The Chamberlain trial and appeals

There was unjust of this case. Firstly, ignorance and prejudice about the Seventh Day Adventists would run ahead of the evidence. Secondly,there was no effectively communication to a jury in a criminal trial. finally, thsere was public disbelief from the media. I think that this case was against the laws such as freedom from bias, equality before the law, presumption of innocence and the right of appeal. We should also take account in considering whether the evidence establishes.

Domestic violence

Family violence called as domestic violence. Domestic violece happen in families between members and an intimidate relationship with victim such as boyfriend, girlfriend or same sex relationships. Especially, the violence follows a cycle or pattern which goes from relatively calm to explosive phases of violence. Domestic violene can include any forms of physical abuse, such as punching , hitting, pushing or using physical force against another person. It also include different forms of assult. The following are the examples.

• sexual abuse
• verbal abuse
• emotional or psychological abuse
• damaging property or being cruel to your pets

However, domesitc violence shouldn't confused with day- by- day disicipline by parents.

Markson in the clear, as police drop investigation into driving offences

summary

Max Markson did speed driving over 20 times in last 20 months but he didn't lose his licence and demerit points at all. The reason of this that his company paid extra penalty for no nominating the driver in each offence.

Personal Reflection

The penalty for failing to nominate a driver has been doubled to $5500 for individual and $11.000 for a company since 19 April 2010. However, some people try to use a loop-hole in the law all the time so I think that the law should apply to further strengthen the provision to make fairness for everyone.
