PROVEN INNOCENT There is a problem with our justice system. When a person is arrested and they are innocent‚ one of the first questions they will ask is what about my rights. Nowhere in the Constitution of the United States of America or the Bill of Rights‚ is it written that a person is innocent until proven guilty. There have been people on death row and some that have already been put to death even though they were innocent. Our justice system has changed and improved over the years. There

The United States Criminal Justice System In many ways‚ I believe the U.S. criminal justice system is extremely corrupt on every level. United States Criminal Justice System has so many flaws and fallacies that I could write an entire novel about it. The Federal Court‚ the State Courts‚ and all the Local Courts attempt to make every trial and arrest fair‚ but the truth is‚ it will never be fair the way that these courts come off to be. A trial can be seen in the eyes of every single person in that

The faith system relies on a higher power to provide confirmation of the wronged-party’s belief in God. These methods are all illustrated in Aeschylus’ Orestia Trilogy. Each system has their victories

A Changing System Looking into criminal justice procedure‚ many administrations are at work. Starting with the police‚ to the courts and concluding in corrections.

The idea of justice to me has changed drastically over time. Being taught throughout the years of school‚ watching and reading about how things were so different back then‚ I always wondered what it would be like if our technology didn’t advance as much as it has. How would murder‚ and crime be carried out if technology was still at the same level it was in the 50’s‚ 60’s or even 70’s. I feel like a huge part of out justice and justice system comes from our technology and the availability to have
