Gerald was still on a six month probation order from being in the company of a boy who had stolen a wallet from a lady’s purse. Police action was taken from the result of verbal complaints by a neighbor of the two boys, Mrs. Cook, concerning telephone calls made to her, where the callers made lewd or indecent remarks. When Gerald was picked up by the police, both of his parents were at work, neither of them were notified of their son being taken into custody. When Gerald’s parents learned their son was being kept in a Detention Home and visited, they were unable to take him home, but later there was no explanation in the record as to why he was kept in the Detention Home or why he was released. At the trail the complainant Mrs. Cook was not there.
He was then arrested and taken to the Juvenile Delinquent Center for his outrageous behavior. The part that is even more unbelievable is that the parents were never notified. The whole time the arrest took place, Gault’s parents were at work. The police officer who arrested Gault made no effort whatsoever to inform the worried parents. Gault’s mom came home that day from work and could not find her son anywhere.
My brothers and sisters do, but my grandparents ... I haven't really been in contact with them. I don't know that they're mad at me so much as they are afraid to talk to me because of the government. Did you apply for conscientious objector status before going AWOL? I tried to get conscientious objector status but my first sergeant told me he couldn't find the forms to apply and he didn't feel like looking for them.
Criminal Law Foundations Evaluation Audry Payne CJA/484 November 19, 2012 William Markopoulas Abstract United States citizens possess certain rights that protect them before, during, and after any criminal proceedings. The United States Constitution defines those rights. Congress approved the Bill of Rights that contains many amendments to the Constitution. The Bill of Rights contains the 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendments to the United States Constitution. Those rights help protects citizens from illegal search and seizures by the government.
Due Process Due process refers to the rights that the federal government must respect in terms of individual citizens according to the law. Due process goes further to provide some level of protection from the state (Roach, 1999). Judges must uphold due process by accurately interpreting the laws so that the rights of individual citizens are protected. Procedural due process falls under the rights afforded to American citizens under the Fourteenth Amendment. This ensures that those standing trial receive a fair trial which includes the ability to appear before a judge (Roach, 1999).
A writ of habeas corpus is a directive from a court requiring the government to justify the imprisonment of a citizen. Because of the writ of habeas corpus guarantee, an individual cannot be held for more than a short period of time without being formally charged with a crime. (McNamara, 2010) The Due process clause also affords the accused of the right to trial by a jury of ones peers. These case are handled so that in a federal proceeding formal charges can not be levied without a grand jury hearing where an indictment must be issued. The jury trial and grand jury guarantees are intended to protect private citizens from over-zealous police officers, prosecutors and judges.
Pony and Darry seem to have never gotten along ever since their parents died in a car accident. Sodapop is the only one that gets them both according to Pony. They fight over everything Pony does that does not meet Darry’s standards. Pony once said, “ Darry and I just don’t dig each other” (Hinton 13). Pony just seems to think that Darry would want him to be put in a boys home.

there is no solid proof that the media causes violence, and although parents do a lot to help and protect their children, there are still some steps that can be taken to protect their children against violent and sexual material. Government intervention not stands for it. Violence starts at home, not on TV or in a computer game. America needs to stand together and fight youth violence and promiscuous sex without taking away the rights of citizens. We all want to help America's youth, but Government intervention (stronger enforcement of existing laws or new legislation) into availability of popular culture media would not help to reduce violence and promiscuous sex among America's
I would say his father – he didn’t give him any attention when he came home from school and had being bullied, he doesn’t ask how it goes in school. Inside he was hurt, he was holding it all back and suddenly he exploded. He got this idea that he would shot at the school and then his friends said that he was a pussy and wouldn’t do it – and that was the final push – he couldn’t stand it anymore, it became too much. “Warning” is the headline because this story about Andy Williams is a warning to all those who bullies young student, because sometime it can become too
