Many organized crimes have evolved from illegal immigrants, not to mention the bridge that has enabled cross-border terrorism. Having participants on both sides of the border give better intelligence to form many terrorist attacks within this country. “International fraud, money laundering and other economic crimes (particularly carried out via the Internet) are a growing problem, and one that can be expected to spread.” (Cetron & Davies, 2008) The increasing levels of cross-national crimes will raise the amount it costs for an investigation. This makes fighting these crimes significantly more expensive. There is suspicion that these immigrants will start to impose hate crimes within this
Many sociologists have different ideas on how the process of globalisation has led to changes in the amount of crimes committed and the types of crimes committed, and Item A supports this by saying that these ‘views on the impact of globalisation vary’ which shows that there are contrasting views as to whether or not globalisation has had an important impact on crime. Item A points out that some sociologists see globalisation as multi-casual and an increase in interconnectedness in the world, which refers to the fact that due to things such as new technologies, there is a massive aspect of communication in the world that has not previously been present, which ultimately means that there are now ways for people all over the world to be in touch with each other at the
The Impact of Drugs on the criminal justice System The smuggling, distribution, and use of drugs in the United States have a considerable impact on the criminal justice system and its counterparts. Drug use has become one of the main factors for the increase in crime. Individuals that use drugs provide a demand for a product that is illegally marketed. In turn, the public demand for illegal drugs has influenced drug cartels to smuggle drugs into the United States to be sold to lower income and under developed communities. The distribution and use of drugs has led to an increase in arrest and conviction of individuals under economic strain.
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.
This paper will look at the reasons and effects of the increase policing of national borders. It will first of all look at terrorism and the fear that it cause to a lot of countries prompting them to be more watchful about what is entering and leaving their countries. Secondly, it will highlight other organised crimes such as human trafficking and drug trafficking as other reasons why there is increase in border controls. Thirdly, mass human migrations across national borders for various reasons in many regions throughout the world that also contributed to tighter national border controls will be highlighted. Fourthly, money laundering is another factor that contribute to the tightening of regulations related to the so-called national soft infrastructure such as banking services to deal will illegal and suspicious international monetary transactions will be discussed.
They smuggle it because drugs are a huge demand in the United States and they will obtain more money. Aside from drugs they are also violent, and participate in gang activity to also have power with their fortune. Other syndicates and cartels are the Italians, and the Columbians. These three are responsible for most drugs in the United States other than methamphetamines. Nowadays Missouri is known as the drug capital of the
Global Crimes Analysis CJA 394 November 2011 Global Crimes Analysis Many factors can affect globalization. Natural disasters, the stock market, war, major governmental changes, and certain crimes can affect globalization. Crimes are occurring daily everywhere. Whether it is locally, nationally, or internationally, crimes are committed worldwide. Crimes that cross multiple national borders are considered global crimes.
Throughout American history from the early 20th century onward, organized crime has always been relevant and continues to grow as an empire in modern day society. Some of the most popular organized crime groups in America are the Italian Mafia or El Cosa Nostra, the Irish and Jewish mobs, and the South American and Mexican drug cartels which evolved later in the 20th century. Organized crime began with the massive European immigration to the East coast of the United States particularly in New York City. There were more people than jobs so young men had to turn to crime. After, organized crime grew quickly in the 1920’s during prohibition through the smuggling of liquor and separate crime organizations worked together in order to have more control over the law.
Immigration is the leading cause of such high rates of population increase. Immigration is not only causing over-population in our country but it is also affecting our quality of life in the United States. Step 3. Outline/ Preview of case An estimated gain of 106 million people in merely 45 years is expected. Currently there are an estimated 12 million illegal immigrants currently living in the United States today.
There are three significant effects this problem has on our country. The first being how gang related crime effects us economically. Due to the mass amount of gang presence in America the economy is heavily burdened. Statistics listed on “Nationalgangcentral.gov” estimate that it costs America an astounding 655 billion dollars each year to deal with crimes. Gangs are responsible for a substantial proportion of this.
