Scheff’s Labelling Theory is a process which involves labelling people with mental disorders when they produce behaviour that does not fit with socially constructed norms and labelling those who reflect stereotyped or stigmatized behaviour of the ‘mentally ill’. A disadvantage of labelling an individual with depression is that labelling can accentuate and prolong the issue. In addition by labelling someone with depression who in fact is not depressed may in fact become depressed as a result. Another problem is that labelling an individual with depression means that they can have problems with getting a job and leading a life in the future because
No-frills prisons and jails that take away prisoner amenities and privileges are part of the correction landscape. New policies are designed to make jail and prison life as unpleasant as possible in the belief that such conditions deter even the most hardened criminals. No one knows what freedom feels like more than the inmates in a Supermax facility. Their freedom has been taken away due to their behavior. What most people take for granted as ordinary everyday responsibilities are the things those in Supermax prisons fantasies. After conviction, these offenders spend the rest of their lives boxed in by steel walls. Their communication with the outside world is shut off or limited. However, the criminal justice system does not throw anyone
When conducting a jailing system, you have to maintain two important things which are control and safety. Jails demonstrate safety not only for the inmates but for the deputies and citizens as well. The Jail, makes a point that jail is clearly exclusive to the rabble by noting a few basic truths regarding these institutions: big buildings, complex locking systems, and elaborate surveillance systems ensure high security because the rabble cannot be trusted and they need to protect those around them (Irwin, Ch.3). The rabble once held into

Computerized communication within law enforcement has and will continue to improve law enforcement as the technology is implemented and utilized within these agencies. The utilization of such devices as mobile data terminals (MDT’s) has given the average patrol officer access to enormous amounts of information. Even in 1979, Computer and technology were said to “have the potential to aid in criminal justice activities through the rapid communication of accurate and complete information, and perhaps a more rational approach to decision-making” (Colton, 1979. P.19). Now in 2014, the computers and
As a deputy sheriff working in a courthouse keeping track of inmates is a top priority. With modern technology there should be a system in place to know where inmates are both physically and electronically. Currently inmates are only tracked in the jail by placing a card showing they are out to church, medical, court or for any other reason the inmate is not in their cell. With a growing inmate population this facility will need to update current inmate tracking standards to newer technological driven standards. When inmates are taken to court the current system is to escort these inmates via an underground tunnel to an elevator to take them to the necessary courtroom. The elevator does not have buttons and a deputy needs to call for the
The number of electronics now available to make criminal justice jobs more effective is rapidly growing. Of course, criminals also utilize these technologies, so professionals in the industry have to remain one step ahead in technology to combat illicit usage. Database and information exchange, detection and positioning systems, are the three main parts of the technology involved with the new organization. There are many precedents set to help make these types of informed decisions. For example, twenty years ago it took a lot more manpower to map out crime patterns than it takes for a computer program to do it today.
Cell phones smuggled into prisons are the fastest growing form of prison contraband, posing a danger that extends beyond prison walls. The GEO Group is implementing a new application of patented high-tech equipment for detecting and locating hidden contraband cellular phones. The equipment, the ORION Non-Linear Junction Detector (NLJD) manufactured by REI in Algood, Tennessee, responds to electronic components, allowing the user to detect and locate electronic items (such as hidden cellular phones), even if the electronic item is turned off or not transmitting. This technology offers a working solution for correctional facilities to manage contraband cell phones. (Estevez & Gutierrez, 2011)
Aside from the Sun and moon, Venus seduces the heavens with its glistening brilliance as the brightest object in the sky. Beneath Venus’ radiant appearance lies a dreadfully divergent, multifaceted surface. The gentle winds and dense clouds of Venus unceasingly neutralize the atmospheric temperatures allowing the conflicting qualities to peacefully coexist. Venus orbits at a leisurely pace enchanted by the love and beauty achieved by harmonizing extreme differences. While imposing these qualities, Venus instructs people to diplomatically reconcile opposing forces, glisten in the midst of diversity, and relish in the elements of
The inmates under this unit are restrained from unnecessary movements and will only do so under the watch of a correctional officer. In the close security, an inmate is put in a single cell that is remotely controlled. There is restriction and tight supervision by the correctional officers. They are allowed to attend corrective programs.
Technology has become the bedrock for different parts of the correction system. The main force of expenditures and study in the corrections field is for the use of monitoring offenders. Different technologies that allow for better control pf the offenders can save lives and help prevent new crimes from emerging. The point of these technologies is to reduce the chance of recidivism by deterring criminals from behaviors that they may commit if otherwise left to their own devices. “The role of staff in the correctional institutional environment will never be obsolete but the use of technology can enhance and enable staff to perform their jobs more efficiently and in a safer and more secure way.” (Mannix 2) There is also an increase use of

The novel To Kill a Mockingbird, by Harper Lee, contains a plethora of literary techniques which evoke strong emotions and opinions within the reader. Evidence of these techniques include: colloquial and formal language, tone and metaphors. Through incorporation of these literary devices the reader is positioned to empathise with each of the character’s perspectives whilst gaining a child’s perspective of injustice. The employment of these literary techniques powerfully delivers the underlying themes of: racism, corruption of innocence and injustice. Narrated by Jean Finch or “Scout” retrospectively reflecting on her experiences as a child, this historical fiction is cautionary tale highlighting the embedded dangers of racial inequality and the prevailing injustice surrounding the town of Maycomb in the Great Depression. The story is set in the context of an uprising of black rights against slavery in America.
