1.Capstone Case: Montana v. EgelhoffIn July 1992, while camping out in the Yaak region of northwestern Montana, Respondent Egelhoff made friends with Roberta Pavola and John Christenson. On Sunday, July 12, the three spent much of the day and evening drinking, in bars and at a private party. At about midnight that night, officers of the Lincoln County, Montana, sheriff’s department, responding to reports of a possible drunk driver, discovered Christenson’s station wagon stuck in a ditch along U.S. Highway 2. In the front seat were Pavola and Christenson, each dead from a single gunshot to the head. In the rear of the car lay Egelhoff, alive and yelling obscenities. His blood-alcohol content measured .36 percent over one hour later. After being charged with two counts of homicide, Engelhoff attempted to assert an intoxication defense, but this was denied by the trial court.How does a claim that (a) an intoxicated defendant should not be held responsible for his or her criminal activity because of the inability to form the requisite mens rea for a specific crime differ from the claim that (b) an intoxicated defendant should be excused because he or she had lowered inhibitions and impaired judgment as a consequence of ingesting alcohol? Do both claims carry the same moral weight?Do you believe that, as a matter of fundamental due process rights, a defendant should be given the opportunity to present “all relevant evidence to rebut the State’s evidence on all elements of the offense charged”? Why or why not?Minimum word count of 600, not including references. Cite references in APA format. include intext refernces.2.Read the Court’s opinion in Carter v. State, 710 So. 2d 110 (Fla. App. 1998). Based on this opinion, explain why involuntary intoxication is treated differently from voluntary intoxication as a criminal defense.Minimum word count of 500, not including references. Cite references in APA format. include intext refernces.3.Capstone Case: Commonwealth v. SchnoppsOn October 13, 1979, Marilyn R. Schnopps was fatally shot by her estranged husband George A. Schnopps. A jury convicted Schnopps of murder in the first degree, and he was sentenced to the mandatory term of life imprisonment. Schnopps claims that the trial judge erred by refusing to instruct the jury on voluntary manslaughter. Schnopps claimed that he was provoked into killing his wife after learning of her marital infidelity.Were the wife’s comments so shocking as to be tantamount to the defendant’s actually catching her in an adulterous act with her lover?What are the implications of extending the provocation doctrine in infidelity cases from actually witnessing a spouse committing adultery to learning about it verbally?Minimum word count of 500, not including references. Cite references in APA format. include intext refernces.4.Read the two other “provocation” cases in your textbook—People v. McCarthy, 547 N. E. 2d 459 (Ill. 1989) and Girouard v. State, 583 A. 2d 718 (Md. App. 1991)—where defendants asserted victim provocation as mitigation against homicide charges. What conditions or circumstances do the courts identify as being adequate enough to constitute possible reduced charges in homicide cases?Minimum word count of 500, not including references. Cite references in APA format. include intext refernces.

The purpose of this annotated bibliography is to identify resources for and to develop a deeper understanding of the tenets of organizational management, supervision, and the professional development of staff. Annotations inform the reader of the material and information provided along with the relevance, accuracy, and quality of the sources cited. Your Assignment will be 3–4 pages in length and will include a 1-paragraph introductory synopsis along with a list of the research resources you used to serve as the preface to the annotated bibliography. Your annotated bibliography will include a list of citations to books, articles, and documents (the bibliography). Each citation will be followed by a brief descriptive and evaluative paragraph (the annotation), which provides a review of the literature on a particular subject. An annotated bibliography is not the same thing as a bibliography or an abstract. An annotation is descriptive and critical whereas as abstract does not include a critical evaluation of the writing or study.Your annotated bibliography will consist of six references from at least four peer-reviewed journal articles, one credible website, and Chapter 9 of your text, Developing Nonprofit and Human Service Leaders.Your references will be in alphabetical order with each entry properly APA formatted and each annotation about 1 paragraph (4–10 sentences) in length. The Assignment should be 3–5 pages in length.In this annotation, you will briefly describe the resource. If available, you could provide a descriptive annotation that evaluates the success or reliability of the book. You might also compare or contrast the source with another source on the topic. Determine if the author has a bias or makes assumptions. List any biases. You could describe the author's conclusion and whether or not there are significant attachments or appendices such as charts, maps, bibliographies, photographs, documents, tests or questionnaires. You could also explain how this work is useful. You could also compare or contrast this work with another (or others) cited. Is the work, its data, or its view out-of-date, yet a valid historical reference? Describe your reaction to the item. Use technical writing format: not "I" or "my." You will need four more entries after this one.
