Using the information you have covered in your previous criminal justice related courses, write a reflection paper over the administration of justice as a whole. Select and discuss at least 2 specific crimes (homicide, rape, burglary, etc.) using criminal justice theories to discuss possible causes of these crimes, as well as the past and present police responses to these crimes. Have the courts and corrections been adequate in the prosecution and punishment of persons accused and/or convicted of these crimes? Do you feel that legislation needs to be changed to influence either the capture or punishment of suspects accused of these crimes? Do you feel the victims or their families would support the legislation changes you are proposing? Why or why not? Do you feel that this legislature targets one group more than others (i.e. gang populations, lower socio-economic status populations, etc.)? Be sure to apply fundamental concepts of the administration of justice processes in your reflection. Summarize what you have learned, ending with your own personal opinion.
