The environment is one of the crucial components that enhances sustainable development. It is worth noting that environmental crimes are viewed to be less important compared to traditional crimes. Law enforcement agencies tend to ignore environmental crimes in society. Environmental crimes are threats to food security, economic development, health, and sustainability. Environmental crimes include unregulated fishing, illicit trade of hazardous waste, smuggling of ODS (ozone-depleting substances), illegal logging, wild animal traffic, electronic waste management, as wee as dumping in rivers. Analytically, environmental crimes are sensitive and dangerous to the living things. Militant groups and criminal gangs profit from some ...

What does the court mean when it says "Stare decisis is not an inexorable command; rather it is a principle of policy and not a mechanical formula of adherence to the latest decision"?

Therefore, in criminal law it is defined as the adherence of the current court system with the principles that has already been established by previous court decisions or rulings. In other words, it can be stated to be a principle of policy. Hence, it promotes reliance on the judicial ...

In my research on the topic of Human Trafficking, I have learned the following: that there are an estimated 600,000 – 800,000 people who are trafficked across international borders each year. I have also determined that human trafficking represents a significant criminal underworld, that takes away personal liberties and undermines community and safety.

These observations lead me to ask the following question:

How can human trafficking be prevented or stopped? This question has several plausible answers. For example, according to Chuang, the issue of human trafficking must be considered from the global perspective. More specially, he suggests that while trafficking is made up of a series of ...

Cyber Defense

Background In the recent past, there has been an increasing reliance on technology to undertake numerous aspects of social, political, and economic lives in many countries across the globe.

Consequently, cyber defense becomes a crucial element for nations. Cyber defense refers to the deliberate steps taken by governments to protect information that they hold to be sensitive. Cyber threats are not just a danger to the individual countries such as the U.S. that have ...

Prejudice and Bigotry in the Matter of Interracial Relationships Despite the fact that economic and social disparities between black and white Americans disappear gradually, situation in the sphere of inter-racial marriages is quite different. Even the United States today are the very segregated society in many respects. The most interesting indicator of segregation in American society is interracial marriages. At the end of the 17th century, slavery in some southern US states was replaced by indentured servitude (black worker was obliged to work on his master a certain amount of time, typically from 4 to 7 years, without receiving ...

In a couple of last years the activity of different terrorist groups has gone up. The most know is a catastrophe of 9/11 where almost three thousand people became victims.

As technologies develop, terrorist may acquire new weapons, including weapons of mass destructions like nuclear missiles or poison gas dispensers. With this kind of magnitude, the number of victims can grow up to tremendous hundreds of thousands or eve millions. In case the worst case scenario ...

How to overcome racism if our own justice system is racial? We know that our nation has struggled a lot of unjust racial cases. For example, in the period of pre-civil war, the southern part of the United States was covered with slavery. The life of Black-African American groups was horrible as they were slaves and were treated as slaves also. They were a property that white people could buy and sell, had no rights, and were not protected by the legislature. In 1865, Abraham Lincoln abolished slavery, and the modern days are known for the public fight with ...

Family Rights

1. Polyandry relationships provide for marriage system in which a woman can have more than one husband. Speaking from the historical perspective, the emergence of such marital arrangement in Tibet is related to the fact that the social system compelled marriage within a social status category.To understand the Tibetans' practice of polyandry, "it must be realized that Tibetan families consider it of great importance to keep together, without any division, whatever property they possess" (Prince Peter of Greece and Denmark, 1962, p. 414). That is the reason why husbands are often brothers or close relatives, which is referred to ...

Ethical and Security Issues of HIT

HIT and impact on patient privacy Health Information Technology is increasingly being adopted across the healthcare sector given its innumerable benefits in improving patient care and augmenting the delivery of care.

With recent news documenting massive breaches of patient information, the usefulness of HIT and possible adoption strategies have been largely watered down. According to McGonigle and Mastrian, (2014) the ethical concerns that come with HIT are equally ...

