It's time justice put the emphasis of our criminal justice system back on protecting the victim rather than the accused. Any criminal on death row has almost always committed another crime to add onto their punishment. DNA testing and other methods of modern crime scene science can now effectively eliminate most uncertainty as to a person's guilt or innocence. Death penalty pros states that “DNA testing is over 99 percent effective. And even if DNA testing and other such scientific methods didn't exist, the trial and appeals process is so thorough it's next to impossible to convict an innocent person”.
If you look at serial killers who go on for decades without being caught, they have to have some sort of intelligence to pull that off. I wouldn’t doubt that they are very intelligent people. Just because they chose to do awful things doesn’t mean that they are dumb, or even uneducated. On the other hand, do I think that this theory applies to every criminal act committed? No.
Robert Barton, like most of his peers, started out slowly and was overawed by the total process, but with time he began to feel, think and act like a cop. He wanted to protect and serve the community from criminals but the reality with the streets and social status that he sought, within the group; he quickly accepted the norms and values of his peers and of his field training officers. After three years in the patrol division, he was reassigned to the Gang Task Force that consisted of 26 investigators, 1 supervisor form 6 jurisdictions that formed a tightly knit work group. This group consisted of a homogeneous and cohesive group of bilingual individuals that identified with each other by having the same values, attitudes, and beliefs in relation to their job.

The good, law abiding citizen doesn't have drugs, but bad citizens still do. So if we take guns away from the public the good citizens won't have guns, but the bad citizens, the criminals will still have them. This will make it easier for the criminals to commit crimes. When these criminals are committing crimes the good citizens won't be able to defend themselves. This would give an advantage to the criminal since he's the only one with a firearm.
Motorcycles offer police better opportunities to do their job effectively while protecting the communities that they serve. By all means, police are the most important people in our lives to keep communities that people live in safe. Without these men in blue, the world would be nothing but complete disarray. Just the sight of a man or woman in a blue uniform is enough to keep people minding their p’s and q’s. The same goes for their white police cruiser with lights on the roof that officers drive.
The Spread of Police Brutality 1 The Spread of Police Brutality and its Effects on American Citizens Maria Matrosova Northern Illinois University 2 Citizens are always reassured that police officers are strong, kind men and women who are there anytime of day or night to serve and protect us. They fight crime and save lives everyday keeping our neighborhoods safe. For the past five decades, american government has been on official indifference and cover-up when it comes to prosecuting the police for citizen brutality.

There is only about a 3% difference with the retention of a private lawyer or a public defender as to how often counsel plea bargains a case(Associated Content, Inc., 2010).

Leaving a greater opportunity for those criminals to enter back into society doing the same things that got them into trouble in the first place. Meaning that plea bargaining is a positive thing , but also in some ways has no purpose if those criminals that bargain are just going to get lesser charges and reduce a lengthy sentencing so they can get back out and do it all over again. Thats why I believe that plea bargaining should be reanalyzed to find ways in using this aspect as well as making sure that the accused has learned their lesson while having a lesser chance of entering back into society with the intent of returning to old habits.
