Assignment: Complete and upload Assignment #2: Research question and justification, and list of 5 scholarly references relevant to your research project in APA format due using MS Word. See the example and additional notes here Download here. Please make sure the assignment is saved as a .doc or .docx document, not as pdf, wpd, or other program.

You need to select a topic of interest to focus on for this assignment & Assignment 3. For the first of these assignments, due this week, you need to be able to clearly state a research question or research issue of interest in one sentence or question. This topic should be both limited enough in scope so that you are able to find specific research on it but one that is not so limited that you can’t find anything on it. It also must be in social science (so not include variables that are biological or other non-social science variables). The following are a couple of examples of the kinds of topics you might consider: Does gender of defendant have an impact on criminal case outcomes? What attitudes do members of the public hold about national health care? What factors play a role in girls’ and/or young women’s decision to join gangs? Are families who live in suburbs more or less content than those who live in urban environments?

Advise your thoughts on the application of this case to a Civil Court of Law.

Your department has received numerous complaints of losses of investment monies to a local large corporation called Moon Ventures. You are familiar with Moon Ventures and have acquaintances that work there. Moon Ventures has been operating for 12 years and has amassed over 100 million in financial revenue. The revenue is reported to be primarily derived from investments domestically and internationally. Moon Ventures reports an employee base of 1200 personnel. The commander of criminal investigations has informed you that you are assigned to this case.

Your preliminary thoughts lead you to believe that there is some white collar criminal activity to be found by just looking at the numerous complaints. Your experience with these types of cases tells you that the losses could be enormous and the discovery of evidence far reaching throughout multiple jurisdictions. You request and later receive documents from the alleged victims showing their pension investments with Moon Ventures. You suspect that Moon Venture’s financial earning reports have been fraudulently inflated and reflective of a Ponzi scheme. You know time is of the essence to gather documents and carry out interviews. Some of the complaints filed have stated their suspicion as to the shredding of documents at an accounting firm that audits Moon Ventures.

Moving forward in your investigation, you have generated a list (see below) of who to interview that includes victims, witnesses and suspects:

Joe May, CEO
Blake Milton, President
Jim Stacken, CFO (Chief Financial Operator)
Robert Krist, CAO (Chief Accounting Officer)
Sam Dorman, Finance Managing Director
William Payton, Treasurer
Jonathan Kash, Assistant Treasurer
Kenneth Smith, Head of Investor Relations
Pamela Ramerez, Managing Director of Investor Relations
Michael Connely, Accounting firm, Moon Venture independent auditor
Thomas Addams, Trader, Moon Ventures
Frederick Shea, Trader, Moon Ventures
Robert Mullen, Merrill Lynch Banker
Samuel Adamson, Acquaintance, employed at Moon Ventures
Your list of alleged offenses has grown and includes securities fraud, conspiracy, obstruction of justice and insider trading. Most importantly, you have also enlisted important allies in law enforcement from other agencies after realizing the enormity of the work and multiple jurisdictional boundaries that have been crossed.

It is time to move forward towards completing a successful white-collar criminal investigation. In your most creative fictional sense, fill in the script with lessons learned by doing the following:

Preliminary Investigation advising your initial strategy. This must include an offender profile.
What agencies have you enlisted for help in your case. Explain your reasoning as to why they are important to your case.
Interview a minimum of six people on the above list. Advise what contributions to your case will each person interviewed have to offer as witnesses or suspects. Your interview content should be basically some questions and answers in essay form.
What type of evidence was discovered? Be sure to explain where and how you found the evidence.
Present your case to the DA or prosecuting attorney for prosecution. Make sure to present the suspect(s) and their subsequent offenses you want them charged with in a criminal court.
Advise your thoughts on the application of this case to a Civil Court of Law.

DESCRIBE HOW TO DIE IN OREGON

I JUST NEED A RESPONSE TO THE PARAGRAPH I POSTED IN HERE. IT IS A DISCUSSION POST. I. WANT AN AGAINST RESPONSE TO IT. IT’S A DEBATE POST.