Sending a child to a school or a kindergarten, all parents expect their children to study there and to make friendship with the peers. The children are supposed to spend a lot of time in these establishments, so the school or the kindergarten must become a place the child likes and feels comfortable. But sometimes the parents can notice that instead of being happy, active, and excited about the time spent at school, children come home sad, depressed, and low-spirited. Of course, there may be thousands of reasons – bad marks, problems at school, illness or just a bad mood. ...

Question 1

1.1 In her taxonomy, Joh (2005) describes private policing as law enforcement activities offered through agencies owned and controlled by private individuals. That said, unlike their public counterparts, private police officers concentrate on property loss, preventive techniques, private justice, and safeguarding personal interests. As such, these entities mainly operate as parallel entities, each focusing on their individual duties in law enforcement. This taxonomy is both useful and an excellent beginning in the categorization of various forms of private policing as explained below. On the one hand, some of the existing classifications include publicly contracted, protective, intelligence, and corporate security ...

It came four years after 9/11 and the government had been proactive in creating response plans for such disasters. Katrina led to a number of national crises that were primarily caused by two reasons. One, the hurricane Katrina itself and two, the collapse of the levees that had been built to protect the city. Aside from this, there was a problem in the management of the crisis. The local, ...

Sexual harassment, according to Oxford dictionary (n.d.), is involving "the making of unwanted sexual advances or obscene remarks of a man or a woman in a workplace or other professional or social situation". The weight of counteracting sexual harassment in a company lays on the employer.

The Assassination of Russia’s Ambassador to Turkey

As I look at the photograph of the assassination of Russia’s ambassador to Turkey, Andrey Karlov, I am able to enter the same gallery that elicits an aroma of a freshly cleaned place where I witness the anguish of the assassin, hear the loud voice of his conviction, and experience the bitter taste of death that sends chills down my spine. In the photograph, we can see the subjects in a place that is entirely painted in white. Three photographs can be seen hanging on the wall, and it can be assumed that other photographs are ...

Poly-trauma and Blast Exposure

Poly-trauma is a condition in which the body organ systems and physical regions develop injuries (Faist & Heberer, 2006). Injuries that define poly-trauma can be life threatening to victims. These injuries risk the victims psychosocial, psychological cognitive, and patients functional ability. Poly-trauma and blast exposure are commonly found together. When defense personnel and veterans are exposed to more powerful military explosions, they are more often than not likely to experience poly-traumatic injuries. Such exposure can cause penetration of blast injuries to the body and to the brain. Exposure to Military explosions may as well cause severe hemorrhage that comes from ...

The incident that occurred on the Branch Davidians in 1993 due to an assault conducted by the ATF and FBI can be considered to be as unprofessional. According to the testimonies made, the Branch Davidians maintain that they did not fire their weapons until the ATF shot at them. Even though these claims have been refuted by the agents, I find that there was lack of communication among the ATF at the first assault conducted. The second assault conducted by the FBI was professional but extreme since it ended up murdering several people. I find that the two agencies ...

Long Response

While sexuality remains a talking point in the modern society, many people are still being discriminated based on their sexual identities. It is essential to note that several people have become victims of racial discrimination as well as heterosexism in the modern society. While many people have fought to change the perception of the offenders, the battle against lesbianism is still alive in the society as many individuals do not consider it a cultural norm. Culturally acceptable codes of behavior have dictated that a particular behavior has to be observed by the members of the society to help nurture ...

The necessity for the tracking devices in every system that relates to assets continues to increase. Tracking makes it easy to locate the position of an item, especially if one misplaces the item. However, people have diverse views relating to the application of tracking devices in the business environment (Krebs & Duncan, 2015). The tracking devices also vary, and people tend to employ them depending on the performance of the devices. Most devices perform the task better than others do, and that makes it necessary to have a given type of tracking device. The current study will entail the analysis ...

