In juvenile criminal justice, “bootstrapping” refers to the law enforcement practice of detaining juveniles in jail for contempt of court or failure to obey a court order. The practice of bootstrapping is linked to the passage of the Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention Act (JJDPA) by Congress in 1974 (Simones & Stone, 2012). According to one provision of the JJDPA, law enforcement and courts were prohibited from incarcerating status offenders in jail unless it was for a few hours before or after a hearing. A status offender is a juvenile that has not committed a crime but has violated a “ ...

My years in high school were a dramatic pint in my life. With all the raging hormones of adolescence and the identity crisis of teenage years, it was quite a rollercoaster. Peer pressure was a daily part of my life. I was always under the constant pressure to fit in. My activities were always full of mischief and a lot of misdemeanor. I joined a group of indiscipline students, and all we could do was to cause trouble to other students as well as our teachers. We never followed the rules we were very notorious for the destruction of ...

Liberty has a different meaning to different people. Some people may not even know liberty even exists because of the society they live in which is very oppressive towards certain ideas. Liberty to some people is the freedom from controlling government, the ability to decide one’s destiny, to be able to speak or write their thoughts, to not be confined based on one’s appearance, and to be free from foreign rule. While there is no real official rule about what liberty truly is, I had the opportunity to interview people from various backgrounds about what liberty is ...

Question1: Precarious Work Environment and the State of Psychological Contract

Psychological contract refers to the beliefs held by individuals regarding promises made and accepted between themselves for their common interests. In a work environment, psychological contract of workers varies considerably. In many cases, there remains a big spasm between actual physical contract and psychological contract (expectation from the other party). The ultimately goal of any organization is to bridge the gap between actual expectation and perceived expectation (Sharkie). However, in dangerous or precarious work environments such as Steel foundries, Ice manufacturing, police job, fire-fighting, meat packaging and other heavy manufacturing, the state of psychological contract is often different from ...

While it might be more common to think of the police, prison officer or prosecutor as the main actors in the criminal justice; community corrections personnel are as necessary as their colleagues in the effective administration of justice, especially since community corrections officers are the one that supervise offenders that are residing in the community outside of a jail or prison. As with any other party in the criminal justice system, community corrections personnel are as susceptible to misconduct as anyone else. To be sure, in recent years, misconduct in community corrections has become more widespread and a growing ...

Personal Experience

Social norms are the traditional standards of behavior and any behavior that lives up to these norms is known as conformity. Different nations and societies might follow different norms.

Martin Luther King Jr.’s Letter from Birmingham Jail is an unfortunate document King sent to white religious leaders upon their request for information about his recent protests in the area. Leaders were curious, or perhaps offended, about why the group chose to protest at all, and what they had hoped to achieve. King obliged them by writing a letter from his cell, in an effort to help them understand the reason behind the protest. It appeared clear by King’s quotation of the religious leaders they viewed the protests as pointless or an insincere push for dramatics. King ...

In order to get closer to the one of the most acute problems in the contemporary society, let’s define the main concept. Considering racism as discrimination against individuals or social groups of people or groups of people, the policy of persecution, humiliation, shame task, violence and hatred on the basis of skin colour, ethnicity, religion or national origin, such people who are who are exposed to the influence of the racial discrimination at once turn into stigmatized ones.

The first design also referred to as the first generation jails were established during the 18th century. The first design consisted of division of the spaces to form fixed cells or seating areas that resembled cages. The rows of the prison cells had autonomous cell blocks that were facing the spacious cage-like areas. The prisoners were kept in the cages like animals and were allowed minimal contact with the wardens. The prisoners experienced extreme boredom and idleness that occasionally led to fighting and violent outbursts. The wardens passed food to the prisoners through the slotted door spaces in the ...

Of all wars to have been conducted by the USA, the war on drugs is the least promising, with government and law enforcement agencies fighting it in a losing battle. When American authorities got it going some 4 decades ago, it was doomed to be a losing war for a number of reasons, of which one is a historic precedent never taken into consideration. It is well-documented that the only lesson we ever learn from history is that we do not learn any lessons from it at all. However, what America should learn is that conventional tools of mandatory bans and restrictions imposed ...

Virtue Theory

As a human being like Bernard Madoff, he is a businessperson with immoral business conduct. His immoral business conduct is a result of his defective character. He desired for power, fame, money, and abundant lifestyle. All his ambition became a vanity that created a trap and nothing left for him is the difficulty to break free. Moral philosophers categorized his character as vices. Vices are the perfect opposite of virtues. Vices are bad habits of character with its ...

In the most unlikely places are literary themes that are eerily similar. Such is the case for “The Ballad of Reading Gaol,” In Cold Blood, and “The Crucible,” a poem by Oscar Wilde, a novel by Truman Capote, and a play by Arthur Miller, respectively. Although each of these pieces of literature deal with different time periods and different experiences, each discusses the darkness inside the human soul, the piercing reality of very banal, human evil that burns inside most people. While Capote’s characters chase the ghost of a murderer around a complex, interwoven plot, Miller’s characters fight against a corrupt, hysterical system ...

The prison system that currently exists today offers a retribution measure instead of corrective actions to assert and ensure that the convicted assailants, after serving their prison time, could go back to the community as responsible individuals. While this is the case, a documentary featured in 2005 and 2009 documents a different role of prisons. Aside from housing convicted individuals, it also serves as a modern day asylum for mentally-ill individuals convicted of committing a crime against society.

I am writing this memo as my personal take on the existing problem regarding the release of convicted mentally-ill individuals to the society after serving ...

