The Blue Wall of Embarrassment
Here’s a maddening misconception about law enforcement that drives most cops crazy: The old “Blue Wall of Silence.” Yes, police culture does demand a certain amount of brotherly and sisterly loyalty. After all, these people you suit up with in the locker room are the same people who may have to pound ass down a blind alley, responding to your “Officer needs assistance call.” They are the same people who may have to drag you out of a pool of broken glass and your own blood under fire.

Restoring the Community
There is a growing problem in our communities, and it has a name, Crime. There have been many attempts to handle this beast, but all falling short of expectations and some even creating new problems such as the felony stigma. However, there is a new challenger in the ring and its name is Restorative Justice. Restorative Justice is “a theory of justice that emphasizes repairing the harm caused or revealed by criminal behavior. It is best accomplished through cooperative processes that include all stakeholders” ("What is Restorative Justice?" par 1). Basically, the community gets together to decide what punishment should be dealt to the offender and it allows all those involved (including the Offender) to heal. Restorative Justice is more effective in dealing with crime and has a high success rate in places that have already implemented it. With the installation of Restorative Justice we could see stronger communities with less crime.

Coronavirus Lawsuits Against Negligent Businesses
The COVID-19 epidemic has significantly impacted our lives, schools, offices, manufacturers, small and large corporations all over the world have had to change their policies and adapt to the new reality. However, some businesses have acted negligently, placing more importance on profits than safety and therefore endangering the lives of employees and clients. As the outbreak continues, those who are at risk of an infection or who have lost a loved one have filed lawsuits against entities who are to blame for their damages. Filing a wrongful death or work injury lawsuit is not a simple task. A wrongful death lawyer is necessary to establish if the case is valid and who is at fault for the damages, as is the case for a lawsuit against an employer. Even after the outbreak is controlled, we will probably see many businesses pressured to change how they take care of employees and customers.
