The most devastating result of the 2001 anthrax attacks is the lack of consequences for those persons responsible. There has not been enough evidence discovered or presented by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, or FBI, to adequately declare exactly who is responsible for the anthrax attacks. Regardless, there has been great speculation around a man named Steven Hatfill, and a large portion of the American society has placed the blame for the attacks on his shoulders.

This is the first threshold that Cohle crosses on his adventure. He and his partner find the church and a key piece of evidence linking it to the killer they are searching for. This first accomplishment in finding a piece of evidence signifies to the detectives, just as much as the viewer, that the case is progressing. They had not found any other evidence and this was welcomed by both partners. In this scene, Cohle experiences his first encounter of the immorality behind the crime. He sees in the

information they acquired visually. However, due to memory processing, presenting this information accurately is not always possible. This paper will discuss the reliability of eyewitness testimony, its use in a relevant court case, and how the reasonable person standard relates to eyewitness testimony. One cannot always accurately reproduce information due to the stages of memory processing that occur after witnessing an event. With each stage, the accuracy of the memory decreases.

This course has helped me in many ways, especially time management, health, and money. Instead of having a very relaxing week and then panicking at the end of the week when everything is due, this course has helped me to plan out my studies. Planning them out helps me produce higher quality work and assists me with my stress problem. One thing that has helped a lot is getting short easy assignments or parts of assignments done in short periods of extra time I have. For example, instead of turning

year’s photo line up’s of suspects have rightfully convicted many criminals, but have you ever stopped to think that some of the witnesses may misconceive who the perpetrators actually are. I have heard of a few criminal investigations where the wrong person was incarcerated for many years because of the witness’s identification of the “suspects” photo in a line up. When I saw this topic in the FBI’s archived stories I knew I had to read it. I know that the percentage of rightfully convicted criminals
2 (A). After spending three decades behind bars, DNA evidence proved Cornelius Dupree’s innocence. Dupree was arrested and eventually wrongfully convicted for the robbery of a woman and a man. He was indicted on both the robbery and rape of the woman, but since prosecuting him for the rape would not extend his 75 year sentenced handed down for the robbery, the rape charges were dismissed. DNA testing was not available at the time to exonerate him for the crimes. Even though he was not convicted for
In Trauma and Faith, Dr. Eriksson posed a question that caught on something inside of me and I have not been able to shake it since. She asked what we are to do with clients that are the perpetrators of trauma or whose trauma has led them to perpetuate the cycle. That stuck with me since in the field we mostly talk about treating the survivors not the perpetrators. As if divinely planned, a few weeks later I did an intake with a client at my practicum that embodied this very question. A member of
Person of Interest So think of someone you would like to meet or just get to know more thoroughly. Maybe they could help you with a problem you’re having, or maybe they’d just be interesting to talk to. Well, I’ve got a fictional character that millions of people know and love (to watch do blockheaded stuff) this funny, wacky, middle aged character is none other than Homer Simpson, I imagine he would be a very interesting person to talk to, considering all the fun, and enticing facts about him

There are many different types of ethical egoism: Personal ethical egoism, Individual ethical egoism, Universal ethical egoism, Categorical egoism, and Hypothetical egoism. Personal
Egoism is the philosophical concept of human self-interest and the relationship between ethics, altruism, and rationality (Robbins). Psychological egoism and ethical egoism are the two concepts or positions that explain how one is or ought to be motivated to obtain their self-interest. The difference between ethical and psychological egoism is that the former deals with how a person should act and the latter deals with a universal concept practiced by all.

defined as “The theory that the right action is the one that advances one’s own best interests. One’s only moral duty is to promote the most favorable balance of good over evil for oneself.

Ethical egoism is logically inconsistent because this theory can be proved
oneself self-interest, and when is it rude and selfish? How far does one have to go to not be selfish? In order to be not selfish, must a person spent all their time giving to others? Is in a way giving to others even show selfishness? If that is true is it possible to end selfishness? These questions do not have straight answers, and probably never will. Yet, to understand the importance of self-interest it is important to understand my opinion of the answers to these questions. Self-interest is when
