A hate crime is considered as crimes that "are committed by individuals or organizations of people who engage in antisocial and illegal behavior and pose a danger to agents of the criminal justice system and to the general public" (Lushbaugh & Weston, 2016). Also, hate crimes are often directed toward African Americans, Asians, Hispanics, Jews, gays, and even the U.S. government, whether it is a single individual or hate groups. A great example of a hate crime is when an individual or group commits an act of arson by burning down a place of worship, such as a Muslim mosque. This form of hate crime occurred on December 12, 2015, when Carl Dial was arrested for suspicion of a hate crime, burglary, and arson when a mosque in Coachella Valley

A 2005 study conducted by National Institute of Justice, found that the Federal Government and all but one state, Wyoming, have laws related to hate crimes. A consistent problem identified by this study is there in no consistency in defining what constitutes a hate crime. (Carrie F. Mulford, Ph.D., & Michael Shively, Ph.D., Hate Crime in America: The Debate Continues, 257, Nat’l Inst Just., (2007). “The Federal Bureau of Investigation defines hate crime—also called bias crime—as “a criminal offense committed against a person, property, or society that is motivated, in whole or in part, by the offender’s bias against a race, religion, disability, sexual orientation, or ethnicity/national origin.” ld.

The trend for health care and hospitals is a movement towards a larger outpatient system of care while lowering the number of inpatient admissions. The health care system has made small changes towards this type of service for about a decade. Henry Ford Wyandotte Hospital should continue these efforts and implement the use of the Patient-centered medical home model. This model concentrates on patient care with a comprehensive, total patient care strategy, while lowering the incidence of emergency room use and lowering the number of times a patient is admitted to the hospital (Robeznieks, 2015). The health care team will evaluate the patient, monitor their condition while educating them about their specific needs and how to provide their own self-care at home.

Hate crimes are difficult to fathom, primarily because they involve the unprovoked physical attacking and, sometimes, murder of people based on race and ethnicity. A more formal definition of hate crimes is presented by Shepard (2017, p. 285). As he writes, “a hate crime is a criminal act that is motivated by extreme prejudice,” This is a very good, concise and accurate definition, nevertheless, hate crimes are not the outcome of unimaginable heights of discrimination. Most people have prejudices and many have stereotypes regarding others, whether it be racial or class stereotypes. Nobody is completely lacking in any form, shape or type of prejudice but, the much greater percentage does not physically attack, beat or murder those whom they
Profile of a Hate Crime Offender Sterilized from emotion, hate crime, also called bias crime, is those offenses motivated in part or singularly by personal prejudice against other because of a diversity-race, sexual orientation, religion, ethnicity/national origin, or disability.
