      \n

    2. If Jesse engaged in these behaviors because he had low self-control, <\/span>why <\/span><\/em>did he have such low self-control? What types of things could have been done to improve his self-control during childhood?<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n
    3. Find one piece of media covering true crime. Include a link to the story in your initial post.  You can can share a podcast, a news story, a documentary, etc. Specifically, the case must have detailed information about the offender’s personal history. \n
        \n
      1. Briefly summarize the details of the case in your own words.<\/li>\n
      2. Apply social learning theory to this example. Be specific, making clear connections between the theory and the offenses you describe.

      3. Your paper should be 1000-1500 words. Submit a double-spaced paper with 12 point font and one inch margins. No title page is required.
