Juvenile State Prison: Administration Of Prison

Imagine witnessing your parents’ brutal murder right in front of you. Your father is forced to his knees and shoot in the back of his head, execution-style. Your mother’s teeth lie on the floor from the bullet propelled through the side of her head. The fiend proceeds to move forward and shoot her brains out. For Carroll, this was a reality. Robert Acuna barbarically murdered James and Joyce Carroll. What do you think this savage deserves? In America, adolescents can be tried as adults at ages as young as 10. They can be sent to an adult prison with adult cellmates, trapped in an adult environment that they just are not ready for. The prison environment is very influential and may change adolescents for the worse. Exposure to adult criminals

In America we sometimes house juveniles and adults in the same prison system. In the state of Wisconsin in 2014, we have incarcerated 121 minors into the adult system. While incarcerating these juveniles in the prison system some may wonder how does it affect a juvenile, Also what problems do they face while in prison and lastly, how has their life change for better or worse after they are released back into society.

State run jail are one of the three local control of jails alternatives. State run is an operated jail system that is ran in four states such as Vermont, Delaware, Rhode Island, and Connecticut. These four states have full operational responsibility for jails. This is for the exception of Alaska and five locally operated jails. Cooperative regional arrangements is local control of jails that focus more on the local or state control. The states that was the first to adopt the regional jails are Virginia, North Dakota, West Virginia, South Dakota, Nebraska, and Kansas. The arrangements takes place when jurisdiction is willing to contact with neighboring cities and countries to discuss the housing of prisoners. If the government decides that no

Children delinquency prevention and reduction shouldn’t be as complicated as it is today. It is said that many juveniles are becoming formally involved in the juvenile justice system due to having some sort of learning disability and/or because of behavior and discipline problems with his/her school also known as the school to prison pipeline. Kids with learning disabilities were detained more frequently and frequently came across detention centers compared to kids that don’t have disabilities. When an educator gives up on a child, the child will tend to have a negative self-perception and have a low frustration tolerance that’ll unfortunately be a factor to his/her future delinquent actions. Rejection of peers, low self-worth, dropping out

There are so many problem in the Unites State Prison system because of overcrowding. First I am going to talk about what cause the overcrowding in the Prison system. After that I will talk what are the affect we are facing now days for overcrowding in the prison system. Than what should we do to stop prison to get overcrowding and how is going to help out society.

"The most common rate is 90%, though some prisons are able to snag a 100% promise from their local governments" (Mathews 2). Contracts stating the minimum capacity rate of the prison between the government and private prisons exist for all private prisons, which seems sensible because how else would the company guarantee profits. However the quotas these contracts call for presents a problem because "[w]hile incarceration statistics have skyrocketed, crime rates have increased much more slowly" (Smith 3). A cause for the rise in jailed rates is the quota presented by the private prison industry. Private prisons seek not to reform prisoners, but to increase profits, and so these prisons run like businesses. The largest private prison corporation, Corrections Corporation of America, have uncomprependle

USELESS JUVENILE INCARCERATION SYSTEM 2A Broken Juvenile Detention SystemThe juvenile detention system is broken because all troubled teens should be treated for instead of punished, rising recidivism rates are caused by punishment itself. The youth spends a lot of time that could be spent in a classroom behind bars. This issue is like a butterfly effect affecting society. The youth should be getting treated instead of being punished, serving punishment is the root of the problem. Justice cannot be served with racism floating throughout the air, racism pollutes the verdict.First off, wasted time is a wasted effort and time is something that can’t be received back.Juveniles are humans and have minds, actions, and feelings like every human being, it has to be kept in mind that control can’t be kept over everyone. Think about owning a restaurant, logically an owner won’t want to remain open in business if work is slow, get very little customers, receive bad reviews, use tools in an unsafe manner endangering people around you. Well I wouldsay a detention facility is very similar. If it’s not bringing any benefit to the youth or their families, then what is the purpose of having these facilities as a form of punishment? Facts are provided based off some of these facilities major flaws. “Specifically, the report will show that these facilities are frequently: (1) dangerous, (2) ineffective, (3) unnecessary, (4) obsolete, (5) wasteful, and (6) inadequate. A subsequent chapter addresses the question of public safety,finding that states where juvenile confinement was sharply reduced in recent years experienced more favorable trends in juvenile crime than jurisdictions which maintained or increased their correctional facility populations....” (Mendel, 2013). Logically, based on the results provided it issafe to say that not confining juveniles will show a positive outcome. The juvenile crime rates are favorably lower for cities and help maintain correctional facility population to a norm. Solid

