Discuss the reliability of eyewitness identification, the legal test that govern the admissibility of eyewitness identification , and any measures that could be adopted to increase the reliability of eyewitness identification.

Eyewitness identification (which includes identification by the victim of the crime) is frequently the most important (and sometimes the only) evidence in criminal cases. An in court identification of the defendant by the victim or another eyewitness is oftentimes the most powerful and dramatic part of a criminal trial. Not surprisingly, juries give tremendous weight to eyewitness testimony. Consequently, defendants positively identified as the culprit by a credible eyewitness are convicted in an overwhelming majority of cases where such testimony is presented. Unfortunately, numerous studies have consistently concluded that eyewitness identification evidence is extremely unreliable. In reality, most people are very bad at remembering exactly what strangers really look like, especially during brief, highly stressful, and/or traumatic situations such as criminal encounters. The problem is particularly acute in the context of cross racial identification, i.e., when the defendant and the witness are of different races. There are many reasons for this, including the inherent suggestiveness of certain identification procedures employed by law enforcement, particularly the “show up.”

The video for this discussion board presents a tragic example of well intentioned, but erroneous, eye witness identification. Sadly, the case is by no means an isolated incident. In fact, a study of wrongful convictions subsequently overturned as a result of conclusively exculpatory DNA evidence concluded that erroneous eyewitness identification evidence was presented in 79 percent of those cases. Read ahead to pages 269 to 285, and discuss the reliability of eyewitness identification, the legal test (and factors) that govern the admissibility of eyewitness identification (see the Neil v. Biggers case included in the materials for this discussion board), and any measures that could be adopted to increase the reliability of eyewitness identification.

Neil v. Biggers (Please note that scientific studies have concluded that the factors considered important by the Supreme Court in this case have been determined to be of questionable value in enhancing the accuracy of eyewitness identification).

Discuss the reliability of eyewitness identification, the legal test (and factors) that govern the admissibility of eyewitness identification (see the Neil v. Biggers case included in the materials for this discussion board), and any measures that could be adopted to increase the reliability of eyewitness identification.

Elaborate on the receptor agonist-antagonist actions of the drugs and describe the most common side effects seen with these drugs.

This assignment will be a continuation of the written assignment from Week One. Research a minimum of three peer-reviewed articles in addition to information from your text on the disorder you chose in Week One. Consider the key classes of drugs used to treat the disorder you chose in Week One and explain their action at the neurotransmitter system involved in the disease process. Analyze and describe the agonist-antagonist activity of the drugs and the receptor types and subtypes involved in the disorder. Elaborate on the receptor agonist-antagonist actions of the drugs and describe the most common side effects seen with these drugs. Evaluate the risk-benefits of drug use for this disorder.

Describe the responsibility of the social workers in the Parker case. Please use the resources to support your answers.

One of the reasons there can be so much debate  about ethical issues is because ethics are opinions informed by people’s  values and people have different values. People can disagree about  whether or not something is unethical, and, oftentimes, there is no  right answer. In order to make decisions about what may be ethical or  unethical, Yegidis (2018, p. 25) suggests focusing on these three  questions:

  1. “Who should benefit or suffer from the actions of the researcher?”
  2. “Whose rights should take priority over those of others?”
  3. “Does the end (increased knowledge) justify the means (the methods used to acquire it and their potential for harm)?”

For this Discussion, view the Sessions  episode on the Parker family. As you do so, consider which, if any,  ethical mandates or standards were violated.Post a response explaining your  reaction to the Parker episode. Be sure to address whether or not the  social worker violated any ethical mandates or standards. Also explain  which strategies could have been used to guide ethical practice.  Finally, describe the responsibility of the social workers in the Parker  case. Please use the resources to support your answers.
