Include a definition of the phrase “least effort” principle in your discussion. ANSWER: Geographic profiling is an advancement in mapping that is based on the theory that all people, including criminals, have a pattern to their lives. This pattern involves, among other things, a limited geographical area that encompasses the bulk of a person’s daily activities. According to the “least effort” principle of human behavior, people travel only as far as necessary to accomplish their goals, so the most likely area for a crime is where an offender’s desire for anonymity intersects with the offender’s desire to stay within his or her comfort zone.

72. What type of items would one photograph in a laboratory? Not all investigative photography is done in the field. Sometimes objects are ANSWER: photographed in a laboratory with special equipment that is too large, delicate, or expensive to use in the field. For example, infrared film photographs can reveal the contents of unopened envelopes, bloodstains, alterations to documents, variations in types of ink, and residue near where a bullet has passed through clothing. X-ray cameras can detect loaded dice. Microphotography takes pictures through a microscope and can help identify minute particles of evidence such as hairs or fibers. In contrast, macrophotography enlarges a subject. For example, a fingerprint or a tool mark can be greatly enlarged to show the details of ridges or striations.

List four benefits of citizen online reporting. Allowing citizens to file crime reports online has the potential to increase caseload ANSWER: processing efficiency, increase patrol office effectiveness, and ease reporting delays for those jurisdictions suffering from staffing shortages or unmanageable caseloads. An additional benefit is a reduction in time and resources spent responding to and writing reports for minor incidents that often lack a suspect and are usually filed only for insurance purposes. These systems often allow the police department to e-mail a copy of the report, once approved by the agency, back to the citizen for easier, more timely submission to their insurance company. Furthermore, such systems often meet Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) requirements and can receive reports in multiple languages, features that help agencies overcome communication barriers and better serve segments of the population that have traditionally been less likely to report crime and victimization.

63. How would the writing of a report be different if a box-style format was used instead of the traditional narrative report? Many departments use box-style law enforcement report forms for certain offenses and ANSWER: incidents. “Report forms . . . contain boxes or separate category sections, e.g., property loss section, for placement of descriptive information, addresses and phone numbers of those involved. It is unnecessary to repeat this information in the narrative unless it is needed for clarity because it tends to interrupt the flow of words and clutter the narrative” (Hess and Orthmann, 2008). In contrast, narrative reports that do not use the box-style format include descriptive information, addresses, and phone numbers within the body of the narrative.

Grubbs (2006), the Supreme Court defined an anticipatory warrant as ANSWER: one “based upon an affidavit showing probable cause that at some future time (but not presently) certain evidence of crime will be located at a specified place.” An example of this might be a situation in which the police know exactly when a suspect will buy drugs and exactly where he will bring them—say, to his home. The police can ask a judge to issue an anticipatory search warrant. This will allow the police to search the suspect’s home immediately after he brings the drugs home, instead of waiting for a normal search warrant.

Trash and garbage cans in alleys and on public sidewalks are often the depository for ANSWER: evidence of thefts, drug possession, and even homicides. In California v. Greenwood (1988), the Supreme Court ruled that containers left on public property are open to search by police without a warrant and that such a search does not constitute a violation of the Fourth Amendment or a reasonable expectation of privacy: “It is common knowledge that plastic garbage bags left on a public street are readily accessible to animals, children, scavengers, snoops and other members of the public,” and therefore “no reasonable expectation of privacy” is violated by such a search. Searches of trash may also extend to the local landfill. Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

The lane-search pattern partitions the area into lanes, or narrow strips, using stakes and string. If only one officer is available for the search, the lane pattern can be adapted to what is commonly called the strip-search pattern. For an extensive search, the lane pattern is often modified to form a grid, and the area is crisscrossed. Another commonly used pattern is the circle search, which begins at the center of an area to be searched and spreads out in ever-widening concentric circles. In the zone or sector search, an area is divided into equal squares on a map of the area and each square is numbered. Search personnel are assigned to specific squares.

Searching a dead body should be done only after the coroner or medical examiner has ANSWER: arrived or given permission. Search a dead body systematically and completely. Include the immediate area around and under the body. The search usually begins with the clothing, which is likely to reveal a wallet or personal identification papers as well as trace evidence. If the body is not fingerprinted at the scene, tie paper bags securely on the hands so that fingerprinting can be done at the coroner’s laboratory. If possible, place the body in a body bag to ensure that no physical evidence is lost while it is being transported. Search the area around and beneath where the body lay immediately after it is removed. A bullet may have passed through part of the body and lodged in the floor or the dirt beneath it. Trace evidence may have fallen from the body or clothing as the body was removed. Inventory and describe all items removed from the deceased.

ANSWER:
Interior searches go from the general to the specific, usually in a circular pattern, covering all surfaces of a search area. The floor should be searched first. The search patterns used for exterior searches can be adapted for an interior crime scene: lane search; strip search; grid search; circle search; or zone/sector search. Of prime concern is searching thoroughly without destroying evidence.
An interior room search usually starts at the point of entry. The floor is searched first so no evidence is inadvertently destroyed during the remainder of the search. After the floor search, the walls—including doors and windows—and then the ceiling are searched, normally using a clockwise or counterclockwise pattern around the room. After a room is searched in one direction, it is often searched in the opposite direction because lighting is different from different angles. The same general procedures are followed in searching closets, halls, or other rooms off the main room.

61. What is the CSI Effect? ANSWER:
Hollywood’s depiction of CSI has created a glamorized, impractical image of this field in the public’s mind. This phenomenon has been called the CSI effect, which describes “the perception in the criminal justice system, popular media, and general population that consumption of crime-based television programming focusing on the forensic sciences has created a juror bias toward the requirement of forensic evidence at trial to justify a conviction” (Eatley, Hueston, & Price, 2016). In turn, these unreasonable expectations by the jurors increase the burden of proof faced by prosecutors and increase the chance of acquittal, allowing guilty defendants to go free in the absence of overwhelmingly supportive forensic evidence (Chin & Workewych, 2016).

Describe the three different types of fingerprints and explain the process of identifying and preserving each type. Latent fingerprints are impressions transferred to a surface, either by sweat on the ridges ANSWER: of the fingers or because the fingers carry residue of oil, dirt, blood, or other substances. Latent prints are not readily seen but can be developed through powders or chemicals. They are normally left on nonporous surfaces. Visible fingerprints are made when fingers are dirty or stained. They occur primarily on glossy or light-colored surfaces and can be dusted and lifted. Plastic fingerprints, one form of visible print, are impressions left in soft substances such as putty, grease, tar, butter, or soft soap. These prints are photographed, not dusted.

66. List and describe the evidence that would be most helpful in showing that a specific person was at a scene. Probabilities play a large role in determining the value of evidence. Fingerprints and DNA, ANSWER: for example, provide positive identification. In contrast, blood type does not provide positive identification, but it can help eliminate a person as a suspect. An object’s individuality is also important. For example, a heel mark’s value is directly proportional to the number of its specific features, such as brand name, number of nails, and individual wear patterns that can be identified. Some objects have identification marks on them. Other evidence requires a comparison to be of value—a tire impression matching a tire, a bullet matching a specific revolver, or a torn piece of clothing matching a shirt.

59. How are foreign nationals to be treated when under detention or arrest, and why? Officers who want to interrogate a person claiming diplomatic immunity should request ANSWER: the diplomatic identification and check the reverse of the card. A general guideline is to treat foreign nationals and diplomats as you would want Americans to be treated under similar circumstances abroad. Partly because of concern that foreign nationals charged with crimes in the United States will not fully understand their rights within the complex U.S. legal system, the Vienna Convention Treaty, signed in 1963, gives foreign nationals the right to contact their consulate in the event of their detention or arrest. Another treaty signed in 1972 provides diplomatic immunity for certain individuals.

Interrogation techniques include inquiring directly or indirectly, forcing responses, ANSWER: deflating or inflating the ego, minimizing or maximizing the crime, projecting the blame, rationalizing, and combining approaches. Indirect inquiry draws out information without mentioning the main subject. A forced response is elicited by asking a question that will implicate the suspect, regardless of the answer given.

