I have an assignment, the course is Criminology-101, and the assignment is:-

 

Rubric for Case Study Paper

Each student will be required to submit a case study on a violent criminal or criminals.  Emphasis should be on the background of the individuals studied and the criminal act(s) or the motivat ion(s) for the violent acts.  

During the course ,  you will have learned that many theories on criminal behavior overlap , and that it is not uncommon for more than one theory to  explain why the criminal act(s) occurred.   Your paper should apply these theories of criminal behavior to the subject’s life history.  If you desire to do a fictional character or unsolved crime, please clear with the instructor.  Do not choose a political or military individual (Hitler, Stalin, Pol Pot, etc.).
