Richard Castle is a rich mystery writer who works at the New York State police department’s twelfth precinct to inspire his work. Alongside the very talented detective Katherine Beckett, he helps to solve murder cases of all kinds. Unfortunately, since Castle is merely an amateur sleuth, the trouble he gets in is inevitable and ranges from getting trapped in a giant freezer to almost dying from an incurable disease. Regardless, Kate is always there to save him and Castle has returned the favor countless times. Castle and Beckett’s relationship has no doubt evolved since the first season. For example, the two have finally admitted that they have feelings for one another that go far beyond mere friendship. The two were in a relationship for quite some time but neither had dared to think about what lay ahead. One day at a time, they tested the waters of a relationship they were not sure would go anywhere. However, the two were in love and nothing, it seemed, could change that. Unfortunately, Kate being the accomplished detective that she is, gets the job offer of a lifetime when the FBI informs her of an opening and offers her the position. This seems wonderful at first but the fact that the job is in D.C. urges her not to tell Castle even though she knows this might compromise their relationship. Only when she knows for certain that she got the job does she inform Castle she is pursuing her dream and furthering her career. But Castle’s entire life is in New York and dropping everything to follow his girlfriend when he has a mother and daughter to worry about is less than ideal for him. After a short break apart, Castle and Beckett meet at a park and Castle tells her what is on his mind. The speech she thought was going to end the... ... middle of paper ... ...ct, on the same cases and often side-by-side, the relationship these protagonist’s share must be free of any poisons. In order for this to take place, the two confront each other with any conflicts they might have towards each other and always be honest with each other. This interpretation is therefore in the literal sense of the word. Finally, the series is based on the fact that justice is a dominant truth in society based on its morals. According to society’s laws, a crime must be punished. Murder is therefore a federal offense sometimes punishable by death. It is therefore crucial in a judicial system for there to be police officers and judges to enforce the law that all citizens must abide by to avoid society crumbling into anarchy. This is the basis which the Castle series is established since the plot of every episode revolves around a murder investigation.

The first time the reader encounters conflict occurs when Elisa is tending to her chrysanthemums in her garden. As she works, Elisa handles the flowers with care and compassion; she makes certain that nothing will come to harm them as though they were her own children; "No aphids were there, no sowbugs or snails or cutworms. Her terrier fingers destroyed such pests before they could get started." (273) When her husband comes to her, as she is working, he does not commend her for her work, but he scorns her, saying "I wish you'd work out in the orchard and raise some apples that big." (273) A high degree of "man against man" conflict is generated by the husband who fails to appreciate his wife and what she treasures. The presence of this conf...
As the inspector begins to investigate the murders of the boys he collects history books that he believes will give him insight into Richard III and his horrible crime. The first history book he comes upon is a historical reader which bears “the same relation to history as Stories from the Bible bears to Holy Writ.” This book explains the tale of the princes in the tower using short paragraphs and full page illustrations which teaches an important moral, but adds no insight to the real story of Richard III. The second text he uses to investigate the crime is a proper school history book. The first realization he comes to while reading this book is that all school history books seem to separate history into easy to digest sections associated by the different reigns that never intersect or overlap. The second realization is that Richard III must have had a towering personality to have made himself “one of the best-known rulers” in two thousand years o...
The judicial system we know today has changed in many ways. One of the ways this system changed is how they reach a verdict, In the modern day long investigation have to take place and reliable evidence has to be shown to the court so that there is less chance that the accused could be misjudged unlike the medieval times were it was common that people were misjudged. The medieval period taught us that we have to be sure of which person is guilty and innocent. Unlike believing one Man’s word like the medieval
Today our world is filled with crime. The people committing these crimes must have a consequence for their illegal actions. The system in place to keeping everything fair and safe is called the criminal justice system. This was put in place to ensure there is fairness and justice served to people who break the laws set up by the government.
“ ….Judgments, right or wrong. This concern with concepts such as finality, jurisdiction, and the balance of powers may sound technical, lawyerly, and highly abstract. But so is the criminal justice system….Law must provide simple answers: innocence or guilt, freedom or imprisonment, life or death.” (Baude, 21).
The criminal justice system is composed of three parts – Police, Courts and Corrections – and all three work together to protect an individual’s rights and the rights of society to live without fear of being a victim of crime. According to merriam-webster.com, crime is defined as “an act that is forbidden or omission of a duty that is commanded by public law and that makes the offender liable to punishment by that law.” When all the three parts work together, it makes the criminal justice system function like a well tuned machine.

Within two classical works of philosophical literature, notions of justice are presented plainly. Plato’s The Republic and Sophocles’ Antigone both address elements of death, tyranny and immorality, morality, and societal roles. These topics are important elements when addressing justice, whether in the societal representation or personal representation.
The system of justice that Nietzsche employs although somewhat cynical has a substantial amount of merit as a form of justice, which is present in our society. This is demonstrated through the depiction of the creditor/debtor relationship that exists in our democratic societies, and the equalization process that occurs, and furthermore that Nietzsche is correct to assess justice as such a principle. The issue is most obvious in the penal system; however it is also prevalent in personal day-to-day relationships as well as political structures.
This conflict is everywhere and is evident as Juliet laments the cruelty of it, that her true love is also her family’s greatest enemy making her at war with herself the same with Romeo showing deeply conflicted states also on his side.
The Law today is a summary of various principles from around the world from the past and the present. Early practises of law were the foundation of the law that we know and abide by today. These practises were referred to as the Classical school. Over time however, different criminologist have altered and greatly improved the early, incomplete ideas and made them more complete and practical to more modern times. This newer version is referred to as the Positivist school. This rapid change from the classical to the positivist perspective was due to the change and growth of civilization. Even though one perspective came from another, they are still different in many ways and it is evident when relating them to section 462.37, Forfeiture of Proceeds of Crime, and section 810, Sureties to keep the Peace. The Classical School of criminology’s time of dominance was between 1700 and 1800. Its conception of deviance was that deviance was a violation of the social contract. Classical theorists believed that all individuals were rational actors and they were able to act upon their own free will. A person chose to commit crimes because of greed and because they were evil. The primary instrument that could be used in regards to the classical school to control crime was to create “criminal sanctions that instil fear of punishment in those contemplating criminal acts” (Gabor 154). Classical school theorists believed the best defence was a good offence and therefore they wanted to instil so much fear into people about what would happen to them if they were to commit a crime that even those who were only thinking of committing a crime were impacted greatly. The classical school individuals operated entirely on free will and it was their ...
