Ethical formalism that is a deontological system because its determinant is motive or intent and not consequence. This is the system that the cops chose because they believed their motive was in fact good and they weren’t worried about getting caught. All the police officers where worried about in this situation was getting drugs off the street and taking off some of the pressure they were being put under by society. I believe that if Detective Griffiths would have not gotten shot and killed and this was a normal raid and drug but this situation never blows up like it did. It was a very unfortunate accident where everything that could go wrong went wrong and it ended up with a dead officer and a criminal that got to walk away with no punishment at all.
The victim of this crime is not known to the offender, but is chosen because she/he meets criteria specific to the killer's psychological construct. In multiple, linked homicides, the similarities in appearance of the victims will be obvious. For example, most of Ted Bundy's victims looked just like his ex-fiancee. This offender plans his murders, spends time targeting his victims, and displays control over the scene. He is methodical and orderly throughout all phases of the crime.
The hidden nature of many crimes means that the victim may be unable to provide key details about the victimization and may not even be aware that a crime has been committed at all. There is no reliable way to measure the number of crimes that might be falsely reported or of the number of crimes that might be underreported in the NCVS data. (Office of Justice Programs,
Most departments do not allow warning shots, because they are dangerous and rarely have the effect of stopping behavior. The department’s policy is ambiguous and should be revised. Ambiguity in policy leads to officer misconduct and liability. Fourth, the pursuit should not have been allowed to continue. As previously stated, there is no clear indication of the commission of a criminal act.
Background Research on Criminology Criminology is the scientific study of crime its causes and how to resolve it. One common theory of criminology is the psychological theory. This theory explains crime in the mind set of the criminal. The psychological theory of crime is basically that some people are born with a mind which is intended to do harm to others. In other cases some criminals are born with the lack of humility, which is the ability to put yourself in the situation of the person who you are doing harm to.
In many cases, people have been free from conviction because the evidence was not strong enough to convict them. If evidence is found, the new evidence cannot be used to undertake the individual
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.
The offender is judged by a jury of his peers based on the evidence presented. In my opinion based on the process the prosecution in the Oscar Pistorius case has a lot of problems. It was reported the lead investigator was removed from the case and the crime scene was contaminated. It was also reported that a missing shell was found and the police were taking photos of Pistorius. It appears they may have a hard time based on the mishaps of the people who are supposed to provide the
Prosecutors have concealed evidence and presented evidence they knew to be false. This was done to not only win a case but also to appease victims, pacify the public and gain respect from colleagues. Racially motivated decisions in the courtrooms usually occurred when an innocent black citizen was charged for crimes a white person committed. Ken Armstrong & Maurice Possley- Tribune Staff
For this reason, the police have very little say on what goes on in the city. This makes it easy for gangs to enforce power on civilians. They can do as they please because the police cannot stop them and the civilians know not to rise against gangs because gang members will often just kill anyone who acts against them. One of the most dominant powers in America is the power of conformity. It is often overlooked because it is not physical like money or gangs, but it is this power is omnipresent.