Deflating suspects’ egos is often effective. Question the suspect’s skill in committing a crime known to be his specialty. The suspect may attempt—out of pride—to prove that it was a professional job. The same results can be obtained by inflating suspects’ egos, praising the skill shown in pulling off the job. Suspects may want to take the credit and admit their role in the crime. Overstating the severity of an offense can be as effective as understating it. Making the offense more serious than it actually is can induce suspects to provide facts implicating them in lesser offenses. Projecting blame onto others is another effective way to get suspects talking. When suspects feel as if others are at fault, they may be more willing to share information that will ultimately incriminate them. Rationalizing is another technique that shifts fault away from a suspect. Even though the suspect committed the act, there was a good reason to justify it.

short of a full confession. A confession is information supporting the elements of a crime given by a person involved in committing it. It can be oral or written and must be voluntary and not given in response to threats, promises, or rewards. It can be taken in question and answer form or in a narrative handwritten by the suspect or the interrogator. A confession, oral or handwritten, must be given of the suspect’s free will and not in response to fear, threats, promises, or rewards. An adoptive admission occurs when someone else makes a statement in a person’s presence and under circumstances where it would be logical to expect the person to make a denial if the statement falsely implicated him, but he does not deny the allegations.

The polygraph scientifically measures respiration and depth of breathing, as well as cha changes in the skins electrical resistance, blood pressure, and pulse rate. It is important to note, however, that the polygraph is an instrument used in questioning. Although the results are not presently admissible in court, any confession obtained as a result of a polygraph test is admissible in court.

for thorough review. Cases that meet these criteria are normally cases involving violence or when loss of memory or ability to recall is involved and all other investigative efforts have been exhausted. Hypnosis psychically induces a trance like condition in which the person loses consciousness, but responds to the hypnotists suggestions. Courts have established guidelines for this, including that a trained professional perform the session and that that person is independent of the prosecution. Truth serums are fast acting Truth serums are fast-acting barbiturates of the type used to produce sleep at the approximate level of surgical anesthesia. The theory is that the drug removes people’s inhibitions so that they are more likely to tell the truth. In the past, scopolamine and hyoscine were the most used drugs, but sodium amatol and sodium pentothal are more commonly used today. Truth serums are not used extensively by the police because the accuracy of the information obtained with them is questionable. Truth serum is administered by a physician, preferably a psychiatrist, who remains to monitor the person’s condition while the questions are asked. The courts do not officially recognize truth serums or their reliability, nor do they admit the results as evidence.

63. Outline some of the suggestions discussed in the text for officers who are preparing to go undercover. Recommendations and precautions for undercover agents include: ANSWER: • • • • • •
Adopt credible aliases. Keep your real first name and date of birth. Whether you’re going to “carry” or not may be a matter of personal preference or an issue your agency addresses. Choose your “garb” based on your assignment. The primary objective is to fit in with your target group. Avoid the draw of the street, which can be overwhelming and even addicting. Although many undercover operations require you to appear alone, always have backup within eye or earshot, either via wire or through direct visual contact. Remember who you are. Nothing is worth compromising your integrity as a police officer (Grossi, 2009).
Additional precautions include: • • • •
Write no notes the subject can read. It is vital that undercover investigators keep accurate notes during their investigation, yet they must not allow the subject to be aware of such documentation. Carry no identification other than the cover ID. Ensure that any communication with headquarters is covert. Do not suggest, plan, initiate, or participate in criminal activity.

Precautions to take when conducting a raid: ANSWER: • • • • •
POINTS: REFERENCES:
Ensure that the raid is legal (for example, that warrants are signed and legal). Plan carefully (know escape routes, suspect’s history of violence, possible weapons at the site, suspect’s gang connections, etc.). Assign adequate personnel and equipment. Thoroughly brief every member of the raiding party. Be aware of the possibility of surreptitious surveillance devices or booby traps at the raid site.
In addition, make sure you have the correct location, that the right people you are after are present at the location, and that you have established a tight perimeter, allowing a safe and secure zone to conduct the raid. Many agencies use their local SWAT units to make the initial entry as raids are inherently dangerous. Medical units may be on standby. Remember that any use of force will have to be justified and documented. 1 Raids

Consider including a discussion of relevant Supreme Court rulings in your answer. The Supreme Court has ruled on the conditions in three cases: ANSWER: James v. Louisiana (1965): “A search can be ‘incident to an arrest’ only if it is substantially contemporaneous with the arrest and is confined to the immediate vicinity of the arrest.” Shipley v. California (1969): “The Constitution has never been construed by this Court to allow the police in the absence of an emergency to arrest a person outside his home and then take him inside for the purpose of conducting a warrantless search.” Vale v. Louisiana (1970): “If a search of a house is to be upheld as incident to arrest, that arrest must take place inside the house. We decline to hold that an arrest on the street can provide its own exigent circumstance so as to justify a warrantless search of the arrestee’s house.”
POINTS: REFERENCES: QUESTION TYPE: HAS VARIABLES:
Police do, however, have a right to maintain control over a suspect once he is arrested. If the suspect is arrested outside his home and requests an opportunity to go back inside temporarily (such as to obtain bail money or ID, to get a jacket, or tell his family of his predicament), he is giving police implied consent to accompany him inside. If officers then see contraband or evidence in plain view, they have a right to seize it. 1 Legal Arrests Essay False

Arrested individuals should be advised of their constitutional rights when they are in a ANSWER: custodial setting, that is, not free to leave, and when they are being interrogated about a specific crime where their answers may incriminate them. Note that just because individuals are arrested, they need not always be Mirandized. They only need to be Mirandized if the police want to question them while they are in a custodial setting and when their answers could be incriminating. In other words, a person arrested for committing a crime in an officer’s presence, such as driving while intoxicated, would not have to be necessarily Mirandized.

In some departments, it is common practice to take a suspect who is not under arrest to ANSWER: the department for questioning. If bringing someone in for questioning appears to be an arrest without probable cause, even if the suspect is not told they are under arrest, and even if the officers do not personally consider them to be under arrest, the courts are likely to rule that the officers have, in effect, made an illegal de facto arrest. As a result, the courts will suppress any evidence so obtained. At minimum, the Supreme Court has ruled four times that if police take someone involuntarily to a police facility for investigation, this will be considered a de facto arrest.

Briefly outline some of the options available to an officer for controlling someone using nonlethal force. Whether they are called less-than-lethal, less-lethal, or nonlethal weapons, their intent is ANSWER: to avoid the use of deadly force. The most commonly used restraint is handcuffs. Aerosols can also be used; pepper spray is considered by many to be the single most significant resistance-control and injury-reduction tool in law enforcement history. Impact munitions are specially designed projectiles that are made to strike a subject’s body causing nonlethal blunt trauma and incapacitation. Controlled Electronic Devices (CEDs) are also called ECDs. These handheld devices operate by causing neuro-muscular incapacitation (NMI) resulting in a subject’s loss of motor function and, usually, consequent collapse to the ground. Perhaps the best-known and most controversial lesslethal weapon is the TASER. Other less-lethal options include capture nets, which have been an alternative for subduing combative suspects for decades. A modern version of such a capture net is the Super Talon™ net gun.

Contributing factors in police suicides, as with other victims of suicide, are alcohol, family ANSWER: issues, and the breakup of relationships. The public’s image of the police, and indeed officers’ image of themselves, is that of the strong protector of society. Yet police work forces officers to confront the dark side of human nature daily and may eventually cause officers to lose their faith in the goodness of humanity or in their abilities to make a positive impact on the lives of others. This sense of weakness and failure is so contradictory to the image of the police that some officers may simply see no other choice than to “take themselves out of the game.” POINTS: 1 REFERENCES: Suicide QUESTION TYPE: Essay HAS VARIABLES: False STUDENT ENTRY MODE: Basic LEARNING OBJECTIVES: CRIM.HESS.17.08.07 - List the signs commonly looked for during the preliminary investigation of a homicide to determine that death has occurred.

