Why The Penal Laws Failed
Number of words: 1573 - Number of pages: 6.... the Catholics from
Ireland. The first penal law was implemented into the Irish community on
December 24, 1691 when William and Mary made an Anti Catholic declaration
for the oath of supremacy. The oath banned all Catholics from becoming
members of the parliament or any other position of power. Catholics could
not practice law, run for office, purchase land or own land, vote, enter
any profession, hold arms, guard a child or educated his/her child. The
purpose of setting up such laws was to lessen the overall power of the
catholic people in society. The Irish parliament believed that if .....

Computer Generated Evidence In Court
Number of words: 4698 - Number of pages: 18.... conditions are satisfied. These conditions are set out in detail
in section 69 of the Police and Criminal Evidence Act (PACE) 1984 (see further
Nyssens 1993, Reed 1993 and Tapper 1993).
In general the principles of admissibility are that the evidence must be
relevant to the proof of a fact in issue, to the credibility of a witness or to
the reliability of other evidence, and the evidence must not be inadmissible by
virtue of some particular rule of law (Keane 1994, pp 15-20; Tapper 1990, pp 51-
61).
Real evidence usually takes the form of some material object (including computer
output) pr .....

The FBI
Number of words: 1090 - Number of pages: 4.... antitrust crime, and neutrality
violation. During World War One, the Bureau was given the responsibility of
investigating espionage, sabotage, sedition (resistance against lawful
authority), and draft violations. The passage of the National Motor Vehicle
Theft Act in 1919 further broadened the Bureau's jurisdiction.
After the passage of Prohibition in 1920, the gangster era began, bringing
about a whole new type of crime. Criminals engaged in kidnapping and bank
robbery, which were not federal crimes at that time. This changed in 1932 with
the passage of a federal kidnapping s .....

The Corruption Crisis Of The E
Number of words: 2068 - Number of pages: 8.... area of the untolerated behaviour. White corruption on the other hand is the behaviour that is tolerated by the public in a given society and not looked upon as misbehaviour. Grey corruption is the area in between, which is tolerated by a part of the society, while seen as corruption by the other part. It is also important to realize the dynamics of the definition of corruption, as it changes with geography or time from black to grey to white corruption (or vica versa). Corruption scandals are often only a sign of this change in the public perception of corruption.
These cultural differ .....

Abortion Debate - Pro-Life Sta
Number of words: 4090 - Number of pages: 15.... Century? It is an
incontrovertible fact of biological science - Make no Mistake - that
from the moment of conception, a new human life has been created.
Only those who allow their emotional passion to overide their
knowledge, can deny it: only those who are irrational or ignorant
of science, doubt that when a human sperm fertilizes a human ovum a
new human being is created. A new human being who carries genes in its
cells that make that human being uniquely different from any and other
human being and yet, undeniably a member, as we all are, of the great .....

The Debate Over Capital Punishment
Number of words: 734 - Number of pages: 3.... who committed this offence, can
also happen to me.
But individuals who commit any types of crime ranging from auto theft to
1st-Degree Murder, never take into account the consequences of their actions.
Deterrence to crime, is rooted in the individuals themselves. Every human has a
personal set of conduct. How much they will and will not tolerate. How far they
will and will not go. This personal set of conduct can be made or be broken by
friends, influences, family, home, life, etc. An individual who is never taught
some sort of restraint as a child, will probably never understand a .....

The Need For Gun Control
Number of words: 1594 - Number of pages: 6.... arguments over something so minuscule as a pair of shoes, a particular
type of jacket, or simply just a misinterpreted look. I believe that more
strict handgun regulations are a must in today's society. I'm not saying that
we have to ban handguns, but we have to take legislative measures in order to
limit the possibility of handguns falling into the hands or youths. Peter Annin
and Tom Morganthau state that according to the Federal Bureau of Investigation's
Uniform Crime Report, murders committed by persons under the age of eighteen who
were arrested jumped from 1,193 in 1985 to 298 .....

Capital Punishment: Pro
Number of words: 1323 - Number of pages: 5.... of the death penalty feel that offenders should be punished for
their crimes, and that it does not matter whether it will deter the crime rate.
Supporters of the death penalty are in favour of making examples out of
offenders, and that the threat of death will be enough to deter the crime rate,
but the crime rate is irrelevant.
According to Isaac Ehrlich's study, published on April 16, 1976, eight murders
are deterred for each execution that is carried out in the U.S.A. He goes on to
say, "If one execution of a guilty capital murderer deters the murder of one
innocent life, the execution i .....
