Instructions
As specified in the Declaration of Independence, a just criminal justice system has limited power and upholds the unalienable rights of the citizenry.
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.–That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed- (US 1776)
To protect these God-given unalienable rights, the framers of the U.S. Constitution adopted the Bill of Rights. Thus, the heart of the Constitution strictly limits the federal government′s power to those entrusted to it. You will analyze a case or incident that depicts a constitutional violation for this assignment. Complete the following instructions.
First, choose ONE of the following cases or incidents (A, B, or C) to discuss. Links located under Application Essay: Limited Governmental Powers Assignment Resources.
