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?
