Corrections and Sentencing in Criminal Justice

Scenario As a veteran police officer on the force and have a new officer assigned as your partner. You and the brand-new patrol officer just arrested a driver for driving under the influence (DUI). This is the drivers second offense, and local policy requires the driver to be jailed and booked for DUI-Second Offense with a bail amount of $1,000.00. On your way to jail, the offender states, I have never been to jail before, what is the process? Since this is your partners first trip to jail as well, you take over the conversation and explain the process. As part of their training, you review the corrections system and sentencing options in criminal cases. You will need to create a training handout for your mentee to review during your upcoming training session. Instructions In your hand out, include the following: The difference between traditional and non-traditional corrections and examples of each. Security levels for prisons and why each are necessary. Alternate forms of sentencing and when an offender may receive this type of sentencing. Assessment Requirements/Submission Requirement: Use your preferred computer application/format, such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft PowerPoint, etc. Submit your handout into the drop-box as an attachment.
