For Part I of this Assessment, you are going to create an executive summary that argues for or against a criminal justice policy. In preparation, you will locate three data sources to support your argument. The data can address recidivism rates, gun control, victimization or any other topic of interest to you. For this Assessment, write 1-page paper that includes your short description of the criminal justice policy you will be arguing for or against.

One type of visual aid is a Microsoft PowerPoint presentation.
