He has already placed himself under a cloud of suspicion by the community, and while he still possess the same essential rights, he cannot be regarded deserving of the same attention as the boy. Cappa's rights must be respected to the fullest because he, in so far as anyone knows, has always respected the rights of others. Smoot has not. The temporary abridgment of Smoot's rights in order to ensure the Natural Rights of Mickey Cappa would seem to be in accord with an ideal of happiness for all. In this kind of situation, the existence of a predator or abductor in the community represents a threat to everyone's natural rights. It is a threat that should be removed. If indeed, Sylvester Smoot is innocent, his interrogation can be viewed as means both of making sure that Mickey Cappa's rights were protected, as well as away of showing to the community-at-large that he, Smoot, is no involved in the abduction. Ultimately, Smoot's innocence could serve as a step on the path to Smoot's full re-integration into community, as this instance would show that he had not committed the kind of crime for which he had previously been convicted. In either case, Smoot's own Natural Rights would not have been violated, because - if innocent - he would have been held only temporarily and would have, in a way, be working toward clearing his own name of...

Police Chief Jones:

This, too, is fallacious, as it assumes that Smoot believes police can prove that he committed the crime, even if he is the perpetrator.

While the circumstances may change, it is clear that a Prince must be willing and able to manipulate appearances in order to convince others to give their power over to him. 3.

Ethics in Statistics Ethical Issues in Business Statistics Statistical knowledge has been under gradual growth since the beginning of 20th century. This growth has subsequently advanced into broad dimensions of data handling and analysis, resulting into a fully-fledged scientific discipline. Statistics is a science that serves within the framework of construction, and theoretical mathematical applications in order to analyze a set of numerical data hence obtaining credible knowledge (Kemptborne, 1979). Statisticians, thereby,
Ethics are often stronger than the laws of the land. Laws are cobbled together by special interests and have little to do with right and wrong, or personal ethical codes. For most people, their own personal codes of ethics will be stronger than the laws. People are much less likely to violate their own personal ethical codes than the laws. Morals are codes of conduct put forward by a society, often
Victor inwardly becomes a monster himself." (Kain, par. 5) On the other hand, Richard III was written by William Shakespeare. It is the story of Richard who secretly desired the throne of his brother. Although Richard is unattractive and considers himself as such, he is very charismatic.

The utilitarian perspective focuses on the broad impacts of the actions, rather than just how the actions affect specific individuals (Andre & Velasquez, 2010).
