The speaker argues that just because these men have been locked up, they shouldn't be locked out of their kids' lives. Do you agree or disagree? Explain.

Answers

It depends on the crime. If it is a crime involving sexual crimes against children then yes they should be out of their own children’s lives. Any type of violent acts against children should be considered too.

Answer:

I agree with the speakers statement. As many have pointed out, that one mistake or the decisions of the past should not put crippling restrictions on one's future. Incarceration is atonement for one's crimes, they already are isolated from the daily functions of society. However, keeping them from their loved one's and children is taking things too far.

Answers

Answer:

D. Citizens analyze the actions and words of elected officials -> Officials are held to account when they misbehave.

Explanation:

An informed citizen can better hold officials accountable for their actions. They can raise issue thru media or even their own blogs today. A. also has merit in that citizens educate themselves on important issues, but that should help dictate plans politicians should take, not make politicians communicate plans easier. Also C. Citizens understand how to acquire information leads to citizens are more likely to know how to vote. If C. was slightly reworded then it may be best as in citizens educate themselves on important issues and this leads to citizens making more informed votes. Instead, C. just says citizens understand how to acquire info instead of educate on the issues, and then it says know how to vote (there is not one know how way to vote), but rather should have said make an informed vote.

You are on your daily jog when a car negligently
pulls out in front of you. Unable to stop, you run into
it and injure yourself. Should you be able to recover

Is it enough to be "suspected" of terrorism, or should these suspects have the right to a fair trial before being detained indefinitely?

Answers

Answer:

Suspects must have a trial before being detained indefinitely.

Explanation:

Suspects of terrorism must be detained immediately, as a measure of security and disaster prevention, since terrorist acts tend to be gradual and involve causing terror and deaths in the population.

However, in order for this suspect to be detained indefinitely, there needs to be a fair trial where evidence will be analyzed that places this suspect as guilty or innocent, making his arrest or freedom justified.

Answer:

Well, obviously the cops would need some sort of reason to arrest these people before detaining them, not just because they may seem “suspicious”. I do believe that they must have a fair trial before being detained permanently because the police may not have any sort of theory or evidence just suspicion and that is not enough.

Is a non judicial settlement of a case in which the defendant exchanges a guilty plea for judicial concessions and reduced sentences

Answers

Answer:

Plea bargaining

Explanation:

Plea bargaining is described as the kind of non-judicial settlement as regards a case. In such a settlement the defendant or the accused reciprocates a guilty plea in return for judicial compromise and reduction in the period of sentences. It is type of negotiation between the defense and prosecution with an aim to settle a criminal case out of court i.e. without involving the judiciary. The defedents expect a judicial leniency in punishment or severity of charges filed in return for the guilty plead by the accused in such agreements. Thus, 'plea bargaining' is the correct answer.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

My opinion comes down to one aspect, how does the prisoner explain/represent their current state to their own children. As an example, some people would use their state to show and represent what would happen if their children did something aginst the law like them. Unlike them, some prisoners may decide to stay as they are without talking to their children which could change the view of the consequences of doing something illegal for a child.

What makes fingerprints individual and unique? How do scientists match a fingerprint to a specific person?

Answers

Answer:

your finger prints are unique that means no one in the world have the same ridges and lines that you have on your fingers

Explanation:

as the fetus moves there fingers rubs against the womb these tiny forces pushed the skin as it grows

Answer:

Fingerprints are unique because of ridge characteristics. These consist of ridge endings, enclosures, and other details. Fingerprints are useful in criminal investigations because of the very low probability that two different individuals could have left identical fingerprints. The FBI has databases that can compare millions of fingerprints and the advances in technology now allow investigators to digitize fingerprints. Using scanning techniques and sophisticated matching algorithms, investigators search through millions of records with lightning speed to find the perfect fingerprint match.

Answers

Answer: B. School prayer was banned in public schools across the United States.

Explanation: just took the test on apex

The effect of the Supreme Court decision described in this headline "Court Rules That School Board Cannot Sponsor Prayer" indicated that School prayer was banned in public schools across the United States.

In Engel v. Vitale, the Court ruled for public schools to ban supporting specific religions.Supporting or choosing particular religion is forbidden as the 1st Amendment allows all religions at an equal place.The 1st Amendment prevents the government from supporting religion and declaring it as official.America allows every religion to practice without any restriction from the government.

Therefore we can conclude that the Supreme Court decision dealt with the School prayers was banned.

Thus option B. is the correct answer.
