Crimes Affecting the Judicial System

Some crimes and their subsequent trials have had a lasting impact on the judicial system. Some of these have led to preventative measures to ensure that those types of crimes can be prevented to a degree, while others have led to the enactment of laws based on the nature of crime committed in these cases. Some examples of such cases include, but are not limited to: Marsalee "Marsy" Nicholas—Marsy's Law. Adam Walsh—Adam Walsh Child Protection and Safety Act. Amber Hagerman—The Amber Alert. Tasks: Locate the cases related to any one of these people on the ITT Tech Virtual Library. Provide a description of the case, including a summary of the offense. Provide a discussion of how this case has impacted the judicial system. Do you feel the resulting law or act has had the desired affect? Provide a supporting rationale. Submission Requirements: Submit your responses in a one- to two-page Word document. Use 12-point Arial font and double spacing. Cite references from the textbook, the ITT Tech Virtual Library, or credible Web sites to substantiate your answers. Cite references in proper APA format.
