Position Analysis Paper: The Growth of Adult Corrections in the United States
Background: The growth of adult corrections in the United States is a critical issue for the correctional administrator as evidenced by a number of the readings in the first few weeks of this class. It is a perennial political policy issue for legislators, a difficult challenge for the executive branch of government, and a popular topic for the wide variety of news media available to the public today. Growth affects departmental policy, program opportunities and, most importantly, budget development. Although there are dramatic variations from state to state, there are clear trends that can be analyzed projecting future correctional growth. Even if no growth occurs in caseload, increases in the cost of inflation guarantees that the future budget will be larger than the current year appropriation.
Assignment: The objective of this assignment is to evaluate the history of U.S. prison correctional populations since 1980 and develop some conclusions regarding the probable impact of the trend you identify upon the U.S. correctional system. Use library resources to find at least three peer reviewed, refereed or academic journal articles (or other reference documents once this minimum requirement is achieved) relating to the growth of adult corrections in the United States during this critical time period. The paper must be a minimum of 5 complete pages of text. Please insure that you address the following issues in the essay:
1) Document the overall growth of adult correctional (prison) populations in the United States (keeping in mind that measurement is the key to this element).
2) Identify the measurement definitions and important measurement issues related to this trend. (For example, if the general population increases during that period by a specific percentage and the prison population grows by the same percentage, there is really no "real" growth associated with that trend. It should be a population growth that is anticipated and funded). Insure that you identify and discuss the term "incarceration rate" in your analysis and that it specifically a rate measuring the prison population. Do not include jails, parole and probation in this rate.
3)The identification of key factors associated with this growth pattern (what are the documented issues you can identify and cite that have fueled these changes).
4)The documented impact associated with this growth on correctional systems (notice this does not include generic sociological impacts).
5)The possible solutions to correctional population growth or the continuing efforts associated with the relief of growth tendencies.
6)The probable results of the correctional growth trend you have identified.

For this exercise we will concentrate on the Ethics and the Courts section of Case Studies in Criminal Justice Ethics. Because I cannot cover every case in the book, I will choose 4 cases to focus on, one case from each section. Below is your second application exercise assignment. Read the case I attached and answer the question.
CASE #10:
My Job is to Defend the Constitution, p. 68.
My Job is to Defend the Constitution.pdf
QUESTION
For this exercise, I ask you to focus only on Chapter 9-10: Consequentialism. In My Job is to Defend the Constitution a defense attorney has to decide if they should work zealously to defend their client (p. 46) or provide only adequate defense. If the defense attorney works zealously to defend the client, the client will likely be acquitted. If the defense attorney does just their job and no more, their client will likely be convicted. To learn more about the role of defense attorneys and zealous defense, visit https://www.americanbar.org/groups/criminal_justice/standards/DefenseFunctionFourthEdition/
Argue for or against each option by applying utilitarianism to the problem.
Consider the following as you write your response. Do not just answer these questions, use them to help you craft your responses:
What would revealing the information accomplish in the short term and long term? It could take months for an investigation into the lab to occur and in the meantime the lab will continue to operate. How might this affect other defendants? What effect might revealing the information accomplish if the client is acquitted? Would making the decision based on the clients character lead the defense attorney down a slippery slope? FORMAT
This assignment should be no more than 1-1.5 pages long, double spaced, 12 point font. You should not need more than 1 paragraph to explain each section. Do not copy material from the text. Everything should be in your own words - this helps me assess how well you understand the philosophy. Plagiarism will result in a 0.
Your submission should look like this:
Summary of Consequentialism (the category) & Utilitarianism (the specific philosophy):
Explain the focus of consequentialist philosophies. Explain utilitarianism and what makes an act right or good.
Zealous defense:
Explain zealous defense. Explain whether utilitarianism would support or reject providing zealous defense for the client. Consider this from both the act utilitarian (act in a way that maximizes good) and rule consequentialism (follow rules that benefit the majority) perspectives.
Adequate defense:
Explain the role of defense attorneys, and whether utilitarianism would support or reject providing only adequate defense for the client. Consider this from both the act utilitarian and rule consequentialism perspectives.

Stakeholder vs Shareholder theories have been an on-going debate. Many scandals in recent history such as Enron, WorldCom, Wells Fargo, and others, are often used as evidence that the shareholder theory encourages or at least opens the door for unethical decision-making. Stakeholder and shareholder theories are normative theories of social responsibility. Some business leaders argue there is very little if any difference to the two theories as both support social responsibility. Does shareholder theory encourage unethical business decisions? In what ways do the theories support social responsibility? How would one determine the stakeholder priority when making an ethical decision when competing needs of the stakeholders are apparent?

The following case illustrates how complicated custody decisions can be. Gina Ocon, a 21-year-old Harvard student, discovered that she was pregnant in October of her sophomore year of college. The problem was that Tommaso Maggiore, the father of her child, wanted Ocon to stay in California so he could be near his daughter; he filed for custody. The case went to trial, while Ocon went on welfare. Maggiore argued that he and his family could better care for the child, Bailey, in California. A court ruled in Ocon’s favor and gave Ocon sole custody. She moved her child to Massachusetts. Do you agree with the court’s decision? Why or why not? Cite case law to make your argument.
