Court/ Jail Time

1) In the courtroom for the double murder trial the prosecutor asked a lot of question to the man on the stand. The man on the stand was there that day we worked with the evidence team. The prosecutor was repeating a  lot of question to make sure he was telling it right. The whole room seemed really tense when the stared the slid show of the victims.
2) This was a criminal crime
3)Felony
4) The accused race was Caucasian
5)Control Theory because the accused has an absence of morals and doesn't believe that someone has control over them.
  Jail
1)The jail system is just a holding place until they accused has a trial date then the go to prison. You first get searched then asked if you have any problem, photo, new uniform, and then your cell.
2) The majority of the people here were of the Hispanic and Caucasian race
3)Rehabilitation because they are trying to help them and show that you don't want to end up here but most of them come back.
4)Differential Association because most of the people in jail are not first timers
5) Jail is a better way to prevent deviance in society
6) When we passed by were in inmates were in gym it was really intimidating and scary. The cells looked super small and it felt like we were at a zoo watching them. I felt bad because I saw a lot of young people there. Its horrible.
