Prison Break

Their response to drug offenders is causing negative effect which has increases our incarceration and recidivism rates to one of the highest in the world. The consequences are hurting our black communities and over populating our prisons. This has made our punishment for drug offenses unhealthy and less virtuous when compared to many other countries punishments. If we want to do the best and most virtuous punishment for drug offenders that will benefit our society and the offenders…

a mistake and will not break the law again. While on probation, the offender will be able to live in the community. The offender will be regularly scrutinized and monitored by a probation officer positively checking that the lawbreaker is indeed following the terms and conditions of probation set by the court. If the courts decide that the criminal is a threat to the community or should be punished, he or she will then be sentenced to incarceration in either jail or prison for a time also…

the William P. Clements Unit of the Texas Department of Criminal Justice. The prison official, Rick Hudson, invited me to tour the maximum-security lockup in northeast Amarillo. I accepted and spent most of a single day walking through the prison unit. Of all the sights I saw and sounds I heard, the one feature of my tour that gave me the creeps occurred in the "administrative segregation" wing of the massive prison complex. I was invited to step into a cell. I did. Then the door closed behind…

mandatory sentences on drug offenders. The two-decade long change in criminal justice ideology and policies led the system to be plagued with an overwhelming number of non-violent offenders, many suffering from drug addiction.

Winfree Jr., (2009) we have learned from corrections in the past 30 years that is that we cannot tinker with one part of the criminal justice system without affecting the others. Correctional professionals painfully learned during the 1990’s, when prisons become crowded, inmates back up in local jails that are not equipped to deal with long-term populations or with serious offenders. Incarceration rates and policies that affect those rates have an impact on probation, parole, and community-based…

rison’s Flaws: Prisons are an old institution going as far back as even ancient Greece but is really helping society? It seems like on the news, every time someone gets arrested they’re being reincarcerated, it seems that prison really aren’t reforming but just restraining the prisoners for a couple of years. Often prisoners are mentally damaged from their visit in jail and many start to feel that jail is the only place for them. Additionally also hurts the prisoner because when he/she gets out…

The New Jim Crow, written by an expert and 10 years experiences in civil liberties Michelle Alexander. I agree that people who break the law are criminals and should be punished. Yet what I see is an issue of racial injustice being depicted by discriminatory factors including social class. It is preposterous to call the criminal justice system racist in many ways, as if you have this superior entitled opinion. When Barack Obama became the first African american president, it seems safe to say…

judgement. For even the very wise cannot see all ends”(Tolkien)- as said in J.R.R’s “The Fellowship of the Ring”. Sentencing people to the death penalty for heinous crimes would be an easy route for criminals when compared to the everyday life in prison. In addition, allowing the death penalty to ensue not only ensures escape but also the fact that it does not allow criminals to own up to their actions. Furthermore, the power a judge has on sentencing the death penalty is too high and powerful…

like how it may be in the prison from which they came from. You have an alpha person in the group. The members seem almost scare to speak about their feelings because they may appear to be weak. In the prison system, you are not allowing to show weakness. If they do, they will most likely get pick on. 2. The group cohesion is when Jim start to ask the ladies how they were doing. Even though some of the member was very apprehensive to answer, however, Jill decide to break the ice and express…
