Other times, criminalists lacking the requisite knowledge have embellished findings and eluded detection because judges and juries lacked background in the relevant sciences, themselves. In some cases, critical evidence has been consumed or destroyed, so that re-testing to uncover misconduct has proven impossible. Evidence in these cases can never be tested again, preventing the truth from being
Also the fact that teens are so rough towards one another there brains aren’t thinking on what can happen if there physical towards people violently. Adults sometimes complain that were not adults yet, reasons why we can’t drive, buy alcohol, nor vote. In Paul Thompson’s article, “Startling Finds on Teenage Brian” published in The Sacramento Bee stated, “While research on brain-tissues loss can help us to understand teens better, it cannot be used to excuse their violent or homicidal behavior. But it can be used as evidence that teenagers are not yet adults, and the legal system shouldn’t treat them as such”. Jurors should think while there in court that treating teens as adults is something pretty much unfair, because why try teens as adults if there not even close to one.
Some were later asked to describe the speed of the cars before they smashed into each other, others were asked the same question, but using the term hit instead of smash. In their responses, those questioned using the term smash were more likely to state that they saw broken glass, though that was false (Born, Colleen 1997). Most often, eyewitnesses are unwilling to reconsider their initial understanding once they state facts in a particular way or identify a particular individual as the perpetrator of a crime. This is basically due to memory reconstruction. In a study conducted by Barbara Tversky and Elizabeth Marsh on the vulnerability of human memory to bias, showed that participants recalled a story
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.
They try and try but their learning disability changes the way they learn and special lesson plans need to be tailored to accommodate their unique learning styles. There are warning signs to help determine if your child may have a learning disability but because learning disabilities look very different from one child to next there is no single symptom or profile to use to determine proof of a problem. During the preschool years students who have problems pronouncing words, rhyming, learning the alphabet, numbers, colors, shapes or controlling crayons, pencils and scissors may have a higher likelihood of a learning disability. When they are in grades K-4 they may have trouble learning the connection between letters and sounds, confuse basic words when reading or consistently misspell words and makes frequent reading errors. When they are in grades 5-8 they might have trouble with open-ended
Doctors Might Miss Some Cases of Child Abuse Primary care providers failed to note some suspicious injuries, study found. FRIDAY, Nov.4 (Health Day News) -- Many cases of child abuse are not reported by primary health care providers, a new study suggests. Primary care providers (PCPs) are usually doctors but can also be physician assistants and nurse practitioners. In this study, researchers interviewed PCPs about 111 cases involving injured children, six weeks and six months after they treated the children. The cases were also reviewed by five child abuse experts.
Many accidents occur due to cell phone use because the majority of people are not able to do it safely (2009). It is common for people to not be focused on the road or other drivers if having a conversation while driving. Just as when impaired, the use of a cell phone while driving can slow down your response and reflex time. Most people are over confident about their capabilities of driving while using a cell phone, just as those that think they are okay to drive while they are impaired. Some states have banned the use of use of cellphone use unless used with a hands free device and some states banned texting while driving.
The problem that comes up when Hymowitz begins to talk about behavior is she starts to move towards statistics that involve children over the age of 12. Earlier on in the article Hymowitz defines tweens as being from the ages of eight and 12. So, one begins to ask themselves if Hymowitz is correct with all the info she stated before. Hymowitz states that children become involved in risky behavior in the seventh grade. When children are in the seventh grade they are between the ages 12 and 13 so that example is not necessarily true for all seventh graders.
Another possible issue is that teenagers do not fully understand the rules of the road; some may say teenagers are too young to grasp the consequences of irresponsible driving, or some may feel that the rules do not apply to them. This combined with the operation of a vehicle and limited on-the-road experience is clearly a mix that leads to a greater chance of getting into an accident. Sixteen year-olds are not even able to make decisions that matter to society let alone take responsibility for their own actions i.e. buying cigarettes or committing a crime. It can be argued that sixteen year olds are simply not mature enough and do not recognize different situations on the roads and highways to make split second decisions.
Also, not being buckled up may cause injuries and deaths to people different from the ones not following the rule. It is absolutely necessary for everyone in the car to put on a seatbelt. Quite many people think that wearing a seatbelt is not necessary and its just a tip for young, unskilled drivers. Many teenages are convinced that wearing a seatbelt is “not cool” and that their friends will make fun of them for taking on a safety measure. Some people refuse to put seat belts on because they are too uncomfortable.
