JUS 101 CCP Introduction to Criminal Justice Mass Incarceration Short Discussion

I’m working on a criminal justice writing question and need a sample draft to help me study.

This assignment is due Sunday 11:59pm. 3 short paragraphs, with a citation page. Thank you!

“For your research assignment this week, draft a three-paragraph essay addressing the issues of why the United States has one of the highest incarceration rates in the world.

You may want to discuss:

• when our increase in prison population began in the United States,
• the reasons underlying the increase, and
• whether current policies continue to increase the overall population.

Make sure to cite to any referenced articles.”
