Long Binh Jail was what the troops during the Vietnam War called the U.S. Army Installation Stockade in Long Binh, South Vietnam. This overcrowded military prison was one of the most feared locations in all of Vietnam, the place where Army rule-breakers and dangerous criminals from throughout Vietnam were sent. Within its razor-wire-bound confines were Americans whose offences ran the gamut: refusal of orders, drug possession, assault, rape, and murder. Containing up to a thousand prisoners at a time, it was, in effect, the Army's own little penal colony and one sharply divided by race. In 1968, most of its African-American prisoners took over the compound in a riot that was noted around the world as yet anther sign of U.S. forces' sagging morale. Military historian Cecil B. Currey tells the story of Long Binh Jail through interviews of dozens of former guards, prisoners, and adminstrators.Author: Cecil B.

More and more womenmothers, grandmothers, wives, daughters, and sistersare doing hard prison time all across the United States.

The answers are in Women Behind Bars , in which investigative journalist Silja Talvi sheds light on why American girls and women are being locked up at such unprecedented rates. Talvi travels across the country to weave together interviews with inmates, correctional officers, and administrators, providing readers with a glance at the impact incarceration has on our society.

In the 1700s, New England colonists used public humiliation, torture, and hanging to punish moral crimes like kissing on a Sunday or skipping church. Jails were filled with rats and disease, and prisoners had to pay for food and blankets. Yet jails didn't turn out to be much of a deterrent. The number of crimes exploded as the population increased and cities grew larger. Over the centuries, American prison reformers have tried to find a way to end crime once and for all. From solitary confinement and the electric chair to group counseling and parole, the U.S. prison system has been reinvented again and again, but have these reforms really made a difference? Discover the true history of crime and punishment in the United States in Locked Up.Author: Laura B.

Before September 11, 2001, few Americans had heard of immigration detention, but in fact a secret and repressive prison system run by the U.S. Immigration and Naturalization Service has existed in this country for more than two decades. In American Gulag, prisoners, jailers, and whistle-blowing federal officials come forward to describe the frightening reality inside these INS facilities. Journalist Mark Dow's on-the-ground reporting brings to light documented cases of illegal beatings and psychological torment, prolonged detention, racism, and inhumane conditions. Intelligent, impassioned, and unlike anything that has been written on the topic, this gripping work of investigative journalism should be read by all Americans. It is a book that will change the way we see our country. American Gulag takes us inside prisons such as the Krome North Service Processing Center in Miami, the Corrections Corporation of America's Houston Processing Center, and county jails around the country that profit from contracts to hold INS prisoners. It contains disturbing in-depth profiles of detainees, including Emmy Kutesa, a defector from the Ugandan army who was tortured and then escaped to the United States, where he was imprisoned in Queens, and then undertook a hunger strike in protest. To provide a framework for understanding stories like these, Dow gives a brief history of immigration laws and practices in the United States--including the repercussions of September 11 and present-day policies. His book reveals that current immigration detentions are best understood not as a well-intentioned response to terrorism but rather as part of the larger context of INS secrecy and excessive authority. American Gulag exposes the full story of a cruel prison system that is operating today with an astonishing lack of accountability.

During the 1980s hundreds of thousands of refugees fled civil wars and death squads in Central America, seeking safe haven in the United States. Instead, thousands found themselves incarcerated in immigration prisonsabused by their jailors and deprived of the most basic legal and human rights. Drawing on declassified government documents and interviews with prison officials, INS staff, and more than 3,000 Central American refugees, Robert S. Kahn reveals how the Department of Justice and its dependent agency, the Immigration and Naturalization Service, intentionally violated federal laws and regulations to deny protection to refugees from El Salvador and Guatemala who were fleeing wars financed by U.S. military aid.Kahn portrays the chilling reality of daily life in immigration prisons in Texas, Arizona, and Louisiana. Behind the razor-topped prison walls, refugees were not simply denied political asylum; they were beaten, robbed, sexually assaulted, and sometimes tortured by prison guards.Other People’s Blood traces the ten-year legal struggle by volunteer prison workers and attorneys to stop the abuse of refugees and to force the Justice Department to concede in court that its treatment of immigrants had violated U.S. laws and the Geneva Convention for over a decade. Yet the case of American Baptist Churches v. Thornburgh, which overturned more judicial decisions than any other case in U.S. history, is still virtually unknown in the United States, and today the debate over illegal immigration is being carried on with little awareness of the government policies that contributed so shamefully to this country’s immigration problems.

