POL 340 New Criminal Justice Policy Final Project
Scenario 1: Your jurisdiction has decided to institute a new criminal justice policy. Under the new policy, people stopped and found in possession of 25 grams or less of marijuana (a violation under our law) will no longer be cited or arrested. Experts put the value of that amount of marijuana at approximately $300. The new policy covers only marijuana that appears to be for “personal use,” rather than for sale. Anyone caught smoking marijuana in public will still be subject to arrest regardless of the amount
.Choose one (1) scenario that you wish to base your final project. Using the Seven-Stage Checklist for Program/Policy Planning and Analysis in the Appendix of our textbook, create a new program or policy plan based on your chosen scenario. Use the Checklist as your guide, for example, stage one, Analyzing the Problem, document the need for change and describe the history of the problem, as you work through the checklist.
