PS 218: Criminal Law & Criminal Procdeures
3.00 Credits
Arcadia University
Criminal law and criminal procedure dominate our legal system. The fundamental legal principles of criminal law affect defendants, victims, and law abiding citizens. Most people generally understand what is right from wrong, but few understand what conduct actually constitutes a crime, the elements necessary to be convicted of a specific crime, and the procedural rights implicated when the government accuses a person of a crime. This course examines the prohibitive conduct and necessary intent of the most commonly charged criminal statutes. The course utilizes case law to interpret the elements of these criminal statutes and demonstrate the analytical framework necessary to prove the criminal charges. From a procedural standpoint, the course examines the general rules of law pertaining to: prohibitive/permitted search and seizure, the exclusionary rule, probable cause, right to counsel, and fruit of the poisonous tree doctrine. This course is designed for any student possessing an interest in criminal law. The course provides particular benefit to a student interested in attending law school or a student seeking a career in criminal justice. (i.e. police officer, probation officer, county sheriff, etc.).
