In the database article, "Prevention Prosecution Protection: HUMAN TRAFFICKING," Dearnley and Chalke convey essential steps to battle human trafficking. Raising awareness and understanding modern day slavery are necessary in combating the problem. Awareness of trafficking must be increased, as “many people still do not know what trafficking is, or do not care” (Dearnley and Chalke). If awareness is heightened, then people will realize the significance of their potential to prevent human trafficking from occurring. Recognizing and understanding trafficking is also important, as “measures taken to combat it, is often entangled with people smuggling, immigration and asylum, prostitution and other forms of organized crime” (Dearnley and Chalke).…
The writer creates a vivid disputation because she considers the victim 's feelings and emotions. Towards the middle of the article, Biswas wrote, “The tragedy of the this evil phenomenon lies in the fact that the victim is utilized in every way inhumanly possible” (Biswas, 2015, p. 86). It persuades the reader to agree that sex trafficking should be kept illegal and shows all of the casualty’s that go on and affect the poor victims. Weissmueller’s article was lacking when displaying a pathos argument. The article was short and to the point when talking about legalizing sex trafficking.…
In organizational structure you have an informal structure which varies in the criminal justice system. Informal structure is the unofficial goals, activities, communication networks, beliefs, and leadership that emerge within a formal organization (Stojkovic 2015). With the criminal justice system you need an organizational structure to keep the process in a organize manner. When developing an organizational structure in criminal justice it can be very complex.

Class, This week’s assignment was a discussion on three (3) unique characteristics of criminal justice agencies that have characteristics of bureaucracy. Bureaucracy is defined “as a government characterized by specialization of functions, adherence to fixed rules, and a hierarchy of authority” (staff, 2017) In my research I found that every Criminal Justice agency has a type of bureaucracy in it system. In every Bureaucracy, every task is broken down into multiple levels into a type of division of labor. The division of labor is not a new idea but its simplicity is what makes it efficient.…

The Nordic Model The nordic model, which originally comes from Sweden, is flawed, and resembles the one we presently have in Canada in the sense that all activities surrounding prostitution is illegal, (Ka Hon Chu & Glass, p. 106). It is a one of the four models being advanced here in Canada. While most bills that politicians want to pass regarding the criminalization of sex work is to protect sex workers from violence which it is failing to do,(Ka Hon Chu & Glass, p. 106). Prostitutes who work on the streets have reported an increase in the violence they experience due to the fact that their more regular clients started avoiding them, scared to be arrested, (Ka Hon Chu & Glass, p. 106). This means that in order to make money, they need…
In some countries criminal justice system has for long been controlled by president’s commission of fairness and law enforcement, which gives a ground breaking information. This has been a challenge when it comes to curbing criminology (Nemeth, 2013). Criminal fairness in some other countries aims at minimizing crime by administering fairness and bringing about citizens confidence that the process is fair and will deliver for the law abiding citizens. In other countries it’s an objective of the criminal justice system to balance the aims of crime prevention by control and justice. In others the main aim of criminal justice system is to minimize crime and maximize the security of the people.…
Today, our criminal justice system is slightly different from what it was in the past, but it still contains all the basic procedures and components in which it was founded upon. Most of the system 's procedures are still the same while some may be altered due to current problems going on around the entire country. The criminal justice system today is composed of three main components called the police, courts, and corrections with each having their own objectives in contributing to the system. First, the police enforces the laws and usually arrest offenders during the scene of a crime or they can be apprehended later when the police gets an arrest warrant issued by the judge to allow apprehension by the police. The police shall arrest someone,…

The apex of a life-long aspiration met with glass mirrors. The criminal justice system is charged with upholding the duties of the protecting, correcting, and providing a fair service.…
Criminal justice has been the major system for deterring and mitigating crime. From Criminal Justice 101, I have learned that it is made up of several agencies and processes established by government to control crime and to also impose penalties on those who violate laws. The three main systems are: local, state, and federal. The local government handles crimes within cities, parishes, town, etc. The state government handles crimes within that state.…
These actions include increasing the penalties of traffickers and compelling other countries to heighten their regulation of trafficking.

We live in a world where our law enforcement systems are both corrupt and unjust. When it comes to defending the innocent or prosecuting the guilty, apprehending and/or sentencing, our justice system doesn’t follow the laws set forth through oath. We allow guilty parties to run free rather than alot them to a fair trial. When you think of the criminal justice system, you feel that nothing can harm you, and you are protected. Even though a police officer’s badge says, “to serve and protect,” we live in a world where not everyone is safe.…
