Part 1:
Throughout the semester, we have explored numerous ethical dilemmas that are unique to the field of criminal justice. In your opinion, what was the most difficult ethical dilemma that was discussed in a reading assignment or a discussion area? Now that you have completed this class, what would you do if you were faced with this dilemma? How would you go about addressing this dilemma? In drafting your response, take law, policy, and ethics into account. Walk us through your thought process. Be thorough.
Part 2:
A common approach to addressing ethical dilemmas involves the "front-page test." This is a quick ethics test that asks whether you would feel comfortable with your decision if your action was published on the front page of a newspaper. The thought behind this test is -- if you would not want your action to be publicized, there might be an ethical problem with your decision.
Taking into account your response to part 1 of this question -- would you be comfortable if you were to apply the "front page test" to your decision? Thoroughly explain your answer.
