Sometime the issue is straightforward, for example a carer stealing from an individual’s purse, but at other times it is more difficult to address. This is because very often the perpetrator can be someoneʹs son or daughter, or age prejudice means that other people assume it is not happening or that the older person is to blame. Two common issues that come to our attention are (a) sons or daughters attempting to justify their actions on the basis that they are simply obtaining their inheritance in advance and (b) the extensive misuse of Powers of Attorney. • Institutional
Parents strung out on drugs, which leads to child neglect and child abuse. Children are being left to raising themselves, and adopting the bad habits of the adults around them. This then leads to family court disputes, school violence, and juvenile discipline and detainment that ultimately tax payers foot the bill for. White collar crimes such as corporate fraud, embezzlement, tax evasion, and identity theft are dealt with and viewed with a blasé, and slap on the wrist attitude. However, the Economic impact of identity theft growing fast shows the ease and the harm of white collar crimes, and the long
America’s primary goal is national security and when thousands of illegal immigrants travel into the U.S. each year, any one of those illegal immigrants could have plans to wreak havoc on this country. Gang members could be affiliated with terrorist groups who have ill-intentions for America, jeopardizing public safety (I’d rather my pink Caddy not have bullet holes in it). Along with the violence, illegal immigrants take jobs away from legal residence (right about here is where I ran out of stuff to say so I B.S.-ed it to make it longer, just bein’ honest). It’s proven that illegal immigrants are more likely to do lower paying jobs that involve more labor than legal Americans, but in the long run those jobs would be filled by previously un-employed citizens. This would strengthen America’s economy in the long run and reduce how much the government pays out to
How to Protect Yourself from Identity Theft MaryClaire Estes South University September 21, 2012 Robert Vasile South University Online Abstract Identity theft is a growing crime in today’s society. People affected the most by identity theft are the elderly and young adults beginning to grow their credit history, others victimized are typically not tech savvy and don’t realize just they are sharing their personal information or realize just how crooked people can be. Everyone should know how to protect themselves as well as their children from this crime. It takes years to build your credit but just one thief to ruin it. The worst thing about identity theft is that you can’t get a new social security card.
It’s a frightening thought that at any moment someone could take everything you have in your checking or savings accounts, lest we discover all the chaos and havoc they could wreak if opening loans, credit cards, or any number of disreputable arrangements with your identity. It is a well-known fact that it takes most people a lengthy period of time to repair the damage to their lives that some scoundrel had created. For some, it is never fully stable again. I must agree with Saffo in his statement that,” the use of biometric information may be inevitable, but the notion that it can deliver reliable, theft proof evidence of identity is pure science fiction” (10), there is no reliable evidence available that cannot be forged, faked, replicated or stolen, DNA is not an exception. Saffo weaves an imaginary account to get us in the right frame of mind to truly delve into

Most of the time people do not understand gang members but look at them automatically as corrupt people. People do not understand a lot of the gang members could have been raised around gangs and influenced around it. Without crime and deviance there would be a limit of certain jobs like police officers, court house, etc. “Accepted wisdom holds that crime is committed disproportionately by adolescents. According to data from the United States and other industrialized countries, property and violent crime rise rapidly in the teenage years to a peak at about ages 16 and 18, respectively, with a decline thereafter until old age (Hirschi & Gottfredson 1983, Farrington 1986, Flanagan & Maguire 1990)”.
“Time behind bars can lead to deterioration in a worker’s “human capital,” including formal education, on- the- job experience, and even “soft skills,” such a punctuality or customer relations, (Schmitt & Warner, 2011). Most employers are reluctant to hire applicants with criminal records which impact the re-entry programs. The impact on reentry programs is instrumental to the high rates of recidivism in the United States. Barriers to employment: “The major States of the Union allows employers to deny jobs to citizens with criminal records”, as reported by the (2004) Legal Action Center. Holzer et al., (2003) suggest “certain occupations legally closed to individuals with felony convictions under state law as well as federal law”.
There are 43,000 inmates in prison for sexual offenses, while each year in this country over 510,000 children are victims of sexual assault. The statistics does not convey the severity of the situation. Each year 510,000 children have their childhoods destroyed, and are faced with dealing with sexual assault for their entire lives. Sadly, many of those assaults are perpetrated by people who have already been through the correctional system, only to victimize again. Sex offenders, as a class of criminals, are nine times more likely to repeat their crimes.
Some debates talk about citizenship, border security, driver's license, mass deportations, threats, economic burdens, and higher crime rates. For example, in America, 72% of legal citizens oppose allowing illegal immigrants the ability to obtain a driver's license (Miller). Other problems create disadvantages towards American citizens and workers, such as the Southwest seeing an increase in mass murders, sexual assaults, kidnappings, shootings, armed robberies, burglaries, and more, most being tied to illegal immigration (Greenblatt). These problems further drain public budgets and intensify competition for jobs, social services, and low-cost affordable housing because of the congestion in cities and towns that involve minorities, the homeless, everyday citizens, and both legal and illegal immigrants. Throughout the current wave of immigration, polls have consistently found that the public, at large, favors curbing immigration.
