November Case Questions11/18/2014 Case 1: Do you think the defendant in the first case had some domestic problems such as abuse or other issues that would have made her commit the crime? If so what type of issues do you think she is facing? What can she do to overcome issues in her life?
Case 2: Defendant two seemed to be accompanied by both a good influence and a bad influence at the scene of the crime. Why might she have listen to the bad influence knowing that it was wrong and although she was warned not to do so? Do you think peer pressure is more powerful than knowing between wrong and right and being warned?

I believe in the first case the defendant had circumed to abuse by her father.She could take Therapy or seek some help. It seems her parents are nonchalant.She could have commuted the crime to gain popularity.

Defendant two seemed lackluster she felt something for her uncle and needed a father figure.Her mother is careless with her and needs to step up her game inorder to raise her child. She just needs time away from family to gather her thoughts.

Case 1: I believe that the defendant doesn't suffer from physical abuse but probably emotional and or mental abuse. She sees her father give attention to all her other siblings and other things but not to her. This could cause her to have issues with her own self esteem since she feels as if she's not worth the time of her own father. What she could do is go to individual therapy and family therapy with her father. This way she can deal with individual problems as well as issues that she's having with explaining or expressing her feelings with her father.

In the first case, I believe the defendant was suffering from some type of abuse from her father. I feel she should attend therapy to resolve the issues at home so they don't affect her daily life.

Case 1: I believe the defendant did go through some domestic problems but I don't believe that led her to steal. It seemed as if the father abused her emotionally and physically. The only way she could prevent that is by simply not seeing him anymore.

Case 1: The defendant is most likely being challenged in this stage of her life by the endeavors to the art of peer pressure. It is in this moment specifically that she is not only facing the mental pursuit for acceptance but she is also facing the hardships of an absent father. She can overcome these issues by focusing on her schoolwork while joining extra-curriculars that feed her interest but also have a positive effect on her.

Case 1: I don't believe the defendant suffered from any kind of abide. But I do believe that her actions were a cry for help and she should go to therapy. Talking out your problems can always help.

Case 2: I think she committed the crime because she wanted to be accepted. Peer pressure got to her and instead of looking lame she did the crime. Peer pressure will always triumph over what's right and wrong

Case 1: I think that the defendant did have some type of domestic issues with her father such as neglect, but I do not think that those problems were the reason of why she committed the crime. I think she simply committed the crime to seek acceptance from her father. I sugest that she go to therapy both with her parents and alone.

Case 1: I think that it there is a possibility that the defendant was physically abused, but I feel, based on her, that she was mentally abused by her father. The stress of the mental abuse from her father might've caused her to resort to petty theft.

Case #1: The defendant in the first case did seem like she was undergoing peer pressure, which can be a reasonable motive as well as the fact that the defendant might just be wanting to fit in. Therefore doing what they might be told to do; in addition, the lack of a father in her life may also be affecting her actions.

Case one: I believe the domestic violence came from abuse from her father while he was with her in the household throughout her childhood . She should deeply consider visiting a therapist to aid her with her domestic violence problem.

Case 1: I do believe the defendant was going through some emotional problems at the time, in which she might want to consider therapy for treatment.
