Running head: CRIMINAL JUSTICE ETHICS Criminal Justice Ethics Faisal Alruwaily Lynn University 1 CRIMINAL JUSTICE ETHIS 2 Criminal Justice Issues Involving the Minors The issue of criminal Justice cases which involve the minors have been a topic of discussion in various platforms in the recent past. In the recent years the young people have been found to be involved in quite a number of criminal activities, handling minors is sometimes quite challenging to the criminal and justice departments since in some occasions they are favored by law and the society (Gilfoyle, N., & Dvoskin, J. A. 2017). This increase in this group being found on the wrong side has attracted a lot of discussion and at some point there has been several questions that have been asked like what is really making it so easy for the minors to get involved into criminal activities (Jacobs & Jackson, 2016). There are several reasons that are motivating these young people to get involved in to activities that are considered criminal. The first motivation is on the ready access into the internet and information found in the. internet, there some information that are actually some information passed that in the social media platform are so incite Fula and since this group are not very good at decision making, the end up falling into the legal boundaries (Roberts, J. 2018).

POLICE USE OF LETHAL FORCE

Introduction
One character that well defines the police is their ability to be authoritative and use force
in the process of ensuring that the law is adhered with. The police are in situations where they
are authorized to use power while discharging their duties. Although the force is applied, there
are various levels upon which the force can be applied. The cases of using lethal force have been
seen and witnessed in different parts of the world. For example, the lethal force that was used in
the killing of Michael Brown who was shot six times and Kajiame Powel who was shot nine
times. The police officer by the name Darren Wilson was responsible for Michael Brown's death.
Even though the actual reason for Michael Brown death remains unknown, it can be purported
that Wilson used lethal power to kill him due to his color difference. When deadly force is
applied, different factors should be put into consideration. The department of justice should keep
the active rule to protect human rights.

Background information
Every year, the police kill many peoples. The actual number of men and women who get
shot and killed is not precisely known since the counting of the lost lives is not done. Limited to
the available information, the suggestions are that the African American people adversely
impacted by the use of lethal force by the police (Terrill, 2017). The African American who got
killed and unnamed are the men.
On the other hand, women suffer, and their lives are lost from police violence. The sole
requirement for the police is the protection of the people’s lives and upholding of the law. In
most cases, police work is challenging and prone dangers. However, the shouting of peoples like
Michael Brown and some other cohorts across the nation has led to widespread racial

discrimination of the African American by the officers enforcing the law leading to the use of
lethal force by the police throughout the country.
A serious concern to the human right has evoked due to the use of lethal force by most
officers enforcing the law. The criminal justice policy must protect the lives of the people and
fulfill all human rights. In most of the cases, it becomes difficult to enforce the law using force.
Lethal force usage can only be allowed for the officer as the last option by the international law.
In criminal justice policy, the fundamental principle on using force and firearms stipulate that the
officer shall not, in any case, used the guns against people unless in self-defense and the defense
of the members of the society from serious injuries (Alpert, 2016).
In addressing the law enforcement, the criminal justice policy has not addressed the issue
of police using lethal force appropriately. The international law requires that lethal force can
only be used in a situation where no some other available means can achieve the target objective.
Where the force is unavoidable, it must be within a proportionate bracket to achieve the set goal.
Any of the laws being enforced, it must be done in such a way that the damage and the injuries
are kept at a minimum level. The law must be entitled to preserve all the human rights and
ensure that any injuries that happen are attended within the shortest time possible.

Statement of the problem
Lethal force usage by many police has become an issue in the public domain since the
year 1960s. As a result of using this kind of force, the civil riot as a result of being precipitated

killing. The police practitioners and the officers enforcing the laws have made essential reforms
in practice of the policies.
The establishment of a working legal structure for using force by the police is the initial
step in protecting human right. When such a framework is set out, a full response is assured by
the officers enforcing the law. In all situations, both the national as well as the local laws
contribute in determining the way law enforcement will be conducted rights (Terrill, 2011). The
establishment of domestic laws and ensuring that such law is in line with the international
standard become a vital element to protect humanity.
In the wake of the current police killing using lethal force, many nations have been
protesting in demand for responsibility and accountability by the officer of the law. In all the
circumstances where the police use firearms and lethal force, the action must be subjected to a
transparent and impartial way of investigation (Walker, 2016). The police officer responsible for
the use of lethal force should be prosecuted when the evidence shows that the killing was made
unlawfully. The criminal justice policy is lacking with police severely using lethal force.
Most of the death that occurs at policemen’s hand is as a result of firearm use by the
officers enforcing the law (Cano, 2015)...
