Justice, Crime, and Ethics, a leading textbook in criminal justice programs, examines ethical dilemmas pertaining to the administration of criminal justice and professional activities in the field. This 11th edition continues to deliver a broad scope of topics, focusing on law enforcement, legal practice, sentencing, corrections, research, crime control policy, and philosophical issues. The book’s robust coverage encompasses contentious issues such as capital punishment, prison corruption, and the use of deception in police interrogation.

The 11th edition includes new material on the impact of social media on crime myths and political misconduct. Law enforcement issues including the George Floyd case and responding to domestic as well as foreign terrorism, including the January 6th insurrection in Washington, DC, are examined. The potential ethical implications of Roe v. Wade being overturned by the Supreme Court are also explored. Emerging issues in corporate misconduct are also discussed including healthcare fraud and corruption as well as crypto-currency fraud.

Students of criminal justice, as well as instructors and professionals in the field, continue to rely on this thorough, dependable resource on ethical decision making in the criminal justice system.