West Virginia (1999), and how it relates to searches at homicide scenes. ANSWER: In Flippo v. West Virginia (1999), the Supreme Court held that police may make warrantless entries onto premises where they reasonably believe a person is in need of immediate aid, or police may make a prompt warrantless search of a homicide scene for other victims or a killer on the premises. However, the Court specifically rejected the idea that there is any general “murder scene exception” to the search warrant requirement of the Fourth Amendment. In effect, without exigent circumstances, the police would have to get a search warrant to search for evidence after the emergency is over.

Expressive violence is that stemming from hurt feelings, anger, or rage, such as when the jealous lover stabs her ex- boyfriend while he’s on a date with his new girlfriend. In these cases, the VOR is close and established. Instrumental violence is goal-directed predatory behavior used to exert control; for example, a carjacker shoots his victim before stealing the vehicle.

ANSWER: In homicides, defense wounds—cuts on the hands, arms, and legs—result when the victim attempts to ward off the attacker. Cutting wounds are frequently the result of suicide. It is common in such cases to observe hesitation wounds in areas where the main wound occurs. These less severe, superficial cutting marks are caused by attempts to build up enough nerve to make the fatal wound. Suicidal cutting wounds are made at an angle related to the hand that held the weapon, generally in a downward direction because of the natural pull of the arm as it is brought across the body.

73. How can police departments address homicide proactively? More and more, homicide is viewed as part of a larger, more general problem— violence. ANSWER: Results of numerous studies of police departments across the country that have implemented community policing support the theory that greater community involvement and a shift in policing philosophy to one that emphasizes proactive problem solving can reduce overall levels of violence within a community. One strategy being used is CompStat, which uses computer software to perform statistical analysis of crime data and target geographic areas throughout the city that have high levels of violent crime. By focusing law resources and efforts on those areas, law enforcement is able to effect greater change and have a more positive impact. Other departments are implementing early intervention programs to keep small issues from growing into bigger, more violent events.

Compare and contrast the use of mandatory arrest policies for domestic abuse with alternatives to arrest policies. What have studies found in comparing the two issues? Studies have found that alternatives to arrest may be better in specific circumstances. ANSWER: Arrest can backfire, and mandatory arrest laws can actually compound the domestic violence problem rather than alleviate it. One study found that although households in states with mandatory arrest laws are less likely to experience spousal violence, police in these same states are also less likely to discover such abuse. Mandatory arrest laws may keep people from calling the police.

domestic violence was considered a family matter to be handled privately. The police were rarely, if ever, summoned to intervene. During the 1970s and 1980s, police made arrests in only 7 to 15 percent of the intimate partner violence cases to which they were called; however, by 2000, approximately 50 percent of domestic violence cases resulted in arrests.

In Massachusetts, a new law requires an offender who violates a domestic order of ANSWER: protection to wear a global positioning system (GPS) monitoring device. “The GPS helps enforce the restraining order by preventing the batterer from entering ‘liberty zones,’ such as the battered partner’s domicile and place of work, their children’s schools and the residences of extended family members. Probation agents will monitor offenders to ensure that they do not breach these zones. If they do, a record of a restraining order violation will be made, thus making stalking and further violent attacks more difficult. Further, police and the victim are automatically phoned if the offender breaches the battered partner’s liberty zone, thus minimizing the victim’s fears of an unexpected confrontation” (Healy & Barrios, 2007).

her estate. A relative or caregiver isolates the elder, makes excuses when friends or family call or visit, and does not give the elder messages. A relative or caregiver gives implausible explanations about finances, and the elder is unaware of or unable to explain the arrangements made. Checking account and credit card statements are sent to a relative or caregiver and are not accessible to the elder. At the bank, the elder is accompanied by a relative or caregiver who refuses to let the elder speak for himself or herself, and/or the elder appears nervous or afraid of the person accompanying him or her. The elder is concerned or confused about “missing money.” There are suspicious signatures on the elder’s checks, or the elder signs checks and another party fills in the payee and amount sections. There is an unusual amount of banking activity, particularly just after joint accounts are set up or someone new starts helping with the elder’s finances. A will, power of attorney, or other legal document is drafted, but the elder does not understand its implications.

ANSWER: First of all, determining the prevalence of elder abuse is a challenge because of the lack of data, a problem compounded by a reluctance to report the crime. Some elderly individuals are physically incapable of providing information or may be suffering from conditions such as senility or Alzheimer’s disease that might cause others not to believe their statements. In other cases, victims may fear further abuse or loss of the care of the only provider they have, or they may be embarrassed that their child could mistreat them. Persons of older generations and from other cultures often consider such abuse to be a private family matter, something that is not talked about and is certainly never reported to the police.

Smuggling occurs when someone is paid to assist another in the illegal crossing of borders. ANSWER: This relationship typically ends after the border has been crossed and the individual has paid the smuggler a fee for assistance. If the smuggler sells or “brokers” the smuggled individual into a condition of servitude, or if the smuggled individual cannot pay the smuggler and is then forced to work that debt off, the crime has now turned from smuggling into human trafficking. A person may choose and arrange to be smuggled into a country, but when an individual is forced into a situation of exploitation where their freedom is taken way, the person is then a victim of human trafficking. Central to the distinction is the denial of the victim’s liberty. An individual’s willingness to be smuggled into another country does not minimize the victimization he or she may experience at the hands of a trafficker. Copyright Cengage Learning.

Discuss how national estimates of sexual assault victimization, using data sources such as the UCR and NCVS, fail to capture sexual assault victimization fully in the US. National estimates present a murky view of the number of sexual assault victims. The ANSWER: victimization figures reported by different sources seldom concur, a situation that is recognized as occurring with other types of offenses besides rape. Specifically, the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports (UCR) capture only those incidents reported to police, whereas the National Crime Victimization Study (NCVS) captures both reported and unreported events. A more troublesome complication is that some of the reporting instruments capture data pertaining only to sexual assaults of females.

Officers should inform emergency medical technicians and emergency room (ER) personnel that a date rape drug is suspected. Blood and urine tests may show the presence of a specific drug.

Why is it used, and how effective or ineffective has it been? What are the benefits and drawbacks of this procedure? Blind reporting allows sexual assault victims to retain their anonymity and confidentiality ANSWER: while sharing critical information with law enforcement. It also permits victims to gather legal information from law enforcement without having to commit immediately to an investigation. Not all jurisdictions allow it, as the legal acceptability of blind reporting varies from state to state, and even from county to county. In jurisdictions where prosecutors accept blind report records, such records become the “founding document” in the formal sexual assault investigation should the victim decide to file a complaint and proceed with a full investigation. However, it can cause problems because of the anonymity of the victim, and because it must be maintained separate and confidential from other cases. Obviously, eventually the victim will have to be identified if prosecution continues. POINTS: 1 REFERENCES: Blind Reporting Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

Defendants usually want a jury trial because of present laws and attitudes regarding rape ANSWER: and because the defendant is not required to testify. However, the victim must relate a very difficult ordeal and be subjected to cross-examination that can make them appear to be the one on trial. Juries tend to be unsympathetic with a victim who was drinking heavily, hitchhiking or using drugs, or who left a bar with a stranger or engaged in other socially “unacceptable” actions.

What is the rationale behind such legislation? Have the courts generally upheld such measures? Sex offender civil commitment (SOCC) has been enacted in 20 states. Such legislation ANSWER: acknowledges that although sex offenders may have paid a debt to society by spending time behind bars, often little if anything is accomplished during this incarceration to address and treat the disorders that lead offenders to commit sexual assault. Although many contend that these acts violate offenders’ civil rights, the Supreme Court has upheld the constitutionality of at least one state’s civil commitment law. In Kansas v. Hendricks (1997), the Court upheld Kansas’s Sexually Violent Predator Act, which establishes procedures by which that state may civilly commit to a mental hospital people likely to commit predatory acts of sexual violence due to a mental abnormality or personality disorder. In Kansas v. Crane (2002), it refined the limitations in Hendricks, adding a new limitation on such civil commitments, saying that there must be “proof of [an offender’s] serious difficulty in controlling [his] behavior.” Still, many feel it is controversial, especially offenders, who believe they have served their debt to society after being incarcerated.

