In reviewing the Supreme Court case of Roper v. Simmons 543 U.S. 551 (2005), we review the allegation of the violation of the Eighth Amendment in the trial court’s use of cruel and unusual punishment in its sentencing of Christopher Simmons; who was a juvenile at the time of the crime; to a sentence of death. In reviewing the facts of the case, we find that Christopher Simmons, then 17 and a junior in high school, along with Charles Benjamin and John Tessmer, planned the commission of a burglary with the intent to commit murder under the perception that they were minors and as such would be able to get away with the crimes. Upon his capture, Simmons, admitted to the crimes and provided law enforcement with the details of the crimes. Because of his age and the nature of the crime, Simmons was considered to be
How do police decide how much force should be used in a situation and how has that changed throughout the year? Has Tennessee v. Garner been effective in protecting individuals against excessive force? Before the case Tennessee v Garner in 1985, how to police decided if they should use deadly force determined by one of four groups; these four groups were The Any-felon Rule; The defense-of-life Rule; The Forcible Felony Rule, and The Model Penal Code. The extreme one was the Any-Felony Rule which was “English common law authorized officers to use any means necessary to arrest felony suspects or prevent them from fleeing. In the United States, courts interpreted this rule as legal permission to shoot an unarmed felony suspect in flight” (Tennenbaum)

The case that I chose to analyze is the murder of Carrie and Steven Turner March 6, 2015 in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Carrie (52) and Steven Turner (61) were from Durham, North Carolina, but had recently moved to Roxboro, North Carolina because their home in Durham was burned down while they were on a vacation cruise. They owned a store in Roxboro, and had planned on selling it and moving to Myrtle Beach to retire. The chain of events leading up to their death is long and suspicious, and I believe that none of the police departments involved followed the proper protocol, or else these deaths could have been prevented. First, their home was burned while they were on vacation, and is still under investigation to see if it was an accident or arson case.
INTRODUCTION: This case involves an unknown suspect having possession of the victim's firearm. INVESTIGATION: On 01-14-16 at ?????? hours, Officer Cass #0044
