The police force for Criminology Normile, Christopher, J. & Scherr, Kyle, C. Police tactics and guilt status uniquely     influence suspects’ physiologic reactivity and resistance to confess. Law and Human Behavior Vol. 42 (6), 497–506. Accessed at             http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/lhb0000306497   The authors hypothesized that false confession cases of false confession are experienced in more than one-quarter of wrongful convictions involving DNA. The author posits that about 28 percent of wrongful convictions are innocent but are accused of falsely and are made to make false confessions regarding their circumstances and conditions. Furthermore, the authors have hypothesized that the interrogators mostly use ambiguous language and alternative tactics that are different from minimization approaches, which appear to be provocative and very confrontational. The author has pointed false evidence ploys as an example of provocative tactics applied by interrogators. They are said to present fabricated evidence against the suspects to make the suspects appear guilty. In the research, the author used a sample space of 178 students from one of the significant universities in the Midwest. Out of the sample space, 13 students were eliminated…

my internship in the Findlay Police Department I was privileged to do my internship in the Findlay Police Department. I had looked forward to this experience as I have always been interested in being in any process of the criminal justice system. Having to work in the police department would have been the perfect place to start since it is where the action was. The idea was to interact with the police and experience the different roles that they handle in the process. These are various and included patrols and crime prevention, investigations and court work amongst others. There were various roles that were prescribed for the interns in the institution. These include having to log into the system in the hours that he is expected to appear in the host agency. I was also tasked with observing and reporting the activities that would be taking place in the organization. Another role was that of communicating with the officers and non-sworn personnel working within the industry. In the case that I am summoned to the courts, it is my duty…

social-cultural and economic impacts of gambling Gambling is legal in many countries and almost all states in the country, except in Hawaii and Utah States (Beecroft 1). Several non-profit organizations and lobby groups are advocating for a total ban on any form of gamble game on the island. Such movements aim at preventing the legalization of the gaming activities in Hawaii and additionally educating the public about the social-cultural and economic impacts of gambling (Beecroft 1). Unlike Utah, where the ban on the gaming activity is primarily due to its religious population, for Hawaii, it remains illegal to operate any gambling activities on the island. Despite not being legalized, some disadvantages and advantages are associated with the gaming activity. Question One Proponents are supporting the legalization of gaming casinos on the island. Such movement is supported by research findings in states where the activity is legalized, for instance, the state of Arizona and Nevada. Supporters for the legalization of gambling urges that the State of Hawaii will provide gambling firms with an operating license. Such licenses will promote transparency and…

The police Brutality For several years now, the police who are supposed to be the core enforcers of the law have been accused of misusing their powers by beating the Americans of African origin and murdering some of them. In the eyes of such police, Black men and women pose a threat to the country and must be treated with a lot of caution. There are a number of cases of African Americans who have been victimized by the police that have been reported. Still, ironically, the route to justice has been termed to be slippery. Information from the racial discrimination activists indicates that the cases that involved police brutality favored the law enforcers, and there is a low possibility of justice prevailing. There have been protests from concerned citizens who are protesting for the lives lost by Sandra Bland, Trayvon Martin, Oscar Grant, and Eric Garner, among others, but without a serious reform in the police, the killings will continue. The law enforcers need to be re-evaluated and the justice system correct to get rid of the few crooked…

Final Project – Unjust Research Paper – Use of “Appropriate” Police Force Introduction Since in history, the use of police force has remained to be a controversial issue in America. Evidence from multiple literature piece shows that excessive use of police force could primarily jeopardize the entire police department and its overall relationship with the US contemporary society. Although the historical perspective shows instances that instances of police brutality have been declining since the 1960s, these cases have remained to be persistent in modern society. For example, the shooting of black American teenager Michael brown back in 2014 justifies that there is still misuse of the police force, particularly on people color in the united states. In this context, evidence from multiple literature pieces shows the constant evolution of nationwide protests has triggered police officers in America to misuse the power vested on them while administering justice to the members of the public. Surprisingly, officers who are found indulging themselves in such actions have never been evicted guilty or even charged guilty of their actions. As a consequence, the situation…

A job action that could result from stalled negotiation for police unions is to be…

Evolution of Police Technology Police technology has improved tremendously over the past few years. Several years ago, law enforcement was represented only by the local police chief with a badge, a sheriff’s badge, and a city posse. However, police are divided into three eras in the cycle of changing police technology: the political period, the technological age, and the collective period (Moriarty, 2017).   There have been significant improvements in police technology in all three eras. During the political period around 1903, law enforcement used to monitor unpaved highways and broken foot and horseback pathways. Then came other technical advances like the cellphones, daily mail, surveillance box, and Bertillon used to track criminals, as well as the first models of fingerprinting systems. The police were later fitted with a pistol and a telescoping baton, under the new model era that started around the 1920s. This period saw the invention of the lie detector, an improved method of fingerprinting, handwriting recognition devices, and automobile use. Radar was usable with two-way antennas. The 1970 age of the police model gave way to crime…

how future terrorism might be like Since the 2001 terrorist attacks in the US, the government has been continuously investing in deterring terrorism and fighting against responding effectively to terrorist attacks. However, terroristic attacks are dynamic, and it becomes hard to predict when and how it will occur. However, it is necessary for the US government, primarily Homeland Security, the federal department that deals with terrorism to predict future terrorism so that it may include the best strategies to counter the same. This paper predicts how future terrorism might be like. First, terroristic attacks in the US are expected to be committed by US residents, especially by White Supremacist Extremists and Homegrown Violent Extremists. This was supported by the 2020 terrorism report on terrorism by the New Jersey Office of Homeland Security and Preparedness. Over time, terrorism threats have shifted from Islamic extremists to domestic terrorists. Since the 1980s to the early 2000s, the US was under continuous threat by the Al-Qaida, a Middle East Islamic terrorist group. However, since the government put in place adequate security measures minimizing the…