Many newer laws make it very explicit that the victim’s behavior (drinking heavily, ANSWER: hitchhiking or using drugs, leaving a bar with a stranger or engaging on other socially “unacceptable” actions) is not to be considered during the trial. Newer laws also state that the victim’s testimony need not be corroborated and that testimony about the degree of resistance—although it may be admitted—is not required. Moreover, testimony about the victim’s previous sexual conduct is inadmissible except in certain situations. Many recent laws have reduced the penalties for sexual assault, which should lead to more convictions. Former penalties were so severe that many juries hesitated to convict.

ANSWER: It is increasingly difficult to keep tabs on sex offenders as they move from jurisdiction to jurisdiction, changing their names and appearances along the way. People who advocate sex offender registration and notification cite the significant number of sex offenders under community supervision, the fear of recidivism, and the protection of children and their families. The challenge is to balance the communities’ rights to access public information with the protections provided to convicted offenders. The three basic objections to notification laws center around punishment, privacy, and due process issues. Some offenders claim that registering subjects them to additional punishment. However, in April 1998, the Supreme Court rejected constitutional challenges that claimed that the laws’ notification requirements represented an unconstitutional added punishment. Another concern of opponents is that notification will lead to harassment of offenders and increased acts of vigilantism. However, Internet access is quickly revolutionizing the way the public keeps informed of the whereabouts of convicted sex offenders. In many jurisdictions residents are now able to access a registry online, enter their zip codes, and obtain information on sex offenders living in their area.

Habitual child sex abusers, whether they operate as loners or as part of a sex ring, have ANSWER: been classified into three types. First is the misoped, the person who hates children, has sex with them, and then brutally destroys them. The second type is the hebephile, a person who selects high school-age youths as his or her sex victims. The third and most common habitual child sex abuser is the pedophile, sometimes referred to as a chicken hawk, an adult who has either heterosexual or homosexual preferences for young boys or girls of a specific, limited age range. Although pedophiles are typically male, this is not always the case. Women are also involved in the sexual abuse of children.

Court procedures and legal practices that benefit the child witness may not be balanced ANSWER: with the rights of the accused, and vice versa. To resolve some of these problems, the courts have changed a number of rules and procedures: • • • •
Some courts give preference to these cases by placing them ahead of other cases on the docket. Some courts permit videotaping child interviews and then providing access to the tapes to numerous individuals to spare the child the added trauma of multiple interviews. Courts are limiting privileges for repeated medical and psychological examinations of children. To reduce the number of times the child must face the accused, the courts are allowing testimony concerning observations of the child by another person who is not a witness, allowing the child to remain in another room during the trial, or using a videotape of the child’s testimony as evidence.

In reality, to resolve a hostage situation successfully, both teams—special weapons and ANSWER: tactics (SWAT) teams and crisis negotiation teams (CNTs)—must often work together. A successful hostage-incident outcome is not possible without a well-coordinated strategy. The negotiator should have street knowledge and experience with hostage incidents.

The number of bank robberies has increased with the number of branch banks, many of ANSWER: which are housed in storefront offices and outlying shopping centers, thus providing quick entrance to and exit from the robbery scene. Most banks have surveillance cameras that might catch a robbery on tape. However, the video quality is often substandard and can be rendered useless by improper placement of equipment. Adding clerks is not necessarily a deterrent because a person with a gun has the advantage regardless of the number of clerks. Adding bulletproof glass around the cashier may increase the incidence of hostage taking. This problem has been reduced in some banks by enclosing and securing the bank’s administrative areas. Other deterrents to bank robberies involve the use of bait money and dye packs, required by federal banking regulations for federally insured financial institutions. Bait money is U.S. currency with recorded serial numbers placed at each teller position. A dye pack is a bundle of currency containing a colored dye and tear gas. Taken during a robbery, it is activated when the robber crosses an electromagnetic field at the facility’s exit, releasing the brightly colored dye that stains the money and emits a cloud of colored smoke.

The general public tends to use the term robbery interchangeably with burglary, larceny, ANSWER: and theft. However, robbery, burglary, and larceny/theft are three distinct crimes, with specific elements that distinguish them from each other. Robbery is the felonious taking of another’s property, either directly from the person or in that person’s presence, through force or intimidation. A burglary, by contrast, is an unlawful entry of a structure to commit a crime. Robbery differs from burglary in that robbers confront their victims, whereas burglars seek to remain unseen. Robbery is a crime against a person, burglary is a crime against property. Larceny/theft is the unlawful taking of property from the possession of another. Like burglary, it is a crime against property but it does not require unlawful entry. In other words, the thief can be on the premises legally, such as an employee at work or a shopper in a store, but then unlawfully takes something that does not belong to them. Although there may be contact between the victim and the suspect, larceny/theft differs from robbery in that no force or threat of force is involved.

Hostage situations may last for less than an hour or for more than 40 hours; the average length is approximately 12 hours.

63. Why is the technology of ALPR so important in the investigation of robbery cases? ALPR can be of great assistance in identifying a stolen vehicle that might be serving as a ANSWER: getaway car. According to Molnar (2007), “As the system reads a license plate, it compares the plate to the database. If it makes a hit, it alerts the operator. The addition of a separate color camera allows the capture of vehicle description, make, model, color, damage, unique characteristics, etc. to the database. In other words, ALPR can provide a complete picture of the vehicle, not just the plate.” If police could check every license plate within the containment circle to see whether it was on a stolen car, and then accumulate that information, they might identify serial robbers.

Robbery usually leaves victims and witnesses feeling vulnerable and fearful, making it ANSWER: difficult for them to give accurate descriptions and details of what occurred.

The growing problem of false alarms has led many departments to implement policies on ANSWER: how to handle such nuisance calls. Some law enforcement agencies have implemented a verified response policy, meaning that they will not respond to a burglary alarm unless criminal activity is first confirmed through either an onsite security officer, verbal communication with a resident or employee onsite, or some other method of electronic surveillance. An aggressive form of verified response is Enhanced Call Verification (ECV), which requires that a minimum of two phone calls be made from the alarm monitoring center, to assess whether user error activated the alarm. Only then will a law enforcement response be activated. According to one source, “Those departments who have adopted verified response policies have seen their police dispatch rates drop an average of 72 percent, freeing officers’ time for higher priority duties” (Careless, 2007b).

Officers should proceed to a burglary scene quietly. They should be observant and cautious ANSWER: at the scene. The first two officers arriving place themselves at diagonally opposed corners of the building. This places each out of the other’s line of fire but in position to protect each other. Officers should search the premises inside and outside for the burglar, using maximum cover and caution in going around corners. In a dark room, they should use a flashlight rather than room lights to prevent silhouettes, holding the flashlight in front of the body at a 45-degree angle. Guns should be drawn but not cocked. And finally, officers should be alert for the possible presence of explosives at a burglary scene.

63. Choose two methods of entering a safe and describe the process and tools involved. Safes and vaults can be entered illegally by various means, including punching, peeling, ANSWER: chopping, pulling or dragging, blowing, and burning. Sometimes burglars simply haul the safes away. In punching, the dial is sheared from the safe door by a downward blow with a sledge or by holding a chisel to the dial and using a sledge to knock it off, exposing the safe mechanism spindle. In peeling, the burglar drills a hole in a corner of the safe and then makes this hole successively larger by using other drills until the narrow end of a jimmy can be inserted in the hole to pry the door partially open. In chopping, the burglar uses a sledge and chisels or a heavy chopping instrument, such as an axe, to chop a hole in the bottom of the safe large enough to remove the contents. In pulling, also called dragging, the burglar inserts a V plate over the dial, with the V in place behind the dial. The burglar then tightens the screw bolts one at a time until the dial and the spindle are pulled out. In blowing, the burglar drills a hole in the safe near the locking bar area or pushes cotton into an area of the safe door crack and puts nitroglycerin on the cotton. The burglar then places a primer cap against the cotton, tapes it in place, and runs a wire to a protected area. Mattresses and blankets are often used to soften the blast. The burglar ignites the nitroglycerin, which blows the safe open. The process of burning often uses a “burning bar,” a portable safecracking tool that burns a hole into the safe to gain entry. This hole may be burned near the safe’s locking mechanism, or the safe may be tipped over and the hole burned through the bottom.

