In 1788, the ratification of the United States Constitution sought to establish the fundamental aspects of the nation’s government, laws, and protections of its citizens’ unalienable rights. Robert G. McCloskey’s The American Supreme Court (2016) explains that, during this period, the prospects of the Supreme Court were essentially unknown.

As such, McCloskey (2016) traces the country’s judicial history by highlighting the Court’s great transitional periods regarding state rights, nation rights, property rights, and slavery. By the start of the 20th century, however, discrepancies began to emerge with the rise of

Delattre describes in “Some Reflections on Success and failure in Competitive Athletics” that competitive athletics require a touchstone relationship of competitors’ i.e. that competitors have a moral and logical obligation to not engage in cheating.

Though the event was unlawful, it was argued that the incident was not driven by racism. However, Trooper Encinia has worked with some that have committed unlawful acts that were driven by racism: Sheriff R. Glenn Smith.

In 2007, Conrad Black, a prominent journalist, publisher, and investor was convicted of three counts of fraud and one count of obstruction of justice. He was sentenced to six and a half years in prison and ordered to pay a fine of $125,000. Later on, Mr. Black had two of the counts of fraud overturned on appeal.

After Black had stepped down as the CEO of Hollinger, it was realized that he had been engaging in fraudulent activities. For instance, he had paid Hollinger’s executives a lot of money
