CB Week 6 Discussion

To prepare:

  • Review the Learning Resources this week to deepen your understanding of the Depravity Standard and classifying crimes by severity of depravity.
  • Review the “About the Research” page of the Depravity Standard website, then complete the Depravity Survey located on the “Take the Survey” page.
    Note: To complete the survey, you must enter your email address.
  • Consider the ways in which crime depravity has changed over time and your views on sentencing in relation to depravity.

 Post your response to the following questions:

  • In what ways has crime evolved over time?
  • Should sentencing of offenders be based on the relative depravity of their crime? Explain your rationale.
  • What are potential problems in collecting and/or incorporating depravity findings in sentencing laws?

Note: Your post should be substantial (1 paragraph or more for each bullet point above), supported with scholarly evidence from your research and/or the Learning Resources, and properly cited using APA style.
