... corruption,” (“Interpool” by Fenton Bresler, page 1). A person engaging in organized crime has the sole purpose of generating profits from his/her victims. His crime is consciously and deliberately thought out in order to make earnings as quickly as possible. The United States Officials believe that the easiest form of organized crime is prostitution due to the number of men/woman willing to be customers to prostitutes. Violence is one of the major problems for women and prostitutes. Sixty percent of abuse to prostitutes is caused by clients, twenty percent by the police and another twenty percent due to domestic relationships. The involvement of weapons concurred for prostitution ...
... honest testimony and human error remain all too real. We have no way of judging how many innocent persons have been executed, but we can be certain there were some."(The Death Penalty In America) Now days there are a lot more advanced technology such as the DNA testing that they can use to prove someone's innocence. The criminals had a tough time proving their innocence because of the tough situations they were put in such as bad representation, and racial prejudice.(The Death Penalty In America) It is awful to know that people actually spent most of their years in jail trying to prove their innocence, only to be put to death. This is just one subject that has so much t ...
... is where one learns about life. One learns right from wrong, good from evil, and how to control one's emotions. What would happen if the courts took away this precious learning time from a youth? The youth wouldn't learn exactly why he was imprisoned. His morals would never be formed correctly because he would never be able to learn society's moral standards. When, and if these children are released from prison, they won't know how to react in the adult world they failed to learn about. Children need to learn what is right from wrong, and they can't learn correctly in types of correctional facilities made for adults. When that little boy shot his sister, did he really know w ...
... Still some people commit fraud to pay for an elevated life style which other wise they could not afford. Needs arise from a number of locations these include: Drug or alcohol addiction, Marriage break-ups and/of extravagant love affairs, Gambling Debts, Business losses, Unexpected family crises, Mounting debts, and the desire to live a lifestyle far beyond ones means. Fraud is costing society several hundred billion a year. Organizations loose close to 6 percent of annual revenue to fraud and abuse of social systems. Fraud costs Canadian organizations $100 billion annually. On the average, organizations loose $9 dollars a day per employee to fraud. On an average of fraudulent cases male ...
... legislation, and stop acting as if otherwise law-abiding marijuana smokers are part of the crime problem. They are not, and it is absurd to continue to spend law enforcement resources arresting them. Marijuana smokers in this country are no different from their non- smoking peers, except for their marijuana use. Like most Americans, they are responsible citizens who work hard, raise families, contribute to their communities, and want a safe, crime-free neighborhood in which to live. Because of our marijuana laws, these citizens face criminal arrest and imprisonment solely because they choose to smoke a marijuana cigarette when they relax, instead of drinking alcohol. They simply prefer ma ...
... of dried, shredded flowers and leaves of the hemp plant (Cannabis sativa). There are many slang names for marijuana such as pot, weed, boom, gangster, and Mary Jane. This drug causes Timing, coordination, alertness, and performance to be affected in a negative way. Marijuana has THC in it which is absorbed by fatty tissues in various organs. THC can be detected using urine tests and it will stay in your system for seven to a couple of weeks. Teens are the reason that drugs are a problem in the U.S..

... death penalty because of the possibility of an innocent person being put to death, and because it can be unfairly applied. Death penalty opponents feel that the death penalty must be abolished because it cheapens the value of human life. The death penalty desensitizes people to murder and violence because, by executing people, the state sends the message that violence is an acceptable means of resolving conflicts. The death penalty also reduces the gravity of the loss of human life by making it legal for the state to kill people it deems to be beyond reform (Winters 57). Death penalty opponents defend their claims that the death penalty actually causes an increase in crime citing statist ...
... adding more fiber increasing their bulk. Many athletes turn to steroids more often because they're cheaper then marijuana or cocaine. A ten week cycle of testosterone cypinate and methandrostone costs only about one hundred dollars. Steroids are also very hard to trace because of their water base composition. They can pass through the body within two days. All these benefits of steroids help an athletes become more competitive and increase their chance of being a winner. Of course everybody wants better biceps and triceps but when using steroids to achieve this goal there is a large price to pay. However, steroids sho ...
... and drugs were definitely not going to get in the way. I promised myself I would not end up like Jimi Hendrix, or Janis Joplin, both found dead after overdoses, because I had the power to say no. I had read stories and seen news flashes about the side effects of some drugs. I had read newspaper articles about people in Rome, which is just a few minutes away, dying of heroin overdoses. I had seen people on TV that were alive, but were not conscious of their surroundings, because of drug use. Their lives were basically over. I had listened to speakers preach that drugs were one of the Devil's tools. There was no way I would even consider ever trying them, because once a person starts, ...
... leads potential criminals not to fear the death penalty because government today uses more "humane" methods of execution, rather than the brutal punishment that history portrayed. People who oppose the death penalty say that "there is no evidence that the murder rate fluctuates according to the frequency with which the death penalty is used" (Masur 153). It is more likely that the convict would be paroled instead of being executed because of the present practice of allowing unlimited appeals. Convicted criminals are not exposed to cruel punishment, but rather given a long waiting period. If the criminal is put to death, it is usually done as mercifully as possible. One problem with the ...
