Students will select a different topic for each paper. For each paper, the topic must be a criminal case that has been covered by the media. Besides using your textbooks as a source, you must also use five other additional outside sources for your paper, and two of these should be scholarly in nature. For example, you may use a combination of the internet, academic journal databases, books, encyclopedias, videos, newspapers, etc., but primarily relying on a source like Wikipedia or a textbook is not acceptable.
