Not only does the “CSI Effect” affect us viewers, it affects the whole judicial system along with the safety of you and your loved ones. The “CSI Effect” is the way the crime television shows are misinterpreted which then cause’s confusion among society. After you have watched CSI, you tend to think Forensic Science is easy and could possibly be a fun career.
The people of Manchester understood this and knew that if they did not take action their city would not make it under these circumstances. The community began to attempt to solve problems themselves and teamed with law enforcement officials to make this happen. In this paper an attempt will be made to delve briefly into the efforts of the community as they teamed with local law enforcement to create an initiative that was successful as the community attempted to solve their problem. The drug problem in Manchester had grown to the point where each person that was individually met had someone in his or her family or knew someone close that was addicted. Crime was up, petty crimes of theft and simple assaults were up, crimes of murder had risen, and the city was desperate.
During the trial, Mark Fuhrman perjured himself on the witness stand, later pleading nolo contendere to a charge of perjury. 2) What were the defenses used? In a criminal trial, unlike a civil trial, the burden of proof is on the prosecution. They had collected a lot of evidence from the crime scene and from Simpson’s home. They also had collected a history of domestic violence between Simpson and Brown while they were married.
This argument can be compared to if a police officer shoots an innocent man, the country should purge police officers of their weapons. When reviewing at the examples, one argument cannot be made without including the other. For the good of the country, some sacrifices must undeniably be made. The Death Penalty system needs to be revised to produce positive results and deliver justice promptly. The death penalty must remain a valid source of punishment because with the court system we have today, most sentenced for murder do not receive a life sentence and are released back into the public after a couple years.
I would love to wake up and listen to the positive events on the news instead of all the negative events. I would love to walk outside at night without thinking about someone jumping me. After watching this movie, it really had me thinking about all the gun violence in the United States. I am still shocked at the number of killings resulting from gun violence. I wish there would be something I could do to help the number go down but I’m just one person with a little
Like a car crash we are accidently placed in situations everyday that bring out our own stereotypes towards others that we sometimes do not even realize. This movie shows how people can love to their own, yet be cruel to other cultures. The movie follows an African American detective’s story while following other cultures stories around him at the same time. The film constantly shows races of all kinds using stereotypes in confrontation with others during their daily lives. The film points out such stereotypes as, black people stealing, Asians being bad drivers, Hispanics participating in gang violence, Arabs being terrorists, and White people thinking that
He gave his neighborhood whatever they ask for but in return he wanted the loyalty. He knew that if cops ever busted out on him he would have them to protect him.

They lied about getting a warrant and in turn let a killer walk away from the situation with no punishment. Like I said previously if they would have used the ethics of virtue system they would have went about things in an honest manner and even though it might not have saved the life of Detective Griffiths it would have put his killer in jail. Ethics training for our officers is very important to maintain order (Papenfuhs,2011). However, when really spending some time and thinking about this situation I wish our legal system could in some way take into account the pressure we put on cops and when we know for an absolute fact a serious crime as been committed that the criminal could still be punished regardless of the mistakes of cops. I don’t think the people should be able to get off that easy simply because of a legal mishap and in fact disgusts me that his has happens numerous times every year.

Cang Truong Period 2 English 2A Masks of society Being a Police Officer is mask of society, because it allows him/her to justify the means for his/her’s evil deeds. For example, if an ordinary civilian were to try to commit an evil, barbaric action, they would be chastised heavily.

As a police officer, you are even handed the weapons needed to commit these heinous crimes, and an ample amount of excuses and privileges. Police officers command authority, and most of the things that police officers do aren’t chastised or critiqued by others.
