MILLERSBURG — A Wooster man on Wednesday was given a chance to avoid prison when he was sentenced to complete a treatment program for admittedly being in possession of methamphetamine. Shaun Hall, 38, 540 High St., previously pleaded guilty in Holmes County Common Pleas Court to aggravated possession of meth. In exchange for his guilty plea, a related charge of aggravated trafficking in meth was dismissed. Hall had faced up to a year in prison for the charge, and Judge Robert Rinfret imposed a term of 11 months, but immediately suspended the period of incarceration in favor of five years of community control, which includes the condition he complete a treatment program at the Stark Regional Community Corrections Center.

Tonya Hailey rested uncomfortably in her bed in the Ford County hospital. The medicine given to her a few hours prior was still in full affect so pain was not a problem. However, the mental damage inflicted on her by the white men in their yellow truck was still fresh in her mind. When she closed her eyes, she could picture nothing but their silhouettes standing over her bounded body doing unspeakable acts. Tonya could only pray and let her mind wander, would she be ok?
The Appellate court remanded the trial court's decisions on the following issues: (1) Did the district court err in affirming that the student was no longer eligible for special education under the IDEA Act based on her strong academic record, however not determining whether she had a reading fluency deficit? and (2) Did the district court err by failing to make an independent judgment based on parents' additional evidence? It was stated that the district court should exercise independent judgment and that they weighed too heavily on Jane's overall academic achievement when the deficiency in reading fluency was sufficient to support eligibility. Also, the district court did not make an independent judgment as to the additional evidence
Students in the criminal justice department are taught that our main objective in the justice system and our careers is to serve and also protect those involved in our community. For as long as I can remember, my goal in life has been to provide service by protecting and serving those who are close to me. My penchant for service is what eventually led me to the Criminal Justice program at Valdosta State University. This passion for service began at a very young age when my life was turned upside down when I relocated from Puerto Rico to the state of Georgia due to a tragic car accident that led to the end of my father’s life. This sudden change of lifestyle and heartbreak came with an extreme amount of struggle and culture shock not just
I believe the development of juvenile justice to have had a creditable change because of the cases included, re Gault 1967, Kent v. United States 1966 and Schall v. Martin 1984. Gerald Gault age 15 already on probation for stealing and his friend Ronald Lewis was taken in to custody on June 8,1964, after Allegedly making a prank phone call. When Gault was taken into custody his parents weren’t contacted, and not even a notice was left at home. Gault was never given the chance to contact a lawyer, along with his parents not even knowing that he was taken to the juvenile detention center. According to (Margot Adler, 2007, para.
Politics have had a major influence on crime and the criminal justice systems of countries around the world for centuries. Politics have lead to bribery, corruption, and deception in the criminal justice system. Although the amount of influence politics have on the criminal justice system has declined, politics can still be quite prevalent in modern criminal justice systems. One of the major ways politics influence the criminal justice system is with money. Money is a very powerful incentive for many people, including those working in the criminal justice system.
Origin and History of the Criminal Justice System The Criminal justice system is a system that was made to control crime and make punishments to whoever break a law or rule. The beginning of the criminal justice system of the United States goes all the way back when the United States still belonged to the Great Britain. Americans were under Great Britain laws and rules and most of the laws were unfair. After the Revolutionary War and the United States became independent and they needed to create their own types of system to run their country.

School systems heavily suspend students and rely on police officers to handle minor behavioral complaints. Consequently, many youths find themselves in the criminal justice system due to these harsh punishments that have been implemented by schools (Advancement Project, Education Law Center, FairTest, The Forum for Education and Democracy Juvenile Law Center, and NAACP Legal Defense and Educational Fund, Inc.). Students of color tend to be overrepresented in those numbers; for instance, 70 percent of students involved in “in- school” arrests or who are referred to law enforcement are Black or Latino (PBS). Additionally, 40 percent of students expelled from US schools each year are black. Moreover, black students are three and a half times more
Part one: I strongly believe that judge Foster’s view is more persuasive. The judges should take into consideration the legislative intent when judges interpret and apply statutes due to the fact that words do not always show the intent that the legislative branch had when it created a statute. As a result, the goal of the statute will not be reached. The fact that words sometimes do not convey the real message of it is really important when it comes to criminal system.
There are three components that make up the criminal justice system – the police, courts, and correctional facilities – they all work together in order to protect individuals and their rights as a citizen of society to live without the fear of becoming the victim of a crime. Crime, simply put is when a person violates criminal law; the criminal justice system is society’s way of implementing social control. When all three components of the criminal justice work together, it functions almost perfectly. For a person to enter the criminal justice system, the process must begin with the law enforcement.
