WHERE CAN I LEARN ABOUT CRIMINAL JUSTICE/LAW?

I wish to sense all I can about Criminal Justice/Law prior to I go off to college. Is there any place I can go upon the internet which can learn me? I’m seeking for something similar to the Criminal Justice text ebook (if there is such the thing).

(I live in Massachusetts, US by the way)

Thanks the lot!

I think there is this place you can go for four years to learn things.

I heard that there is a wealth of information on something called the “Internet”. Not sure exactly what that is, but maybe you can Google it or something.

Since everyone is being snarky, I’ll add my two cents:

Go to the library. (Hey, you are planning on going to college; you’ll need to get used to libraries). You already know you want a textbook about criminal justice, so just go ask the librarian to help you find such a book. Then…. wait for it…. read it!

I agree with everybody else. Iv’e been a cop / detective / bomb technician for 20 years in California and barely know the icing on the cake. I can say that I know more than a lot of lawyers out there as evidenced by their foolish mistakes in court but that does not mean anything. I use the following government website if I don’t have the codes in front of me on my desk.

http://www.leginfo.ca.gov/calaw.html

Unfortunately for you they are all for California only. There are probably billions of code sections on this site. Only 50 years of reading and real life court experience will slightly educate you as I have found. By the way, yes I do have a college degree in the subject too. You may be able to look up your state’s laws on that site as well if it goes outside California. Good luck and always tell the truth in court.
