Using an experimental design, researchers evaluated the effects of focused deterrence on recidivism and other Evaluating the Impact of Community Outreach/ Focused outcomes. To identify candidates a regional database was created/merged; and an algorithm was created to determine offenders who engaged in the most Deterrence: A Randomized Control Trial in Three social harm. The top 150 offenders were then randomly assigned to treatment and control groups using a block design. After a 13-month intervention period, Craig 0 Justice & Security Strategies, Inc. Jurisdictions researchers analyzed data from criminal histories to determine whether focused deterrence had an effect on recidivism. The insanity defense is rare in the United States, but its reputation is controversial. Idaho, Kansas, Montana, and Utah do not offer the insanity defense while the remaining states differ in what constitutes insanity. The authors present the history of the insanity defense and a review of statutory definitions and requirements for the use of the insanity plea. The authors examine how the statutes define insanity, whether insanity defense is offered, and what the Unfit to be Tried: A Statutory Analysis of the Insanity requirements are to determine insanity. This research aims to further develop the field?s knowledge of possible connections between crime and what is Mia Abboud Washington State University Defense in the United States deemed insanity. In Finnish society, citizens trust the police more than they trust their clergy. It is the belief of some scholars that much of the current criticism of, and dissatisfaction with the police results from confusion over the appropriate role of the police and the misleading and unreasonable expectations that arise as a result of that confusion. As police intervene in our daily lives, many people of color are suspicious of their motives and uneasy in their presence. The findings The Blacksburg VA Police: A Model of Social Justice and of a Blacksburg, VA police study indicates that the department should serve as a model for social justice and police uprightness. Bakhitah Abdul-Ra'uf Radford University Uprightness Learning about racial diversity examines the development of racial-ethnic identities and how people learn?through families, peers, and education-- about diversity and inequality in society. A major emphasis is placed on developing a student understanding of cross-cultural variation and its impact on justice; and, the effect that race has on the lives of people within the context of contemporary issues of justice. Educating for Social Justice: Teaching Race and Ethnicity to Bakhitah Abdul-Ra'uf Radford University Criminal Justice Students Sierra Leone has undergone tremendous conflict and turmoil in recent years, including managing a national health crisis, placing considerable strain on the relationship between citizens and government institutions. Specific to the police, qualitative and ethnographic research highlights a lack of integrity Gassan Abess John Carroll University Police Integrity in Sierra Leone contributing to issues of legitimacy and trust. This research examines variations in police integrity within police agencies located in the capital city. Previous research has shown that individuals with executive function deficits and high approach/low avoidance phenotypes may have poorer treatment outcomes than clients without these concerns. A novel treatment that may address these issues is neurofeedback, a type of neuropsychological treatment Effectiveness of neurofeedback with treatment resistant that is directed by the client. It has been widely used with ADHD and anxiety clients, and some with at-risk, incarcerated, or substance using populations. The Margaret Achee Western Carolina University criminal justice populations literature on this technique as well as the nuts and bolts of the procedure will be discussed in this presentation. Durrant and Ward (2012) note a nearly complete absence of evolutionary concepts in the explanations of crime and punishment. They argue for the inclusion of evolutionary approaches, or at least incorporations, to criminological analyses. Kaighobadi, Shackelford, and Goetz (2009) identify male-female homicide as the most significant victim-offender relationship. It is clear that evolution can help to explain a variety of behaviors. This review serves to examine our Human Evolution and the Criminology of Intimate Partner knowledge on intimate partner violence (IPV) from an evolutionary perspective. Current explanations, as well as, current interventions concerning the crime of Daniel Acton University of Florida Violence IPV are discussed. Recommendations for investigating and addressing IPV are provided. Police are increasingly using military weaponry, employing military tactics and framing their mission using military terminology? (Schneier, 2013). Recent tragic events such as the death of Yvette Smith, an unarmed female shot and killed in Bishop Texas, and the fatal shooting of an unarmed teenager, Michael Brown, in Ferguson Missouri have stirred up emotional outcries. Using telephone interviews, 200 surveys were collected. Preliminary results suggest that police Examiing African Americans' Perception of the militarization is a leading factor in the growing divide between the police and community. The minority community view the military style tactics as a tool used Charles Adams Bowie State University Militarization of Local Enforcement only against people of color The crime of kidnapping persons is clandestine and complex. The crime thrives mostly underground and sometimes spans over several jurisdictions, making detection and enforcement tedious. The article reviews the trend of kidnapping in Nigeria with a view to determining the involvement of criminal justice agencies. Existing literature on the subject matter were reviewed. The study revealed that kidnapping has become a serious issue, where abductors demand for ransom which those abducted could not afford. Therefore, governments need to review security policies in order to adequately protect the citizenry.

Advances in neuroscience has helped criminologists understand the structural and functional correlates of antisocial behavior. Less attention, however, has been paid to how neuroscience can help us assess individuals' culpability and criminal responsibility within criminology. This panel will address this gap by: (1) The implications of neuroscience for law and criminal discussing from a theoretical point of view how advances in neuroscience can change how we assess responsibility, and (2) discussing the current empirical Eyal Aharoni RAND Corporation responsibility literature on how neuroscience may/may not inform our assessments of responsibility. Police officer involved domestic violence has been recognized by some police managers to be the second cause, behind drunk driving, for disciplinary action relating to officers' off duty behavior. This paper is a literature review and an examination of federal and state statutes relating to police officer involved domestic violence.

