VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
Introduction

Substance-related culpable represents a critical issue for society. Accordingly,

criminal justice offices have generally conveyed personal social mediations, to both male

and female criminals frequently dependent on accepted societal impartiality. Building up

a deliberate and ideographically pertinent comprehension of the treatment adequacy and

sociability issues may guarantee the responsivity of such petitions to requirements of

female wrongdoers. Three primary subjects come up when dealing with this and its

significant parts of recuperation, robust remedial procedures, and interruptions to

restorative procedures. The advantages of having the option to uncover horrendous and

unfavourable life occasions just as upgrades to inspiration is especially noted. At the end

of this case study, I aim to achieve the following, including the use of hypothesis for

connection to understanding culpable conduct, building up a definition of hazard and

distinguishing proper treatment pathways.

Angela Turners life

Miss Angela Denise is convicted and is currently serving a lifetime sentence in

prison. These assignment aims to give a complete detailing of the variables that added to

the Angela hostility, the factor that the parole board should be looking for her release and

the best intervention. Discuss the role of alcohol and how it affected her decision on a

fateful day. Also, to find the best possible action in which we can help Angela by

providing both recommendation and solutions. The best course of action and treatment

and therapy to help her.

VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
According to social psychologist, Geen and Donnerstein aggressiveness is a

conduct that is planned to hurt another person who doesn't wish to be injured. (Geen &

Donnerstein, 1998). Angela Denise was born in Clayhatchee, Alabama, in the year 1978

and was the only child to Wonder and Clayton Nicole. Her parents divorced when she

was born, and her mother was remarried several. Angie had six stepdads, and her mother

was more of a friend than being a mother, according to her friend. She went to live with

her grandmother. Her Godmother Barbara Peters describes as sweet, outgoing, and full of

laughter, and everybody loved her. She also says that she liked being the centre of

attention.

Her friend also explains that she also wanted to do crazy things. She started

drinking and partying while underage. It was easy for her to acquire alcohol because her

mother and Godmother used to drink and drink was lying around. She feels that her

drinking was what later brought her problems. The lady dated her highschool sweetheart

mark until he had a road accident and succumbed. She rushed to be married at 17 and

gave birth to a daughter. In 1999 she gave birth to her second daughter Miranda. Her

friend advised her to slow down from drinking and her behaviours. Due to her stress and

emotional discomfort at age 25, she attempted suicide. Her diagnosis was major

depression and boredom personality disorder. People with personality disorder tend to

continue making the same types of mistakes time and again.

Angela and Antoinette met at a behavioural centre and became friends. Angela

reached the wall and reached for the knife while Antoinette Jobson was sitting and

stabbed her on the chest. She was asked if she was guilty and accepted that she was. It

was on Christmas Eve in the year 2004 when a 911 call reported the vicious murder in
 4
VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
wicks burg Alabama. At the time of the crime, she was 26 years old. She was also drunk

and was trying to flee the scene. The police found her friend collapsed in the stairs and

was bleeding to death. According to the police, her friend had no idea that Angela was

going to stab her. Angela claimed that the stabbing was an accident, but the evidence was

overwhelmingly contradictory to her story. It was impossible to think that angela was a

coldblooded murder. According to psychologist doctor, Doug McKeown Angela was not

psychotic and was not also out of touch with reality but just intoxicated and knew the

difference between right and wrong. He also says that when individuals engage in

partying and drug use with their knowledge, then they are taking the life of other people

in their hands.

Every person, including the friend, family members, and the family of tony

Jobson, have a different reason that believes led to Angela killing Tony. According to

what I gather, it may be the fact that Angela Turner had a lot of depression. Many factors

caused her depression. The fact that her parent got divorced and she kept moving with her

mother to different homes. She had six steps, dad. Secondly, the fact that her high school

lover died in a horrible accident and her other boyfriend also killed in a tragedy. Thirdly

is that her marriage even never lasted, and the father of her kid abandoned her, and she

had to look for means of taking care of her kids. These factors led to the belief that

Angela needed help, and she never received it early enough. The fundamental question is

whether Angela gained from killing her friend Tony? She did not achieve anything from

the death of her friend, and she feels remorseful for what she did.

The 5P's
 5
VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
A case system can be thought of as any way of helping patients to understand

what their problems are, in which they originated, and what maintains them going. CBT

case formulations regularly have five elements: presenting hassle. Predisposing factors

that made the character prone to the hassle Precipitating factors that triggered the

problem Perpetuating factors, including mechanisms that hold trouble going or accidental

consequences of an, try to address the hassle and protecting features.

Predisposing These are vulnerability or historical factors that contribute to the risk.

factor Angela's parents divorced when she is young. Her diagnosis is a boredom

personality disorder and major depression.

Precipitating factor The factors that contribute to the current situation also called trigger

factors. The fact that her partner's died in tragic accidents and her other

partner left her out to dry with her kids.

Presenting the Excessive drinking of alcohol, partying, and drug use are some of her

problem problems. The drinking starts when she is still an underage because her

mum and step mum left the drinks lying around. Due to these problems,

it leads to her killing her friend.

