...SEXUAL ASSAULT SCENARIOS In this case there are two types of sexual assault witch one of them was where people actually use “molly’s” to drug their victims and put them to sleep. Once they did that’s when the other person would take advantage of the victim and rape them. In the other scenario it had to do with a young man that was being accused of rape but he says that the female consented to it, and the female was the one to go on him, but then the next morning he was getting accused of rape because supposable the female was drunk and that he took advantage of here but in my opinion I don’t think it should be rape because he did not grave her against her will or anything he just wanted to have a good time and so did she. If anything I think she should be the one to get in trouble since she can’t control herself when she drinks. So really in my opinion the big difference is just technically one is on purpose and had the intent of rape and the situation was just an accident the young man wasn’t of where that she was not drunk nor he forced the female into sexual activity. In the second situation u can bring up reasonable doubt, first because there is a chance that the young mad did not know the female was under the influence of alcohol, second the young man said that it was the female coming on to him, that she was the one taking off his clothes of course she didn’t force the young man to take them off which shows yes he consented but also the female by taking off his...

...Institutions of higher learning across the United States have been rocked by reports of rape and sexual assault. Federal, state and local officials have become involved, as schools work to revise their policies and procedures to prevent further incidents. A survey commissioned by the Association of American Universities, the results of which were released in September 2015, found that more than 27% of female college seniors reported having experienced some form of unwanted sexual contact since entering college. Meanwhile, two high-profile lawsuits have kept the topic of college sexual assault in the national spotlight. In 2015, a former Florida State University student filed a lawsuit against the school for its handling of her sexual assault report and another against former Florida State football star Jameis Winston, who she has accused of raping her in 2012. The research on many facets of these problems is incomplete, but new reports and data-rich studies can help deepen perspective. In December 2014, the federal Bureau of Justice Statistics released a report focusing on nearly 20 years of data related to rape and sexual assault among women ages 18 to 24. In 2014, President Obama appointed the White House Task Force to Protect Students from Sexual Assaults. During the research phase, the Rape, Abuse and Incest National Network (RAINN) provided the White House with an extensive list of recommendations urging “the task force to remain focused on the true cause of the problem...

In serious cases the parent or guardian is removed and the child is placed with a family member or foster family for the time being. After a child is placed in the system there are services provided to the families that need assistance with the protection and care of the child. The system arranges adoption or permanent family conection for the child once they leave foster care. These children also recieve mental halp due to the abuse that was inflicted on them.

...The Allentown Stalker On November 10, 1994, Harvey “Miggy” Robinson was sentence to death for multiple accounts of murdered, torture, and sexual assaults. After ten years of filing appeals, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that Robison will only be charged as an adult for the Fortney case, since he was eighteen when he committed the murder and sexual assult (Grimming, 46). The rational choice theory explains why Robison’s violent routine activity became a lifestyle after his first nonviolent crime. In the narrative of the Allentown Stalker, it states that Robinson was incarcerated in juvenile detention for eight months before he committed any violent crime (Grimming, 39). According to our lecture, after a juvenile’s first arrest they are most...

Correctional officers go through a similar training that the police recruits do. Being a corrections officer is not easy your job is maintaining a jail everyday. Work environment affects jail staff. Positive work situations could also help the professionalism in the work environment. Positive relations with coworkers and work standards (rules and policies) can also have a big impact.

...Do female sexual abusers escape with lighter sentences just because they are females? I think the term "sex offender" is a very large term that makes a big deal of different types of crimes. For example, imagine a 18 year old college student while at a drunken party decides to have sexual relations with his 16 year old girlfriend who is also drunk, but "consented”, would be labelled a "sex offender" the next morning when her father finds out and the police press charges. That 18 year old is now a RAPIST and sex offender for life and on equal grounds with a 60 year old pedophile who spent 30 years in prison for actually raping a 9 year old girl! Are these two people "morally" equal? One is a sick pervert who raped a kid and the other is a kid who made a mistake in his youth and suffered the consequences from it. People don't consider these things when they see the term "sex offender". The common thinking is that if you've seen one sex offender, you've seen them all. Except when it comes to females. Going back to the party scenario, if boyfriend and girlfriend are both drunk and have sex, the male is always guilty of rape but the female for some reason isn't. After all, the male was drunk so technically he couldn't "consent" either right? So why is it that HE raped HER and not the other way around? Aren't they guilty of the same crime? The fact is, society doesn't take women seriously as sex offenders and we don't even...

