Write a 700 to 1000 word paper in which you explain comonents of the criminal justice system and the criminal justice process. In your paper, be sure to include the definition of crime, it's relationship to the law, and the government structure as it applies to the criminal justice system

How would you like us to help you with this assignment?

I would like to get an idea of what it is asking. I am good at research but bad at putting it in words definitions are easy to me.

can you help?

Your paper needs to include the following:

1. The various parts of the criminal justice system: police, sheriff deputies, constables, etc.; courts; and so on.

2. The process -- for example, what happens from the time a person is arrested to ... what? appearances in court? sentencing if found guilty? What else?

3. Definition of "crime."

4. Relationship of "crime" to "law."

5. Define and explain the structures in the government (city? county? state? nation?) through which justice is delivered. (Not confident of that last word, so if you find another that's better, use it!)

PS -- Jails, prisons, etc., should be included somewhere in my #s 1, 2, and 5, too.

As you carefully study these sites, take lots of notes on information that cover the points you need to have in your paper.
