    Legalism was based off a fixed system of laws that defined a specific fixed penalty for each certain offense. Legalism had no bias or changing of the penalties, no matter what class or circumstances, there wasn’t even an exception for the ruler who was considered to be above the law. While working a case judges had to find out what the crime was and then the punishment was given immediately, since penalties were fixed. On page 59, when Judge Dee begins to suspect Mrs. Djou of killing her husband due to having an affair with another man, he tells her that a woman killing her husband is one of the most terrible crimes to be committed.…

    The issue at hand in Ibrahim, is one of a very sensitive nature. It is also one where human error drastically changed the life of one individual. Regardless, even though at the time of the decision the U.S. Government did not allow Dr. Ibrahim into the country, I do not think changes are necessary to the watch list procedures the United States currently employs. Judge Alsup wrote in his decision that this issue is one that can only be rectified with a post-deprivation remedy.…

    My poem also uses repetition of the question, “How could OJ be guilty”? This question was crafted after the villanelle style of repeating a line in the poem. The question was repeated in order to convey the misgivings that the members of the public felt during the time of the trial and to show the bias that people had towards OJ because of his celebrity status. This question also shows the lack of concern many people had for Nicole and Ron due to their main focus on OJ. At the time, it seemed that OJ became more of a victim instead of the murder victims and most people focused on whether or not OJ was guilty.…

Groupthink is an idea in which a group makes faulty decisions due to group pressures that lead to a deterioration of “mental efficiency, reality testing, and moral judgment.” Group members have to the extent of devaluing other people and valuing the group as their highest and only priority.

To aid with this argument, effectiveness means the "The quality of achieving an intended result," and even though Dee solved the murders that he encountered, the means in which he solved…
