Do the terms 'ethnic cleansing' apply to Biblical events?
When my angel goes in front of you, and brings you to the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, and I blot them out, you shall not bow down to their gods, or worship them, or follow their practices, but you shall utterly demolish them and break their pillars in pieces (Exodus 23.23-24).
From this passage it seems to me that 'ethnic cleansing' can apply to biblical events.

Is the criminal justice system more concerned about the rights of the criminal and less the victim?
For the most part, yes. Constitutional protections limit the power of the state to interfere in the lives of citizens. The state interferes most when a person is charged with a crime, so people accused of crimes have rights to ensure the state doesn't abuse its power. There are no corresponding protections for victims, as people are generally victimized by other people, not the government.
What are the requirements for the state to press charges in domestic assault in Tennessee?

What is complicity to commit robbery?
Accused of stealing because you was with the person who committed the crime.
Another View: The above answer factually desribes someone who is an active ACCOMPLICE in the commission of a criminal act. 'Complicity' actually covers a wider definition.
Complicity refers to when someone is legally accountable, or can be held liable for a criminal offense, based upon the criminal act of another person.
Criminal complicity may arise in the following situations:
With the intent to promote or assist the commission of the offense:
1. a person procures, induces or causes such other person to commit the offense; or
2. a person aids or abets such other person in committing the offense; or
3. having a legal duty to prevent the commission of an offense, that person fails to make the effort he is legally required to make.

If a defendant testifies can the prosecutor ask him if he was at the crime scene?
Yes. Once the defendant takes the stand he has to answer all relevant questions.
Answer It can. When people are living in poverty they cannot get the things they need like food, medicine, and clothing and sometimes they get so desperate they will steal to get things they need. Sometimes young people growing up in poverty turn to drug dealing and stealing because they feel there is no other way for them or they have grown up in a home where it was already a way of life. Many times they don't know there are other options for them out there.
