Important: You must submit a one page paper or more on your topic that has a title page, a separate reference page, and contains cited and referenced facts about your topic.

Format for Topic Selection

Keep to third person in academic papers - do not use "I" or "we".

Example of an ethical decision situation:

For Example, a judge might have to release a serious felon based upon technicalities that have arisen in a court case. Although the judge knows this person is guilty based upon impeccable evidence, the law dictates the judge must dismiss the case. What should the judge do?

Override the system and invoke their power as a judge to continue the trial? Release the person? These dilemmas arise regularly in police agencies, courts and prisons.

2. Include a annotated bibliography on the topic you chose above with seven (7) at least valid sources that you will use as the basis for your paper.
