Gaston County Jail Field Trip

Visiting the Prairie du Chien Correctional Facility was a truly eye opening experience. I could go on all day about the things that I saw, heard, and learned. Immediately following the experience, I called my mom to tell her all about it. She really doesn’t understand what is going on in the system, which is frustrating for me, so I talked to my Grandpa instead, as he seems to know a little more and be more open to new information and ideas.

On November 5, 2015 at approximately 1000 hours I took a jail tour of the Santa Cruz Correctional facility on Water Street, with Melinda Payne as my tour guide. There were a few things that stood out to me during the jail tour. First, I observed how clean and orderly the jail was. There were no bad odors and the walls, floors, and windows were well kept. Personally, I try to maintain a clean and organized workspace therefore the jail environment fit me well. Second, I noticed the overall size of facility. The jail is relatively small in size and was broken into different sections. Personally, I like this layout because I believe it allows for better communication to inmates and staff, better response to major incidents, and quick ability to

Andersonville Prison epitomized the ultimate crime against humanity. The atrocities that transpired in this confederate prison sparked reaction and outrage at the conclusion of the Civil War.

On 7/31/15 at approximately 1947 hours I was assigned to Tower 14 at the Lower Buckeye jail located at the address listed above.

On page one, in paragraph four, Dr. King claims that he could not wait around in Atlanta knowing how what violence and discrimination was currently happening in Birmingham. However, if he could not stand for not doing anything to help, why did he not join the freedom riders movement, which surfaced many of the problems happening in Birmingham?

Wabash County jail was built in 1979, making it older than Miami County jail by 30 years. This facility holds 72 inmates at full capacity while Miami County holds 240, making it significantly smaller in size. Despite the differences, there are some similarities involving housing, visitation, and environmental conditions.

It’s has been one year since two NYPD officers were gunned down execution style while sitting in their marked patrol car in Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. The ambush horror was met with anger and sadness across the nation as two innocent lives were lost just solely because they wore blue.

Throughout the nineteenth century, penology was characterized by a debate between two 'schools'. The first was the system of "solitary" and "segregation" proposed by the Pennsylvania penitentiary. The second, that of which will be discussed in this paper, the "silent" and "congregate" system was designed for the Auburn penitentiary in New York State.

Rock and roll has many influences that evolved it into what it is today. Blues had a significant influence on the development of the music, as well as some classical ideas of the solo performer. Through these influences, rock and roll was born.

As part of Coach’s direct marketing strategy, the growing number of entering to the Coach’s websites provide an opportunity to increase the size of databases of each country’s households.

Of the many social issues that plague American society, the issue over the legalization of Marijuana remains as one of the most controversial topics. Marijuana, also known as Cannabis is the most widely used illicit drug in the United States. According to national surveys conducted by the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA), “marijuana use rose from 4.1 percent to 9.5 percent of the U.S. adult population in the past decade.” The increase of Marijuana use created an ongoing debate over whether it should be federally legalized or not. Supporters of marijuana legalization emphasize the benefit of marijuana as a treatment option for some life-threatening illness and claims that legalizing the drug will boost the economy

According to Brad Plumer in the article Throwing Children in Prison Turns out To be a Really Bad Idea, “The United States still puts more children and teenagers in juvenile detention than any other developed nations in the world, with about 70,000 detained on any given day in 2010. And as it turns out, this is very likely a bad idea” (Plumer, 15). Juvenile delinquents are children under eighteen years old that commit illegal crimes. Juvenile delinquents are kids that are likely to come from an urban area where they lack education opportunities. They are defiant, hostile and impulsive. They started to commit crimes because of the lack of economic opportunities they were facing. For example, in urban areas they do not have any jobs
