Assignment 3- Due 07/14/17 11:00am

Turn in a written response of a minimum 250 words for each item below.  Be sure to fully address all the implications of each item.  Although some level of personal commitment to your response is expected, try to avoid excessive use of “I feel…” or “I think…” statements.  Attempt to imagine you are writing for a broader group of people; i.e., not just what you would do, but what all of mankind should do.  The rubric for grading responses is the REOS method, where R stands for Reasoning (your logic should tie together), E stands for Evidence (Your arguments which need support should be supported by mentioning the name of someone usually cited), O stands for Observation (your unique contributions, if any), and S stands for Substance (you say something meaningful and significant, in the instructor’s opinion).  ON YOUR PAPER PUT:  R, then write this answer. Under the R put an E, then write this answer.  Under the E, put the O, then write this answer and under the O put the S, then write this answer.  Please do the assignment in this format.

Title, Abstract, Reference, then the body of the paper needs to look like:

R:  Answer

E:  Answer

O:  Answer

S:  Answer

1.  Should a criminal justice employee (whether police, courts, or corrections—and does it make a difference?) be sanctioned for behavior which is only looked down upon if a regular citizen did it?  For example, engaging in extramarital affairs, drinking to excess, having a gambling problem, psychological (light) abuse of spouse, being active in a political party, and/or if female, posing seductively in a men’s magazine.
