For the student’s research paper, one will choose an infamous crime: serial<\/span><\/span>
murder, policy, or the law. Student subjects should be discussed with the professor<\/span><\/span>
before taking on the subject matter. The professor’s approval is to ensure the subject<\/span><\/span>
matter meets the requirements. For research grading criteria, see the Research Paper and<\/span><\/span>
Grading Rubric.<\/span><\/span>
Research Project Examples:<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Serial murder,<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Magen’s Law,<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Enhanced sentencing.<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Michael Brown incident,<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Freddie Gray incident,<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Phillip Pannell incident.<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Legalization of Marijuana and the unforeseen consequences.<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Other criminal justice or law enforcement matters.<\/span><\/span>
The research paper should be between 2000 to 2500 words. The research project<\/span><\/span>
must be done in<\/span><\/span> <\/span>APA style, either the sixth or seventh edition<\/span><\/span> <\/span>(<\/span><\/span>https:\/\/apastyle.apa.org\/)<\/span><\/span>,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

<\/span>with the appropriate headings. Title pages, abstracts, references, and appendages are not<\/span><\/span>
part of the page count. Additionally, students must have at least two book resources and<\/span><\/span>
two peer-reviewed journal articles, with professional journals having a preferred<\/span><\/span>
standing.<\/span><\/span>
If a student has chosen a criminal case or event, such as a murder or serial killer,<\/span><\/span>
it is suggested that the event be relatively short. Serial killers, such as BTK and the<\/span><\/span>
Green River Killer, have committed offenses over decades, requiring a more in-depth<\/span><\/span>
approach to the required research. A single case or event, quick intervention by law<\/span><\/span>
enforcement, modern offenders, or investigative procedures will provide substantial<\/span><\/span>
resources and an enhanced constructed research paper of this required duration.<\/span><\/span>
Furthermore, criminal offenders such as Susan Smith, Jodi Arias, and Larry Nassar are<\/span><\/span>
better suited for shorter papers.<\/span><\/span>
Students will discuss the history of the selection and biography; students will<\/span><\/span>
explain the policy and how it works or how the criminal justice system processed the<\/span><\/span>
individual. Additionally, students must determine if the criminal justice system handled<\/span><\/span>
the individual fairly, legally, and morally. Finally, if the student has chosen a policy or<\/span><\/span>
law, discuss its legality, whether it is fair or unfairly affects any person or class, and any<\/span><\/span>
historical references. Research projects are not to be opinion-based.<\/span><\/span>
Taboo research topics:<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Jeffrey Dahmer.<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>John F. Kennedy Assassination.<\/span><\/span>
\uf0b7<\/span><\/span> <\/span>Conspiracy theories are not backed soundly by scientific evaluation.<\/span><\/span>
