Information on PREA

0 comments

Using the information you discussed in your collaborative and class discussion this week, create an 8- to 10- slide Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation in which you discuss how federal legislation has addressed violence and victimization within correctional facilities at the federal, state, and local levels of jurisdiction. In your presentation:

  • Describe at least three separate goals of the PREA legislation. Provide the standards developed by the DOJ to achieve each of these goals.
  • Outline the jurisdictions which are subject to the PREA legislation. How does the PREA legislation extend the oversight of the DOJ to jurisdictions previously not subject to such oversight?
  • Discuss the behaviors which constitute a violation of 18 U.S.C. §242, Deprivation of Rights under Color of Law. Detail the penalties of violating this criminal statute.

NOTE: presentation must include speaker notes.
