A Case Study of Terry vs. Ohio George Ritchie Dr. Joan Cephas SOC 205 – Week 3 Case Study 1 October 22, 2013 The case study I have chosen to review is Terry v. Ohio. As a law enforcement officer I can truly appreciate this ruling and can relate to the ways it has enhanced the ability of the beat officer when it comes to dealing with potentially armed and dangerous suspects. I will also discuss how this ruling protects the citizen on the street from unreasonable search and seizure encounters. So now the question comes, how did we get to this ruling? A Cleveland Police Detective named Martin McFadden was patrolling an area of downtown Cleveland that he had patrolled for about 30 years.
Nothing could compare to the fascination I had with the Gnathia-Ware art I encountered at the museum. I decided to take a trip back to the Museum to view the piece once again. I wanted to make sure this was definitely the piece to write my essay on. The second trip back was just as wonderful as the first. I am Glad I made the trip.
If you were a juror, what would you say to the other jurors about the reliability of eyewitness testimony? One of the ways is to try and do maintenance rehearsal of the images you saw. If you can keep repeating the images of the crime over and over it should get stored longer. You can also try chunking information about the crime that you think would be important to the police. Also since seeing a crime it could be considered a major event and should get stored in the episodic memory of the long term memory.
The reader gets an inside view of the murderers perspective for many events including the actual killings and their trial. Even though it is hard to comprehend, the reader can better understand the motive and make sense of how the men were feeling while they committed the crime. In Cold Blood takes the reader’s mind into more depth than the average true crime story. It helps you think about what is happening from another perspective, a perspective you did not think you could understand. It does all of this while still having all the elements a well-written book needs.
Another major point is that our justice system shows more sympathy for criminals than it does victims. DNA testing and other methods of modern crime scene science can now effectively eliminate almost all uncertainty as to a person's guilt or innocence. Prisoner parole or escapes can give criminals another chance to kill. This contributes to the problem of overpopulation in the prison system. Has one ever thought of the victim’s family when the whole court cases are going on?
The phlebotomist is trained and educated in the proficiency of Proper Blood Technique Collection. They are responsible for drawing blood for a variety of reasons, including lab testing and blood donations. A Phlebotomist can be considered negligent,
I think about how people lives are affected by the minds of criminals. I take everything that I learn from the show and research it to get a better understanding of what it all means. The reason I do this is because everything that has been portrayed on the show has happen in the real world. Washington pg. 3 Knowing what to look for when you are in certain situations, and how to deal with them is one of the lessons that I have learned from the show.
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.
Joshua Holmgren Art 101 12/03/2012 Art Museum Evaluation When I first learned that I would need to write an evaluation paper for class, I was less than excited. However, after spending the time in the class learning about the different styles of art, their influences and origins, I was able to enjoy my visit to the St. Louis Art Museum much more richly than I ever had in the past. I have always enjoyed visiting the Art Museum. Unfortunately, my lack of knowledge of the subject left me there simply looking at the paintings, sculptures, fabrics and exhibits without being able to see it with a critical eye, or to even truly appreciate what the artist was trying to capture in their piece. In this paper I will be sharing my thoughts
<BR>The museum that I visited was the J. P. Getty. This museum as a whole is incredible. However, the photography exhibit did catch my eye. The first time that I went to the Getty, the Andy Warhol exhibit was up and I had a great dislike for his work. On the other hand, the exhibit by William Eggleston was awesome.
