Abstract:

In 1935, the state educated as many high school students as it supported inmates across the state. These statistics caused debate amongst state politicians on how to correct this situation. The State Superintendent of Public Instruction in North Carolina presents an argument that better training and education in citizenship would create a more responsible population less likely to be imprisoned.

Abstract:

The murder of Dawn Jolly by her husband Randall Jolly on September 18, 1989 prompted a response by the Women of Orange County. The group has stated that the criminal justice system is soft on domestic violence and failed to protect Dawn Jolly. Trying to determine what is wrong with the system and how to fix it, excerpts from 30 interviews are pieced together highlighting the challenges of protecting against domestic. Those interviewed and quoted include judges, lawyers, police officers, abused women, and women’s rights advocates.
