Assignment: Part 1: Write 400-600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas:

Identify and discuss at least 3 different types of nongovernmental police or security forces. You may also choose to profile 3 real-life private detectives or bounty hunters by presenting a biography and history on them and their exploits.

You may combine the above two tasks as long as you explore at least 3 forces or detectives in your combination.

Research and discuss at least 1 example of criminal wrongdoing by a private police or security force or personnel. This example does not have to be about one that was already covered, and it does not have to be from within the United States. Where possible, your discussion of the research should include statistical data about the different types of nongovernmental police or security forces.

Express your thoughts and feelings about the use of nongovernmental police and security forces. Do you have any policy recommendations for or against them?

Part 2: 2-3 at least pages

For this assignment, research and present the arguments for and against the privatization of prisons.

Offer your policy position on the privatization of prisons either for or against, and under what circumstances.

Include a title page, abstract and separate reference page.

Note: Be careful in selecting your source because both the corporations that run private prisons and the labor unions that oppose them have reason to slant their information (one way that private prisons save money is by hiring nonunion personnel at lower wages and with fewer benefits), so be sure to use multiple sources and cross-check your facts.
