Assignment:
Select a policy from the list of examples found of Criminal Justice Policy in Table "Examples of Federal Criminal Justice Policies" (Mallicoat, 2014). In this discussion, you will evaluate your selected criminal justice policy by using one of the models (i.e., Packer's, Feeley's, or Cox and Wade's) discussed of The Public Policy of Crime and Criminal Justice (Marion & Oliver, 2012).
Initial Post: After selecting one of the criminal justice policies as identified by Mallicoat, evaluate it based on one of the models identified in The Public Policy of Crime and Criminal Justice, and explain your conclusions based on your evaluation of the current criminal justice system. In your examination of the policy process, determine if the policy under review is symbolic or substantive. Finally, determine the major goal and secondary goal of the policy based on Box 2.1 "Major Goals of the Criminal Justice System," in The Public Policy of Crime and Criminal Justice (Marion & Oliver, 2012). Support your claims with examples from the required materials and/or other scholarly sources, and properly cite your references with both in-text and APA citations at the end of your post.
