...Psychologists’ Roles within the Legal System Introduction There are many roles a forensic psychologist can choose to take part in, within the legal system, such as; the basic scientists, the applied scientists, policy evaluator, forensic evaluator, and consultant. Each of these roles has different duties/ responsibilities and may assist in or concentrate in different areas/ environments within the legal system. As a psychologist, within the legal system you will examine many individuals from the police officer to the victim. Being a psychologist within the legal system has many ethical obligations or issues that can arise. With this in mind, I will discuss more in detail the roles a psychologist plays in each environment within the legal system and some of the ethical issues. Basic Scientist There are many environments a forensic psychologist may choose to take part in. These environments are law enforcement, corrections, court system, and academic. Even though a psychologist can play a role in many environments, not all environments need every role of the psychologist. ”A basic scientist pursues knowledge for its own sake and studies a phenomenon for the satisfaction of understanding it and contributing to scientific advances in the area” (Greene, & Hailbrun, 2010 p18). As a basic scientist, there are some opportunities for the psychologists, in law enforcement and corrections. The psychologist can do training in a specific area; if the psychologist has knowledge of the...

In late May the U.S. Department of Justice announced strict new standards be placed on the police department of Cleveland, Ohio, after a review of its use of force against criminal suspects and others guilty only of talking back or running away from them. “There is much work to be done, across the nation and in Cleveland, to rebuild trust between law enforcement and the communities they serve where it has eroded,” stated the head of the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division, “but it can be done.” There are myriad reasons why African-American criminal suspects, most of whom are male, are killed by police. Some of these reasons have roots in the revolutionary changes of the 1960s and the push to grant equal civil rights to people of color. The slogans “law and order” and the “War on Drugs,” employed by Richard Nixon and Ronald Reagan in the late ’60s and early 1970s, were designed to attract angry white men who were traumatized by the rapid social transformations of the civil rights movement.

...male and female, and people are discussing if feminism still matters today. Men are saying that feminism is only here to get rid of them and to make woman the supreme. Menism was funded by a group of young boys to mock feminism, as the young boys mean that feminism makes men look like predators and rapist. There is also a female movement going on against feminism as one of the quotes are ‘’I love men and their values’’, which as they mean that feminism is to destroy men and make women the supreme. In the short story ‘’Tearing’’ by Marcia Blumenthal tells a story about a young woman who gets raped by one of her housemates. The young woman didn’t tell the crime to the police, because she knew that the police wouldn’t believe her, as the man who raped her was a white male. She even writes that if the man wasn’t black or from another color, the police would never believe her. Feminism is against rape whether female or male who raped. Feminism is clearly about sending out the message that rape should be reported to the police no matter what, but women are still scared of reporting it as they feel that it was them who did wrong or they’re afraid that no one would believe them and it would cause them big problems, as in the short story, were the young woman would not report the rape as she knew no one would believe her. In this case, this young woman should have gotten help from feminism to solve her problems as rape can lead to suicide and, in some cases, the chance of getting raped...

...“The Trials of Darryl Hunt” Marissa Bonito CRJ 425 Tuesday/Thursday 3:05-4:20 March 31, 2015 On September 11, 1984 Darryl Hunt was arrested for the rape and murder of Debora Sykes. The police received a tip from a 911 phone call from a man named Johnny Gray. At the time of the call Mr. Gray claimed to be Sammy Mitchell, who was well known by the police and prosecutors. Don Tisdale the district attorney on the case prosecuted Sammy Mitchell numerous times, and saw Darryl as a young version of him. The first time Mr. Hunt was picked up by the police he claimed his innocence and cooperated with them. Later Darryl stated that the D.A. offered him $12,000 to say Sammy Mitchell committed the murder, and promised all charges against him would be dropped. If Mr. Hunt refused Tisdale said he would seek the death penalty in his case. Darryl refused to turn his friend in, and was charge with the rape and murder of Sykes even though there was no physical evidence linking him to this case. His charges were based on the 911 phone call, and an ID made by a previous Klan member Thomas Murphy. During this time Hunt met a man named Larry Little. Mr. Little started independently investigating Darryl’s case because he felt there was no way Darryl could commit this brutal crime. After talking to people in the neighborhood Larry soon learned that Johnny Gray was known as a shady and unreliable source. Little brought this to the attention of defense attorneys Mark Rabil and Larry Gordon...

...Experiment Joseph Roby Carrington College Wednesday, December 4, 2013 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment It’s been over 42 years now since an illustrious experiment was performed by a couple of Stanford Psychologists that would ultimately change the course on how we look at people with the right of authority. In 1971, Psychology Professor Dr. Phillip Zimbardo operated a psychology experiment called the 1971 Stanford Prison Experiment to see just how ordinary people would react when given authority over another helpless being. This experiment would take place inside the psychology rooms of the Stanford College, and would durate between the dates of August 14, 1971 to August 20, 1971. Guards would be hired and given legitimate power over mock prisoners to see what levels of domestication they would impose on them. The experiment would start off cool and harmonious, but would eventually take a blinding turn for the worst. After just six days the experiment was brought to an unforeseen end and never reached the two week frame that it was given. In just those six days Dr. Zimbardo, and eventually a wide audience, would forever know the 1971 Stanford prison experiment as an experiment that would change the amount of power someone could and will be given in a title of authority. It was never Dr. Zimbardo’s intention to create something so impactful, or maybe just not in the way it impacted our society. Before his experiment the citizens who were put in a state of power were supervised...

A study or research is only considered to be ethical if there is favorable risk benefit ratio (Wikipedia, 2008). Background on the Stanford Prison Experiment The Stanford Prison Experiment was created by Professor Philip Zimbardo who led a team of researchers at Stanford University in 1971. The study was designed to observe and study the human responses to captivity by both the inmates and the authority figures. In order to carry out the experiment, a mock prison was created in the basement of the Stanford psychology building and 24 males were selected to play the roles of both guards and inmates (Haney, 1973). The participants were screened and selected form a pool of 75 candidates. The experiment began with the Palo Alto police department making fake arrests of the men chosen to act in the roles of the prisoners. Within 24 hours of the beginning of the experiment...

The public health personnel are responsible to make sure the community that had become a victim of a disaster is healthy and safe. They also assess and evaluate what the immediate and long term issues are. The public health personnel are made up of a team. The major team includes finance/administration chief, logistics chief, public information officer, operations chief, liaison officer, planning chief, and public health nurse. Members of the public health personnel should be trained not only in their designated roles but also be familiarized of the other member’s roles. In case there is a shortage in the staff, they can rearrange and stand in where needed. In this disaster the public health nurse went around door to door in the neighborhoods, interviewing, and assessing the needs of the victims.

Then the public health nurse takes back the information collected and informs the emergency operation center (EOC). The public information officer gathers information from other members and agencies in order to provide correct information and awareness to the public. Some of the information they may provide is...

Under our skin, we share identical functioning. Somewhere between our pigmentation and our culture we have lost our rationality. For some reason, the media exposes more crime from minorities, creating prejudice. It is important to take this problem under consideration because tons of people may be wrongfully accused or even imprisoned every year because of racial profiling. In order to further explain this topic, several researchers have studied cases in which race has interfered with lawful decision making in important figures such as jurors or traffic police.
