You will review the court case file for an actual crime, from documents provided by the Fairfax County Circuit Court Clerk’s Office and posted on Blackboard.

You’ll also search news media archives to gain additional information on the crime, as available.

You’ll write a paper that applies each of the models of justice we study in this course to that crime.

You’ll analyze what each model would offer and decide which model you feel provides the overall best response to the crime.
