Professional Development Collection: Criminal Justice

Alabama's Criminal Justice System is a compilation of original chapters by experts in the Alabama justice system. It presents a brief history of the state's criminal justice organization and procedures, as well as its law enforcement and correctional bodies. The authors discuss many federal and Supreme Court cases originating from conditions in Alabama that impinged upon the rights of its citizens and led to a standard practice of repression in the procedures of law enforcement, courts, and corrections. In addition to these topics, special attention is given to the juvenile justice system and victims' rights. PowerPoint slides are available to professors upon adoption of this book.