This ebook presents a compilation of authoritative documents from the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP): Community Volunteer Handbook; Offender Transition Program Resource Manual; Legal Resource Guide to the Federal Bureau Of Prisons.Community Volunteer Handbook: Prepared by the Inmate Transition Branch, this handbook is designed to assist those who volunteer to provide services to offenders during their incarceration in federal correctional institutions. These institutions, all part of the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP), are located at over 100 locations throughout the United States, some in major metropolitan areas like New York and Chicago, and others in smaller communities like Manchester, KY, and Gilmer, WV. Wherever they serve, volunteers can help to accomplish the BOP s mission: It is the mission of the BOP to protect society by confining offenders in the controlled environment of prisons and community-based facilities that are safe, humane, cost-efficient and appropriately secure, and that provide work and other self-improvement opportunities to assist offenders in becoming law-abiding citizens. As of April 2006, over 190,000 offenders were serving time in federal custody. The Bureau operates institutions at five different security levels in order to confine offenders in an appropriate manner. Security levels are based on such features as the presence of external patrols, towers, security barriers, or detection devices; the type of housing within the institution; internal security features; and the staff-to-inmate ratio. Each facility is designated as either minimum, low, medium, high, or administrative. The opportunities for volunteers to serve are both rewarding and varied, and can be designed to meet their personal qualifications and time schedules. However, they will need to meet the security and related requirements of the federal prison system. This handbook will describe these requirements and help each volunteer meet them in a timely and efficient manner. Offender Transition Program Resource Manual has lists of resources, career exploration, general assistance programs, business and consumer education, substance abuse and mental health, and more. It is a particularly useful document for job seekers. Legal Resource Guide to the Federal Bureau of Prisons is intended to serve as a guide to legal resources, including relevant statutes, regulations, policy documents, and current case law concerning issues the BOP faces today. It provides a general overview of the BOP, its services, and its programs. Contents include: Pretrial Issues, Pretrial Detention, Pretrial Inmate Health Care, Evaluation of Offender Mental Capacity, Sentencing Issues, Probation and Condition of Probation, Imprisonment, Judgment and Commitment Orders, Post Conviction Issues, Programs and General Services, Work Programs, Reliqious Programs, Substance Abuse Treatment, Urine Surveillance, Medical Services, Mental Health Counseling, Visiting, Telephones, and Correspondence, Discipline Procedure, Inmate Access to Court, Administrative Remedy Programs, Personal Property, Special Administrative Measures, Family Emergencies and Temporary Releases, Release, Community Notification, and more.

