The document discusses the implications of Colorado passing legislation legalizing recreational marijuana use, while it remains illegal under federal law. It summarizes key aspects of the new state law and outlines various federal acts that colleges must still abide by, such as notifying students of drug laws and risks. The document recommends that higher education institutions in Colorado develop a commission to help create unified policies and educate students on how marijuana remains prohibited under federal financial aid rules.
The Touro Law Center’s Work to Break the “School-to-Prison” Pipeline Nicholas Fortuna
Nicholas Fortuna is a managing partner at a law firm with 25 years of experience in complex litigation. He attended Touro Law Center, which has a program called the William Randolph Hearst Public Advocacy Center that connects law students with local nonprofits to work on pressing community issues. One such program is the Center for Restorative Practices, which aims to address the "school-to-prison pipeline" where minority students face criminalization and incarceration for minor infractions at disproportionate rates compared to white students. The Center provides advocacy and legal services to the minority juvenile community to seek alternatives to incarceration and expulsion.
The document summarizes the College Station Police Department's 2019 Annual Traffic Contact Report. It discusses the requirements of the Texas Racial Profiling Law, how the department has met those requirements through policies, training, data collection and analysis. It finds that most traffic stops were for white males but that black and Hispanic drivers had more contacts relative to their representation in the local population. Most searches did not yield contraband. Overall, the analysis found the department in compliance with racial profiling laws.
FBI agents investigate federal crimes such as car theft, kidnapping, and bank robbery. They work long hours, often more than 40 hours per week. To become an agent, one must have a bachelor's degree in fields like criminal justice or biology, be between 23-37 years old, be a US citizen, pass a background check, and be in top physical shape. Salaries for agents range from $46,030 to $81,340 per year and they receive benefits like paid time off and health insurance. The federal government is the primary employer of FBI agents.
The College Station Police Department 2020 Annual Traffic Contact Report summarizes the department's compliance with racial profiling laws and analysis of traffic stop data from 2020. The report details new requirements from the Sandra Bland Act, including enhanced data collection and analysis. An independent analysis found that while most stops were of whites, the percentage of black and Hispanic stops exceeded their representation in the population. However, most searches did not yield contraband. Overall, the analysis found the department in compliance with racial profiling laws.
This session included information on the collaborative work being done between The Royal’s Sexual Behaviours Clinic (SBC) and Ottawa Police Service’s High Risk Offender Unit (HROU). Dr. Paul Fedoroff was the moderator and began the presentations with an overview of innovative work being done within the SBC and the common goals of the Clinic and the HROU. Staff Sargent Dana Reynolds and Det. Mark Horton discussed the role of their team in the community based management of high risk sexual offenders. More specifically they discussed the role of the Unit and common legal designations utilized for high risk sexual offenders. Lisa Murphy, M.C.A. provided an overview of sex offender registries (SORs) and public notification and made comparisons between the approaches used in Canada and the United States. A discussion period followed the panel presentations.
Registering Harm - How sex offense registries fail youth and communitiessoissues
The document summarizes issues with sex offense registries and the Adam Walsh Act (AWA). It discusses:
1) The history and origins of sex offense registries in the 1990s in response to media coverage, despite falling crime rates.
2) Key provisions and requirements of laws like the Wetterling Act, Megan's Law, and the AWA, including expanding registries to include juveniles and retroactivity.
3) Issues with the AWA including overburdening state budgets, placing unnecessary burdens on law enforcement, targeting juveniles and families, undermining rehabilitation, creating a false sense of security, and compromising community safety.

The document provides an overview of training for Campus Security Authorities (CSAs) on their responsibilities under the Clery Act, including requirements to report crimes to their university's police department in a timely manner so the university can comply with Clery Act mandates such as publishing annual security reports with crime statistics. CSAs are defined as university employees who have significant contact with students or responsibility for campus activities and programs.
The document discusses criminal background check requirements for prospective foster parents in the United States. It notes that while background checks are required in all states, the criteria that would bar someone from becoming a foster parent varies greatly between states. Specifically, the document examines differences in what convictions would disqualify someone, how states define an adult for background check purposes, and whether agency discretion plays a role. The goal of the research is to analyze these differences and identify best practices that are both strict and fair.
The document discusses the BBFC 18 rating classification for films and videos. An 18 rating allows for material that could be in breach of criminal law and excessively violent content, including portrayals of sexualized violence. Exceptions may be made for content that risks harming individuals or society, such as detailed depictions of violent or dangerous acts, illegal drug use, or sexual/sexualized violence that could eroticize or endorse assault. Explicit images of sexual activity may also warrant exceptions if they cannot be justified by context.
The document cautions against ranking jurisdictions based solely on crime statistics, as crime is influenced by many variables not captured in the data, including demographic factors, economic conditions, law enforcement practices, and citizen attitudes. To make valid assessments of crime, careful study of the unique conditions in each jurisdiction is required. While population size is included in the report, the data alone cannot be used to compare jurisdictions without considering other key crime influencing variables specific to each locale.
The document discusses different types of data that states collect related to safe and drug-free schools, including truancy rates, incidents of violence and drug-related offenses, types of prevention programs and services provided, and student perceptions and behaviors related to drug use and violence. It notes challenges in collecting uniform and comparable data across schools and districts due to varying definitions and methods of data collection. Tennessee specifically collects data on suspensions, expulsions, victims of violence, and surveys of youth risk behaviors.

This document outlines the background check requirements and processes for child care providers in South Carolina. It discusses that fingerprint-based criminal background checks through IdentoGo as well as central registry and sex offender registry checks are required for all staff and registered family members prior to employment. Checks are generally completed within 24-48 hours. The document also proposes a new credential under ABC Quality that would still require full background checks and training but may exempt some physical site requirements to increase access to child care, particularly in rural areas.