#1 #2 If I was Eva, the first thing was to understand the psychological problems that Rosetta was facing. Sexual harassment always happens in the workplace but Rosetta was more sensitive, which raises the alarm whether she had been sexually abused before she joined Maple Leaf Shoes Ltd. After Rosetta quit her Job, Eva should have gone to the male workmates and notified them it is because of them that Rosetta had quit her job. This would involve making them aware that their action of bulling and sexually harassing Rosetta was unethical, both in the workplace and in normal ...

The “Son of Sam” Case

The Nature and Type of Defenses Used The main type of defense that was used in this case is the insanity defense. The insanity defense is a common-law excusatory defense under which a defendant in a criminal case asks the court to excuse them from criminal responsibility for their conduct. According to Math, Kumar, and Moirangthem (2015), the insanity defense rides on the assumption that at the material time, the accused person was ailing from a mental illness making them incapable of differentiating right from wrong behavior or appreciating the nature of the crime. The test for establishing the ...

ADHD is a behavioral disorder that exhibits a severe long-term effect on victims. The condition poses, even more, grave consequences on the health of females than males. Therefore, given that it can progress unnoticed during childhood, there is the need to conduct a thorough assessment to enable accurate diagnosis. Diagnosis is usually made using the Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders-Fourth Edition-Text Revision (DSM-IV-TR) criteria. An in-depth exploration of all the possible treatment recommendations begins after the diagnosis. In the treatment of DHD detected in the patient in the case study, various approaches can be considered. Usually, the treatment of ...

Have a company policy

The first thing to understand about a sexual harassment complaint is that it is unlike many other workplace conflicts. Sexual harassment is an illegal act, whereas some other conflicts are not illegal, but issues of personality issues, inappropriate competition, or other problems which, although serious, do not violate federal law. Therefore, if Ana’s company does not have a written sexual harassment policy, the first thing the HR department should do is develop one and provide training so that all employees are aware of its provisions and understand how to abide by them (Heathfield 2016). Such a policy could ...

Review the discussion of the Milgram experiment on Obedience. How would you design a study to accomplish the same purpose while avoiding the ethical criticisms leveled at Milgram? Would your design be equally valid? Would it have the same effect? The Milgram experiment aimed at establishing the extent to which people were willing to harm others while following orders. However, the experiment has been criticized for utilizing research methods that are not right as well as being unethical. It is possible to design a study has the potential of achieving the same goals while at the same time adhering ...

Introduction

Since the dawn of human civilization annihilation of millions of people has been occurring. After the two World Wars, this annihilation took place through many civil wars fought within the nations all over the world. The Genocide or the mass killing of a particular ethnic group has been a common phenomenon in civil wars. In 1990s, the Kashmiri Hindus were expelled by Muslim terrorists through severe massacre. The question is whether mass massacre is the answer to any problem. There is a universal agreement that genocide is immoral and unethical (Jones, 1999). Still even after the horrified consequences of ...

The term ‘actus reus’ refers to the physical component of the crime, while ‘mens rea’ addresses the mental aspect of the offence. Situations, when the alleged perpetrator has the actus reus, but lack mens rea can be different, and a solution depends on the constituent components of a particular crime. First of all, strict liability offences and a range of other offences that differ across statutes and common law under different jurisdictions do not require proving mens rea. Strict liability often refers to minor offences (e.g., selling alcohol to an under-aged individual), where it is hard to determine the ...

The year of 2016 became critical in means of assisted dying issue for Canadian society, legislators and, of course, health-care professionals. The law, known as Bill C-14 (Chochinov & Frazee, 2016), grants permission for assisted suicide to patients who wish for death. However, certain strict terms condition this permission. The limitation of the patients’ access to the discussed medical service is a widely debated question. Many see it as deficient, sub-optimal, since the law does not assure equal rights to all citizens and far from everybody has access to assisted dying. In general, assisted dying has become legal in Canada, ...

