1. Assignment 4: Inmates Rights and Special Circumstances
Due Week 10 and worth 200 points
According to the preamble to the U.S. Constitution, one (1) of
the founding philosophies of the United States is that each
person, citizen or not, is endowed with certain permanent rights.
This philosophy extends even to people who have committed
crimes that warrant prison sentences. Imagine that you are a
commissioner on the Board of State Prison, and you are
responsible for making recommendations regarding inmate
rights and special circumstances. Use the Internet or Strayer
University library (
https://research.strayer.edu
) to research costs that an inmate could incur if he or she
chooses to challenge his or her confinement.
Write a 3-to 5-page paper in which you:
Analyze the legal mechanisms in which an inmate can challenge
his or her confinement. Support or refute the cost of such
challenges to the state and / or federal government. Provide a
rationale for your response.
Analyze the grievance process from a state of your choice that
inmates must follow while incarcerated. Critique the grievance
process and whether it is enough to protect inmates’ rights
while incarcerated. Provide a rationale for your response.
Examine the five largest groups of inmates with special needs
that are discussed in your textbook. Prepare one
recommendation for each group that management can use to
2. meet the needs of the special need inmate. Provide a rationale
for your response.
Determine whether the use of the death penalty violates
offenders’ rights against “cruel and unusual punishment,” as
guaranteed by the Eighth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution.
Justify your response.
Use at least three quality references.
