Neutralization is when a person denies or justifies there acts, no matter how deviant their acts are (McIntyre 2014). When people who are guilty of a crime are taken to jail and put into a trial, they typically deny the fact that they did the crime, but when they are “proven” that they had committed the crime they would typically justify it.

How Inevitable is Criminal Recidivism Once a criminal always a criminal, at least that’s what our society likes to believe. We tend to label most people with who they are or what they do, whether that is negative or positive is a critical point to a person’s reputation. Recidivism by definition is a tendency to relapse into previous condition or mode of behavior; especially: relapse into criminal behavior. Criminal Recidivism rates are so high that we seem to get stuck in our ways of thinking

Profiles of high risk crime victims closely resemble profiles of crime perpetrators for numerous reasons, only some of which are clear on first appearance. In lecture we learned that the archetypically-profiled victim of robbery is a poor, young, single, city-dwelling male of minority ethnicity, and is victimized by a member of his own race (Lecture, 2015). It is thus easy to imagine why a criminal might choose to prey on someone young, isolated, lacking resources, physically proximate, and free

In fact, transferring a higher and security prison gang member could be the impetus to transfer his prison gang to

My opinion of incarcerating a juvenile with adults in prisons and jails are somewhat skeptical. I believe the biggest factor in determining if a juvenile should be housed with an adult in a prison or jail depends on the historical criminal characteristics of the juvenile and the volume of the crime. Anyone who has spent time in a local courtroom knows the caseloads are significantly larger than criminal or circuit court proceedings, and the prosecution along with the defense counsel seems to speed
