In this week’s Online Lecture, you reviewed the concepts of the “due process” and “crime control” models of Criminal Justice. The material from that lesson applies to this assignment.
Explain which model has produced the best results in terms of reducing crime. Select two changes that were instigated by the government, and two changes that were caused by general society and show how each of these changes helped move the country from the “due process” model to the “crime control” model. Discuss whether each of these selected changes seems likely to have an impact on crime rates.
