The biggest issue within the Criminal Justice system is the large number of wrongful convictions, innocent people sentenced to die for crimes they did not commit. People are put in prison for years, even executed for false convictions. This affects not only those put in prison but friends and family of the accused. Wrongful convictions aren’t solely a tragedy for those directly involved either. It weakens the faith the public has for the justice system as well as poses safety issues; when innocent people are put away, the real criminals are still out there. Luckily, it is known what causes wrongful convictions and how to fix them.
The government has a set plan that a person have to follow until the debt is payed off. Because of this debt, some newly graduated students have to delay life events such as getting married, having kids, or planning for retirement.

In 1750 BCE,Mesopotamians of Babylon faced a land of harsh and dry years or a sudden flood and the code of King Hammurabi. Justice is the process of using laws to fairly judge and punish crimes and criminals. Hammurabi 's code is not just.

Manufacturing Guilt Wrongful Convictions in Canada, Second Edition, is relevant to the course I am taking Social Inequity and Justice because, like my course this book discusses and examines sociological approaches to social inequity in regard to race and ethnicity and how it effects these groups and their lives. Manufacturing Guilt Wrongful Convictions in Canada, Second Edition is about innocent people that spend many years behind bars, wrongfully committed for crimes they did not commit. When someone is wrongfully convicted, they are being punished for an offence they did not commit and to make matters worse the actual perpetrator of the crime goes free. Many people that do get exonerated their applications take years in the federal review
Finally, my last suggestion would be to alter the labels of ex-felonies for minor violations, and changing how to use the criminal check box. Once an ex-convict paid for their time in prison for inferior crimes we should not label then as a felon, so that they can apply for jobs and do not have to check on the felony box when applying for a job. Consequently, ex-convict could get a better chance to be hired, so that they truly have a chance to readjust in the society. People that who are labeled as a felon have a hard time applying for jobs, housings, and getting food stamps, making it impossible to survive and to provide for their family. They can lose their kids, their home, and become homeless and in other cases going back to jail. Once
There are a number of reasons that someone may need the help of a criminal defense lawyer. A good one is not cheap, but a conviction on your record can cost you over and over for the rest of your life. First of all are the very real possibilities of large fines and time behind bars. However, even misdemeanor convictions can keep you from getting a good job. Although many potential employers will tell you that they will only check back through 7 years of your criminal history, that is largely a myth. When a criminal history report is generated your ENTIRE criminal history will be visible. Whether an employer admits it or not, your history will influence your chances of being hired no matter how far back the charges or convictions may have occurred. Many
Jones (1988) determined, expunged records can be included in presentence investigation and used during sentencing; however, the courts ruled expunged records are not to be used in the sentencing of People v. Price (1988). The panel believes in the case of People v. Smith, law enforcement should not have used Smiths expunged records on his presentence investigation.
Throughout many poor and developing countries, it is traditional for men to earn income and money for their families, while women are responsible for caring for their children or elderly parents. However, it can be a struggle for these families to pay for school for their children, or even basic necessities such as food and clothes, due to their limited income. Microcredit organizations are working to help poverty stricken families such as these by lending small amounts of money to women. The provided money, called microloans, helps women start small business of their own and bring in additional income for their family. Although it is argued that these women could end up with an accumulation of debt that they are unable to repay, the
What if there was a law that could minimize, even stop all mass shootings eventually? “Laura’s Law was named for 19-year-old Laura Wilcox, who was killed in 2001 by a psychiatric client at a clinic in Nevada City. The state passed Laura’s Law in 2002 but left it up to counties to choose to implement it. For a while, only Nevada County did” (Dembosky 2). Laura’s death affected many, causing people to feel obligated to stop it from happening to anyone else. While many think Laura’s law is not ethical due to forcing mentally ill to take medication or get help against their will, it is meant to improve the quality of their own lives, and the lives of those around them in the long run. People with mental illness would refuse to get the help they
After reading the story about Larry landlord and tenant Roger Renter, I feel like Roger should have inspected everything himself before moving in because sometimes owners will not tell you everything that is going on. Roger should have got the roof checked and looked at the ceiling in the apartment to see if anything seems like it has a leak, and if he saw something, he should have told the landlord and the landlord should have fixed the issue. Also, Roger should have made Larry wrote a covenant because he would have had some documentation that Larry stated he was going to repair the leak.

Bankruptcy is a financial remedy reserved for frantic situations. Student loans are the only form of consumer debt which have considerably different bankruptcy rules. Before 1978, any student loan debt , whether it was private student loans or federally funded loan, was dischargeable in bankruptcy, without any exceptions. Eventually in 2005, a new law was passed to avoid almost 100% of private student loans from qualifying for bankruptcy discharge. Student loans are generally non-dischargeable in bankruptcy. This means that after your bankruptcy wipe away all your other debts, you still have to pay student loan debt.

Is your first instinct to say one with a criminal conviction should never be a teacher? Why or Why Not? Discuss. I personally feel a person who holds a criminal background should be able to be a teacher under the following conditions: criminal conviction was due to a minor infraction, the quantity of convictions is minimal, and the conviction did not occur recently. Minor infractions can included the following: drug possession, petty theft, and driving under the influence (DUI). The quantity of convictions should be limited to no more than two incidents. Finally, the criminal conviction should not be a recent event, as this may indicate the individual is at higher risk for a repeat criminal offense. As mentioned in the book Legal Rights