Perpetuating The fact that she continues working at bars. Also, she continues with

relationships that do not last for long. She also continues drinking

excessively, and this does not help her case.

Protective It is also called a positive impact on her life. She checks herself in the

hospital to get the necessary treatment. She has a will to change, and she

is remorseful.

Links to aggression literature

 6
VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
Observation of motivation is involved with addressing a selected movement, or

movement is initiated, persists through the years, or inhibited, and the alternatives made

as a part of such processes. The prevalence of aggression has appealed to the attention of

social scientists of all stripes for a long time. Its miles a concept these are conceived

independently from, even though indeed framed inside, the broader issue of violence. The

literature on aggression degrees from theoretical research to experimental and empirical

research.

We can attribute Angela's behaviour to general aggression theory. We see that

her environment leads to her early engagement in heavy drinking and use of drugs. She

articulates "If you may even think you have a drinking problem get the help you never

know your life may change literally within the blink of an eye". It tries to explain

causality to that which investigates outcomes of aggressive conduct; from gender

differences to explorations related to cultural, financial, and societal factors. After the

loss of both her partners in tragic occurrences, it tends to send her deeper into drinking.

As a barmaid, she also had liquor at her disposal.

It would be a mistake, therefore, to be looking for a superficial definition or

knowledge of hostility. The interdisciplinary and multidimensional environment of

learning on the matter is too considerable to warrant such hasty manoeuvre. Though,

many authors hold at the least positive vital and theoretical components of aggression in

commonplace with one other, making an allowance for a few convergences inside the

discussion as an entire.

How motivated is Angie to change.

 7
VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
This part explored the role of how growth has an effect on personality and socio-

cognitive factors in aggression and taking a look at how these factors contributed to

motivation to change for better. The fact that she feels remorse is a show of goodwill and

how willing she is to take a bold step and turn her life around. The two children are a

source of motivation, and she feels that she owes it to them to turn her life around. "I feel

my children pain from the ground; It pains me it tears me" that's her remarks. The feeling

that her children have passed enough of her crazy life motivates her. The fact that she

killed her friend makes her feel insignificant "it makes me feel worthless." She said.

Parole board consideration before releasing Angela to society.

Broad areas that parole look at are, what do the offender recognize approximately

their offending and how and why it passed off. The fact Angela Turner shows remorse

does not mean that she has owned what she did. There is no place and time that she has

accepted her fault, but she continues to put her blame on being an alcoholic. What has

changed about themselves, given that they have been in prison? Angie says that "I'm a

different person today and I look at life differently now. I respect life more, and that is

something that I have to deal with every day" And what's going to be different about

destiny? Angie has no plans because she feels that she will not get a chance to be released

if she will be able to help the board apprehend those three things that might be persuasive

in figuring out to release them.

Barriers

The main barrier seems to be her unacceptance of what she did and accept the

consequences. The blame is shifted to her lawyer Mr Davis that he was ill-advised her not

to take the stand. According to what she said, "I did want to take the stand because I

wanted her parents to know that I did not mean to do this that I didn't mean to take her

life".But turner says that the lawyer did not allow her to take the stand. "I had given

mister davies a list of 25 people that would speak to show that when I was drinking, I

would do crazy stuff like running naked in a convenient store. He said that I didn't prove

intent, so they proved the case for us. Then they came back with a guilty verdict that was

I was shocked I couldn't believe it" she said. The first factor on the road to healing is

acceptance.

Recommendation

People who are passing through this need to be supported; some of them attribute

this not to their liking. Family is the most crucial part of a person's emotional cycle.

Family therapy is an essential part of treatment. The main aim of the therapy is to make

sure it intervenes and change the family setting to minimize the contribution to violence.

Angela should also be helped with alcohol management which was the cause of her

problem. Discover the bad reinforces and retaining elements for aggression so that those

can be explored, challenged and replaced with the aid of extra pro-social factors.

The Life minus violence (LMV) remedy modules form a part of an intensive

excessive-dosage mental remedy program. The LMV program is cognitive behavioural in

basis. It uses a range of strategies to bring learning points consisting of Motivational

 9
VIOLENT AND SEX OFFENDER INTERVENTION
techniques which is an affirmation, reflections, summaries, Socratic questioning and

open-questions. Roleplay and mood induction processes include function-play; cognitive

restructuring, substitute thoughts and behaviours'—Arrowing-down and relaxation

techniques like questions designed to define the centre of underlying beliefs.

Conclusion

In conclusion, alcohol and violence seem to go hand in hand. Angela, who was

described by the godmother as one of a kind and loveable girl, end up committing one of

the most gruesome murder when drunk. However, we discover that alcohol is no defence

then this leaves us with the question why did she do it? Is it because of what she was

diagnosed with the boredom syndrome and significant depression personality? Different

people in different situation have different levels of aggression when they have consumed

alcohol. A significant objective for future research is to recognize which singular

distinction and logical variables are generally substantial in figuring out who will, and

won't, act in a forceful way when intoxicated.
