QUESTION

Imagine you are a police chief or elected sheriff. You need to balance what the community desires in terms of dealing with problematic traffic matters (see Concept Resource to learn more) and the perception that traffic stops are conducted in opposition to positive community relations and further biased-practices in the criminal justice system. As the chief/sheriff, develop a list of five “rules” (essentially policies and procedures) the officers in your department must follow with respect to traffic stops. These rules must balance the need to address problematic traffic issues and positive community relations. For each rule, you must explain why and how the rule will balance these issues.

CCJ 5039 Self-Control, Crime and Criminal Justice

/0 Comments/in /by

QUESTION

Ch. 4 of Self-control and crime over the life course focuses on the wide-ranging theory and research on the factors that affect whether or not a child develops self-control in the first decade of life.

For this discussion, draw from that chapter to describe what you see as a  surprising or unexpected contributing factor to low self-control. Maybe it’s unexpected because it deals with a causal factor that you have never considered. Or maybe it’s unexpected because the empirical evidence on a familiar causal factor is different than what you expected. Either of these are fine (and there probably are other variations I’m not thinking of).
