Consider all you have learned about Procedural Justice as you create the following paper: 1. Identify a police or law enforcement agency you are familiar with; describe the community and the agency with relevant demographics and/or statistics related to size; community served; number of officers; diversity of force; etc. (1 page in length) 2. For both internal and external procedural justice, identify one strength and one weakness that law enforcement agency has. Explain how each of these strengths and weaknesses affect the agency’s legitimacy. (2-3 pages in length) 3. Finally, design at least one new policy or program that will address a weakness you describe above. Explain how your policy or program will strengthen both internal and external procedural justice using relevant research. (1-2 pages in length) Your paper should fully address each of the items above, be typed in 12-point type, and use APA format to cite resources. Length requirement: 4-6 pages

Read the article “Criminal Profiling: Real Science or Just Wishful Thinking?” In the article, the author critically examines the highly suspect and sensational group of practices that can be collectively known as criminal profiling, and discusses whether they meet the two criteria for a science.

In a short, 200-300 word essay, briefly describe the two most common practices of criminal profiling, and what type of offender is usually the subject of those practices. Additionally, discuss the two criteria for a science, and whether the two practices of criminal profiling discussed in the article meet these criteria. Finally, according to Muller (2000), “When considering a subject such as criminal profiling, it is easy to get lost in the hype and difficult to distinguish the fact from the fiction” (p, 262). Compare some of “facts” about criminal profiling from the article with some of the “fiction” of criminal profiling as discussed in the video, “The Minds Behind Mindhunter (Criminal Profiling).”

Analyze the strengths and weaknesses of comparative criminal justice studies, based on your readings from module 7.

All sources must be cited using APA-style in-text citations and included on a References page in APA format.

Reference at least four sources from the assigned module readings. Outside sources are not required.

For clear, simple guidance on APA formatting see the

OWL Purdue site:

For this assignment, you will engage in original data collection by going into the community to gather public opinion data on a correctional-related topic of your choice. (topic is women in corrections) After selecting your topic, you must collect primary data through a short survey administered to a minimum of 20 people. You will then provide copies of surveys to confirm data collection. After collecting your data, you will analyze the results and compose a 9-10 page research report (excluding cover page, references, and appendices) summarizing your methodology, findings, and interpretation. This report should contextualize results around implications for correctional policy and practice. In addition to the final research report, you will be asked to create a digital narrated presentation that overviews the seminal findings from your data. In total, you will create whatever number of slides you feel adequately capture your data, then briefly narrate over top slides by explaining the material contained within them. Your presentations should not exceed 5 minutes in length
