PSYCHOLOGY FINAL.
Q1: WHAT CHARACTERISTICS AND PERSONALITY TRAITS MAY HAVE LED THIS PERSON TO A LIFE OF CRIME?
Sante Kimes background is filled with a lot of intrigue. Much of her past is skewed with stories woven with pathological lies, hard to discern from the real truth. One of Sante’s claims is that her mother was an Oklahoman prostitute driven to Los Angeles by the Dust Bowl, and so Sante ran amok in the streets of L.A. However, court documentation and “close acquaintance” corroboration point her to being “Sandra Louise Singhrs” from Oklahoma City, hailing from a respectable family who was fed up with her “wild child” antics (shoplifting, petty theft). She was adopted by a family from Carson City, Nevada, and she went to high school there.

After going to prison, Sante started to start killing witnesses to her crime, with the help of her new partner, her son Kenny. They killed three witnesses to their crimes total: David Kazdin (who was her friend and legitimate business partner), Elmer Golmgren, and Sayed Bilal Ahmed. The duo, however, weren’t caught until the murder of wealthy, elderly, New York socialite Irene Silverman. After conning Silverman into letting them tenant in her apartments, they decided they wanted to steal her fortune using their usual conning methods. Silverman was suspicious, and wrote notes on the two and how she feared for her safety with them nearby. She even made comments to some of the cleaning ladies who worked for her about them. The night before she was to have the duo evicted, she mysteriously vanished. There was no traces of forensic evidence to support murder, not even a body to find. However, with their previous track records, Sante and Kenny were taken in as suspects, and eventually arrested with eyewitness testimony to their character and the notes Silverman took on the two. They argued their innocence, saying they were wrongfully accused in court. After more pressure, however, Kenny confessed to the murders, saying his mother helped in them too. Sante continued to deny any sort of connections to the murders, saying
The Dred Scott Decision of 1857 ruled that African-Americans, even ones who were not enslaved, were not protected under The Constitution and could never be citizens. This brings up questions that will be answered in this paper. Should slaves be American citizens? Is it morally correct for one to own another human? Does the Dred Scott decision contradict The Declaration of Independence which states that every man is created equal?

Todd Bowles uses a hybrid defense scheme. Utilizing both 3-4 and 4-3 defensive fronts. Bowles likes to use his outside linebackers to blitz and try and get after the quarterback. The middle linebackers are used as run defenders and covering TE, RB and sometimes slot receivers. Bowles likes to dial up exotic blitzes to try and fool the QB and disguise where the blitz is actually coming from. In Bowles’ scheme he likes to use large lengthy cornerbacks to play man coverage on the outside and in the slot. Bowles’ defense is dependent on having cornerbacks who have the ability to play in man coverage and play press coverage and disrupt the receivers routes on the line of scrimmage to enable the pass rushers the chance to get to the QB quickly. Bowles likes to have a big strong outsider backer who can play on the strong side and set the edge for running plays. The weak side backer is smaller

As I was reading James Eunice’s biography tonight, it struck me with a feeling of despair, but, also, with a desire to spread the gospel. Throughout our lives, there are many moments that we just let pass by, not sharing God’s word with those which do not know him and later feeling regret for our actions. While this is accurate for a lot of people, from what I have read and heard about James, he was beyond doubt a remarkable young man because he shared God’s word every day with anyone who would listen. If everyone was like James and loved people, life, and God just as much as he did, I believe the world would be a way better place. So, from this moment on, I am going to make it a point to try and be just as remarkable as he was and share God’s kindness, love, and forgiveness with everyone that I meet.

It is quite rare for me to have someone else doing the coloring for my works, unless we are talking about an artist of the caliber of Richard Isanove. His style, although I am not particularly fond of digital coloring, provides the right plasticity to any element; everything comes together thanks to a personal chromatic palette, which makes every work of his recognizable without twisting the style of the original work.
The suspect fits some of the trends that have been observed such as; drug abuse violations for having marijuana in his apartment, liquor laws were violated since he is under the drinking age to be able to consume alcohol, disorderly conduct and assault for striking the victim. The suspect basically stated that he raised his self, and may have been a victim himself of the property crime and theft in the case in which he is considered a suspect. It can also be said that the suspects educational status reflects his social class, location of residence, and exposure to criminal for delinquent opportunity, which in some instances suggests that chances of committing crimes are higher among lower-class individuals. A couple ways that the suspect does
What makes a criminal a criminal? Can anyone become a criminal? Answering and understanding these questions is the core work of criminologists as most criminologists attempt to make sense of why people do certain things (Garland, Sparks 2000). This essay will consider the notion that any person could become a criminal and in so doing consider the initial question. This essay will outline a range of theories that attempt to describe human behavior in relation to criminal behavior given the complexities of behaviour. Several theories will be considered as no single theory of behavior can account fully for the complexities and range in criminal behaviour. The theories range from social-control, to classical, to biological, to personality
