeal. Just by watching a video that make me feel like he is not guilty of anything also he should not be in trail. If someone come a talk with you before they die is that mean you kill them or they will have a case on you i think that is not fair and nor right.

In episode 12 of Serial,  the narrator describes the vast amount of inconsistencies the evidence has against Adnan Syed. For example, his friend Jay has given several variations of stories on his whereabouts the night of her death. Serial digs deeper and searches telephone history, proving Jay was being dishonest. This one example of miscommunication and false evidence is a big enough

The Death Penalty has a powerful meaning to it; it’s not just a punishment for those criminals who commit a horrific crime. The Death Penalty offers the execution, gas chamber, lethal injection, hanging, and firing squad. The capital punishment is a topic that can cause arguments because some say it helps and some say it cannot help in anyway. The death penalty has saved lives after an execution, but it has caused many issues for families.

Capital punishment is beneficial to the community. It provides the society with a sense of security. The death penalty contains a positive influence on the future. A heavily debated topic is, “Does capital punishment deter people more than a life sentence to prison?” An explanation on why will be covered later. An issues many people have with capital punishment, is when it is just or not just. This is a topic many stray away from, because it is difficult to decide. Finding the right consequence for an action is difficult. While this paper is for the use of capital punishment, it is clearly not needed for every crime, or even every murder. Overusing capital punishment, such as using it for every murder, will negatively impact the country, and not using it has the same effect.