End-of-life care refers to the provision of care to patients with incurable terminal illnesses and patients who are in a permanent vegetative state, and that type of care is one of the most commonly debated ethical issues in contemporary health care for two reasons. First, because of the development and advancement of medical techniques and technologies, physicians and nurses are now able to prolong the patients’ lives, but those interventions do not always improve the patients’ quality of life or maintain their human dignity (Cherry & Jacob, 2016). Second, the human population is aging, so the prevalence of terminal illnesses ...

Child neglect and abuse are serious issues that may induce lasting adverse effects on the victims. In the US, nearly five kids die daily at the hands of abusers (Child Help, 2012). According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) (2010), over 3 million cases of child neglect and abuse were filed in 2008. As the numbers continue to rise, however, the incidences reported in nursing appear to decline. In a review of cases of child mistreatment reported by healthcare providers, researchers mentioned that twenty-one percent of all suspected cases were never reported (Eads, 2013). Thus, child ...

The client expects that certain standards are developed in the newly merged organization that sets the guidelines for expected and unexpected behaviour. It is obvious as the merger has created a precarious situation for the employees from both companies as they must have learned different guidelines during their employment term at PALEDENIM or UWEAR. Therefore, to settle employees and educate them about the new guidelines in the merged company, it is best if a new set of guidelines is developed that settles the employees from both companies. These guidelines will become part of the new code of conduct for ...

In the majority of states all crimes are divided into two groups: felonies and misdemeanors. The difference between these two groups is in seriousness of crimes. (Hasselm, 2011) If this is a felony, an accused person can get 1 year in prison, life imprisonment without parole or even the death penalty. If it is a misdemeanor, an accused person could be punished by less than 1 year or a year of imprisonment and/or fine. Crimes are not equal in weight. General public considers some of the crimes more severe than others. (Kappeler, 2014) The majority of people considers the ...

Significance of the study

It is important to study the psychological treatments that Nigerian sex trafficking survivors enjoy because sex trafficking inflicts deep psychological harm on the victims. The study will be beneficial to the law enforcement agencies that rescue survivors and link them to treatment services. Rehabilitation centers are potential beneficiaries as they can tailor their programs and approaches to address treatment gaps. Many traffickers control their victims using extreme measures of domination and control such as beatings, murder threats, rapes, abuse, insults, starvation, and gang rapes. Studying this topic reveals whether stakeholders are doing enough to address the psychological plight of ...

In recent years, there has been much discussion among sociologists as to the nature of crime and whether or not it is socially constructed. Generally, crime is an action or behavior that defies criminal law, and the fact that laws vary from place to place and between cultures automatically supports the argument that crime is socially constructed. Some interesting arguments focus on those who have power to make such laws and their motivations for doing so. There is a legal distinction between crime and deviance, in that while deviance goes against social norms, it does not break any actual ...

The number of victims directly perceivable from the crime scene is two victims – apparent from the presence of two skulls in the crime scene. Based on the clue left on the scene, it is clear that one of the victims was male. This is evidenced by the presence of male garments in the crime scene. However, it is not always true that the natural sex of a victim is in exact consistency with the gender of the victim – this is due to issues related to transgender transformations and suchlike. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that the clothes recovered ...

Part 1: Active Shooters

There has been an increase in the number of shootings in hospitals as well as other institutions around the country (Hospital Employee Health, 2013). The increase in these cases has made institutions to start preparing their employees on how to react if such a shooting occurred in their organization. There are similarities in some of the hospital shooting cases. In St. Vincent’s Hospital, the shooting was unpredictable and could not be prevented. This was similar to the case of the Western Psychiatric Institute shooting in Pittsburgh (Thomas, 2012). The Joint Commission agrees that there has been an increase ...

ABSTRACT As telemedicine is used throughout the rural parts of Africa, there are many professionals and patients who find the entire process very beneficial because there is an allowance for a decrease in transmission of highly contagious diseases such as MRSA (Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus). If there are clinics that are found in locations surrounding rural Africa, there are strong concerns that patients will be able to transmit their diseases to other people who are otherwise healthy. With the use of telemedicine, the patients and the health care providers can see each other through a confined space and there is ...
