Current problem or issue in the U.S. Criminal Justice System.

Locate a current problem or issue in the U.S. Criminal Justice System.
Using pages 11-17 in the book Write and Wrong as a guide, write a Problem Statement.
The length of the statement should be similar to the sample statement on page 17, which is about a 1/2 page single-spaced or 1 page double-spaced. the purpose of the capstone research paper is to provide the reader with a synopsis of a problem or critical issue in US crime control/criminal justice, what we know about the pre-existing policies that are causing or contributing to one of the problems or issues, and what alternative policy options are viable options.
you need to locate, understand, and be able to articulate a problem, of which there are many, sadly.
For a stronger problem statement, it is beneficial to include concrete information or statistics that illustrate the severity of the problem.
