BCC Crime Discussion

 

  • If we could predict, with 100% certainty, that someone is going to commit a violent act in the future (and let’s say there’s nothing rehabilitatively) that we could do about it, should we wait for that person to commit that crime before punishing? Or should the gov’t step in and preemptively incarcerate that person? Why or why not? If predictive sentencing is about protecting future victims why should we wait until that offender has committed a crime?
  • Return to the board and read over the posts of your fellow classmates. Choose at least one classmate and create a post responding to his/her initial post on the Discussion Board. Be thoughtful in your response, indicating your agreement/disagreement with their posting and give a careful reasoning of your position. Please note: in all of your postings/replies, you must demonstrate careful reasoning and logic to bolster your position. Unsubstantiated opinions have no place in this area.
