There is a large profit that can result from drug trafficking, which could be one of the reasons behind the crime not always being viewed under a zero tolerance policy. The global crimes that have become some of the largest issues previously mentioned always make the implication that some sort of organized crime has occurred or is occurring. A problem that arises when organized crimes occur is that there are often “crooked” police officers who handle the law unfairly among certain suspects or criminals. Another issue in drug trafficking is that sometimes, groups of organized crimes all link to a business or business people. One other issue for drug and human trafficking crimes is border security and safety.
Like, in a dangerous car chase officers risk their lives and the evader risks the lives of innocent people that are in the way. Once the officers manage to stop them they release that hate they may have towards them in a physical and verbal way. This is a very controversial topic because it is a never ending war between police officers and suspects, also who is in the right of the situation and who is not. There are such important cases like the Rodney King case where he was severely beaten by cops and at the end they were sentenced to 32 months in prison. Also many, many cases where the officers must use excessive force to fend for their lives in a life or death situation.

The use of bait cars in our community have been a problem. Criminals want to say that it is entrapment. I feel that if you brake the law, you’ve done wrong. The time, day, or even the situation should not be looked at, but the crime that was committed. It should not matter if I left my keys in the car, or if the police left their keys in a bait car, if stolen it is wrong.
Organized Crime CJA 384 October 28, 2012 Organized crime is systematic, illegal activity for profit. I would describe organized crime as a crime operation in which every move is carefully planned. I have always thought of organized crime as “smart crime,” the type of crime that doesn’t leave traces and the end result leaves everyone involved with significant amounts of cash. Loan sharking, extortion, and racketeering are the types of crimes that I think of as being the most common with these criminal groups. However, drug smuggling and weapons trafficking are also quite common.
Police Misconduct respone CJS 210 I would define Police brutality as excessive force by an officer to a suspect. For example, an officer grabbing a suspect and throwing them down on the hood of a police car, which is depicted sometimes in films, is an example of police brutality. Unless the suspect has displayed aggressive behavior, or is attempting to flee the scene, this action is excessive force, and unnecessary. The relationship between police brutality, corruption, and other misconduct are usually associated with officers with poor ethics. Education can be a factor in determining if an officer is going to be corrupt.
The drinks weren’t cheap because they had to be transported illegally. While having their drink Rick tells her that he is a gangster and knows Alcapone. She is intrigued and asks what he does.

Ethical Dilemma Everyday more people will operate a motor vehicle and drive senseless by being under the influence of alcohol or drugs. Driving under the influence or driving while intoxicated is operating a motor vehicle with blood levels of alcohol or drugs that excess of the state legal limit. When a person is under the influence he or she can put other drivers and oneself in danger that can lead to death or injuries. Usually, the offender is too impaired to think about the consequence on what can happen for any unforeseen incident. In some countries it is a criminal offense.
These are both illegal activities. The next biggest source of illegal gun transactions where criminals get guns are sales made by legally licensed but corrupt at home and commercial gun dealers. Several reports make the case that illegal activity. By those licensed to sell guns.

Racial Profiling is when a single group or race is singled out and watched closely because the police feel that they are more likely to commit crimes. The example that is most common is “driving while black”. This means that black people are pulled over and searched more often then others. Racial Profiling is currently illegal but it still happens. Racial Profiling is a violation of the people’s civil rights.
