In “Why We Love TV’s Anti-Heroes,” Stephen Garrett argues that the actual nature of the hero has changed over the past few decades, and as a result the protagonists that we embrace are largely different as well. Arguing that “the heroes of today are radically different from those of two or three decades ago [and that t]hey have evolved to represent a radically changed world,” (Garrett, p. 319) Garrett claims that empathy is more important than respect when it comes to choosing a hero to emulate. Consider the highly popular program House, M.D. Thirty years ago, the hero of the ...

In recent years, there has been concern over the rising numbers of violent crimes in the United States. Crime statistics from the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI 2011) indicate that 58% of murder victims are youthful African Americans. The trend is estimated to rise since in 2011, the prevalence was 58% which was 8% more than it was in 2007. Young men and boys of color are therefore the most vulnerable populations when it comes to violence. The photo chosen was appropriate to this issue because it addresses the concern that the African American community has over the rampant ...

Forensic investigations have gained widespread application by law enforcement agencies during the analysis of a crime (Tewari and Ravikumar 2000). Forensic experts have a tough task because they have to use samples collected from a crime scene to reveal the culprits. In this case, the investigator has to determine which of the two companies (A or B) is responsible for the pollution that was reported.
The samples that were collected have been analyzed using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. This form of spectroscopy is employed to produce an infrared spectrum of not only photoconductivity and emission, but also absorption of a substance ...

Individuals with high social status are the associated with white-collar crimes, and this occurs especially in the context of their jobs. The legislature is reluctant in taking actions against these crimes since they least prosecute and investigate these crimes. The legislature seems to neglect the cases as the public gets less concerned with these types of crime. Due to ignorance in prosecution, the U.S congress formulated laws and statutes in the 1980s. The legislature has a challenge when it comes to dealing with corruption, frauds and corruption on the officials (Dorpat, 2007).
The crimes against persons involve murder, rape, ...

It has been tradition in many urban centers in the UK for law enforcement agents to give low attention to anti social behaviors among the society members. The law enforcement officers have primarily directed their efforts to issues that they consider to be against the law or that are “real crime”. What they fail to realize is that anti social behaviors such as drug dealing, illegal drug taking, bullying of vulnerable families, graffiti, littering and breaking windows bring about great discomfort to the society and significantly affects the society’s way of life. According to research statistics, the police ...

Challenges Facing Federal Agencies in Fighting Digital Crimes

Cyber crimes have drastically and rapidly risen up the ranks of dreadful crimes that law agencies face. They have the challenge of handling cybercrimes using limited resources (Curtis, 2000). The agencies are normally called upon to cut back their inadequate budgets consequently, reducing the amount of resources available at their disposal. In that effect, they function at a reduced level of competency.
The first challenge is that the agencies cannot acquire enough initial investment to match the expensive demand posed by cyber crimes (Curtis 2000). Moreover, the agencies needs a consistent inflow of cash to aid in keeping the equipment ...

Law enforcement occurs as one of the most pertinent matters of concern in the United States. This can be attributed to the fact that division of powers, as well as the checks and balances enshrined to each branch of government tend to constrain each other. The United States Constitution dictates that the powers of the federal government are limited to those spelt out in the Constitution. Despite this, there is a need to note that the recent past has experience a rise in cases where the federal law enforcement has encroached on roles enshrined to other agencies, especially the police.

The greatest challenge facing law enforcement agencies in investigating the exploitation, cyber stalking, and obscenity is the interconnected nature of technology that forms the internet, making it a global problem. It implies that various cyber crimes have spread to an extent beyond the control of these enforcement agencies. The regional agreement like the Europe convention on cyber crime has thus failed to keep pace with the rapid technological advancements hence leading to their imperfection (Clough, 2012).
The conventions in the form of regional agreements are also not a model law as others argue it out. However, they are just framework ...

The relationship between media and justice is aptly summed up in one of the research article published by Kenneth Dowler from the Department of Criminal Justice, in which it has been stated that “The public’s perception of victims, criminals, deviants, and law enforcement officials is largely determined by their portrayal in the mass media. Research indicates that the majority of public knowledge about crime and justice is derived from the media (Roberts and Doob, 1990; Surette, 1998).

Social disorganization theory

According to the theory, the social environment and physical environments are one of the main causes of the behavioral choice that a person makes. The theory highly emphasizes on the importance of neighborhood or locality for the shaping of their behavior. For example, a person belonging to an area where undesired social factors such as Illiteracy, unemployment, lack of moral education and ignorance are in abundance, the chances that the residents may involve in criminal activities are higher. This gives rise to other undesired aspects, such as, if someone does not want to indulge in criminal activities, but lack of educational ...

Human trafficking has existed since pre-modern times. The European slave trade, which began in the 1400s, is one of the first instances of organized human trafficking and the practice has continued to the present day (“Timeline of Human Trafficking”). A more recent example of the atrocity of human trafficking occurred during World War II when Japan established “comfort stations” for their soldiers. These “comfort stations” were essentially military-controlled brothels where young women (mostly Korean) who had been kidnapped were forced to work as prostitutes for Japanese soldiers (“Timeline of Human Trafficking”). This example perfectly describes the horrendousness of human ...

Cyber security is one of the most growing threats among computer users, personally or professionally. This is an issue that needs not to be taken for granted as more and more cyber crimes were being reported.

The term tribunal holds several definitions. It may be likened to a court while others may choose to describe a tribunal as a committee tasked with the role of overseeing particular obligations. Tribunals usually hold powers of adjudication. Two or more countries may deem it important to form tribunals for several reasons. First, international tribunals tend to be independent of the countries that create them. This increases confidence from member countries in the neutrality of the tribunals and consequently their ability to make impartial decisions on matters that affect member countries. When a dispute between two or more countries is settled in one ...
