Module 02 Discussion – Human Services in The News

Individuals who commit violent acts are always in the news.

Find an article either in a magazine, online, or in a newspaper that reports on an act of violence. In your posts include the following:

  • Explain the act of violence.
  • What happened?
  • Who was involved?
  • What was done?
  • What do we understand about the individual who committed the act of violence? What do we understand about the individual who survived the act of violence?
  • How do you think the family members of the victim feel? What about the family members of the perpetrator?