Global Crime Prevention Unit - a new way of tackling mysteries and fighting crime. Will Doyle had not spoken to his sister Chloe for five years. But after she invited him to her house in South London, he is asked to join the mysterious G.C.P.U. - an elite team who utilise the power of the internet and modern technology to solve complex mysteries and crimes. Unsure if he will join, Will nevertheless shadows the team on a particularly unusual case... The E-Book Murders is the first novella in an exciting new series of futuristic crime novellas called G.C.P.U. (Word Count: Approx. 30,000 words) Extracts: "Sorry to interrupt but can we backtrack here for a second - what is Foursquare - look, I do know about Facebook cos a few mates of mine made me sign up, but..." "I'm prayin' to God ya didn't put all your info up there," Nepthys interrupted. There was no mistaking her Californian accent when it was set against the others' middle class London accents. "I just filled in all the forms, like you would with any form." "Even your birthday and hometown?" "Of course. Should I not have?" "Facebook's a bit like Hotel California - 'You can check out anytime you like, but you can never leave'." "What Nepthys means is that once you upload your details onto Facebook they'll hold them forever - even if you eventually remove yourself from their site." Chloe said. "How are the modifications to the MQ1 Predator coming along?" "I'd rather talk about it when we know for sure if he's on our side." Nepthys replied, while glaring coldly at Will. But it wasn't just her dress sense, she had also mastered the art of moving with stealth in an urban environment. She found that if she walked at certain angles in different enclosed spaces and repeated these movements, most people would fail to notice the repetition of her movement. And this led to strange experiments, such as when she walked across the same crossing near Tottenham Court Road Station two hundred and twelve times before anyone noticed her and thought she was lost, or when she managed to walk around the dance-floor in the Ministry of Sound without being accosted by a single guy for the entire night. Now, she decided that she needed to examine the men's toilets to see if she could find any evidence there. She looked around the room to see how many men were sitting on the ground floor, she counted four and then she went to the first floor and saw seven men. As she walked round the first floor, giving the impression that she was looking for a friend, she examined each of their drinks to see how much was left. Half of the men though, had closed white cups for their coffees, so she tried to work out how much was left in these drinks by looking at how they lifted their drinks and to see if this gave away their drink's weight and in turn how much was left in each cup. To her delight, when she looked at one of these cups after one of the men left the first floor, she learned that her guess for his cup was emphatically accurate. Author: A.D.

This groundbreaking book presents a definitive look at the history of crime prevention strategies and policies in the United States. It analyzes the failures of American crime prevention techniques and possible solutions our country might seek to reduce crime, drugs, and disorder in the future. It looks at both sides of the crime prevention issue: the failure of the current criminal justice system and the possibilities and advantages of citizen participation in crime prevention programs and strategies. It also addresses such key issues and dilemmas as our perception of crime through the media and school crime.Author: Dennis P. Rosenbaum, Arthur J. Lurigio, Robert C.

Crime Prevention: Principles, Perspectives and Practices provides a comprehensive, example-based overview of prevention theory and practice. Unlike other books, it argues that contemporary governments can and should embrace crime prevention as a policy alternative to 'law and order' and, unlike most criminologists, the book's authors contend that crime prevention strategies should include both social prevention (programs addressing social causes of delinquency) and environmental prevention (reducing crime by minimising opportunities). After arguing the case for prevention, Crime Prevention: Principles, Perspectives and Practices discusses key approaches and analytical frameworks, and explains theories and techniques of both social and environmental prevention. Other issues discussed include program evaluation; crime prevention in Australia, the United Kingdom, other western European countries and the United States; crime prevention in public places; and crime prevention and public disorder. This book is essential reading for professionals and students in the areas of crime prevention, criminology and sociology.Author: Adam Sutton, Adrian Cherney, Rob White Paperback: 208 pages Company: Cambridge University Press (2008-07-21) ISBN: 0521684250 List Price: $51.00 Amazon Price: $41.47 Used Price: $41.51 
Characterized both by its interdisciplinary and its applied nature, crime prevention is influenced by diverse fields such as psychology, sociology, criminology, health care, urban planning and design, education, economics, community development, and social work, among others. The study of crime prevention is also focused on developing and evaluating interventions for applications in real-world settings. In addition to exploring basic concepts and theories, Crime Prevention: Theory and Practice reflects the predominantly applied nature of the field, offering readers the knowledge and skills necessary to plan, implement, evaluate, and sustain effective crime prevention interventions.
The book examines dominant approaches (situational, social development, community crime prevention, and community policing), as well as process-oriented issues essential to its application (planning, implementing, and evaluating a crime prevention project), balancing a scholarly analysis of the subject while imparting useful skills. Emphasizing an experiential learning approach, this text: Presents an introduction to and overview of the theory and practice of crime prevention Explains how etiological theories of crime and criminal behavior inform each of the dominant crime prevention approaches Encourages the development of knowledge, expertise, and practical skills among students and crime prevention practitioners that can be applied in the real world Provides a detailed, step-by-step approach to the planning, implementation, evaluation, and maintenance of successful crime prevention interventions Enhances the development of critical analytical thinking, communication, and writing skills of the reader The text includes learning objectives, discussion questions, case studies, interactive exercises, and field research assignments which ground the theoretical concepts in a practical framework, providing an optimal learning experience for students and practitioners alike.

