- When Is Justice Served? Insights from the Military Experience
-
Dates: 4/16/2026 - 4/23/2026
Times: 9:30 AM - 11:30 AM
Days: Th
Sessions: 2
Building: Campus Center
Room: Colonial Echo
An issue consistently discussed in our society is how to ensure “The Ends of Justice” is fulfilled in dealing with criminal offenses, the objective being to find the proper balance to protect the statutory rights of an individual while ensuring society’s laws and welfare are enforced.
This course uses the Department of Defense’s (DoD) clemency and parole program as a vehicle to examine this issue.
It presents the myriad procedures and factors, including Victim’s Rights, which are considered when deciding “when” to release inmates to integrate back into society.
DoD’s Clemency and Parole Boards make and execute decisions concerning clemency, parole, and supervised release of military inmates.
Board members consider many factors, such as: nature, circumstances of offense(s); confinement file, including offense-related rehabilitation programs; impact on victim(s); and protection and welfare of society.
Learners will experience the decision-making process by evaluating such factors during interactive class discussions of case studies.