65. Identify methods used by burglars to gain entry into structures. Burglary is a crime of opportunity and concealment. Entry is made in areas of a structure ANSWER: not normally observed, under the cover of darkness, in covered entryways, through windows screened by shrubbery or trees, or through ruse and trickery. Sometimes, however, the burglar breaks a shop window, removes some items on display, and rapidly escapes by jumping into a nearby vehicle driven by an accomplice. Almost every means imaginable has been used by burglars to gain entry, including tunneling, chopping holes in walls, floors, and ceilings, and using fire escapes. Tool marks, disturbed paint, footprints and fingerprints, broken glass, or forced locks help determine how the burglar gained entry.

Noting the high recidivism rates of property crime offenders, that their crimes and violence often escalate, and that many property crime cases go unsolved, the National Institute of Justice (NIJ) has advocated collecting DNA evidence in “minor” crime investigations as a way to yield major public safety benefits.

Target hardening, also called crime prevention through environmental design (CPTED), ANSWER: involves altering physical characteristics of the property to make it less attractive to criminals. CPTED measures include removing dense shrubbery next to windows and doors because this provides concealment to burglars and increases the attractiveness of the target. High privacy fences around homes also give cover to people attempting to break in. Inadequate lighting increases the attractiveness of a property to burglars.

61. Describe some of the investigative challenges of cargo thefts and “leakage.” One challenge is the mobile nature of the crime. Numerous jurisdictions around the ANSWER: country, particularly those close to major seaports and cargo distribution hubs, have developed cargo theft task forces to increase their effectiveness in conducting investigations. In the absence of a task force, experts recommend that an investigator work a cargo theft case backward, from the point of recovery to the initial loading of the product. The success of these units has demonstrated that the surveillance and investigative abilities of a multijurisdictional team surpass those of any single agency. Provisions in the law reauthorizing the USA PATRIOT Act may help overcome this challenge by designating a Uniform Crime Report code specifically for cargo theft and requiring the establishment of a national cargo theft database.

A confidence game obtains money or property by a trick, device, or swindle that takes ANSWER: advantage of a victim’s trust in the swindler. Two basic approaches are used in con games: the short con and the long con. Short-con games take the victims for whatever money they have with them at the time of the action. For example, three-card monte, similar to the old shell game, entices victims to bet on whether they can select one card from among three. “Huge Duke” involves betting on a stacked poker hand, with the victim dealing the final hand. “The Wipe” involves tying money into a handkerchief for safekeeping and then switching it with one containing newspaper bits. Long-con games are usually for higher stakes. For example, in “The Wire,” the original Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

The basic process of laundering money begins with placement of the funds into the ANSWER: legitimate U.S. market. Common methods of placement include creating shell corporations or fake cash-intensive businesses and smurfing, more technically known as structuring, whereby large amounts of cash are broken into increments less than $10,000, to avoid federal reporting requirements, and deposited into various bank accounts. The second step in the laundering process is layering, through which the money is cleaned by moving it around through a series of elaborate transactions, often involving offshore bank accounts and international business companies (IBCs). These multiple, complex transactions aim to obscure the connection between the money and the criminal group and to continue until the organization feels confident the money is adequately clean. The third and final step in the money laundering cycle is integration, where criminals repatriate their money through seemingly legitimate business transactions. For example, the launderer creates a bogus export company in a free trade zone and a bogus import company owned through an IBC in a different country. A trading relationship is established where the exporter sends nonexistent goods or goods invoiced at greatly inflated prices to the importer, who pays the exporter in cleaned money, thus completing the laundry cycle.

55. What types of information can you learn from a VIN, and how would this information verify that the VIN on the car belongs to the car you are examining? The most important means of vehicle identification is the vehicle identification number ANSWER: (VIN). The VIN is the primary nonduplicated, serialized number assigned by a manufacturer to each vehicle made. This number—critical in motor vehicle theft investigation—identifies the specific vehicle in question. Each digit in a VIN tells specific information, such as nation of origin, manufacturer symbol, make, restraint, car line, body type, engine symbol, check digit, model year, assembly plant, and sequential production number. The information given in the VIN’s digits can be compared to the car you are examining.

In 1919 the need for federal control of motor vehicle theft was recognized, and Congress ANSWER: approved the National Motor Vehicle Theft Act, commonly known as the Dyer Act. The Dyer Act made interstate transportation of a stolen motor vehicle a federal crime and allowed for federal help in prosecuting such cases. The act was amended in 1945 to include aircraft and is now called the Interstate Transportation of Stolen Motor Vehicles Act. Since the Dyer Act was passed, more than 300,000 vehicles have been recovered and more than 100,000 criminals have been convicted in interstate car theft cases.

60. Explain how vehicle cloning is carried out, who the typical perpetrators are, and how this crime may be linked to other crimes. The NICB describes vehicle cloning as a crime in which stolen vehicles assume the ANSWER: identity of legally owned, or “non-stolen,” vehicles of a similar make and model. Criminals apply counterfeit labels, plates, stickers, and titles to these stolen cars, making them appear legitimate. The non-stolen vehicles can be actively registered or titled in another state or country, resulting in multiple vehicles having the same VIN being simultaneously registered or titled—but, of course, only the non-stolen vehicles are legitimate. The rest are fakes, or clones. The first step in the cloning process is to copy a VIN from a legally owned car. Then the criminal steals a vehicle similar to the one from which the VIN had been lifted. The stolen vehicle’s legitimate VIN is replaced with a counterfeit one, making the stolen vehicle a clone of the legally owned original vehicle. The criminal then creates counterfeit ownership documents and sells the stolen vehicle to an innocent buyer. High-end luxury cars are the usual targets of cloning. Cadillac Escalades, Lexus RX 300s, and BMW 5 Series are among the models most widely reported by local detectives. Vehicle cloning is typically committed by organized rings of professional vehicle thieves and fraud artists.

investigation of a motor vehicle theft, further checks can be made in the FBI’s National Crime Information Center (NCIC) files to determine whether the vehicle is stolen and whether the driver has a criminal record. The FBI and the National Insurance Crime Bureau (NICB) provide valuable help in investigating motor vehicle thefts. The FBI assists local and state authorities who notify the bureau that a stolen motor vehicle or aircraft has been transported interstate—which places it within the provisions of the Interstate Transportation of Stolen Motor Vehicles Act. The National Auto Theft Bureau was incorporated into the NICB, and this organization helps law enforcement agencies reduce and prevent auto thefts and investigate questionable or fraudulent vehicle fires and thefts. The NICB also disseminates reports on stolen vehicles to law enforcement agencies and serves as a clearinghouse for information on stolen vehicles.

How does this relate to the elements of the crime? Although referred to as “motor vehicle theft,” most of these crimes are prosecuted as ANSWER: “unauthorized use of a motor vehicle” because a charge of theft requires proof that the thief intended to deprive the owner of the vehicle permanently, which is often difficult to establish.

Use and Location: • •
Equipment in an unsecured location that has not been moved for some time— either by repeat observation or the age of the tracks leading to the equipment The type of equipment does not suit the location or use—such as construction equipment on a farm or in a residential area with no building activity
Equipment and Markings: • • • •
Equipment with missing Product Identification Number (PIN) plates Manufacturers generally use mounting techniques that make it unlikely for a PIN plate to fall off during normal use. Equipment that has been entirely repainted or that has decals removed or painted over Manufacturer decals or model number stickers do not match the piece of equipment to which they are affixed.