Juveniles in solitary confinement are away from all human contact and isolated for a long period of time. These juveniles in confinement are isolated from others for hours, days, and weeks. When a juvenile violates a prison regulation they must be punished with solitary confinement. The corrections department believe that solitary confinement is necessary for juveniles because is prevents them from fighting with others and protects them from harming themselves. The problem with teenagers in solitary confinement is many of them are diagnosed with mental health problems. Another problem, are these teenagers have suicidal thoughts because they are locked up in a small room where they are alone for hours or days and no communication.

"The Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) had $562.2 million in prison expenditures in 2010. However, the state also had more than $7.2 million in prison-related costs outside the department’s budget. The total cost of Indiana’s prisons—to incarcerate an average daily population of 38,417—was therefore $569.5 million, of which 1.3 percent were costs outside the corrections budget.

Transfers decision were based on the severity of the offense. Also, transfers decision were made by invidually judge who weighed out if this young offender will endanger the public safety. Also, in some states, it was left to the prosecutors or by the legislators who decided whether to try a juvenile as adult. Another method to transfer juveniles to adult court was the judicial waiver, which is the most transfer method. About twenty-five percent of juvenile offenders are prosecuted in adult court. Juveniles tried as adult can be safety to the community, because juveniles prosecuted as adult had a higher rates of rearrests for serious felony such as robbery or assault. The negative consequences of youths being tried as an adult, they are expose

The prison life should not be the life that a child should be stuck in, but rather be rehabilitated through various programs depending on the crime and the age of the juvenile. Children who grow up in the prison, or jail systems, are far too often released a better criminal than when they went in, often referred to as prisonization. They are taught how to better conceal drugs and weapons, cover up crimes, commit offenses amongst thousands of other heinous crimes. “This process not only labels youth as gang members but instills in them identities and worldviews that rationalize their own incarceration, extending the prison's ability to categorize people as carceral subjects far beyond the penitentiary gates (Lopez). Juveniles can often be imprisoned

“I used to believe are our future but now I realize that this, sadly isn’t the reality. Through laws that treat kids like adults, the government is throwing away the future of children in this country.” (D. Lee) An estimated 200,000 juveniles are tried as adults. The term juvenile refers to any young person under the age of 18. For most states in the United States, the age of majority is 18. While there are many things that juveniles are unable to do until they reach the age of 18, being charged as an adult for a crime is not amongst those things in some states. Juveniles are not allowed to vote, drink alcohol, or sign a legal contract, yet they can be charged and treated like adults when it comes to them being

In contrast, I prefer not to work with adult inmates. I have worked with almost every population: from infants to elderly, mental health and child psychology; but, nothing worries me more than this population. I am not worried necessarily in regards to safety; however, where my uncertainty lies in my ability to help my clients in such an environment. Will I be so overwhelmed with fear of possible violent occurrences where I am inept of ethically providing unbiased services? I understand my own personal biases and incompetency; I would not want to put a potential client at risk of not being provided adequate services due to my

After discussions with Greg Denning, Chuck Manning, Elizabeth Charif and Diana Harrison my concern is the Programs Module 07 portion of the AIMS2's portal is not built correctly, it appears that business requirements were not followed during development, and Dev did not update the business analyst on the enhancements being made to AISM2 Module 07, resulting in disconnects for the user. The Adult Inmate Management System is not my area of expertise, nor is the work of business analyst, however, I am eager to learn what is necessary to perform the work being asked of me.

Just as OJ Simpson got away with murder using his money, many juveniles do the same by taking advantage of their age. For example, Andrew Golden and Mitchell Johnson were able to kill four students and teacher, while also wounding ten others in a school shooting. These boys were thirteen and eleven years old. This act of violence was carefully planned, thought out, and executed, showing that the boys not only had the mental capacity to act on their own and steal weapons from family members, but also to kill other people and know the consequences. These two were both released from prison after only seven and nine years, on their twenty-first birthdays, which is absolutely absurd. If they were eighteen years old and committed the same crimes, they would’ve had
