Describe, in 1 page, the case against the defendant and the crimes for which the defendant has been charged. Examine the punishment assigned to the offender. If the offender you chose was acquitted or has not yet reached the punishment stage, you will still be able to examine the punishments that were available. – PowerPoint PPT presentation

Death Penalty For more classes
visit www.snaptutorial.com   Polls show that
roughly two-thirds of Americans support the death
penalty however, the recent trend has seen a
slowdown in the number of executions. In 1999,
there were 98 executions in the United States,
but only 46 executions in 2010. While 34 states
and the federal government allow capital
punishment, only 12 states actually carried out
an execution in 2010 (Dieter, 2011).

Rehabilitation and Community Corrections For
more classes visit www.snaptutorial.com   One of
the problems that you will face in the real world
is that of public perception of rehabilitation
and community corrections programs. Intermediate
sanctions are mechanisms and programs that relate
to the supervision of criminal offenders not
under strict confinement or incarceration.
Gaining support from the public for these
programs requires well-documented presentations
that are accessible to general audiences and can
drive powerful support and ultimately funding for
rehabilitation and community corrections programs.
