Analysis of Arkansas’ Victor Case Study

It is appalling that defense attorneys easily manipulate the loopholes existing in the justice system and the law in general. In addition to the defense attorneys, the drug dealers also employ the juveniles to undertake the sale of the drugs. The citizens ignore the vice perpetrated by the juveniles in the streets, bus stops and commercial buildings. The general show of lack of interest by the citizens exposes a deep-rooted belief: acceptance of drug abuse in the community.
The police have a mandate to uphold the rule of the law. They approach each case with caution and seriousness. However, it ...

Professional or Personal

There are various situations where as an administrative office there is a dilemma pertaining to the decision making on ethical conduct in a professional environment. There are biases that cannot be avoided at times, which may be due to certain situations that are unavoidable however at the same time the emphasis on genuine corrective action cannot be ignored considering the fact that an honest and impartial approach should be taken at all times. The above can lead to severe conflicts if a decision is taken in either of the directions and therefore it becomes important to take actions keeping in mind restorative ...

Introduction

The United States Supreme Court, in the course of its interpreting the tenets of the Constitution, has commonly regarded the 12 man jury panel as critical to the satisfaction of the right to a jury trial by an accused in court, as ruled in Thompson v Utah (1898).

In the decision in Williams, the Court gave several reasons as their justification from retracting from the decision in Thompson.

Criminal Law

Question 1:
The exclusionary rule remains to be relevant in our present legal environment. According to Slogobin (2013, p. 345), the Supreme Court’s decision in the case of Mapp v. Ohio stated that the exclusionary rule is derived from constitutional origin and stays completely undisturbed which means that the Fourth Amendment mandates the suppression of illegally seized evidence
in spite of its effect on the police and an efficient means to prevent police misconduct. As an effect, any evidence that is illegally obtained and violates the Fourth Amendment for unreasonable searches and seizure is inadmissible in ...

Executive Summary

This case study looks at the increasing numbers of as yet unsentenced (and therefore potentially either innocent or guilty of any offence) young people on remand in Queensland, where – in common with other states in Australia – “Efforts are primarily focused on the rehabilitation of young offenders so that even after the establishment of guilt, detention is seen as a last resort.”(Mazerolle & Sanderson, March 2008) (p.1). Because custodial remand brings young people formally into the justice system and into close contact with what Mazerolle & Sanderson refer to as “deviant peers” (p.1), it can increase the possibility of (re)offending, too. ...

Kania and Davis maintain that the criminal justice system is jointed. I agree with this assertion. This is because the criminal justice is structured in such a way that roles can be delegated both from a bottom up and also top down manner. This information is accurate because high judicial organization ace lower institutions. This jointed process enhances the process of justice administration by making sure that judicial reviews are conducted on judicial matters that are of concern. I have not experienced the conflicting requirements in my position. I find this interconnectedness effective.

Ethics

The criminal justice system has been facing numerous problems concerning moral choice; for example, involvement in petition bargaining, the resolution to take legal action, the application of fatal forces, the burden of chastisement, as well as the representation of the charged.

The term morality, in the field of criminal justice, can be defined as the principles of aptness and decency by which human behaviors are judged (Gunning, 2007).

Certain theories explain the causes, nature, and extent of crime; for example, the theory of rational choice explains that individuals commit crime to fulfill their pleasures (Reynald, 2011, p. 23). According to this theory, individuals choose to do wrong if it results to rewards and fun rather than pain. The theory of trait argues that individuals are born with certain characteristics that make them engage in criminal activities. The social structure hypothesis argues that the surrounding influences the behavior of people. According to this theory, a person becomes a criminal if he or she lives with criminals (Walker, 2011, p.59). The ...

The Exclusionary Rule is one of the more important rules that is utilized in the American judicial system. The entire American judicial system is designed to protect the individual's rights from the government, and to limit the amount of power that the federal and state governments have over the citizenry.

Arguably, in the past decades researchers have established program modes and intervention strategies that will help in promoting social development, as well as reducing juvenile delinquent behaviors. These programs and strategies have various objectives and goals in several states. Preventing juvenile delinquent behaviors saves life of young people from being wasted, prevents adult crimes in the future, as well as reducing the burden of crime on society and the victim. Perhaps, it costs the city a lot of dollars to prosecute, arrest, treat and incarcerate juvenile offenders. Hence, the use of delinquency-prevention programs saves a lot of taxpayers’ money, which is ...

John Locke’s Social Contract Theory:

Introduction:
The Social Contract Theory argues that people’s morals and obligations depend on an agreement among them in order to form the society in which they reside. John Locke's argues that the state of nature of man is perfect, and no one is to interfere each other’s’ lives. He states that even though the state of nature is one without punishment from the authority, it is not pre-moral (Friend, 2004). In Hobbes's argument, he points out that without identification and recognition of a universal authority, chaos is the order of man. In contrast to this, Locke and ...

The notion of collaboration and cooperation by all the stakeholders in maintaining sanity, law and order in the affected areas has been very effective and efficient. These two concepts of collaboration and cooperation are well informed by the need to involve the very persons affected by the problem of insecurity and the menace of drug peddling and trafficking. These concepts, therefore, involve a scenario whereby several agencies come and work together towards accomplishing the ...