What are some of the primary concerns, and what technological innovations have been employed to prevent the theft of patrol cars? Police vehicles are also vulnerable to thieves. About the only police vehicle that appears to ANSWER: be immune from theft is a K-9 vehicle. A stolen unit driven by a fleeing felon might run down civilians, practically guaranteeing that the department will be sued. In addition, police cars grant the drivers access to high-security areas, so terrorists would jump at the chance to obtain one. Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

Technology offers some solutions to prevent the theft of police cars. One solution is a brake-light kill switch. With the brake lights cut off, the car will not come out of park even when running. Another solution is a secure-idle system in which an officer presses a button, places the transmission in park, turns the key to the normal off position, and removes the key. The engine keeps running and all accessories remain on, but any unauthorized attempt to step on the brake or move the shift lever out of park cuts all electrical power. This system can also trigger an optional alarm. The system is deactivated by putting the key back into the ignition and turning it to the on position.

POINTS: REFERENCES:
The National Equipment Register (NER) notes that heavy equipment theft is a growing problem, with approximately 11,493 heavy equipment thefts reported in 2015, including backhoes, bulldozers, and dump trucks. Most of the thefts were committed by organized crime rings, which often had targeted equipment shopping lists. Many of the rings are international, filling equipment needs in underdeveloped countries. The NER website notes that rubber-tired equipment is most likely to be stolen because it can be driven away under its own power. The most popular targets are skid steers, backhoes, and dump trucks. 1 Thefts of Trucks, Construction Vehicles, Aircraft, and Other Motorized Vehicles

observe their behavior. Watch for signs of nervousness, hesitancy in answers, extreme politeness, and indications that the driver does not know the vehicle. request the driver’s license and the vehicle registration papers for identification. examine the driver’s license and ask for the driver’s birth date. The driver will probably not know the correct date unless it is his or her license. compare the description on the license with the person. compare the state of issuance of the license with the car’s license plates. ask the driver to sign his or her name and compare the signature with that on the driver’s license. ask the driver the year, make, and model of the car and compare the answers with the registration papers. ask the mileage. The driver of a stolen car rarely knows the mileage, whereas the owner or regular driver knows within a reasonable number of miles. ask the driver to describe the contents of the car’s trunk and glove compartment.

The routine activity approach to crime suggests that the daily, routine activities of ANSWER: populations influence the availability of targets of crime. The existence of potential offenders, suitable targets, and lack of guardianship explains variation in the rate of motor vehicle theft. For example, research indicates that city blocks with bars have almost twice as many auto thefts as do city blocks without bars and that blocks adjacent to high schools have higher levels of auto theft than do blocks that are not near high schools. In addition, parking lots with attendants have lower rates of auto theft than do similar lots with no attendants on duty. Such findings might be used in designing auto theft prevention programs such as using bait cars. Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

New York City has instituted the Combat Auto Theft (CAT) program, which has been highly successful. Participating car owners sign a form indicating that they do not normally operate their automobiles between 1 A.M. and 5 A.M., the peak auto-theft hours. They also sign a consent form that authorizes the police to stop their vehicle during these hours without probable cause. Owners are given a CAT program decal to affix prominently on the inside of the car’s rear window. Officers may stop any car having the decal, without probable cause, if they see it traveling on city streets between 1 A.M. and 5 A.M. Virginia’s Help Eliminate Auto Theft (HEAT) program offers as much as $25,000 for information leading to the arrest and trial of suspected auto theft, theft of vehicle parts, or chop shop operations. Tips called in to the program’s toll-free number or submitted online are monitored by the Virginia State Police Criminal Investigation Section.

KEYWORDS: Bloom’s: Apply DATE CREATED: 3/28/2022 1:07 AM DATE MODIFIED: 3/28/2022 1:08 AM 60. Describe the various classifications of arson. Fires are classified as natural, accidental, incendiary (arson), or of undetermined origin. A ANSWER: natural fire is one caused without direct human action or intervention, such as fires caused by lightning, earthquakes, and other natural events. This category may also include fires set intentionally to destroy refuse, weeds, or waste products in industrial processes or to provide warmth. It is easy to determine that such fires are natural. An accidental fire, as the name implies, is not intentional. Fires can be accidentally ignited by faulty wiring, leaking gas, a carelessly tossed cigarette, overheated Christmas tree lights, children playing with matches, and many other causes. An incendiary fire (arson) is ignited intentionally and maliciously under circumstances in which the person knows that the fire should not be set. Such fires are often started to destroy property or buildings. A fire of undetermined origin is one in which there is no evidence to indicate whether the fire was natural, accidental, or incendiary. The cause simply cannot be proven to an acceptable level of certainty.

Areas of uneven burning can indicate the presence of an incendiary or that a great amount ANSWER: of flammable material was present at the scene. While burn patterns may be the most readily available data for determining a fire’s point of origin, investigators are cautioned to not assume that the fire at the origin burned the longest and that, therefore, a fire pattern showing the greatest damage must be at the area of origin. Nearly all structural fires will produce charring – the cracked and blistered remnants of when various materials, such as vinyl, gypsum wallboard, and wood, are exposed to elevated temperatures. The depth of char, or how deeply wood is burned, may, in limited circumstances, be useful in determining the fire’s point of origin. The extent of the depth of char is more reliable for establishing the burn spread rather than length or duration of burn.
POINTS: REFERENCES:
Determination of the origin of a fire involves the combined interpretation of information derived from one or more of the following: (1) witness statements; (2) fire and burn patterns; (3) arc mapping; and (4) fire dynamics (the physics and chemistry of the fire) (NFPA 18.1.1). Multiple points of origin might indicate arson. 1 The Preliminary Investigation

Pictures of a fire in progress show the smoke’s color and its origination as well as the size ANSWER: of the fire at different points and times. Pictures are especially useful if there appears to be acceleration of the fire at a specific time that would indicate arson or the presence of highly combustible substances. Many fire departments take such in- progress photographs. Smaller departments may seek help from television or newspaper photographers who may take pictures that can be of immense help. Photographs or videotapes of the fire scene are also ideal to show the judge and jury. Pictures taken of people at the fire scene might reveal the presence of a known arsonist or show a person who repeatedly appears in photos taken at fires and is therefore an arson suspect. Also, people familiar with the structure can review the pictures for anything out of the ordinary. Photos and videos taken inside to show the extent of burning will prove the corpus delicti. Officers can take close-up videos of extra papers, rags, gas cans, or other suspicious substances, as well as examples of alligatoring and deep charring. By videotaping at each stage of the search, officers can show the point of origin, the nature of the burning, and the direction and speed of the fire’s spread.

67. Why would an arson investigator interview a firefighter as part of the arson investigation? Since the firefighter was initially on scene, the investigator could reasonably ask questions ANSWER: such as: How was the fire discovered? Who discovered it? Who were witnesses? What did they see? What color was the smoke, and where was it coming from? What direction was the wind? Did the fire appear to accelerate suddenly? Did anything out of the ordinary occur before the fire? Were there unusual odors? Were the shades up or down? Did obstructions prevent anyone seeing into the building? Were suspicious persons or vehicles observed at the scene before, during, or after the fire? In addition, the investigator may suspect the firefighter of being a “vanity” arsonist or “striker,” or one who starts fires even though he or she may be in the public safety field or may be aspiring to be hired as a police officer or firefighter.

crimes. ANSWER:
The U.S. Supreme Court requires a two-step warrant process for investigating fires involving crimes. The initial search may require an administrative warrant for searching the premises for cause of fire and origin determination and a criminal warrant when evidence of a crime is discovered. Both require probable cause for issuance. An administrative warrant is issued when it is necessary for a government agent to search the premises to determine the fire’s cause and origin. A criminal warrant is issued on probable cause when the premises yield evidence of a crime.

Although vehicle fires can be caused by accident, vehicles usually do not burn readily. ANSWER: Accelerants are used on many vehicles to accomplish arson. A quart to a half-gallon of flammable liquid is required to cause a major vehicle fire. When investigating vehicle fires, officers should look for evidence of accelerants and determine whether the vehicle was insured. It is seldom arson if there was no insurance.

