A criminal justice professional must maintain his or her integrity by remaining a credible at all times. Research integrity issues in the criminal justice profession of your choice and compose a one-two page paper discussing three issues that could compromise one’s credibility and how to avoid such professional pitfalls.

Writing Tips:

• The deliverable length of your homework assignment is 400-500 words, one to two double spaced pages (does not include title page or reference page).
• Remember to create in-text citations for every source you use to create a sentence for your paper.
• Every in-text citation must have a corresponding reference on the reference page of your paper.
• All homework assignments must be in APA format. They must have a title page, body, and reference page.
  • Every in-text citation must have a corresponding reference on the reference page of your paper.
  • Papers must be double spaced, using 10-12 point font, with one inch margins all the way around.
  • Tip: Website addresses are NOT references; they are links to websites only.
  • A reference contains four basic parts: An Author, year, title, and publisher. A website address does not contain those parts and is, therefore, not a reference.
  • Please do not include only a website address as a “source” in your references list.
