Students will conduct research and write a 4-5 page (1000 words minimum) paper discussing a famous and perhaps infamous court case in American history that, either in your opinion or popular community opinion had a wrong verdict (outcome) to the case and why. For instance, in the OJ Simpson case, many people believed he was guilty of murdering Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman, yet he was found innocent in criminal court. The paper would discuss the details of the case, how the prosecution and defense argued, how the verdict was reached, etc. (You cannot use this case!) The paper is to discuss how the verdict was reached and whether the controversial verdict rested with the prosecution’s failure to prove the defendant’s guilt or with the defense’s lack of argument, etc (win/lose). Also, discuss the facts of the case and debate the arguments brought forth from both parties. Additionally, based on the information researched, the students are to take a side in whether they believe the defendant is innocent or guilty in the crime accused and debate why they believe so at the end of the research paper. The paper must be in APA format and contain an introduction, the body of the research. and a conclusion. The paper MUST contain in-text citations from at least three sources The research paper should give an “abstract” on a separate paper (attached before your written researched paper) that includes why the specific court case choice was chosen and where most of your research was conducted. Don’t forget a Works Cited Page at the end! APA Style:
