Prosecutors can sometimes get away with misconduct as it is extremely difficult to prove that misconduct had actually taken place. Often times the prosecutor is viewed as being on the side of justice and as a result it is difficult for the defendant (who is accused of a crime) to turn the tide against the prosecution. Although during the trial both the defense as well as the judge may report a prosecutor for misconduct, this rarely happens as these reports are often dismissed. This is because as long as the prosecutions misconduct does not affect the outcome of the case, then it is tolerated, meaning that a prosecutor can harass a witness or the defendant so long as the harassment did not have anything to do with the outcome of the trial. The fact that the prosecutor works in the interests of the state can be seen as the underlying factor here.
Contradictory to this, a point to back up Rep 1’s accuracy is that a book (2) agrees with Rep 1 as it says how ‘If there was a fight let them get on with it’ and Rep 1 also explains how ‘in some areas they allowed fights.’ Rep 2 is definitely the least accurate out of all the Reps as there are many more points that challenge its accuracy. A very obviously exaggerated impression created by Rep 2 is that the streets were ‘quite unsafe… robbed and mobbed in broad noon day’ but a book (4) explains how ‘an MP was mugged on his way home… at night.’ However this Rep can be reinforced by a book (5)
A Plea bargain is an agreement between the prosecutor and the defendant in a criminal case where the defendant pleads guilty to a certain charge in exchange for a lesser penalty from the prosecutor. Plea bargaining brings many benefits to the prosecutor and the court system but also comes with much criticism. Normally the judge will offer a plea bargain when the defendant knowingly waives his rights and admits that their guilty. The use of plea bargaining can benefit the criminal justice system as a whole. For a defendant faces several years in jail and possibly multiple charges they can look forward to a few of their sentences being dropped and a reduction in their sentencing.
Criminal justice funnel is the process through which the number of criminal matters that are pending is decreased until only a small percentage of cases needs to be resolved by trial advocacy and incarceration (www.ehow.com ). The benefits of criminal justice funnel prevent the criminal system from becoming overburdened. Nevertheless, due to the amount of trials and offenders who are incarcerated, this system saves man hours and money. What are the effects of criminal justice funnel? One of the effects of criminal justice system is cases are often dismiss or pleas are bargained for which is due to lack of evidence against defendants, less-serious offenders are put on probation where they are incarcerated only upon violation of probation or committing another crime.
I think the problems are that the norms of the 1950's were wrong and people got too involved in other people’s business. I feel that most people during the 1950’s who discriminated were ignorant as hell and didn’t understand what was really going on. I feel like people who were forced to act a way that was considered to be the right way or thing or grew up in a family that were brought up to hate people of color were the people who had the most problems and secrets that society wouldn’t even accept. During those times, people were so quick to judge someone only to distract people from their personal lives and problems. For example the scene where Frank and Cathy are arguing about her spending time with Raymond and Frank shows Cathy his strong
You’re not going to only have to deal with shame if you commit a crime because it doesn’t work like that anymore. There are going to be fines, restrictions, and jail time depending on the severity of the crime. There is another way in which shame can be a great thing and that is from preventing crimes. If you’re somebody who cares about their reputation and how they are looked at then you might think twice before committing a crime because you know that you’ll
The first time offender might get a second chance with a non-conviction program and be scared straight. The benefits of the bargaining system here are obvious. While most prosecutors do consider victims of the crime in bargaining, it is a case by case basis on whether or not the prosecutor will consult the victim before reaching a bargain with the defendant. It is likely that the bargaining system will continue to be practiced within our criminal system for a long time to come. I disagree with plea bargaining for the fact that if they did something once and get a plea bargain many will think of it as they got away with something, also they may think if they do something again they will think they can get another plea bargain deal.
I am agreed with this statement. Many individuals think capital punishment is against human's rights forever but I think capital punishment is still a compelling approach to discourage violent criminals, in light of the fact that it can offer solace to the victims and their families, it will lessen the government's financial spending, and it is an immense cautioning for the criminals keeping in mind the end goal to diminish homicide rate. According to my understanding Capital punishment is important with the end goal equity should win. It is the execution of criminals for carrying out crimes. In any case, there are couples of discussions and inverse views.
In Proctors case it is opposite, he objects to the girls false deeds and no one believes him because the majority of people do not. Even Hale says it may well be God damns a liar less than he that throws his life away for pride, Proctor took a risk to see if he could get some people to believe him but the majority of the crowd did not, so it could not be true according to them. John Proctor, our main character, is in desperate need of forgiveness at the start of the play, but his wife seems torn about whether to grant it, Proctor finally decides to come clean and clearly realizes that Abigail is a whore and a
One positive effect that it does have is probation cuts down on the cost of housing the offenders in a prison or jail which in the end saves the tax payers hundreds, and thousands of dollars for feeding and housing them in a prison. A negative effect on society is whether the probationer will follow the rules, or if they will continue to act on crimes against society. My hypothesis about the effectiveness of community corrections is I believe that it is lacking in attempts to keep these offenders/probationers off alcohol and drugs. The Urinalysis test that they are giving are no fool proof, they can easily pass these test with detox drinks that you can buy anywhere GNC is one of the stores that carry these types of drinks. I suggest that they add a hair test in the community corrections rules and regulations instead of just doing a urine test.
