Introduction

Criminal justice system issues are studied nowadays and will be studied until humankind exists. The point is that such issues are rather controversial. Some people state that we are only humans and we are not allowed to judge others. On the other hand, there are those who are always unsatisfied with verdicts and state that sentences should be stricter. I am studying the issue of capital punishment for juveniles. In my opinion, this issue is significant to study because there are many discussions on this topic. There are those who state that juveniles should not be punished so strict. ...

Abstract

Society would like us to see young parents living in squalid environments with children who are dressed in common “criminal attire” and packing firearms. Observations proffer that children from families where the parents started raising their family during their juvenile years have a higher propensity to commit crime compared to children born into families where the parents have already reached adulthood or are more prepared. In this light, the debate centers on the age of the parents as the main factor in having children prone to criminal actions. In this light, the statement would be interpreted that if ...

Teen Gang Violence in the Community

Teenage gangs sometimes called juvenile gangs have been a historical problem in the United States (US). That is because some change in society starts the rise or the fall of certain types of gangs and also affects their membership numbers. One of the causes in the US has been immigration which causes two basic types of gangs to band together: the local teenagers already living in the area and the new teenage immigrants to the area. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) defines the difference between street gangs and the neighborhood or local gangs ...

Ferro, Jeffrey. Juvenile Crime. New York, NY: Facts on File, 2003. Print.
Jeffrey Ferro’s journal article “Juvenile Crime” gives a state by state description and analysis of juvenile or youth crime. Since my research focuses on California, it was the state that I tended to concentrate more on. He gives illustrations as to why the youth decide to become delinquent and also gives a brief history of youth criminals in California. The only negative quality that I would probably attribute to Ferro’s literature is that he tends to concentrate more on the reasons why the youth in California ...

Corporal punishment is considered inflicting of physical pain upon a prisoner as a punishment for violation of a prison rule or regulation. Such forms of conduct include, but are not limited to whipping, cold shower, electrical shocking devices and suspension from cell bars by handcuffs.

Most states have no statutes that specifically forbid the use of corporal punishment. Other states, however, prohibit corporal punishment in detention facilities by the statue.

Institutional analysis

The aim of this study is to demystify the effects of charging and incarceration minors alongside their adult counterparts. The papers explore the judicial process and how juveniles cannot handle the stress that comes with the trial processes. Minors will be compared with their elderly counterparts in their undressing of the rights including waiver of Miranda rights. The paper also explores the psychological and socio-behavioral implication of holding minors in adult prisons (Siegel, 2014). The research will use literature and court's published data to justify the need for separating the mainstream legal system from juvenile system.

Thesis

Criminal Minors are ...

Introduction

What role do information systems play in an upcoming organization? Information system plays a crucial role of transcending information from a person or one company to another. The information is mainly meant to aid the business in meeting the transactions or decisions that the executive board needs to make. To perform this, there must be a format or chain to be followed so that the information can flow as required. The chain needs to be hierarchical so that the information can be passed from one head department to the other. In today's economy, failing to embrace the culture of ...

Parental Neglect and Youth offending

Literature Review
Studies show that child neglect and abuse are highly related to the long-term behaviors of the child. Poor parental skills have often been chosen as the first reason as to why children want to be defiant of law, even at a young age (Farrington, 2001, p. 203). Children that grow up with proper guidance and counseling from their parents are at a lower risk of getting into criminal life. Flores (2003, p. 3) emphasizes that abuse leads to a deficiency in this child where they become antisocial to their peers.
Their emotions are already messed up with ...

I. Abstract
Fasciola gigantica and Paramphistomum cervi have been discovered to be composed of three important types of proteins these structural proteins that make them more adapted to their habitats and increase their immunity against their destruction by antibodies. This project is aimed at identifying these proteins contained in these two fluke genera using an analysis of soluble protein that elicit an immune response.
II. Introduction
