Inquires that were brought up in class with my team was they wanted more information about the ankle bracelets. How they worked? What other things that they could monitor with their use? It seems to be something I could research. It possibly could have a lot of pros and cons or agencies that favor them and some that would oppose them.
Another question was about judging people for how they look and maybe how much money they have. This would seem to be a very hard topic to work with, with lots of opinions and not too much real data to back it up.
The other thing that I didn’t get to touch on much was the training that PO’s will get as compared to a regular police officer. Would be a good comparison essay but to argue one of them would seem futile as they both are much needed and both serve the community very nicely.
The only other thing that was fascinating to me was the history of John Augustus. How he started the probation process from nothing. Would like to argue about that or maybe that probation has its place and serves a very important rule in the rehabilitation of some criminals. That without them we would be overrun by prisons and costs of taking care of them all. This is also a very goes topic that I my consider taking. It would work well with my investigations I have already done.
So it seems that I would like to write about the probation officers job and how it effects the rehabilitation of criminals, which is one of the primary reasons John started taking on drunkards so very long ago. Research would be found in statistics of people who re-offend after jail as opposed to how many re-offend after probation. How much time and money is spent on an offender while in jail as opposed to being on probation. I could also incorporate the ankle bracelet in as a part of the argument for Probation officers, especially the drug court ones. This is very important to me as they affect a group of people that I have been a part of for years. The group is drug court and they help so many people change their lives around and get out of drugs and alcohol that have ruined their lives completely, in most cases.
