Fixing the U.S. Criminal Justice System

Fixing the U.S. Criminal Justice System

Paul Brakke

Changemakers Kids

The sad truth is that the U.S. Criminal Justice System doesn't work for many different reasons -- from our overflowing prisons to the destructive war on drugs and disproportionate effect on minority communities to conflicts between police and citizens and problems with prosecutors and the courts. In FIXING THE U.S. CRIMINAL JUSTICE SYSTEM, author Paul Brakke provides an in-depth look from a conservative perspective at the many flaws in the system and how to fix them. The chapters in the book cover these topics: - why our criminal justice system is a national shame - how families suffer severe collateral damage - alleged misconduct by the police - how powerful prosecutors misbehave - when judges show bias and exceed their judicial power - how the media makes matters worse with their sensationalized coverage - nine prescriptions to fix our broken criminal justice system This is an important, break-through book that shows the damage of the system not only to individuals accused of crimes but to their families, the economy, and society as a whole.

The Costly U. S. Prison System: Too Costly in Dollars, National Prestige, and Lives

Paul Brakke

The prison system in the U.S. is in crisis. We have far too many prisoners and spend far too much on housing them and building more prisons. We have far too harsh penalties for less serious nonviolent crimes, so we are unnecessarily incarcerating people who could be productive citizens, and destroying families in the process.In THE COSTLY U.S. PRISON SYSTEM: TOO COSTLY IN TERMS OF DOLLARS, NATIONAL PRESTIGE AND LIVES, author Paul Brakke provides a careful, close-up look from a conservative perspective of what's wrong with the prison system and how to fix it. The key topics covered include these: - a recent history of incarceration in the U.S. - facts about our prisons and correctional system - how other countries deal with prisons and recidivism - the tendency of a convicted criminal to reoffend - how one U.S. state and one U.S. city have dealt with prisons and recidivism - ways to reduce recidivism - ways to reduce incarceration and cut costsThis important book summarizes much of what has been written on the subject by academics who use inscrutable terminology and have failed to offer practical solutions. It provides many new suggestions for reducing our bloated prison system and its excessive costs.

Dealing with Crime by Illegal Immigrants and the Opioid Crisis is based on a blog series I wrote for the website of my company American Leadership Books (www.americanleadershipbooks.com). The book features chapters on these topics: - how illegal immigrants really do commit more crimes, - evidence from the Department of Justice showing that illegal immigrants have a higher crime rate than other groups, - examples of some of the serious crimes committed by illegal immigrants, - statistics showing that Hispanics commit more violent crime than whites, - some suggestions for fixing the illegal immigration mess, - why the death penalty is appropriate for opioid traffickers, - how the death penalty works in other countries, such as Singapore and China, - some suggestions for dealing with the opioid crisis, - and more.

Why are there so many divisions America? What can we do to fix these divisions that are tearing the U.S. apart?FRACTURED AMERICA discusses these many divisions and how to fix them. It begins by looking at the first racial divide going back to Civil War times. Then, it fast forwards to discuss the present conflicts, such as the controversy over the killings of blacks by cops and the Black Lives Matter movement. It describes the difficulty of ending segregation and ending or delaying affirmative action. Additionally, the book points out other divides based on: - geography and politics, including the nationality and language divides caused by undocumented immigrants, - the North-South divide, - the division between the Coasts and Middle America, - rural and urban American differences, - conflicts between different ethnic groups, - lifestyles of younger and older generations. - the income inequality between the rich and poor, which is getting wider. The book concludes with some suggestions for reforming the system. These are fixes that are desperately needed, as uncivility and violence between groups are getting worse -- unless we do something to create a new unity in the U.S. This book will help you think of ways to heal the growing divisions.
