Disparities & Discrimination in Criminal Justice
Number of pages:
4
ABSTRACT:
A 4 page research paper that discusses the relationship between disparities between statistics pertaining to criminal justice and discrimination. The writer argues that a disparity between ethnic groups that is disproportionate to the percentage that the group holds within the overall population is highly suggestive of discriminatory practice on the part of the criminal justice system. Examination of empirical research, both having to do with the trial system and police procedures, indicates that this is, indeed, the case and discrimination does exist in the American justice system, despite the numerous laws prohibiting such practices. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
