Research Article Analysis Ronica Banks CJA 334 University of Phoenix Research Article Analysis Restricting Criminogenic Information is about limiting the First Amendment in favor on crime control. Criminogenic information is the “how-to” information that can be obtained in books and via the email on how to create bombs, grow pot, fabricating acid, etc. The problem with criminogenic information is that it is readily available through many sources and can and have been used to commit crimes. The article referenced the Caylee Anthony story of how her mother, Casey Anthony used the internet to gain instructions for how to make chloroform which was later found to play a role in killing Caylee Anthony. Casey Anthony was ultimately aquitted
An article published by the A-level law review, written by Ian Yule and entitled ‘Murder most foul?’ has two very important statements in the opening paragraph from people or groups who have first-hand knowledge of what is failing the British legal system when it comes to the decisions regarding cases of murder and voluntary manslaughter. Ken Macdonald QC, the director of public prosecutions, stated that ‘There should be degrees of homicide, not just murder and manslaughter but three or four degrees’. It is evident that our existing homicide laws are in urgent need of reform when even the Director of public prosecutions criticises them. The second is from the Law Commission itself in 2004 published a report relating to the partial defences for murder declaring ‘the present law of murder in England and Wales is a mess’ and also in the same report the Law Commission said that there was ‘a pressing need for a review of the whole law of murder rather than merely some partial defences’. The current law serves to confirm and underline how seriously flawed the present law on homicide is.
I would first like to discuss the only “hard evidence” that the state has offered in convicting me of this murder; the outgoing phone call on my cell phone to Nisha Inez Butler on the day Hae was murdered. The state offered that my motive for killing your daughter was due to my rage after our final breakup. Prosecutor Kevin Eurig said: “He became enraged, he felt betrayed that his honor had been besmirched, and he became very angry, and he set out to kill Hae Min Lee” (Serial, Ep. 10, 12:56). I would just like to clarify that Hae and I had already moved on: I to Nisha, and Hae to Don, whom I had met and was friendly with.
During this time Nader conducted a study that recommended the federal government get more involved in promoting auto safety. In 1965, after leaving the labor department, Nader finished the book he started while working with the labor department. This book, entitled Unsafe at Any Speed: The Designed –in Dangers of the American Automobile would fuel his consumer advocacy legacy. Unsafe at Any Speed attacked the Detroit auto industry for what Nader described as an emphasis on profits and style over safety. In February 1966, Nader delivered an indictment of the auto industry before Senator Ribicoff’s subcommittee.
Intro: Cora Crippen and Hawley Crippen were a 20th century couple who were both Canadian citizens who lived at 39 Hilldrop Crescent in central London. On the 31st of January 1910 Cora Crippen was last seen by her friends. It didn’t take long for suspicions to arise and the following year led to a long and strenuous police investigation which eventually led to the prosecution and execution of Hawley Crippen. In this essay I will be assessing “How effective the police investigation into the death of Cora Crippen was.” Paragraph 1: One key investigative method used by the police in the enquiry was the use of forensic science. In 1910 forensic science was just becoming a well-regarded police method.
Throughout the article, the author says “The shoplifter creates a third choice of her own: she takes the products she has been conditioned to desire without paying for them… Shoplifting is the most effective protest against all … modern corporations” (Ex-workers Pg. 2). The purpose of this article and its use of logos is to inform the reader of the how the big corporations are cheating them out of their money and how they can “stick it” to them. Ethos, pathos, and logos are all rhetorical strategies that are used to inform and convince the reader of the continuing problem of big corporations cheating people out of their hard earned money. The logic and the papers emotional pull all contribute to the credibility of the author and what she has to say.
In Harper Lee’s To Kill a Mockingbird the events in this novel relate to her life, many people believe that this book was a Biography of her life. I think that she wrote this book describing her life as a child, but not directly stating that the book was a biography. The characters in this novel are almost identical to the people in her life. For example she didn’t have a mother only a father, in the novel, and she only had a father in her actual life. In this essay I am going to talk about three different topics in comparison to Harper Lee’s life to her novel.
For Mate to say that all addictive drug use is caused from neglect issues is not accurate because he does not account for the people who do drugs because they want to. In spite of Mate’s lack of information, his use of hard evidence, and personal anecdotes aides in validating his argument. Scientific examples are
In some ways the police force were not to blame for not capturing Jack the Ripper because of the harsh conditions that they had to work in. A newspaper article describes the streets of Whitechapel as "containing some headquarters of infamy" and "The sights and sounds are an apocalypse of evil" This gives a very negative image of the streets of Whitechapel and leads us to feel sympathetic towards the Police because they had to work in these conditions. The conditions would also affect a policeman's efficiency and make him less alert. The conditions can also explain why Jack could get away so easily. Because the Ripper wore a "dark coat", he may have been able to camouflage into the dark surroundings, described -"The main thoroughfares of Whitechapel are connected by a network of narrow, dark
Kristen Rand, the Director of the Violence Policy Center, argues “[c]oncealed carry permit holders don't prevent mass shootings, they perpetrate them” (Carmi Times, 2011). The problem with this statement isn’t that it is incorrect, but rather it’s completely irrelevant. Of course, when murders are committed with handguns, a certain percentage of offenders are individuals who hold concealed-carry permits. This, however, is not an appropriate indictment of concealed carry laws. Using this logic, citizens would be denied the ability to drive cars because drunk drivers use them to kill people.