The video How to Die in Oregon explores the stories of different patients and their journeys with Physician-Assisted Death (AID). The topic of AID is very controversial due to a plethora of moral, ethical, and legal issues. One of the primary moral, ethical, and legal issues is that of a physician helping or aiding a patient to end their life early, typically due to a terminal illness. One of the primary responsibilities that the medical team has for their patients is to ensure that as their patient is dying is to provide as much “relief from distressing symptoms of disease, the security of a caring environment, sustained expert care, and assurance that they and their families will not be abandoned” (Corr et al., 2019).
Sue Dessayer Porter is a volunteer and advocate with End Of Life Choices Oregon that works with patients seeking AID. Before the patient takes the medication that will assist them in dying, she asks them some questions to ensure that the action that they are about to take is understood and truly desired. The first thing she discusses with the patient is that they have the right to change their mind at any time and, in choosing to use AID, the patient is in full control and it is their choice. Another thing that Sue discusses with the patient is to explain what the medication does and how the process works to aid in their passing. An excellent example of these discussions occurs in the beginning of the film when Sue has this discussion with a patient named Roger. When walking Roger through the process of what’s going to happen after he takes the medications, how he feels about it, and if he understands it, Roger responds with an affirmative and that “it will kill me and make me happy” (How to Die in Oregon, 2011).
To understand the position that patients choosing to use AID are in, simply imagine being diagnosed with a terminal illness and being told that the process of dying from that illness will be prolonged and excruciatingly painful. You are told that you will have severe chronic pain, difficulty sleeping, incur tremendous financial costs associated with your care, which will fall on your family to cover if your estate can’t, and that your family will have to watch you suffer until death finally claims you; again, it’s not a matter of if you will die, but when and with how much dignity left to you. AID helps patients avoid all that unnecessary pain and suffering for not only the patient, but their families as well. Most legislatures, lawyers, and physicians are able to agree that it is reasonable that patients “diagnosed with a progressive disease that is irreversible by treatment and is ‘reasonably expected to die within six months’” be set as the threshold for legalized AID (Frost et al., 2014). In the video you can see that the patients are more at ease in facing their mortality because they have the option to take the AID medications whenever they want so they can live their last few days without worrying when they will die. Moreover, the film follows another patient named Cody who discusses her journey of dealing with a cancerous mass found in her liver which caused her to be unable to eat or function independently. In the course of her treatment, Cody undergoes surgery to remove the cancer, but it ends up failing when it resurfaces. Cody’s doctor tells her that there are no further options for treatment and that she has approximately six months to live; she decides to spend her last days alive with her family before choosing to take the AID medication (How to Die in Oregon, 2011).
Physician-Assisted Suicide and Euthanasia in the Intensive Care Unit: A Dialogue on Core Ethical Issues discusses when physician-assisted death and euthanasia is morally acceptable: “We accept that we should not prolong life at all costs, particularly if those costs include intolerable pain and suffering according to the patient” (Goligher et al., 2017). A commonly raised question about AID and euthanasia, and the ethical/moral issues with it, is why is it that we can act more humanely for our animal family but not for our human family? There seems to be no moral or ethical qualms with easing the passing of animals so why then is there with humans, especially when they can provide their consent or convey their desire for AID or euthanasia? No ethically or morally compelling arguments have been provided by society.
Another reason why physician-assisted death is beneficial is because patients have the option to donate their organs, which may not be an option if some diseases progress and destroy harvestable organs. According to Jan Bollen, “organ donation after [AID and] euthanasia involves patients whose request to undergo [AID and] euthanasia has been granted and who voluntarily want to donate their organs after death” (Jan Bollen, 2017). People that choose to partake in physician-assisted death/euthanasia have the ability to choose to donate their organs if they consent to do so in order to help another individual in need. Dan Drew describes his experience with donating his kidney to Olivia DiMauro in the video The Truth About Organ Donation. Olivia suffered from polycystic kidney disease, which would eventually cause her kidney to degrade and fail. Dan explains that “the idea that you could contribute a piece of yourself to someone else so that they could be there for their kids at their wedding” is powerful and helps provide meaning for his inescapable death. “Organ donation is only possible when: (1) the organ in question is not uniquely vital to the donor’s health or (2) the donor is already dead when the organ is retrieved from his or her body” (Corr et al., 2019). In this way, the terminally ill who choose AID are not only able to choose for themselves when and how they die with dignity, but can also provide life saving organs to others – that otherwise might not be available as a result of illness – providing additional meaning to their passing.
Not only are the moral and ethical reasons for AID sound and more than reasonable, but when the human elements of compassion, empathy, and respect are also considered then there really isn’t a valid reason to make AID illegal.

Describe how these factors influenced the clinical decision making of both nurses.

Scenario
You are working as a charge nurse on a medical-surgical unit in an acute healthcare facility. One of the staff nurses who recently from bereavement leave has been assigned to care for an elderly client, newly diagnosed with stage IV pancreatic cancer. While you are visiting with the client, the nurse is completing her assessment. The client requests assistance to set up hospice care, complete an advanced directive, and reach out to his estranged daughter. The nurse stated, “I can get you the paperwork for the advance directive, but I can’t call your child for you, I am not a social worker.” The nurse leaves the room and asks to speak with you stating, “I can’t care for this client, I need my client assignment changed now or else I will go home.”

As the charge nurse, you step in and change the nurse’s client assignment and offer to assist the client with his requests. Later, you have the opportunity to debrief with the nurse regarding her reaction and decisions regarding the client’s requests and make some recommendations on how the nurse could have responded differently. You write up a summary of the events and include the follow-up conversation with the nurse.

Compose a written memo of the situation and debrief for the employee’s personnel file. Include the following in the summary:
Analysis of the internal and external cues impacting the responses of the staff nurse and the charge nurse.
Describe how these factors influenced the clinical decision making of both nurses.
Emotional intelligence action plan for the nurse based on interactions observed with the client and the charge nurse.
Include self-compassion and compassion toward others.
Include an alternative response from the staff nurse and charge nurse.
