Child Sex Tourism Bill In Australia
.... age will be also targeted, as currently, this is a major
stumbling block on the course to justice. Finally to save time and cost, video
link hearings will be setup between the child in question overseas, and the
Australian courts.
The changes stated above were required to not only protect abused children
residing overseas, but to prove that the Australian Government is in touch with
the community values within Australian cities. The amendments made to the law
were needed because of the shameful amount .....

Legal Issues Case Study For Nursing
.... Slighta Hand, RN (fictitious name) administered the medication as
ordered and the child was observed for thirty minutes. Miss Hand's charting was
brief, almost illegible, and read, "Medicines given as prescribed. Cindy
observed without positive results. Physician notified."
The physician examined the child; notes read that the child had "minimal
clearing" in response to the bronchodilator. The following medications were
then prescribed: Elixir of turpenhydrate with codeine one milliliter by m .....

Medical Malpractice

assumed the duty to do so, you have created a "breach of duty", due and owing to
the patient. 3) Causal Connection. Your failure to correctly diagnose,

your failure to diagnose correctly, the patient sustained damages in the form of
an additional hospital stay, compli .....

Methods Of Execution
.... Two
copper electrodes, dipped in brine or treated with Eletro-Creme to increase
conductivity, are attached to him, one to his leg and the other to his head. The
first jolt, between five-hundred and two-thousand volts depending on the size of
the prisoner, is given for 30 seconds. Smoke will begin to come out of the
prisoner's leg and head and these areas may catch fire if the victim has been
sweating profusely. A doctor will examine him and if he still shows life signs,
more jolts of two-thousand volts ar .....

Opinion On The Death Penalty
.... by this ancient code of punishment. For example, we do not
rape the rapist's daughter; we do not kidnap the kidnapper's children; but if
the death penalty were permitted, we would " kill the killer". So why, as
educated citizens, would we want to lower ourselves to this level? Do we feel
that we need to show the power of the police force by killing the killers? The
death penalty is extremely barbaric and is often botched in order to let the
accused suffer for several minutes. Society by now .....

Pedophilia: Causes And Typologies
.... that they have endured. There is also a pedophile enhancement movement,
with confessed pedophiles insisting that their behavior is not wrong or immoral.
Organizations dedicated to the social acceptance of sex with children are not
new, yet have had a large upstart in membership since the early 1970's(Charon,
1979).
Because of the extreme sensitivity of the subject, research in this
field is quite underdeveloped. Researchers have even had trouble in agreeing
what to call the phenomenon. Much research .....

Police Blunders In The Manson Investigation
.... Bullington of the Bel Air Patrol was in his parked car when he
heard three gunshots spaced a few seconds apart. He immediately called in to
headquarters (the call logged in at 4:11 a.m.). Headquarters then called in to
LA
PD but nothing further was done. About four thirty paperboy Steve Shannon, who
hadn't heard anything the previous night, noticed what looked like a telephone
wire hanging over the front gate and a bug light on near the house. Mr. Kott
also noticed the wire when he went out to ge .....

the same situation their policy was to arrive in two minutes and stay for 20
minutes. This new program is the starting stages and already it has had great
reviews and great public support, as it brings the police closer to the
community. Another part of this community based policing is that there are crime
prevention comities that are run by various community groups that have monthly
meetings with the police. A police officer st .....

The Pros & Cons Of The Death Penalty
.... put him through Harvard Law
School. These people knew what they were doing when they did the crime, give
them consequences. There is also the "eye for an eye" argument. Make them feel
what their victims felt. The punishment for murder right now is three square
meals a day, a roof over their heads, a bed to sleep in, very often activities
to do. That include Tennis, Weightlifting, or even Prostitutes. Lets change
the penalty for murder from country club to Death.
The Cons:
"What if the man .....

The Effects Of Race On Sentencing In Capital Punishment Cases
.... various controls, the system does not
effectively eliminate racial bias.
According to Professor Steven Goldstein of Florida State University, "There are
so many discretionary stages: whether the prosecutor decides to seek the death
penalty, whether the jury recommends it, whether the judge gives it" (As cited
in Smolowe, 1991, 68). It is in these discretionary stages that racial biases
can infect the system of dealing out death sentences. Smolowe (1991) shows this
infection by giving examples of t .....

Law Does Not Drive Us, Reason Does
.... opposite view on this question.
He explained himself this way:
Human nature consists of three basic components. These are to
live,
propagate, and to dominate. If humanity was left without any
other
parameters, this natural state of existence would govern its
behavior. Fortunately there are parameters, and they are laws.
(Mosier)
What this basically says is that laws are made up to maintain order, monitor
actions, and work for the best interest of society as a .....

Reviving The Death Penalty
.... major felonies carried the death penalty: treason,
murder, larceny, burglary, rape, and arson. The American colonies adhered with
Englands' view on the death penalty, for there was little they could do about it.
However in the 1750's reform movements spread through Europe, and in 1847 they
reached the United States. In 1847, Michigan became the first state to abolish
the death penalty for murder.
Beginning in 1967, executions were suspended to allow the appellate
courts to decide whether the death .....

for it, they go bankrupt or renegotiate. Why should they have all that luxury
and not us? Hell, I can default on a loan as well as any of them!
Almost every company in America will ship you goods on credit if you project the
right image, ask the right questions and have the right answers...People will
kiss your ass if they think you have great wealth. The best resturants will seat
you "up front" if they think "you're a player". Why not? Sounds good to me...

The Death Penalty
.... efforts bore fruit. Michigan first
abolished the death penalty in 1847. Various public opinion polls report that
more than 70% of Americans favor the death penalty for murder. By 1991, some
2,350 persons were under the death sentence in 36 states. The death penalty
should be moral because, " a life for a life." Is the death penalty immoral?
Life imprisonment without the possibility of parole is a realistic alternative
for the small number of offenders who are likely to be executed in any given .....

The Effects Of Race On Sentencing In Capital Punishment Cases
.... Court decided, with efficient controls, the death penalty could be used
constitutionally. Yet, even with these various controls, the system does not
effectively eliminate racial bias.
Since Gregg v. Georgia the total population of all 36 death rows has
grown as has the number of judicial controls used by each state. Of the 3,122
people on death row 41% are black while 48% are white (Gest, 1996, 41). This
figure may be acceptable at first glance but one must take into account the fact
that o .....
