Let’s go back and make a phone call and see what’s going on.Parts of speech, specifically missing pronounsAnalyze the following statements and identify as many applicable components of statement analysis as you can attribute to the deception:“Got approached by a gentleman asking for money. When I addressed him, I was struck in the rear and knocked to the ground. Struggled with him. There was a shot that went off. Struggled with him, and there was another shot that went off. That was the shot that hit me.”“On July 4, 2011, at about 4:00 p.m., came home from work and took a shower. Was getting ready to head out to some friends’ barbeque and party. My friends Jerry and Paul were having some people over for the Fourth of July. Sat down for a few minutes to watch television and relax. Had two beers until about 5:30 p.m.“Put my feet up on the table when the doorbell rang. It was an ex-girlfriend, Sally. She sat down with me for a few minutes. They wanted to tell me about their new boyfriend. I wasn’t so happy about it; I didn’t really want to break up with her. I watched the race and argued some, and she left, at six or so.“At about 7:00 p.m. drove to my friends’ place. They live in the country and it took me an hour to get there, arrived at eight or so. When we got to the party, there were about ten or twelve people there; they were pretty wasted already, and they were drinking most of the day. Sat down outside and had a few shots and several beers. It was hot, so I went inside, and I watched television to cool off. Drank about two more beers and talked with two girls that were friends of Jerry; they were friends of my ex-girlfriend as well. They stated that my ex had found another boyfriend and they were already talking marriage and children. I watched the car race for a while, by myself, and then went back outside to play horseshoes. I played a few games and had an argument with one of the other guys, and they wanted to fight, so went inside to cool down again.“At about ten or eleven, one of the people at the party came to me to tell me that my ex, Sally, had been found outside her house, hurt and barely alive. She was taken to the hospital.“I watched the end of the race, close to midnight, had a few more beers and left. Went directly home.”

As we learn in the video, Crimes of the Powerful, our justice system tends to focus on street crime, often ignoring much more significant problems such as white-collar, corporate, and state crime.

Present a clear statement about a particular crime, something we know to be absolutely true. Illustrate how we know that this is an accurate statement. Present an example of a widely held myth or misconception about crime and society. Determine how we know that this is a myth. Explain why this myth is so difficult to abandon. The paper must be three to four pages in length and formatted according to APA style. You must use at least two scholarly resources

Many companies are using social media to advertise, collect information, or gather background on individuals. Do you think this is ethical?

Social networking Web sites create online communities of Internet users that eliminate barriers created by time, distance, and cultural differences. These sites allow people to interact with others online by sharing opinions, insights, information, interests, and experiences. Members may use the site to interact with friends, family members, and colleagues they already know, but that they may also wish to develop new personal and professional relationships on the sites.Social network advertising uses social networks to inform, promote, and communicate the benefits of products and services, and there are several advertising strategies. Banner ads on social networks can either be displayed to each visitor to the Web site or by using the information in user profiles, directed toward those members who would likely find the product most appealing. People frequently make decisions based on input from their close group of friends and advertising and use an individual’s network of friends. Company-owned social networking websites allow users to talk about new products, services, or improvements they would like to see and the company can implement customer-submitted ideas. Viral marketing is where users pass along a marketing message to others, creating the potential for exponential growth.Many companies are using social media to advertise, collect information, or gather background on individuals.