...Running Head: Title IX Court Case Research on Title IX Court Case FIRST M. SURNAME INSTITUTIONAL AFFLIATION TITLE IX Court Case Introduction Title IX is a part of the Education Amendments of 1972. The amendment protects the citizens from discrimination from academic programs on the basis of their gender(Carpenter & Acosta, 2005). It provides that persons of either gender can be granted an opportunity in any education program within taking into consideration their gender. Title IX protects all the students enrolled in government sponsored institutions from discrimination. As much as the code of Civil Rights caters for the protection against such there are still areas where discrimination can arise (Boland, 2002).. For instance, enrollment in some degree programs or some sporting activities might be based on discriminating nature. The Amendments also guard the student against sexual harassment. This paper will look at the process of filing a Title IX lawsuit. It will analyze based on a sample case study on how to overcome the case based on the current provision of the Education Amendments as well as other relevant laws that pertain to that case. It will observe the consequences of the outcome of the case to the participants of the case. The evaluation will consider all the other external factors that are involved in the process of the filing process and representation in the court of law.

...Freeman Edwards & Caleb Moore Mrs. Dills Hysteria Prevention Proposal September Here in this small town USA some quit disturbing physical and verbal confrontations have been occurring. This hysteria among our community that has spread like wildfire could not have come at a worse time. Besides the 1930’s this is the first time that ¼ of America’s population has gone under the poverty line. This statistic indicates that one out of every four families is not getting their basic necessities met. Not to mention the ramped wildfire of liberalism and the trillion dollar debt we as Americans are going through. As I see it at this rate the problem will venture out of the school’s walls and into the neighborhoods surrounding areas. The way we see it this could abrubtly end American life as we now know it. As the principal of our school it is your job to use these walls as a barrier and a symbol to bring back order. In our eyes you will be viewed as a hero if you can undermine and idea to end this. Ofcourse, we as two of your brightest young male students are going to offer our two cents as to how you can mend this school back together.

...May of 2010 T.S.A. worker Rolando Negrin assults a co-worker for jokes about his penis size after a training session with a total body scanner. The T.S.A. is using total body scanners in an attempt to reveal more hidden threats. The agency and the scanners manufacturer insist that passenger embarrassments are impossible due to features installed to prevent such from happening. Most of us would agree to a brief flash of quasi-nudity if it meant a safe flight. Body scanners and pat-downs are supposed to make passengers feel safer by detecting potential threats that could bring down an airplane. More than nine years after the 9/11 attacks, it seems that airport security may have crossed the line. Grassroots groups are calling on people either not to fly or to protest by refusing to submit to those full body scans, the ones that show everything. Major airline pilot unions are urging their members to avoid body scans. They are worried about health risks associated because of repeated small doses of radiation along with intrusiveness and security officer behavior. The T.S.A. insists that the machines are safe. And you believe what the government tells you, don’t you? A quote from security guru Bruce Schneier, a plaintiff in the body scanner lawsuit, calls this “magical thinking… descend on what the terrorists did last time and we will all be safe, as if they won’t think of something else”...

Crusader armies managed to defeat two substantial Turkish forces at Dorylaen and at Antioch. The Crusaders were finally able to journey to Jerusalem, but with only a fraction of their original forces. The fall of Moorish Toledo, a Muslim kingdom, to the Kingdom of Leon, a Christian kingdom, in 1085 was a major victory. An effect of the First Crusade were mass executions of the Jews that accompanied the movement of the Crusader mobs through Europe. Another effect occured in 1099 during the Seige of Jerusalem where the Crusader army took Jerusalem by assult and massacred the population.

Introduction: Feminism is a movement that advocates for Women’s rights in a society dominated primarily by men.

Womanism goes by the hand of Feminism; Womanism advocates for rights of black women who face gender and racial oppression.
