Depriving defendants of due process of law


Assignment:

Chicago adopted an antiloitering ordinance intended to curb the “expanding cancer” of urban gangs. Under the ordinance, people loitering (standing) in a public place could be ordered to move along if a police officer believed one or more was a gang member. Those who refused to move along could be arrested and sent to jail for up to six months, fined $500, and ordered to perform three weeks of public service—even without proof of criminal intent. Does the ordinance as applied deprive defendants of due process of law?

Your answer must be typed, double-spaced, Times New Roman font (size 12), one-inch margins on all sides, APA format and also include references.
