You are to write "one" paper containing "three essays" - one law enforcement, one courts and one corrections.

An essay is a short work that treats a topic from an author's personal point of view, often taking into account subjective experiences and personal reflections upon them.

In one part of the paper, you must report and reflect on an interview with a professional; in another you must observe an agency in action and report and reflect on the observation (a case in a courtroom, probation and parole clients reporting to their officer, ride alone in a police car), and in the third you must watch a movie and relate its contents to the course. The order of the interview, observation, or movie doesn't matter.

Each part of the paper should be two to three, computer-generated pages written in American Psychological Style (APA). Use six sources for each essay, and they should tie their topic to the text.

An essay is a well-structured (i.e., organized) presentation of your ideas about what you have read, observed, heard, and seen. It is presented in a way that is easy to follow and understand.

An essay can have many purposes, but the basic structure is the same no matter what. You may be writing an essay to argue for a particular point of view or to explain the steps necessary to complete a task.

I will accept essays based on aYouTube video, television show, or movie involving law enforcement, courts and/or corrections.

You MUST have 3 essays and you MUST use outside sources as well. I want all 3 essays on 1 word document with each essay separated by a sub-heading. Each essay does not need to flow into the next, but there MUST be one title and one reference page for all 3 essays. I do not want wikpedia and or opinion based websites to be used a source. Additionally, the direction of your essay whether it be a movie, show, interview or ride along, must be based on a concept covered in the text relating to law enforcement, courts and corrections.

You may use the following movies/shows:

MSNBC's weekly show "Lock-Up"

The following court YouTube Clips:

Bush v. Schiavo (2004) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GEajn-FLm3A&feature=related

Below are suggestions for several movies for the essays. The movie you include in your essay should be based on a true story and/or based on true events. I do not want to see any Law and Order summaries. I have provided you eight movies that highly recommend below. If there is another movie you are interested in writing about send me the title and a brief summary of the movie so that I may approve it. Otherwise, I would expect for you to utilize one of the movies listed below or videos and shows listed above.

Reversal of Fortune (1990) is a terrific movie about a real case, it is based on Harvard Law Professor Alan Dershowitz's account of his successful attempt to reverse the attempted murder conviction of Claus von Bulow. Very few movies are made about appellate courts, and even fewer are good: this one is both. The scenes depicting Dershowitz's trial strategy, interviews with witnesses, and handling of various events in his personal life give us a look into the life of the lawyer handling a high-profile case. The actors, including Jeremy Irons as von Bulow, Ron Silver as Dershowitz and Glenn Close as Sunny von Bulow, are all excellent. The only bizarre note is Close's narration, which since her character is in an irreversible coma, is slightly jarring.

To Kill a Mockingbird (1962), brought moviegoers Harper Lee's famous novel and gave the heroic and now iconic lawyer Atticus Finch Gregory Peck's face. This film, set in the pre civil rights era South, tells a story that was all too often true not just in the South but elsewhere in the country--the trial of a black man for a crime that he didn't commit, simply on the basis of his race. The wonderful Brock Peters plays the bewildered but resigned defendant, Robert Duvall, Estelle Evans, Paul Fix and Frank Overton among others, are all terrific as characters caught in a life-changing script they cannot control. Peck's Atticus Finch tries desperately to sort out his duty to his profession and his personal beliefs.

Anatomy of a Murder (1959). This movie, based on the fact based novel of the same name by "Robert Traver" (pseudonym of Michigan Supreme Court Justice John Jackson) combines wonderfully written and acted scenes of legal ethics, trial strategy, and courtroom drama with serious questions about the nature of justice and the purpose of the adversarial legal system. Jimmy Stewart is superb as the inventive defense attorney Paul Biegler, trying the biggest case of his career. Eve Arden is priceless as Biegler's ever competent, even-tempered secretary. A young Ben Gazzara projects mystery as the defendant Frederick Manion, accused of killing his wife's attacker in cold blood. In her first starring role, Lee Remick is appropriately alluring and innocent as Mrs. Manion. George C. Scott as the "imported legal talent from Lansing", Arthur O'Connell as Biegler's partner, and Kathryn Grant (Mrs. Bing Crosby) as the bewildered manager of the dead man's bar and hotel are all perfectl y cast. Even Joseph N. Welch, the attorney famous for facing down Senator Joseph McCarthy, does a creditable if somewhat wooden job as the judge. Trivia: Roy Cohn, a featured player during the McCarthy hearings, is the subject of the docudrama Citizen Cohn (1992)--James Woods plays Cohn. Otto Preminger, the director of Anatomy of a Murder, was himself an attorney in his native Austria and once in the U.S. went to court several times to protect the integrity of his work. Fittingly, the source of Biegler's clever defense is a real case, People v. Durfee, 62 Mich. 487 (1886), although the scriptwriters got the page wrong (they have Biegler citing it as starting on page 486).

Judge Horton and the Scottsboro Boys.Directed by Fielder Cook. This is a shocking true story of nine black men who were wrongfully accused of raping two promiscuous white women. They were framed, railroaded through a prejudicial legal system and imprisoned.

In Cold Blood (1967). Two young men are ineffectual individually, but when together become violent criminals. They break into a wealthy farmer's home only to find that there is nearly no money at the home and murder the entire family to avoid identification. The first part of the film details the search for them, the second, their trial and execution. Taken from the actual events chronicled by Truman Capote in his book. Truman Capote wrote the 'non-fiction novel' from which the film is drawn, using the novelist's craft to render reality. The reality was that at two a.m. on November 15, 1959 in the rural town of Holcomb, Kansas, the four members of the Clutter family were roused from their sleep, bound and gagged, and then brutally murdered by two unknown assailants. After the latters' capture, sentencing and imprisonment prior to execution, Capote researched the case thoroughly, spent weeks talking with the prisoners, Perry Smith and Richard Hickock, jurors, police, friends and neighbors, trying to unearth why such a senseless act was committed, and what society's response might have been.

Gideon's Trumpet (1980), True story of Clarence Gideon's fight to be appointed counsel at the expense of the state. This landmark case (Gideon v. Wainwright) led to the Supreme Court's decision, which extended this right to all criminal defendants.

Brubaker(1980). When the new Warden comes in disguised as an inmate, he sees first hand all the corruption and scams the guards and prison officials and running. When he reveals himself, and starts to implement reforms to stop the corruption, the local community business, who had been benefiting from the scams, fights back, and the corrupt southern prison system, starts making political trouble for the new warden. Henry Brubaker is the new warden at Wakefield prison. He makes his entrance as a prisoner in order to get a convict's-eye-view of the real state of the institution. To his horror he finds all manner of abuse and corruption which, after disclosing his real identity, he sets out to correct.

Against the Wall (1994). A gritty, dramatic retelling of one of the most violent prison rebellions in U.S. history, this made-for-cable film tells the story of the inmate takeover of Attica from the point of view of two prisoners and the facility's young warden. This HBO telefilm takes its inspiration from a real-life event -- the notorious takeover of New York's Attica State Prison by inmates angry at their poor treatment. After authorities ignore constant complaints by the prisoners, two convicts incite a riot to protest the terrible conditions in the Attica correctional facility. Soon guards have become hostages, and the entire world is waiting for a resolution. But the situation only grows more and more tense and violent.
