Each of your answers should be written using your own words. Do not copy and paste from your textbook or an Internet source. Simply copying from the book word-for-word does not show me that you understand the concepts. Ensure you cite your work and add reference(s) at the end of your journal. This assignment is designed to see if you are reading and understanding the material from your textbook and learning modules, so these should be the sources you are citing in your work. You should not need to do research from additional resources unless the question specifically asks you to do so; you should not be Googling the answers for these questions.1)Compare and contrast some of the different treatment methods used in female prisons verses male prisons. How can correctional treatment be more effective? Should self-help programs be used in conjunction with treatment? Why or why not?
2)Discuss when a Writ of Habeas Corpus is used and provide a real-life example in your answer.
3)Define clemency. When is clemency used within the correctional system? Do you agree or disagree with the use of clemency, explain your answer.
