Abstracts are not needed. All work must be double-spaced and typed using Times New Roman 12 point font. You must use at least two credible sources, which should be referenced in their writing. Please note: Wikipedia, Course Hero, LegalBeagal.com are NOT credible sources. You should use academic research, peer-reviewed journal articles, or governmental websites to conduct research. News articles should be kept to a minimum, as we know, reporting of matters in criminal justice could be inaccurate when reported by the media. Using sources that are listed above and not deemed credible will result in a loss of points. **For this first assignment, you will also be required to upload a copy of your Grammarly report. I will post full details on how to do this in the comments. You should have two attachments to this assignment. One will be the Word document (your assignment), the other will be the PDF of your Grammarly report.** The Grammarly report is worth 10 points, making the total point value of this assignment 60 points.
