Project 2 €“ Case Study OR Experiential Project: Due Week 5

Recognizing that our students are in different locations and have access to different resources, we offer you a choice between two projects below for submission. Read the instructions for both carefully before choosing.

Case Study Option: Focus on Ethics

From the textbook Focus on Ethics scenario:

6.1 It’s only marijuana

[Source: Fuller, J. R. (2010). Criminal justice: Mainstream and crosscurrents. Upper Saddle River, NJ: Prentice Hall.]

Each case presents an ethical dilemma. Describe the ethical issue fully, as well as the arguments both for and against your final course of action. What are the considerations? What are the potential long and short term consequences? Who benefits or is injured by the decision options? Using information from the textbook, the course conferences, and 2 outside resources, what course of action would you take?
