Misdemeanor Lessons

The date of the offense was July 19, 2014. It was a night full of mistakes and bad decisions, which I will never make again. The charges that I have been cited with are 1 Class B Misdemeanor (Driving under the Influence), 1 Class B Misdemeanor (Unlawful Consumption), 1 Class B Misdemeanor (Possession of Paraphernalia), 1 Class B Misdemeanor (Possession of Marijuana) and 1 Third Degree Felony (Possession). Since that night I distanced the people who were bringing me down in life and they ended up dropping out of my life as they only wanted to bring me down and I would not allow that any longer. Since the night of the arrest I have not participated in taking any narcotics or any illegal substances since. I have been extremely focused on my work and making

Most of my information found is from the source “Proposition 47, Criminal Sentences Misdemeanors Penalties, and Initiative Statute”. This website informs the details of the issue like how the taxes are being charged and sent to prison to hold in many intimates (Proposition 47, Criminal Sentences Misdemeanors Penalties, and Initiative Statute) . Also, that the money being spent in the intimate is very pricey .The purpose of proposition 47 is to recreate certain felonies into misdemeanors (Proposition 47, Criminal Sentences Misdemeanors Penalties, and Initiative Statute). “The proposition also advises that it will also release many intimates to the public if passed.”(Proposition 47, Criminal Sentences Misdemeanors Penalties, and Initiative Statute)

(oxford dictionaries) so being assertive with the children who act this way to try to make them refrain from the behavior, that may result in earlier curfews, or making these offenders go to boot camp.

Skip Hollandsworth candidly explores the subjects of juvenile crime and sentencing in the electronic long form newspaper article, “The Prisoner”. The purpose of the essay is to inform the reader about juvenile sentencing and to persuade the audience that there are clear problems with aspects of the U.S. prison system. The article is easily accessible to a large audience because it is online. Hollandsworth takes into account that his audience, mostly consisting of Texas Monthly readers, may already have pre-established notions about the topic, so he considers other sides while still supporting his argument. Edwin Debrow, a preteen member of the Crips, committed a murder when he was 12-years old and received a 27-year sentence through the

North Carolina is the only state that prosecute 16 and 17 year olds that is charged with criminal offenses in the criminal justice system. These criminal records can have severe collateral consequences especially for minorities. While having a grave fiscal impact on individuals, families and communities. Due to this, Durham County introduced a Misdemeanor Diversion program (MDP) which is a 90 day program that tries to avoid a first arrest for low-risk youth in Durham- County. The purpose of this program is to keep the youth out of the adult criminal system.

The government, instead of ensuring proper implementation of the rehabilitation and correction of the children in conflict with the law is shredding its responsibility through this retrograde law, holding the children accountable for the failures of our juvenile correctional institutions. This would never succeed as a deterrent and would only serve to ostracize them. This amendment to the preexisting law, not only lacks a rational social objective but also constitutional validity. The selective and unequal treatment of children between the age group of 16-18 years clearly violates the fundamental rights guaranteed under Article 14 extending equal protection of law and equality before the law and Article 15 (3) of the Constitution allowing

Crimes and Misdemeanors reveals a struggle between a man of little faith and the immoral path he has chosen.

On January 22, 2009, I pled guilty to a Class B misdemeanor DUI charge in Logan, Utah. The offense occurred in November of 2008. On the day of the offense, I had consumed alcohol after work with some friends but felt safe to drive. I was an inexperienced drinker and used poor judgment. When I was pulled over my blood alcohol content was below the legal limit, but I was still cited with a DUI. At first I felt like the victim of injustice but soon realized I was actually the victim of my own poor judgment. I accepted the consequences, pled guilty, and made the decision to never find myself in questionable circumstances again. I was fined and sentenced to two days in jail, one year probation, and required to complete an alcohol treatment course.

Imagine not being able to do anything, having to sit in jail, and not having any education any longer. You wouldn't want that for a child that would not have an education higher than 7th grade. We should not allow the people to decide that a 13-year-old should go to jail where he didn't actually do it, he has learned a lesson from this already, they blamed Tj for the mistake that Melvin and RW had made. Finally, and Tj was forced to stay. I don't want Tj to go to jail, do you? Tj learned a lesson from the traumatic experience he has already had with the trial and from the beating of Melvin and RW. Also, by the white men, this has occurred because Tj is black. If they don't think they are white they might be wearing a black mask. To look black

The circumstances that contributed to my inability to meet the required gpa was the fact that the second semester was my first real semester as a student. Throughout the semester I was dealing with the after math of my car accident. I was called by law enforcement staff to testify against the man that hit me. We went to court and the state declared him giulty and was sent to jail because he had no assets to pay my medical bills. The case was solved but my medical bills were not payed by the man that hit me. My family and I cannot offord to pay my medical bills, which added stress to my plate. I carry a big responsibility at home. Due to my mothers illness she is not able to take care of the household, so that responibility is left for me to

Hi to whom it may concern, I Arword Resima a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) student currently waiting to take my state boards test so I may begin to work in my assigned field. I am writing this letter to get an approval or a waiver from The Department of Health Board of Nursing. So, I may be able to take my exam. In the year of 2013 I went into great depression to the point I became suicidal, this is what lead me to commit the crime I was charged with. I was charged with a third degree felony. I only had to serve six months I received time served and the judge withheld adjudication. During my time in jail I realized what great mistake I have made and how I was willing to end my life because of the pressures of life. Since then I have become

Late November I made a mistake that has now made my college workload immense. While attending the University of Nebraska at Kearney as a full-time student, alongside with an internship at the Kearney Area Community Foundation, working fifteen hours a week, teaching swimming lessons at the Y along with subbing as a guard, society may image my schedule is booked. Although, in my past, I have made many respectable decisions and I have made poor ones, ultimately learning right from wrong. Provided, the circumstances of my MIP could have been easily avoided if I would have used common sense, for example not consuming alcohol beverages on campus. Now, with a Minor in Possession on my record, for the time being, I have realized the impact this incident has had on my academics, personal life, and countless other circumstances dealing with my everyday life.

Alternative punishments in lieu of prison for minor crimes, such as minor drug charges, will

Juvenile Delinquency is the participation of illegal behavior by a minor who falls under a statutory age limit. A delinquent is a minor who commits a crime or a status offense. A status offense is conduct that is illegal only because the child is under age i.e. smoking cigarettes (Senna 10, 20). The cases of Eric Smith, Lionel Tate, and an unidentified NJ child are similar only because, they are guilty of killing another child, but the Criminal Justice System treated and punished them very differently. In August 1993 in Savona, New York 13 year old Eric Smith killed 4 year old Derrick Robie. Smith lured Robie into the woods and strangled, beat with large rocks, and sodomized Robie. Smith was questioned by police and kept changing some

I do believe an offender can become a victim. It can happen instantaneously in which the roles can be turns. Put in simple terms if a man beats his wife and continues to do it over and over, one day she’ll eventually get tired of the situation and retaliate. Women who have been battered or beaten over the years suffer from what has been identified as battered women’s syndrome. Women who retaliate and attacks back then becomes the offenders and the males becomes the victims. It may not happen in the same instance he’s beating his wife, she may plan it when he’s not aware and become a victim to the crime she planned.
