Personal Narrative: A Career In Criminal Justice

On 04/18/2016 I assisted Sgt. Patterson on a traffic stop in the 900 block of East K-53 HWY, Sumner County, Kansas. When I drove past I observed an older four door passenger vehicle stopped on the north side of the road with Sgt. Patterson's patrol vehicle behind it with emergency equipment activated. I turned around of K--53 and pulled in behind Sgt. Patterson, I activated my rear emergency lights and walked to the passenger side window of Sgt. Patterson's patrol vehicle. In the vehicle he had stopped I could see two white males sitting in the front driver and passenger seats, Sgt. Patterson was already back in his vehicle and was running the occupants information with SUCO 911. Sgt. Patterson told me that the passenger was moving around

I have a question about my classes for spring of 2018, I want to know the total classes that I need to take for me to graduate. Plus if you can help tell how many classes I need from my Major of Criminal Justice, minor Chicano Studies, and the blocks. I have a list of classes that I think I can take for next semester but I don’t want to get a wrong one. Right now I am taking 4 classes of Chicano studies for my minor I don’t know if I need one more or not?

Michigan’s great name and ranking would be enough for nearly every applicant to want to Michigan Law. However, when I started looking closer at law schools and what they stand for and areas of expertise I found that Michigan aligns with my belief and interest more than any other law school I have seen. Not only is the reputation of the school so good that it is recognized everywhere but the tradition and location of the school is just as impressive. While I would also enjoy escaping the hot Texas climate but the values and of the school are something that I love even more about the school. The belief in interdisciplinary learning and actions is something that I think is important for being able to work on some of the most difficult issues

I currently have an Associate degree in Criminal Justice and have attended Professional Military Education (PME) courses in Security Forces Apprentice and Security Forces Leadership courses. Moreover, I was selected to attend the MWD Handler and Kennel Master/Trainer courses at Lackland Air Force Base (AFB) Texas. I have also attended the Non Commissioned Officer Academy Management Course at Petersen AFB, Colorado that enhanced leadership capabilities. Lastly, I was selected to attend Yuma Joint Forces Regional K9 Training with U.S. Marine/Navy in Yuma Proving Ground, Arizona in preparation for combat mission in

If a young person in your life has been charged with a crime, you're likely dealing with a wealth of unexpected stresses and pressures. A good starting point is to talk with local juvenile attorneys and ask some questions. Kirsten Swanson - Attorney at Law is a juvenile attorney who has been representing clients in the Juneau, Alaska, area for nearly two decades. She understands the stresses and pressures you and your family are probably facing, and she's here to give you the exceptional legal representation you need.

“The Sheriff´s office has issued a mandatory evacuation order for your area.” A phone call like that will get you out of bed in a hurry, and it’s something you don’t get used too. I grew up in Ramona, California, a small rural town with not much to offer. Mountains, farm animals, hillbillies and fires… all a part of Ramona.

Hey how are you doing? My name is Sheterrica Lenard and I've been working since I was 16 years old and I have all the experience that is required for this position. I have 5 years of experience in supervising and coordinating work of other correctional officers, I also can drive passenger vehicles and trucks used to transport inmates to other institutions, courtrooms, hospitals and work sites. I counsel inmates and respond to legitimate questions, concerns, and requests. I have also participate in required job training. After being in school for 8 years, majoring inn this field, I know I meet all required standards for this position. Although not all police departments require their detectives to possess a college degree, the shift toward a

My decision to become a Criminal Justice major was not a simple one. My high school cross country coach was also a Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Officer who told me that I had a very “police-like” attitude, which ignited a spark in my brain. Initially I thought it would be pretty cool to chase people down, shoot guns, and have my picture plastered on the front page of every newspaper for taking down the biggest drug cartel in the United States although my mind was still set on majoring in Athletic Training.

My second week at the court house was long but eye opening. I learned so much about the criminal justice system. I leaned that each procedure and each role a person play is crucial to someone life. On Tuesday, the day was short but still alarming. I came in and shadow one of the clerks as she was preparing for court. As the clerk was setting up for court I remember trying to recognize which department is what on each traffic ticket. I felt confuse, but the clerk show who was trooper, SUNY New Paltz police, and state police/ She remind that I will eventually learn who is who and how to set up for court. I felt better about what she said and I was ready for court. I notice that court will be short today because we did not have many cases. I began

There are so many life experiences that play a role in my return to college to seek my bachelor's

For this question, I would like to use a combination of my real world experiences with probation officers and what I have read in this unit's read section. While working in the Correction's field, I have been introduced to many interesting people. A few of these people have been probation officers that conduct classes for the inmates inside of our facility. Now we all know that in the real world the book is not something that is always followed as it should be. In the perfect scenario, everything would be done by the book and have the perfect ending. However, this is sadly something that does not happen often. Many probation officer that I have spoken with tell me stories of backstabbing among the ranks, close calls, and even horror stories.

As explained by Roberts (2012), doctorate programs often require the completion of a dissertation in order to demonstrate that you are capable of planning, conducting, writing, and defending an original research study. However, throughout the course of completing my dissertation I am expecting to experience a number of high and low points. As I begin my dissertation journey, I must admit that I am quite terrified, which is likely stemming from my uncertainty as to what I want do my dissertation on. Personally, I am having a difficult time choosing a topic that I find interesting, in addition to considering the feasibility, whether the topic is researchable, and ensuring it is aligned with the proper guidelines so that the research proposal will be accepted.

I chose law enforcement, because it is all that I grew up around it all my live and I have always found it very interesting. Once I am old enough to I plan on enrolling in to the police academe. I know some of the things you have to do, are to complete a physical training test to completely pass the academe, but that is all I know with academe besides the basics of learning of what to do as a officer. I have an idea of what police officers do, they will run drug and drunken test. As a cop you make or get warrants to search though peoples house, vehicles or anything that you think you need to search that item that person owns. Some cops have to attend court to sometimes to report on the case or other times just there to put the person in jail if they are convicted guilty by the judge and the jury. You have cop on patrol, drug task force and on the warrants division.

As I am entering my last two weeks at the agency, my workload is slowly decreasing. Monday, July 25, 2016 my duties for the day consists of filing, printing home pages for the clients, creating an addendum, and meeting with two clients. The most fulfilling part of my day was meeting with two male clients, one is a registered gang member and the other is a recovering addict. Looking back from my start of the internship, I would have been frightened to meet with a registered gang member on my own but as my time progressed I am now confident in my newly developed skills that I can conduct an effective meeting.

My dream job is to be a forensic anthropologist. This job will combine my love of science and the challenge of a mystery.

May assist in excavating and relocating human remains. Determining time of death, assessing trauma to the bones, and presenting expert testimony in court.
