they often endure extreme stress and harm when doing their job. It is not only their duty to protect the citizens of this state, but to also display appropriate action at all time. When analyzing the video called, “Cop Punches First Against Man Resisting Arrest,” it is evident that the suspect had a clear advantage on the officer in regards to his weight and height. After clearly assessing the interaction between the officer and suspect, I believe that the officer had every right to throw the first
officers. Sgt. Sines and myself escorted Katharine to unit #70 (vehicle with a cage). As we approached my vehicle Katharine placed her right foot in the door well not allowing officers to place her in the back seat. Officers informed Katharine to stop resisting. Katharine was advised several times to sit in the back seat of the vehicle, Katharine refused. Once officers were able to get Katharine in the back seat, she used her feet to kick the door open, not allowing officers to close it. After several minutes
The CCA is a major funder of private prisons, thus, prisons would have to keep their prisoners in longer to maintain funding while CCA gets a huge profit. ALEC made a bill called SB 1070 that allowed the police to arrest anyone who looked like an immigrant. In doing so, immigration detention facilities, that were basically just prisons, were filled and the CCA made a profit. Other reasons there are a lot of prisoners are because of the way the system works with bails
on the case of Michael Hugh Mirsky, who tells his personal story which highlights the struggle many men in America face. In 2012, Mr. Mirsky initially had lost his job working at Verizon which snowballed two years later into a conviction for resisting arrest. Due to the conviction, work is hard to find and this led to the threat of foreclosure of his home. Mr. Mirsky is unable to afford child support payments for his 8-year-old daughter. The search for a permanent position is near impossible
require certain powers, authority in order to perform their duties and this extends the power to arrest. This paper focuses on the decision of the court in DPP v Carr, the amendments on Law Enforcement (Powers and Responsibilities) Act (LEPRA) section 99 and a critical evaluation of statements made by Sentas and Cowdery. The decision in DPP v Carr The case of DPP v Carr is a fundamental case in evaluating arrest as a measure of last resort in the execution of a police officer’s duties. The brief facts
assault with intent to prevent the lawful arrest of another, and resisting his own arrest. In a Nova Scotia Youth Court, R.D.S. testified that he did not touch the police officer or assault him in any way. He stated that he spoke only to his cousin, who was being arrested by Constable Steinburg, to ask the nature of his arrest and whether or not to contact his mother. R.D.S. testified that Constable Steinburg told him to either "shut up" or face arrest. The youth argued that the police officer proceeded
After police discovered the bloody bodies in the apartment, they launched a manhunt to find Navarro-Canales that extended to the U.S. - Mexican border. About a week later, they found him in a strip mall nine miles from the apartment without him resisting arrest. Police believe that the killings happened on September 17 after they celebrated Navarro-Canales’s birthday a day before, and found the dead bodies on September 20. Adrian Navarro-Canales’s cousin came out and told investigators that Navarro-Canales
so this factor also favors Humphrey. Like Jones, where the plaintiff voluntarily entered a police station and the defendant officer did not even assert that the plaintiff resisted or fled an arrest, Humphrey was not under arrest and Pratchett did not attempt to arrest him, announce that he was under arrest, or claim that Humphrey fought back. This factor also favors Humphrey. Based on the Graham standard, which weighs the totality of the circumstances, each of the three factors favor Humphrey, therefore
The officer has to decide in what way he is going to proceed the encounter with. The officer can get physical with the individual, he can just pretend he never heard anything and let it go, or he could find the simplest probable cause to make an arrest. It is similar to when police officers are dealing with assholes. They need to figure out if the individual is going to cooperate, question, or go against police authority. Territoriality is also an important key to understanding police work. It is
The media represented the murder of Mathew Shepard as the perfect example of a hate-crime. However, JoAnn Wypijewski, in her article titled “The Boys Life” (Wypijewski 1), takes a deeper look at the case of Mathew Shepard and comes up with a more accurate thesis on why violence occurs in most situations. At the end of her essay, she writes, “It's said that hate-crime laws symbolize a society's values. If that is true, it means gay people are recognized only in suffering, and straight people are left
My Arrest and Rebirth With great embarrassment and pain, I must tell you that I have once been arrested; it was over a fight with my brother Jacob. The police attribute Jake's behavior to chemical dependence; my parents blame it on some unknown incident while he was at school. I don't know, myself; I do know that I returned from Israel to find Jake had taken over my room, as well as anything else in the house he could manipulate or control. The TV, VCR and computer were his absolute domain;
are also seen throughout The Trial. In The Metamorphosis, the anonymous force is whatever, or whoever, changed Gregor Samsa into an insect. In The Trial, the struggle is more complex. Joseph K struggles to find the true meaning behind his arrest. He searches for answers related to his case, but no one can give him a clear answer as to why he was arrested. Not even the inspector that arrested him, "These gentlemen here and myself have no standing whatever in this affair of
Warning is not around then the world of corrupt police will increase. The Miranda rights contain certain aspects that inform the criminal of his rights and also what can be used against them. The police are able to use what they say in the process of arrest in the court of law. This in no way will hindered the cop from performing their duties. The Miranda warning introduces laws and guarantees to the criminal that would not be present if they are not recited by the police at the beginning of the act
German businessman and was suspected of fraud in Germany. A court in Germany issued a warrant for his arrest on the 27th December 1996. The respondent left Germany at the end of 1995.

In the film, Wolf of Wall Street directed by Martin Scorsese, the root conflict that moves the action is a person vs. self conflict. The main character, Jordan Belfort, has only one goal, not to make the investors money, but to make himself money, and he will do anything to achieve that. He even goes as far as to sell investors stocks that he knows for sure that are garbage. While him doing this is completely legal, it is very unethical and causes Jordan to battle heavily with drugs and alcohol,
Waking up to authority burning people alive, and teenagers hitting people with cars for fun, versus freedom to read and say what you want, and people that care about the lives of others. Most people would choose the second option. The two societies that were just compared are the society in Fahrenheit 451, and our modern day society. While those two sound like exact opposites, they have much in common. All societies share the common characteristics that make a society, but we find the differences

This paper will go through the first arrest that a new police officer did while responding to a house break in. It will show what a FTL would say to the new officer on how they did with the situation after the arrest. We will identify four issues during the arrest that related to the Miranda Laws. Then, we will try and relate these issues to a historical case. Later, we will carefully analysis the situation and see if we could resolve the issues or not. We will then go over how these issues could
of justice, unlawful arrests and so on. There are remedies however, for those who abuse the system. In this essay I will critically consider the conditions for a lawful arrest. There is however, no concrete definition of arrest. It was deprived in Christie v Leachinsky (1947) that an arrest is ‘the beginning of imprisonment’, thereby suspects to a degree are physically restrained as they cannot be free to go wherever they like. So, during a criminal investigation, an arrest occurs whereby the police
carry out the arrests of so called saboteurs and spies that were plotting against the motherland of Russia. There were many innocent people put into work camps and jails because they stood up against the false charges of the saboteurs. "'And why was Alik arrested?' 'Oh, Natasha, if you only knew the kind of crude language he used in front of everyone in line. I'm sure now that his lounge was the undoing of Koyla,too'"(87) When Alik stood out and spoke his mind, leading to his arrest. This is very
