SOC 305 Week 3 Assignment Myths and Reality of
Crime (Ash)

• Myths and Reality of Crime. As we learn in the

  tends to focus on street crime, often ignoring
  much more significant problems such as
  white-collar, corporate, and state crime. The
  video also discusses euthanasia, although the
  point of this reference is to illustrate how the
  law can be used as a tool for social change. The
  video also discusses moral values with a focus on
  media coverage of harm to children

SOC 305 Week 3 DQ 1 Child or Adult (Ash)

• Child or Adult? Determining whether to try a
  child in the juvenile or the criminal justice
  system will have an impact on every step of his
  or her experience. Although the exact laws and
  practices of the systems vary from state to
  state, broad underlying beliefs differentiate the
  two systems. While the juvenile system is often
  thought to be more lenient in its punishments,
  there are often stricter regulations throughout
  the process. In the juvenile system a child may
  not have a right to a jury trial or bail.
  Juvenile records are not open to public access
  like criminal records and parole is very
  different between the two systems. When the child
  in question is considered a child, the courts act
  as more of a parent attempting to punish but also
  protect.

12

• Relationships in Prison. Womens relationships in
  prison commonly fulfill an emotional need. They
  are different from mens sexual relationships in
  prison in that they are less likely to involve
  coercion or be motivated by power and status
  grabs. In addition to romantic relationships,
  female inmates are also likely to form prison
  families with roles that mimic mothers, sisters,
  and even grandmothers. For many inmates, their
  prison family is the first positive female role
  modeling they have encountered.

SOC 305 Week 5 DQ 1 School Shootings (Ash)

• School Shootings. As we learn in the readings,
  media reports of school crime tend to create
  misconceptions of a danger that is actually quite
  small for the overwhelming majority of school
  users. In fact, given the number of students,
  teachers, and other personnel in schools on any
  given day, it is quite astounding how few violent
  episodes there are. To track violence in schools,
  read the US Department of Justice and US
  Department of Education report, Indicators of
