CJ 315 Southern New Hampshire University Aileen Wuornos Case Discussion
I’m working on a criminal justice question and need a sample draft to help me understand better.
For this discussion, you will share a criminal case in which the media influenced empathy. There are several ways in which the media can influence empathy in a case: pretrial publicity, judicial remedies (such as change of venue), cameras in the courtroom, or extensive coverage of a high-profile case. In addition, it’s important to keep in mind that social media can impact those involved in a criminal case.
Choose a criminal case in which the media influenced empathy. It can be a high-profile case (6 Intriguingly Famous Court Cases That Captivated the Nation) or a local case in the area in which you live.
In your initial post, describe the case or provide quality resources that explain the case. Include the following in your description:
- Explain how the media influenced empathy in the case.
- How was media used in the case?
- In your opinion, who was affected by the media?
- Do you think the media and its influence on empathy changed the case outcome?
