Transcript: Ethics Introduction Introduction Ethics is the center of any functional society and this is because it defines what amounts to a wrong and what amounts to what is a wrong and what is a right. Ethics is used to establish the punishment for wrong doers. Ethics in Criminal justice Ethical view of the system There have been many cases of ethical issues in the criminal justice system and this especially concerns the conduct of the different officers such as the police officers. The main ethical issue in the criminal justice system is corruption. Different authors have different findings on the issue of corruption in the criminal justice system Criminal Justice Criminal justice composition Criminal Justice is the system in which criminals are identified by their crimes, detained, judged and punished. The main components of the criminal justice system include law enforcement, the court system, and corrections facilities Ethics in Criminal justice Ethics in Criminal Justice Officers in the criminal justice system are used to enforce laws and order and as such are required to be a model to the society when it comes to morality. It is important for the officers to have high ethical standards so that the people can emulate that from them. Ethical dilemma Ethical dilemma The officers in the criminal justice system are often faced with ethical dilemmas. An ethical dilemma occurs where the officers have to make a hard choice of whether to behave in a moral way or compromise morality. Most of the time this dilemma is fueled when there is a financial incentive to do wrong Criminal justice ethics Criminal justice Corruption Corruption Corruption is a form of dishonesty or a criminal offense which is undertaken by a person or an organization which is entrusted with a position of authority, in order to acquire illicit benefits or abuse power for one's personal gain. The criminal justice officers have been seen to take bribes from the people for services which they have an obligation to offer them. Officers also use corruption to hide their own crimes Description Officers become motivated by money. The criminal justice system is loosing its efficiency in undertaking its roles because of the greed and the desire by the officers to become rich using mischief. Illustration Corruption illustration Corruption in criminal justice system Impacts of Corruption The corrupt criminal justice officers such as the police officers result into negative effects in the criminal justice system. 1. Corruption makes the people loose trust in the police and the courts. 2. Accelerates crimes in communities since criminals do not pay for their wrong doings. 3. Unfair punishment of innocent people who end up paying for the crimes of other people. 4. Nullifies the essence of the criminal justice system. People cannot place their trust and faith in the criminal justice system when they know that justice can be "bought". People who end up in courts and prisons are sometimes innocent because some officers somewhere received a bribe to cover up the real criminals. If the people who are given the responsibility to protect the people and maintain law and order are corrupt, it is a sad state of affairs as people are not guaranteed the justice which criminal justice system is obligated to offer Negative effects Moral Risks Moral Risks of Policing These are the motivations which encourage the police officers to be involved in misconduct. The moral risks include moral disengagement, moral compromise, moral licensing and Slippery slope (Blumberg et al., 2020) Prevention of Misconduct Prevention strategies 1. Minimizing the emotional and spiritual distress during hiring and training can help minimize the likelihoods of misconduct in the criminal justice system. 2. Supervision of the criminal justice system. 3. Wellness efforts to ensure mental and emotional stability of the officers 4. Strict regulations and laws against misconduct What is Organized Crime? Organized Crime in criminal justice Organized crime refers to the coordinated illegal activities among criminal justice officers for financial gains over a period of time (Sorell, 2018). The organized crimes accelerate the terrorism rates in the country. Most of the gangs are empowered by the criminal justice system due to corruption that makes it hard for the gangs to be pinned down Ethics in Public Service The public sector is another sector which is filled with ethical issues. The misconduct among the public service officers has created a need to look into the actions of most public service officers (Hossain et al., 2020). People in public service including criminal justice officers are expected to be diligent people and people of integrity. Most officers however do not display the public service values and engage themselves in criminal activities. Ethics in Public service References

