October 7, 2015 Session10/16/2015 1. The defendant from the first cases seems to have an unhealthy relationship with his mother as he does not see her as a role model do you think this is going to pose a problem during his probation period?
2. The defendant was inconsistent with his story do you think he was keeping information from the jury because he was scared of his parents or was he saying the truth? His sentence was also equal to the first defendants community service hours why was this if he was inconsistent with his story line? 3. How can we improve jury questioning in the court room?

1. It might be a problem during his probation time because since the mom isnt really around to check on him, he might not be able to keep up with probation since the mom is mostly at work.

1) Absolutely, there'd be a miscommunation between him and his mother that would most likely lead him to commit yet another mistake while on probation because she can't really seem to control him or find a way to keep an eye on him.

1. I feel the defendant will have a problem during probation because of the fact that he doesn't see his mom as a role model. Since he doesn't view his mom as a respectable figure, he will most likely not care if he disappoints her and not coincide with probation's regulations

1. I believe the defendant will have a problem with his probation due to the issue of his mother not being a role model for him, since the defendant doesn't look up to his mother he wouldn't try or care to impress her and he will eventually cause problems with his probation

1. After analyzing the unhealthy relationship between the defendant and his mother, I have concluded that this will greatly pose a problem during his probation period. In order for a positive outcome to occur, it is vital for the defendant and in this case, his mother, to work together to get through the probation period. Communication plays a key role in being able to accomplish this task, and after having listened to the way the defendant sees his mother, it is evident that there is a high possibility of issues arising during the period in question.

1) I don't believe the first defendant would have trouble with his mom during probation for the fact that just because she is not a role model dose not mean she dose not respect her as his mom

1. I think this is going to pose a problem during his probation period because since he doesn't have anybody that he admires or looks up to, he won't worry or care if she is disappointed in him.

1. This will be a probably due to the unhealthy relationship between the defendant and his mother. The mother is not seen as a role model so the defendant would not mind of he does not keep up with his probation because he might not care what the mother thinks.

1. Yes, the issue with miscommunication will most likely interrupt the process of probation. The mother doesn't really have an eye on the defendant, due to her working hours. Therefore, she cannot be keeping track of her son leading to possible problem during the probation period.

1. It might serve as a problem since the defendant and his mother don't have a close connection, meaning there won't be the appropriate attention the defendant is looking for. If this poor relationship carries through, the defendant might not finish his community service.

1. I believe that the defendant will have trouble during his process of probation because of the miscommunication with his mother. Aince his mother isnt there to ensure that he gets his community hours done, the defendant might get lazy and stop doing them.

1)The issue of not seeing his mother as a role model seems like it will cause an issue during his probation, for the reason that it will affect the defendant since he would not try to make an effort to better himself in the eyes of his mother which would lead to more mistakes on his part.

1.) I believe that the defendant will struggle with his probation due to the fact that he does not view his mother as a respectable role model, because of this he will not be afraid of disappointing his mother or committing an action that may upset her.

I think the first defendant will struggle with probation because he has issues with his mom and doesn't respect her.I think he was inconsistent and his sentence was equal to other Teen Court Sentences.I think the jury can have an equal number of court returners
Bianca Arias

I think that the defendant will not be successful in probation because of the issues with his mother. The defendant deserved a higher level of punishment but the one that he received was consistent with other court verdicts.I think the jury should not let the judges ask so many questions and do more in depth follow up questions.
Amber Castillo

I think that if we stayed on topic we would be able to have more follow up questions and therefore the defendants story might be more clear.

1.The defendants mother is not around enough to keep an eye on him to make sure he stays out of trouble. They have no communication due to her hours at work so yes it will cause a problem during the probation period.

1) I believe that i the defendants relationship with his mother will be a problem because she won't be keeping an eye on him and he will be getting away with things due to her not being home and at work.

Because of the father's dominant and very controlling attitude, I had the perception that maybe he controlled the way the audience might see this case. I got the impression that most of the things that were said seemed to be previously talked amongst the family. There was a moment when the defendant turned to his parents when he was asked a question, as if searching for help and answers from his parents. I think he was just scared overall and he did not want to get in big trouble so he took their parents advice, which maybe was to not say anything that might get into big trouble or do not tell the whole truth.

1) Yes, I believe the defendant not seeing his mother as a role model will pose a problem during his probation because it seems he doesn't care to make her proud so therefore he may not complete what he was sentenced. Even if he does complete his probation, he may commit another mistake like this because he will not care if it disappoints his mother.

1)Yes, the defendant not having a good relationship with his mother with be an issue during his probation. He should be able to see her as a role model, which will have a greater chance of trust.

1. Their relationship could definitely be a problem, especially due to the fact that she is not with him very often to check on him. However, the mother did say that they were moving near family and hopefully that might help keep him in check.

1. If the defendant does not see his mother as a role model he might not see a reason to do well in his probation. If he begins to form a heather relationship with his mother he is most likely going to want to do well for his mother and for himself to no longer let her and the rest of his family down.
Jackie Rivera

1. Yes the defendant not seeing his mother as a role model will effect his probation because he see that his mom not making a effort or she not proud of him will make him feel discouraged of his probation and stop with the sentencing.

1. It's going to be hard for the defendant to keep out of trouble during his probation because he does not have anyone to keep a close on him, remind him, and motivate him to have a successful outcome in his probation. The miscommunication with his mother will cause issues in his probation.
Anette Gonzalez

I believe that the defendant will have a problem committing to his probation because he doesn't have his mom behind him. But I think it may make him more responsible if he goes through with it with out his moms help or support.

1) The defendant not seeing his mother as a role model will pose an issue in the future because the possibility lack of communication during the probation period. If the relationship between the defendant and his mother is weak then it is more likely for him to commit another unlawful act, without the guilt of disappointing his mother.

1. Yes, not have a healthy relationship with his mother will pose as a problem for the defendant during their probation period because she won't be there to help guide the defendant towards the right choices.

1) I do believe that the defendant will have a hard time following through with his probation if he does not look up to his mother. It will be a problem because how can he listen to her if he doesn't respect her.
Elizabeth Martinez

1. The defendant will definitely have some issues because of the relationship with his mother. He needs to respect her so that she may guide him in the right path.

1. I don't think probation will be a problem because even though he and his mom don't really get along that the probation won't interfere with their relationship either way.
Leanne Caldejon

1. I believe the defendant will have an issue during his probation due to the fact that he doesn't see his own mother as a role model. She stated during the trial that she works hard to raise all her children and try the best of her abilities to provide whatever her children need.
Elisha Lugo

I believe for the first case, the minor will not have a problem with the probation. It's his consequences, his relationship with his mom is another thing. For the second case, he was jumping all over the place with the story and the fact that he was Christian had a lot to do with it because it seemed the parents were really strict with the rules. Follow up questions might have included more questions on the religious part.
Destiny Garcia

1. I believe the defendant not seeing his mom is not such a big problem, she works hard to support the family. He also has other role models in his life, such as his coaches to look after him.
Vincent Fuentes
11/23/2015 12:32:20 pm
I think this will not be a problem during this probation period because he understood his punishment and I feel like he will learn from the past

1.) The probabtion shouldn't be much of a problem due to the mother-son relationship not being so well balanced between them. Comments are closed.