  • Unreported Information Showing Nikolas Cruz's Troubling Behavior
    Unreported Information Showing Nikolas Cruz’s Troubling Behavior 1 Many people, through a variety of forums, had knowledge of Cruz’s concerning behavior that they did not report. Others had knowledge of Cruz’s concerning behavior that they reported but that information was not acted on by the person to whom they made the report. Some of the knowledge people gained about Cruz was gleaned from social media posts and other knowledge was based on personal observations or information they received. 2 We have identified at least 30 people who had knowledge of troubling behavior Cruz exhibited prior to the MSDHS shooting that was not reported or it was reported but not acted upon. The following reflects the categories of Cruz’s unreported behavior known to people before the shooting: Animal Cruelty/Killing: 7 Knife/bullet/firearm seen in Cruz’s possession: 19 Statements of hatred toward a group or person: 8 Statements of desire/or to hurt or kill people: 11 Specific statement to shoot school: 3 3 The following slides contain some examples of the troubling behavior Cruz exhibited before the MSDHS shooting. The timeframes for some of the material is known, some unknown and other occurrences are within date ranges. Some of this information was in and of itself actionable, some was not, but in the aggregate it is obvious that Cruz’s behavior was escalating over time. What is even more obvious is that people need to report more of what they see and hear. 4 The following slides contain some examples of Cruz’s social media posts containing concerning behavior.

  • “Daoism and Confucianism” In: Liu X. (Eds) Dao Companion to Daoist Philosophy
    Lai Karyn. (2015) “Daoism and Confucianism” In: Liu X. (eds) Dao Companion to Daoist Philosophy. Dao Companions to Chinese Philosophy, vol 6. Springer, Dordrecht, pp. 489-511. This is the post-print version. The definitive version is to be found at: https://link-springer- com.wwwproxy1.library.unsw.edu.au/chapter/10.1007/978-90- 481-2927-0_21 This chapter relies on a distinction between Confucianism and Daoism made during the Han dynasty (漢朝: 206 BCE–220 CE) and further perpetuated in Chinese intellectual history. It examines the connections between pre-Qin (秦朝: 221– 206 BCE) Daoist and Confucian philosophies, focusing on their differences as well as similarities. While it has been traditionally accepted that there are many tensions, and even antagonism, between concepts and approaches in Daoist and Confucian thought, the discussion here also focuses on the historical linkages and philosophical continuities that at times blur the distinction between the two. The primary comparison here will be conducted at three levels: the individual within its environment, the socio-political world, and the cultivation of the self. These three levels of analysis are organized in three sections, from the more inclusive to the more specific. However, the sections are only theoretical divisions, since both Daoist and Confucian philosophies emphasize a concept of selfhood that focuses on an individual’s relationships with others, within a larger natural and cosmic environment. To more fully understand these comparisons, it is important also to examine the intellectual climate within which interactions between so- called Daoism and Confucianism took place. These details, including information gleaned from relatively recently discovered texts, are not merely tangential to our understanding of both philosophies.

  • A Content Analysis of Crimes Posted on Social Media Platforms Abstract I. Introduction
    82 — Elon Journal of Undergraduate Research in Communications, Vol. 9, No. 1 • Spring 2018 A Content Analysis of Crimes Posted on Social Media Platforms Alessandra Brainard Strategic Communications Elon University Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements in an undergraduate senior capstone course in communications Abstract With an increasing rate of violent crimes across the country as well as an uptick in crime in the news, perpetrators have turned to social media to gain attention, posting their crimes online. This study analyzed the motives of individuals who post their crimes on social media. By incorporating Sigmund Freud’s theories on guilt and utilizing a narrative criticism of testimony, the findings demonstrate a lack of remorse and guilt on the part of criminals who conduct unlawful acts, such as drunk driving, gang rape, and murder. The study concluded that the rationale behind committing the crime and posting evidence of the illegal activities on social media outlets stems from the drive of human beings to be recognized by others in their environment and social media communities. I. Introduction Historical Context With a skyrocketing presence of violent crimes across the country as well as an increase in crime in the news, perpetrators are turning to social media to gain attention by posting their crimes on social media platforms. The FBI’s Uniform Crime Report showed an increase in violent crime in 38 out of 50 states in 2016 (FBI, 2016). Attorney General Jeff Sessions, who has attempted to raise awareness around this issue, has declared, “The Department of Justice is committed to working with our state, local, and tribal partners across the country to deter violent crime, dismantle criminal organizations and gangs, stop the scourge of drug trafficking, and send a strong message to criminals that we will not surrender our communities to lawlessness and violence” (The United States Department of Justice, 2017).

MANOR A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Honors in the Major Program in Legal Studies in the College of Health and Public Affairs and in The Burnett Honors College at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Fall Term 2015 Thesis Chair: Dr. James Beckman Abstract The United States has experienced several mass shootings in the past few years. It has been averaging one shooting every week in 2015, and something must be done about it. This problem appears to be limited to the United States since several other nations have been able to minimize, and almost eliminate the number of mass shootings. By taking an analysis of the gun laws of the United States with those of Australia and Canada it can be concluded that some aspects of strict gun control can reduce the number of mass shootings.