From the supplier: The effects of traffic safety regulations in different circumstances with different predictions concerning incentive effects are analyzed. Source of data came from a cross section and yearly time series of automobile drivers, motorcyclists and pedestrians killed or injured in Norway in 1980-1986. Theoretical analysis reveals that the level of activity of individual prevention is very sensitive to different attitudes towards risk and types of risk situations. Individual changes in behavior due to regulatory changes can be predicted. Citation Details Title: Adverse incentives from improved technology: traffic safety regulation in Norway.

As a young boy growing up in Texas, I learned early that wars were characteristic of death. The news, described the American losses of each day's battles. Once in a while, you would hear how the Americans fought bravely and turned back the enemy or they took over a stronghold. Even when I was in basic training, our marching cadences dealt with being shipped back in a box. I then found myself trying to define hero. I couldn't answer that, because I was led to believe you had to do something very heroic. Whether you lived or died, you were a hero... I found out in later years, a hero is anyone who puts on the American uniform in defense of our country. Why are hometowns of America not recognizing the deceased heroes, outside the battle field, of past and present wars? In my book, I take you step by step through everyday life in a combat zone. What it's like being involved in actual battle, and the casualties resulting from each conflict: the men, the women, the real heroes.Author: Ray Jackson Paperback: 316 pages Company: iUniverse (2008-09-11) ISBN: 0595523013 List Price: $22.95 Amazon Price: $14.60 Used Price: $14.60

Johnny Banta squinted at the light in his eyes. He held one hand up in front of his face and dropped his head. “All right, already,” he said sarcastically. “You can knock off the Dragnet routine. I know my rights. You can’t pull this shit with me.”A large hand swung out of nowhere and connected with the side of Johnny’s face. Johnny fell backwards out of his chair and quickly propped himself on one elbow. He rubbed his face with the other hand and scowled. “You can’t get away with this. When my lawyer gets through with you, you’ll wish…” Someone’s shoe caught Johnny in the ribcage and he fell over with a thud, gasping for a breath of air. Johnny moaned and curled up in a fetal position on the floor. Four hands grabbed at Johnny’s expensive suit and pulled him back up into the chair. Lieutenant Brody was the first to speak to him. “What is it you wanted to say to your lawyer?” Author: Bill Bernico Kindle Edition: 10 pages Kindle eBook Company: Downwind Publications (2011-07-14) (2011-07-14) List Price: $0.99 Amazon Price:

Did the Supreme Court's upholding of Miranda in 2000 adversely impact law enforcement, as conservatives have complained, or was it a reaffirmation of individual rights? Welsh S. White looks at both sides of the issue, emphasizing that Miranda represents just one stage in the Court's ongoing struggle to accommodate a fundamental conflict between law enforcement and civil liberties, and assessing whether the Court's present decisions (including Miranda) strike an appropriate balance between promoting law enforcement's interest in obtaining reliable evidence and the individual's interest in being protected from overreaching police practices.