Transcript: Police Abuse of Power By Brooklyn Warne “It is not possible to be in favor of justice for some people and not be in favor of justice for all people.” — Martin Luther King Jr. Police abuse of power has been a problem since 1877 and continues to be to this day. Intro All over the world, police are constantly abusing the amount of power that they are given. The Victimes of Law enforcement abuse The Victims of law enforcement abuse Many people who are victims of law enforcement abuse of power are left feeling they have no possible chance at getting back at the police officer who injured them and abused his or her power as a police officer. EVIDENCE “In 2009 The Cato Institute reported 449 incidents of reported police misconduct which were tracked in the national news.” (SFD “Law Enforcement Abuse of Power”). "In the early hours of March 3, 1991, a police chase in Los Angeles ended in an incident that would become synonymous with police brutality. It was the beating of a young man named Rodney King by members of the Los Angeles Police Department. An amateur video, televised nationwide, showed King lying on the ground while three officers kicked him and struck him repeatedly with their nightsticks" (ACLU “Fighting Police Abuse”). “only 110 officers since 2005 have been charged with murder or manslaughter, and only 42 officers have been convicted.” (Cuncic “Understanding what Police Brutality Is”). Ways police officers break the law Police officers can break the law and disobey department policies by being dishonest, by favoriting races, and by failing to carry out their duties properly. Ways Police Officers break the law “The most common complaint against police officers is excessive force.” (ELU, How to File a Complaint Against a Police Officer in California). “Almost 78,400 law enforcement officers in California during that time, 0.1 percent were arrested.” (Deepak Premkumar, Alexandria Gumbs, Shannon McConville, and Renee Hsia, Police Use of Force and Misconduct in California) EVIDENCE “About 1,000 fatal police shootings are reported each year in the US — so the arrest rate is around 1 percent, never higher than 2 percent. Some, perhaps most, shootings are justified.” (German Lopez, Police officers are prosecuted for murder in less than 2 percent of fatal shootings) EXAMPLES Police Misconduct Police abuse of power can also be known as police misconduct. Police misconduct indicates inappropriate behavior from law enforcement officers and could go from uncontrolled force to corruption. Police Misconduct A New York woman was violently raped and sexually assaulted by New York City police officers Eddie Martins and Richard Hall after they arrested her on drug charges for possession of marijuana. The officer threatened the woman with criminal charges if she reported the crimes. She got lucky in her case and ended up reporting the crime, and the officers were charged with kidnapping, coercion, and sex crimes. (DiCindio Law LLC, 10 Examples of Police Misconduct To Refer to for Your Case in Pennsy) “Castile was pulled over for a traffic stop. He informed the officer he had a legal firearm in the vehicle. He agreed not to reach for the firearm.The officer fired seven times into the vehicle when Castile reached for his identification. The officer killed Castile in front of his child and girlfriend, who were in the vehicle with Castile.” (DiCindio Law LLC, 10 Examples of Police Misconduct To Refer to for Your Case in Pennsy) “Chicago police officers arrested Jackson after she pulled another officer from a burning car after a car crash. The officers accused Jackson of stealing the officer’s firearm. Officers coerced Jackson into signing a statement. She remained in jail until a judge dismissed her case ten months later. Jackson sued the police department for false arrest, malicious prosecution, and coercive questioning. She received a $7.7 million award.” (DiCindio Law LLC, 10 Examples of Police Misconduct To Refer to for Your Case in Pennsy) EVIDENCE Once again, I would like to emphasize that it is a huge problem all over the world that the police are constantly abusing the amount of power that they are given. Police misconduct can be found in different forms, and some of which can have very sad consequences for the victims. Concluding Police abuse of Power is awful and the police officers who abuse their power need to be punished in ways that will make sure it won’t happen again.

Dual Charge Policy- In cases of domestic violence, where the police are not able to discern which of the two partner's is the perpetrator, both parties will be charged. http://www.statcan.gc.ca/pub/85-002-x/2013001/article/11805/11805-3-eng.htm Resources For Victims Of Intimate Partner Violence Some of the causes of intimate partner violence are: Drugs and Alcohol Abuse Self Esteem Poverty Aggression Environmental Issues People in domestic violence cases Charges Of Intimate Partner Violence R. v. Ryan1 is a case about domestic violence and a woman who tried to take matters into her own hands. She hired a hit man to have her husband killed after years of severe domestic violence. She was caught by the RCMP and charged for trying to kill her husband. At trial, she tried to use a rare defence called “duress” to justify her crime. She and her lawyer argued that because she was abused for so long and the police and other authorities would not help her, she felt she had no other way to protect herself and her daughter. The lower courts found that she was under “duress” and not guilty. The case went to Canada’s highest court, the Supreme Court of Canada. The Supreme Court disagreed with the decisions of the lower courts and ruled that this defence was not available in her situation. However, the court stayed (stopped) the criminal proceedings because of everything she had been through. Effects on Children Battered Woman Syndrome- The set of symptoms, injuries, and signs of mistreatment seen in a woman who has been repeatedly abused by a spouse, partner, or relative.

Of the 48 thousand incarcerated youth, 2.3 thousand are incarcerated for status violations, and 8.6 thousand are incarcerated for technical violations. Of the remaining population, 455.6 thousand are incarcerated for drug charges, and 13 thousand are incarcerated for unlawful immigration. What are the major issues in these populations? Youth 48,000 Federal Prisons 225,000 State prisons 1.216 million Local jails 615,000 Double click to edit Drugs "Status Offenses Acts that are noncriminal for adults, but illegal if committed by a juvenile, such as truancy or possession of alcohol or cigarettes. (Ferro, 134)". "Technical Violation An act by a probationer or parolee that is in violation of the conditions of probation or parole, but does not rise to the level of criminal offense. (Ferro, 134)". What are Technical Violations and Status Offenses? Technical and Status Violations Typical status offense include truancy, underage drinking, and underage smoking. Laws vary from state to state, as an example we can view California versus New York versus Washington laws regarding truancy. What could this look like in an everyday situation? A decent example California, San Luis Obispo County "46012. For purposes of any procedure for verification of absences from school, a student 18 years of age or over, with respect to his own absences from school, shall have all of the responsibilities and powers which, in the case of a minor, would be charged to the parent, guardian, or other person having charge or control of the minor. (Enacted by Stats. 1976, Ch. 1010.)" Code 48205 defines excused absences and the necessities mediated by such absences. Truancy in California can cause parents to be fined, or students to be fined, incarcerated, or have their licenses suspended. The ramifications of such could impact a students career and post-secondary education drastically. California Truancy Laws California New York Truancy Laws New York Kennewick, Washington "Washington State Law requires that children between the age of 8 and 18 attend school regularly (if the child is between the ages of 6-8 and enrolled in school, the law applies). You are in violation of the Washington State Truancy Law if one or more of the following is true: if a student has five (5) or more unexcused absences in one month; or if a student has ten (10) or more unexcused absences in one year." The penalties may fall onto parents or students; the state will petition against the parent or student for truancy. If a student continues to miss school, the parent may be held in contempt. Parents are fined $25 a day, and community hours may be ordered. Students may be required to attend informational classes, school-based tutoring, community service, work crew, or detention.
