The Importance Of Activity

The routine activities theory is based on the concept of the crime triangle. This triangle consists of a “motivated offender a suitable target and the lack of guardianship” (Cohen & Felson, 1979). When Hot spot policing is employed its focus is directed at two of the three elements of the triangle. Those elements are the suitable target and the lack of a capable guardian (Hoover, 2014). Some of the major tenants of this perspective are geographic targeting, focused patrol, saturation patrol, and interactive programs. There are other tenants such as simple visibility and foot patrol but I will focus on the three mentioned above. Geographic targeting uses techniques which address crime based on the “hot spot” theory. Hot spots are another

My client Andrew has been suffering from depression to the recent divorce of his parents. The depression exhibited lead to a decrease in Andrew’s attendance and grades, thus putting him at risk for expulsion. To address this current issue I chose cognitive based therapy (CBT) with a psychoeducational approach.

For this article, the alleged serial killer of 20 people was finally getting a trial after more than 20 years in Los Angeles. Of course I have to say alleged because even though DNA evidence is astonishing, he is innocent until proven guilty (Even though his stare seems to suggest otherwise). Although one of his victims did cheat death, and the alleged murderer was caught by evidence on an uneaten dough and a drinking glass, one would think that the victim would enjoy the right for a speedy trial, however this is not the case as the suspect has some brilliant defense attorneys.

    Growing up in life, I have had many different interests in terms of hobbies. Most every hobby I have come across and enjoyed quickly faded from my interest. But one hobby specifically has peaked my interest over the past few years and I continuously am engaged and working at this almost on a daily level. This hobby has been the fabrication of parts using a CAD software and 3d printing them. I've mostly been designing simple parts to help with everyday life such as cable management loops, parts for drones, and the occasional useless knick-knack type of design. In the next few paragraphs, we will dive deeper into the process and motivation of my hobby.