"Black Magic for Dark Times: Spells of Revenge and Protection" is for every good, decent person who has been the victim of violence, threats, fraud, official corruption or other crimes and is without a conventional form of redress. It is the first spell book especially for survivors of violent crimes. It was written to help you deal with situations in which every normal means of justice has been cut off. It is a black magic spell book for the times we live in - a time of pervasive injustice and rampant, unchecked crime and corruption.The terms "revenge" and justice" are both about bringing balance and harmony to a situation. Both words have similar meanings, but different connotations. Justice is balance and harmony brought about through the courts and the justice system. Revenge is balance and harmony brought about on an individual level. This book contains spells for both of these situations. When there is no justice, the conjurer can make it. When there is no way to identify the perpetrator by conventional means, he can be routed out using the often misunderstood science of magic. If you believe that all of the world is bent toward justice and karma will get the evil-doers in the end or they will be judged by God and burn in fire and brimstone forever, then this book is not for you. If you can reconcile living in a world with such people and the complete absence of justice by simply saying, "They'll get theirs someday," then put this book down and go back to sleep. Come back and read this book when you can face the truth, when you are filled with self-righteous anger and ready to invoke cosmic justice upon the perpetrators of evil acts with all the forces of Hell! Over 100 spells and formulas plus tips for making spells more effective. Includes spells to protect from and exact spiritual justice in cases of: Police brutality, judicial corruption, domestic violence, rape, stalking, harassment, unjust foreclosure and banking fraud, bullies at work and school, gossips, illegal checkpoints, airport security, government raids, home and travel protection, theft, bad neighbors, threats, creepy landlords, negative energies, unwanted house guests and - finally - how to heal from the trauma for survivors of violent crime. This is a unique spell book of practical magic especially for crime survivors and those dealing with official corruption, written in a conversational style. Part of the purpose of the book is to reawaken people to the idea that magic is a force for change in the real world. Note: This is not a book on ceremonial magick.

You don’t have any weapons with which to defend yourself. Or do you? I’ll show you an arsenal of makeshift weapons you’ve probably got at your fingertips right now. I’ll show you simple self-defense techniques. Easy and effective. You’re riding in your car, when someone bumps you from behind. You stop to get out, and look at the damage, and POW, you get robbed. Where did you go wrong? You’re stopped at a stoplight. Suddenly someone sticks a gun in your ear and says, “Give me your car.” The wrong move at this point may get you killed. Would you know what to do? Parking lot paranoia – how can you get back and forth to and from your vehicle without being assaulted, robbed or raped? You’re driving in your vehicle. Another vehicle is right on your tail. He seems to be following you. What do you do? Most people will do the WRONG thing. How to survive your stay at the hotel/motel without having anything stolen from your room and without being assaulted or worse. You’re in an elevator. A guy gets on with you that doesn’t look so bad. The doors close and he spins you around and starts to claw at your purse, or tear at your blouse. Would you know what to do? The common response is the WRONG response! Quick, somebody points a gun at you. Do you know what to do? Did you have to think about it? If you did, you took too much time and you just lost. You carry a knife for self-defense. Before you do, consider this. Ever heard of this one, keys between your fingers for self-defense? I’ll tell you why this often used, often relied on technique probably WON’T WORK. Rape, Sexual Assault. Do you know where most rapes and sexual assaults occur? If you don’t, you’re putting yourself at risk. Would you know how to react if you were robbed?

Make sure the next vehicle you buy has this option. How to prevent carjacking. Staying safe while walking or jogging. Imagine getting your purse snatched. You’re knocked to the ground, and your purse, and all the contents are gone, driver license, credit cards, car keys, social security card. Could this have been prevented? You bet. I’ll show you how. You’re taken hostage and thrown in your own trunk. Would you know how to get out before you suffocate or bake alive? You will after you read this. You’re driving your car, late at night. You see blue/red lights behind you. You haven’t done anything wrong, and you’re not so sure that car is the real police. Now what? MUCH MORE… The time to think about the answers to these questions is not when you are confronted by them. The time to learn your options, and your family’s options, is RIGHT NOW, while you are safe, and sound. Not tomorrow. Not next week. Not when you get around to it. By then it just might be TOO LATE… What is the safety and security of you and your family worth? Can you even begin to put a dollar value on something as precious as that? Of course not. Don’t you want to do everything you can to protect yourself and your loved ones? Discover how in "Kick Ass" Self-Defense and Personal Protection for Women!
