Many organized crimes have evolved from illegal immigrants, not to mention the bridge that has enabled cross-border terrorism. Having participants on both sides of the border give better intelligence to form many terrorist attacks within this country. “International fraud, money laundering and other economic crimes (particularly carried out via the Internet) are a growing problem, and one that can be expected to spread.” (Cetron & Davies, 2008) The increasing levels of cross-national crimes will raise the amount it costs for an investigation. This makes fighting these crimes significantly more expensive. There is suspicion that these immigrants will start to impose hate crimes within this
(Douglas, Burgess, 1986) Criminal profiling started way back in the 1960’s and became more popular as the years went by. Homicide rates were extremely high back then and tended to increase at numerous rates. Criminal profiling presented a way to understand who is capable of what crime. What do the surveys prove? To answer this question, many people think that criminal profiling is solely based on race, age, and gender but it becomes much more than that.
Because of the continuous growth of the population and crime, officers have been force to treat them all differently. Today we are going to look at the history of policing in the United States as it relates to how officers relate to different ethnic groups along with the social issues that come with it. Over the years the crime rate have went up making the law enforcement officers job hard to do. Since the border have been open for everyone to come over to the United States, the crime rate have risen. Law Enforcement is making arrest every minute from different ethnic groups.

This paper will look at the reasons and effects of the increase policing of national borders. It will first of all look at terrorism and the fear that it cause to a lot of countries prompting them to be more watchful about what is entering and leaving their countries.

Fourthly, money laundering is another factor that contribute to the tightening of regulations related to the so-called national soft infrastructure such as banking services to deal will illegal and suspicious international monetary transactions will be discussed.
The Victorian Corrections Act 1986 (Version incorporating amendments as at 2nd of April 2009) Introduction Prisons in all countries around the world face the rising tide of a fast growing prison population. Tough approaches to crime see strict and stringent sentencing resulting in longer custodial sentences that occur more often. This leads to increased sizes in correctional populations (ABS 2008 pg 3). Corrections Victoria (along with other correctional institutions) continually contend to hold in the balance a growing prison population and attempt to introduce initiatives to coordinate and contain these populations with an emphasis on management practises (Correctional Services Commissioners strategic priorities p4). The key objectives for Corrections Victoria are spear headed by the ability to contain, coordinate, and supervise offenders and provide for the repatriation, and integration into the community with opportunity for rehabilitation.
Although most of the crimes reported are measured by local and national levels, global crime levels have been slowly increasing over the last 20 years. According to Friedrichs (2007), global crimes are primarily crimes committed by “relatively powerful organizations and entities” (p. 4). Technological advances have also made it easier for these crimes to be committed. This makes it harder for criminal justice systems to fight these sorts of criminals and their activities. Global crimes include drugs trafficking, arms trafficking, human trafficking, money laundering, bank fraud, terrorism, various white-collar crimes, and cybercrimes.
Social Organized Crime Perspective CJA/384 March 26, 2012 Timothy Walsh Abstract Organized crime is on the rise and is almost unrecognizable, a fact that has made crime become as a social institution. This paper will concentrate on organized crime as a social institution and the empirical and speculative theories that are applicable when applied to organized crime and criminal behavior. Social Organized Crime Perspective Organized crime is the largest and most illicit social network in the world. Today’s organized crime has done away with the hierarchical structures of the past and has embraced local networking to solve problems and exploit opportunities. A social institution is an organization that has a particular purpose or goal used to refer to the positions, the roles, or the relations among individuals in a community persuading or influencing him or her to participate in achieving an objective.
Reasons for growth in the State Prison system part of the over population in prison has been merited to the changes in sentencing practices. The sentencing practices are part of the harsh constraints on judges and parole individuals, there are required to examine each individual case and their own special circumstances. 1980 was the large increase in incarceration; some say is based on the war on drugs and trafficking of illegal drugs to the United States. Poverty Poverty has many ways of dealing with the prison growth, there are more crime related issues than there are work, people try to get money easy and get themselves into a bigger hole. The profiling of people who have been incarcerated is one of the main reasons why most employers won’t hire an individual, therefore this people do not feel welcome in society and end up going back to prison, because they feel safer with food and
Since then there has been extensive development on this procedure, among the historical developments that may have contributed to the growth of plea bargaining were, the increasing complexity of the trial process (which may have led to the greater use of nontrial procedures both for economic reasons and because officials sought to avoid the "technicalities" of trial), expansion of the substantive criminal law, increasing crime rates, larger case loads, the frequent political corruption of urban criminal courts, the greater use of professionals in the administration of criminal justice (police, prosecutors, and defense attorneys),and the increasing statutory power of prosecutors. A plea bargain (also plea agreement, plea deal or copping a plea) is an agreement in a criminal case whereby the prosecutor offers the defendant the opportunity to plead guilty, usually to a lesser charge or to the original criminal charge with a recommendation of a lighter than the maximum sentence.A plea bargain allows criminal defendants to avoid the risk of conviction
