Justice and Honesty
Read the following passage and answer some True/False questions.
Honesty and Justice are words that describe integrity and character of an individual.
The word “honesty” by its virtue, describes an individual or an entity that doesn’t lie,
cheat, steal of abuse to get ahead for personal or professional gain. When the individual
is honest, they stand for what is right and look for a positive outcome. “Justice” is the
entity that we depend on as a country and a community to distinguish between right
and wrong, good and evil, legal and illegal.
Justice is what we depend on to keep us safe from harm to live a better life. In the
criminal justice system there are many ethical issues involved in honesty and justice.
Sometimes justice isn’t so honest and individuals make certain decisions that are not
ethical , which causes issues and problems for many people. For example, lawyers lie
or stretch the truth many times to plea their defendant’s cases by redirecting
the focus point on what the prosecution is trying to prove.
