Introduction

Since ancient time, communities devised various mechanisms to sanction member of the community who travelled against societal norms, values, customs, and traditions. Some communities sanctioned law violators through beating, hanging, stoning, and lynching, but the type punishment imposed on the victims depended on the gravity of the offense committed. However, most communities appointed a council of elders to prosecute and punish individuals who contravened societal norms, values, and traditions with the intention to enhance cohesion, integration, and unity among the members. In essence, the council of elders acted as a local criminal justice system that had the mandate and responsibility to ...

Since the inception of the juvenile justice system, there have been many segments of the society that have been incorporated into the management and running of the system to ensure its success. Each of these parties play a vital role, each with its own unique set of characteristics and responsibilities that make it most effective in accomplishing the given role. Some of these parties include the police, the courts and the department of justice. In this paper, I will seek to discuss and critically analyse the roles of these three parties within the juvenile justice system.

Corrections serve an important role in criminal justice. They implement the punishment meted to offenders. The structure and design vary depending on the ideals and purposes a jurisdiction espouses. For instance, a jurisdiction that emphasizes rehabilitation will have a different system to a jurisdiction that emphasizes justice (Mays and Winfree, 2009). Accordingly, the history of a jurisdiction plays a role in determining the design and efficiency of corrections.
Documentation of the history of corrections in the U.S dates back to the colonial era. British colonialists imported the corrections systems that were prevalent in England. The American colonists however slightly modified the system; emphasizing more ...

Distinguish and analyze the differences between federal, state, & local law enforcement in terms of jurisdiction & authority.

There are three main judicial and legislative jurisdictions that exist in the U. S. and they are classified as federal, state, and local. All these jurisdictions have created a broad variety of law enforcement agencies. These law enforcement agencies have little uniformity among the jurisdictions towards the authority, naming and functions of these enforcement agencies. The state, local, and federal enforcement agencies currently interact with United States homeland security via fusion centers (Holmes, 2012). There may be to some extent more than seventy fusion centers that currently operate in thirty seven states. These fusion centers may be a new concept in ...

Introduction (Abstract)
As the prosecuting attorney in this case, it is imperative to reiterate the fact that my brief essentially entails ensuring that the ends of justice are met. In that breadth, I wish to submit that it is not justice if the interests of the complainant and indeed in this case the prosecution are served without due consideration of the accused’s interests. Ideally, balancing the two contrasting and conflicting interests would be the most essential in this case. That notwithstanding I wish to deliver my side of the bargain. It is my contention that indeed the ...

More than 200 years ago, Thomas Jefferson pointed out that education is the key to “prepar[ing] citizens to participate effectively and intelligently in our open political system if we are to preserve freedom and independence” (Wisconsin v.

While education is not considered a fundamental constitutional right, most states have statutes guaranteeing to every child access to an education. The benefits of an education are undeniable, and few persons will have any chance at success without attaining at least a ...

According to Shaw justice based on Truth and Reconciliation Commissions (TRCs) misses the mark in terms of global justice (11).

TRCs have been considered important for nation healing especially after dark episodes like the civil conflict in Sierra Leone. They also provided the theatre of post-Apartheid national healing in South Africa.

Coherent Paragraph

The traditional roles of Aboriginal women are not understood in contemporary settings because Western cultures have influenced their behaviours over the years. Socially, the primary role of women was child rearing. They were tasked with ensuring that children’s mental, physical, spiritual, and emotional needs were met. Additionally, they ensured that the children had physical necessities such as clothing, food, and shelter. Nevertheless, the fathers, as well as the extended families, also played a role in ensuring that the children’s basic needs were met. In traditional societies, Aboriginal women were regarded as the carriers of their cultures. They ...

Racism is so strongly built in society today that it feels like a natural phenomenon. Children from a very young age when their minds are in the developmental phase are exposed to such racism; therefore, they are conditioned in a way that this behavior extends to future life as well. School books and stories describe how the Afro-American is always the culprit and the American or “white guy” is the hero of most stories. If not directly, but somewhere this element of racism gets transferred to the child’s subconscious memory and determines his actions and reactions.

The most potent information often originates from the general population. The case of the Lackawanna Six is a testament to that. The people who provided the anonymous tip believed that the Federal Bureau of Investigation works to safeguard the nation. The FBI, with a long history ...

Loosely defined, a crime laboratory is a place where forensic science is utilized to scrutinize evidence with a view of solving a crime. Forensic science in this context means that the laboratory combines various sciences and technology to better analyze evidence (Ballard, 2009). Reports or conclusions made from crime laboratories are generally conclusive and admitted as evidence in court (Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc). To such extent, crime laboratories are crucial to any justice system, especially the criminal justice system. Given this central role, it is imperative that a crime laboratory is sufficiently equipped to analyze evidence.

The allocation of tax dollars is an ever-present debate among Americans, both in and out of legislative positions; one priority in particular is the issue of welfare. In the modern political narrative, there is a perception that 'welfare queens,' those who have the ability or capacity to work but simply accept welfare instead, are a drain on the system. In order to curb this abuse of welfare, the proposition has been made in various state and federal legislatures to implement drug testing policies for welfare recipients. The argument is that this screening would weed out drug users who might theoretically ...
