Week 2: Intermediate SanctionsAttention: You will not be able to see your peers’ responses until you make your first post.
Select one of the following questions for your initial post (by Wednesday). For your first follow-up post, respond to one additional post from a colleague that addresses a different question. Your last post is of your choosing.
According to some, intermediate sanctions are a means by which to limit crowding in prison.
From an offender’s perspective, what is it like being on house arrest?
From a victim’s perspective, are intermediate sanctions a form of punishment that fits the crime?
From a societal perspective, do intermediate sanctions keep us safe?
Now consider what crimes typically result in this kind of punishment and how effective this sanction has been to date.
Remember: Make your initial post by Wednesday, completing all three required posts made on three separate days by Sunday. The quality of your posts count!
