2. Why is ethics so important in criminal justice research? What could happen if a researcher was not ethical?

3. What effect does the media have on crime? Can this be controlled; why or why not? If it can be controlled, how do we accomplish that?

BOTTOM POST:

  I personally have not been a victim of a crime, but I do know of a few individuals who were victims of crimes. It’s unfortunate, but those individuals were murdered. I can’t say what the cost was but I’m sure the family was not prepared for unexpected funeral expenses. I do believe there was some type of financial compensation for their loss through a state-run victim compensation program.

Ethics plays a very crucial role in determining the moral and logical decisions in criminal justice research. Ethics provides the moral guidelines for the justice system and ensures the right decisions are made to serve justice to the affected people while preserving the civil rights of the parties involved. Through ethics, the accused and the victims are served with a balanced application of justice and fairness. Furthermore, ethics ensure that everyone acts in compliance with the law. For example, ethics allows the judge to understand when one is remorseful to get a more lenient punishment or impose a severe sentence when the accused has a criminal record of repeating the same offenses. Learning to report illegal activity in the locality for the benefit of the people in the community is part of ethics.

              If a researcher is not ethical, they can be held accountable to the public. It also compromises the truth, avoidance of errors, and knowledge. This makes the research work irrelevant if the researcher cannot be rendered trustworthy. Additionally, a lack of ethics might cause the researcher to contradict patenting policies.

            The media is becoming more prominent in crime prevention today. The media also facilitates the participation of people, globalization of culture, and the creation of public order and safety, making it easier to address security issues. However, the media can share critical information that criminals use to further commit crimes. Sometimes the media can make a situation worse by competing to get information out first. This can be controlled by filtering what is shared on the media to reduce getting information to criminals encouraging the growth of criminal activities.