Often, additional tools are needed to help responding officers determine if an explosive ANSWER: threat truly exists. Some of the methods are low-tech, such as using dogs to sniff out compounds used to build bombs. Dogs have become increasingly useful in bomb detection and in searches for evidence following explosions. Other techniques employ highly advanced equipment and technology to detect explosive material. Sometimes law enforcement relies on what is referred to as “sniffer” technology—the use of a portable device that pulls in an air sample and passes it through a chemical analyzer to calculate a profile of the elements and compounds, including explosives that are present in the ambient environment. Bomb squads in larger departments are using robots to approach and detonate suspected packages. Robots can be equipped with disrupters, devices that use gunpowder to fire a jet of water or a projectile at a particular component of an explosive to make it safe. Copyright Cengage Learning.

Discuss some of the difficulties in reporting, investigating, and prosecuting Internet crimes that are transnational in scope. The global reach of the Internet poses another challenge in computer crime cases by ANSWER: introducing jurisdictional complications on top of an already complex area of criminal investigation. Difficulties exist in determining jurisdiction when the equipment being employed criminally is located in one community and the computer that is illegally entered electronically is in another state or even another country. The traditional concept of jurisdiction focuses almost exclusively on the territorial aspect of “where did the act take place?” However, traditional territorial boundaries are often complicated in cybercrime cases, as the location of the acts must take into account the location of the defendant and where the material originated (was uploaded from), any servers this information passed through, the location of computers where material was downloaded, and the location of any effects this material may have set in motion. In cases of international scope, it is necessary to determine whether the act is illegal in all of the countries involved. For example, the Love Bug virus that spread across the globe in two hours in May 2000, affecting over 45 million users in more than 20 countries, was developed in and distributed from the Philippines, where the act of virus dissemination was not illegal at the time. The location of the defendant in such a country meant he could not be extradited to the United States, where his acts were considered illegal, because of a treaty-established requirement of double criminality in cases involving international jurisdiction, meaning the act would have needed to be criminal in both countries. This requirement of double criminality presents numerous problems for law enforcement and prosecutors trying to stem the rising tide of international cybercrime.

Free Speech Coalition (2002) where the issue involved the use of “virtual” child pornography? How did Congress deal with the ruling by the Court? Virtual child pornography, illegal in Canada and the European Union, was declared illegal ANSWER: in the United States under the Child Pornography Prevention Act (CPPA) of 1996. However, the Supreme Court ruled in Ashcroft v. Free Speech Coalition (2002) that the portion of the CPPA prohibiting the production or distribution of such virtual pornography was overly broad and an unconstitutional infringement on the First Amendment right to freedom of speech. In effect, it’s not illegal in the United States. Shortly thereafter, Congress set to work crafting legislation with more narrow language, per the Court’s mandate, and passed the Prosecutorial Remedies and Other Tools to end the Exploitation of Children Today Act of 2003 (PROTECT Act), a compilation of three statutes (18 U.S.C. § 2252, 18 U.S.C. § 2252A, and 18 U.S.C. § 2256).

What are some of the guidelines investigators must adhere to when dealing with physical evidence in a computer crime case? • According to the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), “First responders must avoid… using ANSWER: any tools or materials that may produce or emit static electricity or a magnetic field as they may damage or destroy the evidence.” Further, the NIJ recommends that “First responders should also have radio frequency-shielding material such as faraday isolation bags or aluminum foil to wrap cell phones, smart phones, and other mobile communication devices after they have been seized” (National Institute of Justice, 2008, pp. 13–14). • The NIJ also cautions that “Without having the necessary skills and training, no responder should attempt to explore the contents or recover data from a computer (e.g., do not touch the keyboard or click the mouse) or other electronic device other than to record what is visible on its display” (National Institute of Justice, 2008, p. 6). First responders and investigators must be aware that destruction of the program or of information files may be programmed in so that any attempt to access the information or to print it will cause it to self-destruct. Officers should also check for a hardware disabler. • Because chemicals used in processing fingerprints can damage electronic equipment and data, latent prints should be collected after electronic evidence recovery is complete. • A backup of the hard disk contents should be made as quickly as possible. A portable hard drive duplication tool is available that lets investigators quickly create a mirror image of one or more hard drives in the field without removing the original to a remote site. • Investigators should avoid contact with the recording surfaces of computer tapes and disks. They should never write on disk labels with a ballpoint pen or pencil or use paper clips or rubber bands with disks, because to do so may destroy the data they contain.

What issues should be considered? Investigators must be alert to situations where the PPA may be implicated. Under this act, ANSWER: with certain exceptions, it is considered unlawful for a government agent to search for or seize materials possessed by a person reasonably believed to have a legitimate purpose for disseminating information to the public. For example, seizure of First Amendment materials such as drafts of newsletters or Web pages may implicate the PPA. The PPA prohibition on use of a search warrant does not apply in the following circumstances: • • •
Materials searched for or seized are contraband, fruits, or instrumentalities of the crime. There is reason to believe that the immediate seizure of such materials is necessary to prevent death or serious bodily injury. Probable cause exists to believe that the person possessing the materials has committed or is committing a criminal offense to which the materials relate.

POINTS:
The FBI’s Computer Analysis Response Team (CART) helps state and local law enforcement as well as federal agents. CART helps write and execute search warrants, seize and catalog evidence, and perform routine examinations of digital evidence. The U.S. DOJ has developed the Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section (CCIPS) which, as one of its many functions, provides training to state, local, tribal, territorial, and international law enforcement agencies on how to collect electronic evidence properly and strengthen the prosecution of cybercrime cases. Another resource to help law enforcement handle computer crimes is the Internet Crime Complaint Center (IC3). The IC3 provides cybercrime victims a convenient, user-friendly reporting mechanism that notifies authorities of suspected violations. One mandate of the USA PATRIOT Act was that the Secret Service establish a nationwide network of Electronic Crimes Task Forces, which were merged in 2020 with the Cyber and Financial Crimes Task Forces to form the Cyber Fraud Task Forces (CFTFs). The CFTF network brings together federal, state, and local law enforcement, as well as prosecutors, private industry, and academia. The Computer Crime and Intellectual Property Section of the DOJ maintains a Web resource for law enforcement and is a one-stop resource for everything related to computer crime. The site offers a collection of documents and links to other sites and agencies that may help prevent, detect, investigate, and prosecute cybercrime. For the special challenge of handling cases of cybercrimes involving children, investigators may tap the resources of the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) program, a national network of 61 coordinated task forces representing over 4,500 federal, state, and local law enforcement and prosecutorial agencies. Members of the ICAC program, which is funded by the U.S. DOJ’s Office of Juvenile Justice and Delinquency Prevention, assist with proactive investigations, forensic investigations, and criminal prosecutions.

The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children® (NCMEC) has created an ANSWER: Internet safety and awareness program called NetSmartz, available to the public at no cost. The program offers age-appropriate resources to help make children more aware of potential online risks and empower them to help prevent victimization by making safer choices on- and offline. The program “is designed for children ages 5–17, parents and guardians, educators, and law enforcement. With resources such as videos, games, downloadable activities, and presentations, NetSmartz entertains while it educates.” Two 6-episode seasons follow brother and sister, Webster and Nettie, through a series of adventures as they learn about various safety topics, such as dealing with cyberbullying, maintaining online privacy, checking misleading information, reporting unsafe behavior, livestreaming safety, talking to trusted adults, and reporting and removing inappropriate content: Nettie and Webster live in the NetSmartz Neighborhood in “the cloud,” and along with their trusted adult, Clicky, they learn and share about ways to keep the internet safer while fighting off the evil plots of the Webville Outlaws. After falling through an abandoned transport tube, Nettie and Webster find themselves stranded in the strange cloud realm of Badromeda. As they venture deeper into these unknown realms of the cloud, they’ll have to rely on each other, some new friends, and everything they’ve learned about internet safety to make it home and stop the Webville Outlaws! The notorious Outlaws include Wanta-Know Wally, who tries to trick people into giving up their personal information; Meet-Me Mack, who tries to get kids he talks to online to meet him face-to-face; and Potty-Mouth Pete, the biggest cyberbully around, who tries to get people to be rude and mean to each other online. Helping Webster and Nettie navigate through these issues is Officer Armstrong, a new recruit to the Badromeda Police Department. She specializes in cybercrime and uses computers and technology to catch those using the internet for illegal purposes. In her free time she likes to travel and is a recreational extreme hoverboard enthusiast.

