Senior Seminar in Criminal Justice

INSTRUCTIONS:

It is never too early to start campaigning for a public office and you have your eye on running for District Attorney in Owl County’s next election. As you are aware, the City of Owltown, the county seat, has some serious crime problems that need to be addressed. Your purpose today is to develop your platform and outline in specifics all the ways that you are going to address crime in the city.The election will be tight and the only way to garner enough votes to beat the challenger, Chris P. Bacon, is to demonstrate to the city residents that you will focus on effective ways to address crime. This morning you have been given a last minute opportunity to present your platform to a room full of the city’s harshest criminal justice critics and council members. Beware, they may call you out if your platform contradicts best practices or fails to address realistic crime issues. Summarize your platform. That is, what will you, as Owl County's District Attorney, do to address the crime problems that plague the City of Owltown. Remember that the District Attorney is an official that serves all of Owl County, not just Owltown.
