[ send me this paper ]
This 15 page report discusses
the concepts associated with mediation processes and discusses
the ways in which cultural, social, and personal biases can have
a significant impact on the successfulness of the outcomes
reached through mediation. Mediation has become an effective and
beneficial means of dispute settlement in a number of
circumstances. The mediator creates a safe and encouraging
environment for deliberation, fostering new ideas, shuttling
settlement options back and forth and focusing attention on
feasible solutions. The process is not only cheaper than
litigation but more geared to fixing what is broken. The most
important thing to understand is the fact that in the vast

Menendez Brothers: Case Summary
[ send me this paper ]
4 pages in length. The Menendez brothers' case is perhaps one of the most orchestrated of all mass murders in history. Initially testifying their parents were victims of a mob hit, Erik and Lyle were ultimately charged with the heinous crime due in great part to holes in their stories and their seeming indifference to the gruesome scene to which they led police on that fateful August day, 1989. Examining the case against the Menendez brothers, which required a second trial after the first was declared a mistrial, finds that what eventually came to pass was the boys' plea for insanity based upon the alleged psychological and sexual abuse they suffered at their parent's hands while growing up in a world of wealth and privilege.
