Assessment Deliverable Sociologists and psychologists have proposed many theories over the years to try to explain criminal behavior. Among the psychosocial theories proposed are strain theory, Sutherland’s differential association theory, cultural transmission theory, and social control theory. Select and use an example of violent criminal behavior from a current event in your state and 1 psychosocial theory to interpret the criminal behavior. Use them to prepare a list of talking points as if you were a probation officer speaking to community residents during a briefing to justify decisions made in the case. Prepare for the briefing by listing the talking points that you will include in your notes while addressing the community. Provide evidence and explain rationale for the decisions made in the original case to support your open communication with residents. Include the following information in your list of talking points for the briefing, with supportive examples from your research on the selected psychosocial theory and current event: Criminal behavior: Summarize an example of violent criminal behavior from a current event in your state. Psychosocial theory: Identify a psychosocial theory and summarize its basic principles. Explain why the selected theory or school of thought is a psychological or sociological approach. Describe how the theory furthers our understanding of crimes of violence. Theory-policy connection: Describe how the theory can explain the behavior which is being targeted for prevention or prosecution. Identify a current policy that the theory may align to or support. Current policy examples include: The U.S. Marshals Service’s "Operation Not Forgotten" policy program The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives’ (ATF's) policy of cooperating with local law enforcement to keep illegal firearms off the streets United States Drug Enforcement Administration’s (DEA's) policy for collaborating with local police to combat the use of fentanyl Relate the policy to the criminal behavior. Explain what the theory implies for handling prosecution and prevention. Policy implementation: Provide a valid reason or circumstance under which the individual could be ready to re-enter the community according to the theory in this case.
