You have really good examples of crimes that help your questions. I think that the examples you used in your survey are really good and bring up really strong ideas.

Police officer can be portrayed as incompetent people, harsh, over the law Dirty cops, It seems like tho the actual coverage of police officers on the news is eclipsing the fictionalized versions. officers are now viewed either very negatively or very positively. It depends on the story of a crime. Frequently, videos show officers are treating people poorly but maybe it's the person being unresponsive to the cop, using harsh language or being over dramatic. It's really not the cops fault. They get angry if someone is being inappropriate, cussing at them, Not doing what there supposed to be doing. We Humans get angry and it's normal for us. In realty it's the person's fault. They ask for too much instead they should just comply with the officers.

KEYC NEWS.
===========================
Through my observations of crimes happening around our area. It's looks like the type of crimes that are happening are about shootings, minor killings and robberies Not much news crimes about racial issues or police brutality. Looking around the Minneapolis area there a very few crimes happening around that area. Overall in the state of Minnesota their are few crimes that are happening mostly minor shootings and burglaries. I think Covid-19 plays a role in that since we are ordered to stay at home as well as fearing the virus.

In my opinion I personally think the Criminal Justice System is unfair to criminals. They could potentially change a criminal into a new-reformed person living a life with no crimes being committed again. Everybody deserves a second chance in live. Instead of sending to them to prison for a simple robbery, or assault that could be minor, smoking, taking drugs. Instead they are being sent to sent to prison for a very long time for a minor crime. There has to be others way's instead of sending them to prison, They should offer them help, counseling,rehabilitation. You might say that these are being offered by in reality they are not. Its better that they are being locked up and to throw that key away. That's what the system does. Seeming that if they are being locked, they resolved that issue. They are not looking at the underlying cause of the crime in the first place, There just putting off instead of helping that individual. The media should empathize in the flaws in the justice system. Over 60 percent of people in jails have yet to face trial, some are considered by a judge to be dangerous or a flight risk, but most other's can't afford bail. Those who are locked waiting trial often lose there jobs, homes and they are likely to commit a crime if they put in that situation. Reports say that jails house 10 times more people with mental illnesses than state hospitals. The Reality of people being there is there is nothing being done to help those people who have mental problems, Once they are out it's likely the will commit a crime and come back in jail. This shouldn't be the way. The system should offer them help. Overall, there are many flaws in the system that need to pointed out and solved but it seems that there is little work being done and its seems it would still be the same.

What affect does media do to the The Criminal Justice System ?
===========================
The Media can change the the Attitudes of society towards the Criminal Justice System. Our confidence and trust can change in support for the system in a negative or positive way. Lower trust and confidence can push citizens on not respecting system. Race has a very important impact towards the system. Its shown that black people more likely to have less confidence on the criminal justice system. As you look around majority of the news you seen involves a shooting of a black individual, Brutality, racial profiling by law enforcement. The lack of confidence and a fear of crime can lead to unrest and a complete distrust of the system pointed to black communities. It shouldn't be this way that one side can have confidence in the system but the other having fear because of there color also to be pointed out even immigrants lack confidence and they fear the system because of their status.

In 2018, The FBI released a statistics of crimes rates. It is shown that Violent crimes decreased. In 2018 crime rates decreased down to 3.3% from 2017 crime rates. This means the crime is slowing decreasing. Crime in large cities are too decreasing, violent crimes and murder. The reality is that crimes rates are actual dropping not fast but slowly and in times like this pandemic people are ordered to stay at home and fear of the virus too. This could play a big part in crime rates later on when new statistics are released we could potentially see crime rates dropping. Overall for the realty of crimes being decreased slowly, its seems that crimes are actually increasing. In reality, no. Media tends to make it seem like it is. The media favorites crimes in order to gain views or to gain manipulation on political sides.

Reality Vs Perceived  Portrayals of Crimes

---------------------------
Perceived Portrayals of Crimes: Whether on TV or other social Platforms chances are you will stumble on some crime news. Its could be on police brutality, Murder on a black individual, Racial profiling, you name it. So Us Humans tend to perceive those in our concluded judgement, It could be negative or positive depending on how you take it in. But do you actual know the full story behind that crime, incident? Mostly likely not because the news, media tends to point the important parts that stands out. It's kinda like that saying "Don't Judge a book by it's cover" There is always a story behind that crime that we see but majority of us viewers never do our homework on why that crime occurred. Media coverage typically focuses on individuals with little discussion of the social context that contributes to criminal actions. Sometimes they provide very little context on both sides of that crime. It totally depends on us on how we perceive those crimes on the media. The media news knows how put those stories and political sides could play in that. Being on the left or right. The Media portrayals are particularly influential for individuals who have little or no contact with the criminal justice system, as they may easily rely on the media images to form their view of the criminal justice system. For the meaning of this its said that those who have very little understanding of the criminal system are those who tend to be impacted by media compared to those who have knowledge. In other words its like giving a book that's not a grade level to a kid and having to read it, they would have a hard time understanding it compared to someones that's at the level of a book. Sometimes people tend to be gullible to what they hear.