The trends in higher education both at undergraduate and graduate level show the increasing gap between African American male and female, whereby females are outnumbering the males in attainment of higher education.

Introduction

There is a growing contention among critics about the number of people of color that makes up the population in prison or parole. Pettit and Western (2004) have questioned the credibility of the justice system when it comes to incarcerating, policing, or sentencing of people of color. Current statistics reveal that blacks are handled disproportionally as opposed to the majority white community (Pettit & Western, 2004). Further, these theorists related the incarceration, policing, or sentencing pattern to racial disparities in the criminal justice system. United States has had a long history of racial disparity that led elicited activism by the blacks. Presently, ...

“Misplaced Priorities” is an opinion article in the US News that tells about the way the country spends more money on jailing people and less on the education of people. According to the author, these misplaced priorities have a very bad effect on the neighborhoods that are poor. The poor neighborhoods experience high rates of incarceration, and have bad schools (Stone, 2014). The author feels that priority should be given to education of people rather than on incarceration.

Bad schools do not provide quality education to students. The consequence of this is that students drop out of schools; or ...

Policy and procedure directives are meant to ensure that all actions taken in every institution of the criminal justice system abides not only to the federal constitution, but also to ethics and human rights. Therefore, when policies and procedures are being drafted, their main foundation is the constitution. However, as history has shown, things are not always direct in the criminal justice system. An action taken in criminal justice system such a jail and that seemingly abides by the constitution may later be interpreted as an infringement on the constitutional right of the defendant.

Just as a wild animal cannot be left to roam about in the city so is a criminal restrained from mixing up with other people in the fear that they would be exposing them to danger. Although crime is unavoidable in our societies, the judicial system has put measures to try and control it. One of the ways they achieve this is through deterrence. Deterrence is the punishment imposed on an a given individual with an intended purpose of making the punishment serve as an example to the criminal and also to the public at large. The crimes that are being committed ...

The death penalty arrived at after a decision by a judicial process to execute someone as a punishment for breaking the law. In some cases this form of punishment is referred to as capital punishment based on the fact that the crimes which are punished this way are called capital offences. The term capital on its part comes from a Latin word ‘capitalis’ which when directly translated means ‘regarding the head’. This is why the earliest form of capital punishment was mainly beheading or hanging. However there has been criticism regarding this form of punishment based on the philosophy that no ...

We begin by reading a tragic denouement ending of Mark’s story. Jesus is arrested by the authorities and leads to desertion. Jesus second sermon speaks of powers that are toppled by Human. When Mark narrates the moment, disciples were caught off guard. The passion narrative is filled with execution. We cannot understand this message and the hope it bears unless we come to terms with terrible realism. Mark begins the Passion narrative with two stories where Jesus is the King and the other one a Banquet. Each prepares the reader for the tragic turn. The plot is about to take ...

In his ruling, the Federal Judge Collins found Freeman guilty of 14 counts involving embezzlement, theft of assets, filling of wrong tax personal return, mail fraud and misleading a federally insured financial institution.

According to the Handbook on Prisoners with Special Needs, which is part of the Criminal Justice Handbook Series, released by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, in 2009, all prisoners are vulnerable to a certain degree, since their freedom is restricted and placed under the authority of another one(s), while in many cases abuse of power is intense, which makes things worse (p.4).

Question 1

Just as Coyne explains, it becomes very hard for incarcerated women to relate well with their children. Women locked in prison do not get a good time and even opportunity to raise their children like other parents. It is very hard to explain to the children the reason why they are locked up and it is harder to convince them that some of them are there for petty issues, which do not deserve imprisonment for such a long time. Most women become so stressed on seeing that their children have bad behaviors and yet they have no power to mould, as ...

Upon consideration of the facts as presented by Jenny, I would argue that are two causes of action; one in criminal law and one in civil law. Jenny can pursue both causes of action together or either one separately.

First, Jimmy’s actions are a violation of the criminal law; however not for the crime of rape.

Persons with disabilities include those who have long-term physical, mental, intellectual, or sensory impairments (Atabay, T., & United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, 2009).

Introduction

The current article “Criminal Justice Involvement, Behavioural Health Service Use, and Costs of Forensic Assertive Community Treatment: A Randomized Trial” by Cusack et al. (2010) offers critical insights on the topic of mental illness amongst the jailed populations. Worth noting is the fact that jail detention tends to enhance the occurrence of mental illness. As such, a significant proportion of the jailed populations experience a wider array of mental illnesses. This poses an immense challenge in that reinstating people with mental illness to society life after jail detention is apprehensive. Notably, the challenges are a reflection of challenges faced by an individual ...

A contract is a legal agreement entered by two or more parties all having legal responsibility to undertake. Once two or more agree to perform an agenda, they either put themselves into an oral or written obligation.

Summary

Preparation is the key to building the necessary confidence for speechmaking. While most people fear public speaking, if you are prepared, you will feel much better about getting up in front of an audience. Get a sense of what you look like, but not in a mirror – it won’t give you a realistic sense of what you are like as a speaker; instead, film yourself, and go before smaller groups of people and use their opinions to help you improve.

Working in teams can be highly effective, because they allow people with different skill sets to combine their strengths and counteract ...

Introduction

Madea Goes to Jail is just one out of a series of films produced and directed by Tyler Perry. These films have many things in common. For one, they are immensely popular largely because they draw on a pool of familiar black female characters; the title character being Madea herself. They also owe popularity to a host of other factors – including the shortage of quality black movies.

Madea is the quintessential black matriarch. She is large, she is loud and her language is foul. While she does have a good heart, her rants play straight into the stereotype of the mammy/angry black ...
