Not every crime should be subject to double jeopardy. Robbery, traffic offenses, divorce suits, and minor assault cases should remain protected from double jeopardy. Only the crimes where society is at a serious risk, and new and compelling evidence is brought to light for those serious crimes, should there be a retrial of an acquitted person. In 2006, there were new rules on double jeopardy that were put into force which scored a first conviction. ( Economist) “Pressure for a change in the law came after an official inquiry into the murder in 1993 of Stephen Lawrence, a black London schoolboy, found that the principle of double jeopardy would cause “grave injustice to victims and the community” (Economist).
However the one clue he did leave which was a leather apron was inadequate in those days due to the lack of technology. In source A it says both crimes were the work of a demented being. This suggests that the Ripper was clearly a inhumane being and the fact that the police did not pick up on this makes my feelings on how the police coped much less. Although there would be no clear sigh of madness surely there is some chance that someone would have picked up on the madness when knocking on peoples doors enquiring. The media may have disrupted police enquires by printing papers that exaggerate the situation and this may have given vital information to the Ripper as he may have read these articles and gained sufficient knowledge to get himself out of near misses i.e.
Many abandon building are being boarded up to help prevent addicts and sales and or prostitution. Many drug dealers are arguing of the invasion of privacy when police are found tapping prevent the war on drugs and save lives.

It was said in on story a potential drug dealer was giving his bank account information on the phone when his call was intercepted.
Each one of these laws can make someone go to jail and pay a huge fine. The zero tolerance law has to deal with the alcohol content (“Underage Drinking” 2). A person can lose your license, pay many fines and even serve jail time (“Underage Drinking” 2). When you purchase alcohol under the age that means there is probably a fake ID involved. This is considered fraud.
Cruel and Unusual Punishment Kristin Mara Southern New Hampshire University 1 June 2014 Graeme Newman’s theory of the “just and Painful” Graeme Newman’s book “Just and Painful” discusses the confusion on punishment in the prison system. He discusses that there should be corporal punishment but by design. There needs to be a structured system on how criminals pay their dues for the crime committed. A person accused of a vicious rape should not be equaled to someone who stole from a grocery store. But unfortunately when they are sent to prison they both are humiliated and somewhat tortured to the same degree.
Criminal Acts and Choice Theories Response Beth D. Komish CJS/200 April 6, 2012 Monty Mathis Criminal Acts and Choice Theories Response Depending on where you grew up and how your parents brought you up, you could start hanging out with the wrong people and they could get you in to a lot of trouble. I believe that crime just does not happen I believe this is in the genes somehow or maybe there is too much violence on television. There are so many different types of crimes, robberies, rape, killing each other and drive-by-shootings and so many to name. The choice theories of crime affect society by, the entertainment industry and the media, the rap singers are singing about different way to rob, kill, sell and do drugs to kids that
In today’s society there are many people who have forgotten about the chivalry codes and dishonor the values we had by doing harm onto others, that’s why for the first code to be brought back should be “Destroy evil in all of it’s monstrous forms”. Evil can be in many forms of actions that people do throughout society. For example, Scams, Abducting people for ransom, setting people’s houses on fire, the list can go on. This can be stopped by giving harsher punishments to those who deserve it. You may say a harsher punishment won’t do any good, but allowing them to be in prison for a longer period of
Putting everything in check so they wouldn’t be able to find the person who did it. He may have done it to get Mr. Peacock fortune. But this is all wrong because there were many signs of suicide. One there was no force of entrance. Two no type of mess what so ever and finally it said that the police had to break the windows to get in.
Especially if they are living I a cardboard box in an ally downtown. But medieval torture was extremely horrible and could leave people scared for life. And if you scare people enough there is no way there going to do any crimes. Would you do a crime if you knew that your hands would be cut off afterward? If you see someone get burned alive after robbing a store would EVER try and rob that store?
