These issues and how we address them are a reflection of us as a society. Unfortunately, these challenges will not be going away soon. The question is how do we address them and what are we going to do to make the necessary changes?<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">\n<h2>Human Trafficking<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/worldpopulationreview.com\/state-rankings\/human-trafficking-statistics-by-state\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">US is ranked<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> as one of the world\u2019s worst countries where human trafficking occurs, with over 199,000 cases yearly. California ranks as the state with the highest cases at over 1,300 reported.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are five types of human trafficking:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forced labor (modern-day slavery).<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Forced criminal activity.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sexual exploitation.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Removal of organs.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People smuggling.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Combatting human trafficking is a top priority. It\u2019s become all too familiar that people from developing countries are exploited. Federal law and policymakers are focussing on laws and programs to support victims and prevent occurrences, but it\u2019s not an easy task as smugglers stay a step ahead of the law.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h2>Mental Illness<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As research into the relationship between mental illness and crime continues, it\u2019s become more apparent that people with mental illness are more likely to commit a crime. It\u2019s estimated that people with mental illness are ten times more likely to be incarcerated. More than 70% of prisoners in the justice system have some form of mental illness, substance abuse issues, or anti-social behavioral issues.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">President Biden\u2019s announcement of a new package of measures to build on the American Rescue Plan aims to address our country\u2019s substance abuse and mental health crisis. Although this is most appreciated, throwing money at the situation won\u2019t solve it. We need to overhaul the entire criminal justice system. This is a big job, and mental health providers, law enforcement, the court system, policy, and lawmakers must work together to address it.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Drug Crime<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With America\u2019s growing opioid epidemic, more drug arrests are placing considerable pressure on our criminal justice system. A <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.prisonpolicy.org\/reports\/pie2022.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">study released in March 2002<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> states that the war on drugs incarcerations was at 374,000 on any given day, and one in five prisoners is locked up for drug-related offenses.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h2>Cybercrime<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As we find ourselves in the 21st century, cybercrimes have increased dramatically. Extortions, cyberbullying, identity theft, data breaches, and more are daily challenges. It\u2019s the fastest growing crime and threat taking place in America today. Lawmakers, policymakers, and IT experts play a critical role daily in keeping us safe. We must be flexible, adaptive, and proactive in addressing this threat in our interconnected world.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h2>Seguridad nacional<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Homeland Security plays a vital role in our nation\u2019s safety. The criminal justice system must find a balance in addressing homeland security threats and issues without compromising our individual rights. For example, the Patriot Act, written by John Whitehead, violates at least six of the ten Bill of Rights amendments.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<h2>Bottom Line<\/h2>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On average, 1.9 million people are held in jails in the US on any given day. It\u2019s evident that something needs to change in our criminal justice system. How and why we incarcerate offenders should be the primary questions we should ask ourselves. Policymakers, law enforcement, and social structures need to change.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>Sources:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.waldenu.edu\/online-masters-programs\/ms-in-criminal-justice\/resource\/five-important-issues-criminal-justice-professionals-tackle-every-day\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.waldenu.edu\/online-masters-programs\/ms-in-criminal-justice\/resource\/five-important-issues-criminal-justice-professionals-tackle-every-day<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/ideas\/archive\/2022\/05\/mental-illness-treatment-funding-incarceration\/643115\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">https:\/\/www.theatlantic.com\/ideas\/archive\/2022\/05\/mental-illness-treatment-funding-incarceration\/643115\/<\/a><\/p>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69e899560a504\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row\"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-animation-delay=\"\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap row-bg-layer\" ><div class=\"row-bg viewport-desktop\"  style=\"\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone\"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\n\t<div class=\"wpb_video_widget wpb_content_element vc_clearfix   vc_video-aspect-ratio-169 vc_video-el-width-100 vc_video-align-center\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_video_wrapper\"><iframe title=\"Promoci\u00f3n 1 voto m\u00e1s cercano\" data-src=\"https:\/\/player.vimeo.com\/video\/456406040?dnt=1&amp;app_id=122963\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"autoplay; fullscreen; picture-in-picture; clipboard-write; encrypted-media\" src=\"data:image\/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB3aWR0aD0iMSIgaGVpZ2h0PSIxIiB4bWxucz0iaHR0cDovL3d3dy53My5vcmcvMjAwMC9zdmciPjwvc3ZnPg==\" class=\"lazyload\" data-load-mode=\"1\"><\/iframe><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>\n\t\t<div id=\"fws_69e899560aa45\"  data-column-margin=\"default\" data-midnight=\"dark\"  class=\"wpb_row vc_row-fluid vc_row full-width-content vc_row-o-equal-height vc_row-flex vc_row-o-content-top\"  style=\"padding-top: 0px; padding-bottom: 0px; \"><div class=\"row-bg-wrap\" data-bg-animation=\"none\" data-bg-animation-delay=\"\" data-bg-overlay=\"false\"><div class=\"inner-wrap row-bg-layer\" ><div class=\"row-bg viewport-desktop using-bg-color\"  style=\"background-color: #a65bf4; \"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"row_col_wrap_12 col span_12 dark left\">\n\t<div  class=\"vc_col-sm-12 wpb_column column_container vc_column_container col no-extra-padding inherit_tablet inherit_phone\"  data-padding-pos=\"all\" data-has-bg-color=\"false\" data-bg-color=\"\" data-bg-opacity=\"1\" data-animation=\"\" data-delay=\"0\" >\n\t\t<div class=\"vc_column-inner\" >\n\t\t\t<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"divider-wrap\" data-alignment=\"default\"><div style=\"height: 4px;\" class=\"divider\"><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div> \n\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div> \n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Criminal Justice Reform: Complex Issues Criminal Justice Face Everyday Actions aimed at fixing errors and making necessary or desirable changes in the criminal justice system Criminal Justice Reform: Complex Issues...","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-9385","page","type-page","status-publish"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9385","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9385"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/9385\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/1votecloser.org\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9385"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
