Criminal Justice: Crime, Law Enforcement & the Pursuit of Justice
How the justice system works — and how a just, merciful society responds to crime.
A full-year course on the criminal-justice system — law, policing, forensics, courts, corrections, juvenile justice, ethics, and careers — where justice and mercy are held together.
Content note: mature subject matter (crime, the justice system), handled with care and taught soberly.
What’s included
Everything a teacher needs, nothing they don’t.
The full reading, questions, and response pages — beautifully typeset for the student.
Facilitation, discussion, and coaching — walk in and teach with confidence.
Graded on understanding, reasoning, and evidence — never on a student’s personal belief.
