The analysis should include the following:

A short description of case

identification of the ethical issues involved (what was the alleged ethical wrong done, and why is/was it wrong?)

A statement, in their own opinion, of whether it was wrong or not, and more importantly, why?

Was the problem more a matter of individuals gone wrong, or was it more systemic and organizational?
