Susan is a seven year old child in the second grade. She comes from a poor family and her single mom, Betty, tends to work up to 60 hours per week which requires Susan to spend time with lots of different babysitters. Betty has few friends and even fewer social resources. At school, Susan’s teacher noticed that Susan appeared to be in pain and that she was crying for no apparent reason. Her teacher asked Susan if she was okay and if she had hurt herself somehow. Susan stated that her “private parts were sore” and that her mommy’s friend told her “not to tell anyone what happened or mommy would be in trouble”. Shocked by the child’s disclosure, the teacher immediately contacted the school nurse and the state child protection agency.  
Questions:
If Betty knew that Susan was being abused but Betty did not actually participate in the abuse, would there be any legal consequences for Betty? What if Betty did not know of the abuse, would there be any legal consequences for her? How does one prove what a person “knows or should have known”?
2. What is the role of a “Child Protection Team” (CPT) as set forth in Chapter 39 of the Florida Statutes and how could CPT assist Susan and her Mom if in fact her mom had no culpable role in the abuse? What would ‘reasonable efforts” be for this family?
3. Why is child sexual abuse so difficult to identify and prosecute?

How interlinked are sociology and criminology?
The field of sociology studies life and any social changes that might impact a person’s life. Criminology, as we know, is the scientific study of crime and everything that factors into it, including behavior. How do these fit together? Does one have to do with the other? Can one influence the other? While there are varying answers to these questions, ultimately, it can be found that they can and do have a strong relationship. Since crime has much to do with behavior, as criminology studies this, it relates heavily to sociology. There are many societal factors that influence behavior and can even lead people to commit crimes. Now, even though not all societal factors will affect people’s behaviors in the same way, they can be a significant influence among others. Important things in someone’s life, such as friendships, education, and socioeconomic status, can be contributing factors that can lead someone down a path of crime. When studying criminology, it’s important to note and take into account other fields of study that relate to and/or influence this one because it can help lead to a more thorough understanding.

Demonstrating awareness of the value of diversity and equity in the administration of justice begins with understanding the needs, values, and backgrounds of justice-involved individuals before developing suitable solutions or interventions. In this final week, you will consider juvenile justice and factors that may impede fair and equitable treatment of juveniles of ethnically diverse backgrounds.

Disproportionate minority contact (DMC)
School-to-prison pipeline
Minority female delinquency
Life without parole sentencing
