Imagine that you have been retained by the client’s defense attorney as a death penalty mitigation expert. Your role in this capacity is to work as a sentencing advocate on behalf of your client (the defendant). In Week 5, you will prepare a comprehensive case study report. This report will contain an analysis of the psychological factors that may have contributed to the commission of the crimes in the chosen case study and how these psychological factors should be considered as a basis for a prison sentence less than the death penalty. For the purpose of this discussion, we are proceeding as if the client is still alive and has not yet been sentenced (though all of these cases have already been resolved). In your initial post of 300 words, please examine the following and address the questions below:

Tell us which client you chose and why. That is, what was it about the case that interested you?
Based upon your preliminary research on this case/client and your assigned textbook readings, what mental disorders might your client be suffering from that may have contributed to the crime?
Describe the disorder including its signs and symptoms. Connect those that you believe apply to your client’s behavior.
What does your textbook say about the likelihood that your client’s mental states contributed to the crime?
Discuss whether psychopathy, insanity, or competence to stand trial are potential issues in your client’s case based upon your preliminary research of the case and your assigned textbook readings.
Support your claims with examples from the required materials, other scholarly and/or credible sources, and properly cite any references.

Sample Solution

ms exploit people who are generally less tech savvy, resistant to change and less willing or able to go through the hassle of searching e.g. the elderly. Ofcom studies show ‘customers with landline and broadband service together pay on average 19% more after their discount deal has expired…94% of individuals can switch to faster broadbands but less than half choose to’ (Sweney, 2018).

Consumer and firm behaviour are together responsible for this strange phenomenon. While consumers may remain stubbornly loyal, for those that do wish to switch, firms respond by endogenously increasing switching costs. I illustrate the economics behind this behaviour using the Belleflame and Pietz model. Here, r, is the reservation price, x, is the distance from the consumer to the firm and pxy, is the price charged by firm x in period y. We assume customers are uniformly distributed along a unit line.

In the first period model, the consumer purchases from firm A if the inequality holds:

In a two-period model, customers that buy from firm A continue to do so with the switching cost, z, if:

Switching costs relaxes price competition between firms by creating a “dead area”, as long as price differences between rivals are not too large. This is because these exit fees can offset savings incurred by switching. However, there are also other important factors we can consider. Customer loyalty, f(l), is likely to ensure that a customer stays with the incumbent firm whilst search costs, s, makes it more expensive for customers to find better deals, thereby decreasing the proportion of people that will switch suppliers. Customers continue to buy from the same firm if:
