Using APA format and APA guidelines, compose an 8- to 10-page paper using the Argosy University online library resources to address the following: Define and discuss in detail the goals of penology theory and integrate the discussion with the overarching goal of prison management and leadership.

Officer Belle constantly receives community support, and the District Attorney's Office receives constant complaints about how long it is taking to try the inmates charged with assaulting Officer Belle.
