Hi, would someone be able to give me a mark and feedback for this essay I wrote on the topic of Crime and Deviance in AQA sociology?
I have put it in a google document as I think it's too long to post on tsr.
Thank you!

You should really post essays online because it means they will be cached by google and flagged as plagiarism by any plagiarism checking software. Obviously not an issue if it's only an essay for A-level that will be marked internally by your teacher, but any externally marked essay and all essays written at uni will likely be run through such software.

Anyways, I did study A-level Sociology and Crime and Deviance was one of the topics we were taught so I'm happy to give constructive feedback on the essay, but I can't give a mark.

I was a little worried by that, but there are other example essays online so I didn't think it would matter too much? Or is it still bad?

As I said, if it's just for an in class essay being marked by your teacher for A-level that isn't externally assessed coursework, it's fine. You should however not get into the habit of doing so because it does run the risks outlined above.

It's not that other people will copy it - it's that google has a verbatim copy of your essay recorded in their web cache. That is what turnitin and similar things check for similarity reports, so if you submitted this as formal piece of assessment (i.e. A-level coursework, or a uni assignment) it would flag up with near 100% similarity to an existing "thing" on the internet, and they would assume you plagiarised it.
