A policy of racial profiling by police officers to reduce and prevent crime on the streets

Feel free to write about a policy for racial profiling in your own feelings and views, but ensure you back any data up with peer reviewed sources.

The papers should have a brief introduction, appropriate transitions between topic areas, and a short conclusion. I am interested in each student’s ability to craft an organized approach to an ethical issue in criminal justice. Synthesize the literature on the subject and critically assess the ethical issue.

Substance: Each student should be able to craft a well-reasoned ethical argument. Since we will be addressing “hot” topics of current debate, emotions will run high. However, try to support your argument with more than just emotion. Where appropriate, essays should draw from course readings, lectures, and discussions particular to the subject matter.

References: Consult at least five (5) outside peer reviewed sources to complete this assignment (the course readings do not count). Consider the five-source requirement as establishing the baseline; students seeking higher grades are advised to broaden their research.