Club drugs are those drugs commonly found at raves, dance parties that feature fast- paced, ANSWER: repetitive electronic music and light shows. Example of club drugs include Ecstasy, Rohypnol, GHB, LSD, and even meth. Designer drugs are created by adding to or omitting something from an existing drug. In many instances, the primary drug is not illegal. The illicit drugs are called analogs of the drug from which they are created—for example, mescaline analog. Because designer drugs are difficult for amateurs to manufacture, they are high-profit drugs for dealers.

58. What are some of the precautions that officers should take in undercover drug buys? Undercover drug buys must be carefully planned, witnessed, and conducted so that no ANSWER: charge of entrapment can be made. Some recommended precautions are: If working undercover, be thoroughly conversant with the language of the user and the seller, know the street prices of drugs, and have a tight cover. Devise an excuse to avoid using the drugs. Plan to work within the seller’s system. Drug pushers, like other criminals, tend to develop certain methods for making their sales. Asking them to change their method can cause suspicion, whereas going along with the system establishes credibility for subsequent buys. Make careful plans before making a drug buy. Select a surveillance group and fully brief group members on the signals to use and their specific assignments. Small transmitters are important communications devices for surveillance team members. Have alternative plans in case the original plan fails. Prepare the buy money in advance. It must be marked, identified, counted, and recorded by serial number, date, time, and denomination. Have this procedure witnessed by one or more people.

What should investigators do to address those safety concerns? Clan labs pose serious physical, chemical, and toxic hazards to law enforcement agencies ANSWER: conducting raids on the premises, including booby traps and assaults from attack dogs or violent drug “cooks” under the influence of their products. In addition, many of the substances, often unidentified or misidentified, are explosive and extremely flammable. Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

Irritants and corrosives, asphyxiants, and nerve toxins also may be encountered. When encountering a drug lab or its components, do not use matches, lighters, or items that could ignite fumes. Do not turn switches on or off, because the electric connection could produce sparks and cause an explosion.

Asset forfeiture is a tool that allows agencies investigating various types of crimes, ANSWER: including drug trafficking, to seize items used in or acquired through committing that crime. Confiscating drug dealers’ cash and property has been effective in reducing drug trafficking and is providing local, state, and federal law enforcement agencies with assets they need for their fight against drugs. Asset forfeiture laws provide for the confiscation of cash and other property in the possession of a drug dealer at the time of the arrest. Seized vehicles, boats, or airplanes may be used directly by the agency or sold at auction to generate funds. Monetary assets may be used to purchase police equipment, to hire additional law enforcement personnel, or to provide training in drug investigation.

Which is more effective – intervention of partnerships with third parties, or law-enforcement-only approaches? Why? Any successful law-enforcement effort to address drug-related crime and drug addiction ANSWER: must also necessarily involve partnerships with the community. Businesses, schools, public health departments, and individual citizens are invaluable components of an effective response. A summary of the findings from all rigorous academic studies evaluating a range of street-level drug law enforcement interventions found that strategic crime-control partnerships with a range of third parties are more effective at disrupting drug problems than are law enforcement-only. Thousands of volunteers, groups, and agencies have joined the fight against illegal drugs. Programs like Operation Weed and Seed marshal the resources of a number of federal, state, and local agencies to strengthen law enforcement and revitalize communities. Some communities are developing specific programs to address the drug problem and are recognizing the need for innovative approaches. For example, in jurisdictions facing high incidence of youths abusing OTC drugs, law enforcement can take steps to educate business owners and operators who sell these products about the risks involved. Clerks can be trained to recognize common signs of drug abuse and to understand why they should not sell a dozen packages of Coricidin® Cough and Cold medicine to a group of teenagers. Some businesses may voluntarily move the drugs behind the counter, limit the number of packages a customer may purchase at one time, or require customers to be over age 18. Although many states have passed legislation banning OTC sales of certain products deemed threats to public safety, law enforcement is limited in its ability to restrict OTC drug sales. Indeed, strategic crime-control partnerships with a range of third parties are more effective at disrupting drug problems than are law enforcement–only approaches.

Second, we must continue to reduce barriers to treatment services so that access to long-term recovery is available for those suffering from substance use disorder.

Describe the Controlled Substances Act and explain when it is illegal to use or sell narcotics or dangerous drugs. The Controlled Substances Act (CSA), signed into law in 1970 by President Nixon, placed ANSWER: all substances which were in some manner regulated under existing federal law into one of five schedules based on the substance’s accepted medical use, potential for abuse, and safety or dependence liability (DEA, 2020a). The five schedules contain the official, common, usual, chemical, and brand names of the drugs. Schedule I drugs are considered the most dangerous, in part because of their highly addictive qualities; Schedule V drugs, in contrast, present a very low chance of addiction. Under this act, if a drug does not have a potential for abuse, it cannot be controlled. The act also provides a mechanism for substances to be controlled (added to or transferred between schedules) or decontrolled (removed from control). Laws establish prohibited acts concerning the controlled substances and assign penalties in proportion to the drug’s danger. Basically, these laws state that no person, firm, or corporation may manufacture, sell, give away, barter or deliver, exchange, distribute, or possess these substances with intent to do any of the prohibited acts. Possession of controlled substances is probably the most frequent charge in narcotics arrests. Actual or constructive possession and knowledge by a suspect that a drug was illegal must be shown. If the evidence is not on the person, it must be shown to be under the suspect’s control.

The DEA focus is on stopping the flow of drugs at their foreign sources, disrupting illicit domestic commerce at the highest levels of distribution, and helping state and local police prevent the entry of illegal drugs into their communities.

A victimless crime is an illegal activity in which all involved are willing participants. ANSWER: Among the crimes categorized as “victimless” are gambling, drug use, pornography, and prostitution. Because there is no complainant, these crimes are difficult to investigate and prosecute. Arguments for legalizing so-called victimless crimes have been made periodically over the years, with varying degrees of success. Proponents for legalizing so-called victimless crimes argue that it is not the government’s function to regulate morality, that the laws are ineffective as well as hypocritical and unenforceable. Further, the laws have created a whole class of “criminals” who would not otherwise be considered such. Perhaps most important, the laws create the conditions under which organized crime can thrive. Opponents of legalizing these activities argue that it is the government’s proper function to protect its citizens, even if from themselves. As long as the activities are illegal, law enforcement is obligated to enforce the laws. Among the most difficult laws to enforce are those making gambling illegal in some instances but not others.

Distinctive characteristics of organized crime include the following: definite organization ANSWER: and control; high-profit and continued-profit crimes; singular control through force and threats; and protection through corruption. The organization provides direct control, leadership, and discipline. The leaders are isolated from the general operations through field or area leaders, who in turn control the everyday activities that bring in the profits. Organized crime deals primarily in high-profit crimes that are susceptible to organizational control and that can be developed into larger operations that provide the continued profit necessary for future existence. Organized crime functions through many forms of corruption and intimidation, often through strong arm tactics, to create a singular control over specific goods and services that ultimately results in a monopoly.

immunity is the indifference of the general public and their knowing or unknowing use of the services or purchase of the goods offered by organized crime. Through such activities, citizens provide the financial power that gives organized crime immunity from legal authorities.

Bookmaking—soliciting and accepting bets on any type of sporting event—is the most ANSWER: prevalent gambling operation. Loan-sharking—lending money at exorbitant interest rates—is supported initially by the profits from gambling operations. The upper hierarchy lends money to lower echelon members of the organization, charging them one to two percent interest on large sums. These members in turn lend the money to customers at rates of 20 to 30 percent or more. The most likely customers are people who cannot obtain loans through legitimate sources, often to pay off illegal gambling debts or debts made through bookmakers.

Italian organized crime groups are heavily involved in drug trafficking and money laundering, as well as illegal gambling, political corruption, extortion, fraud, counterfeiting, weapons trafficking, infiltration of legitimate businesses, bombings, kidnappings, and murders.

organized criminal presence in America, making the criminal system that much more difficult to crack. Asian organized crime groups, referred to as Asian criminal enterprises by the FBI, are involved in murder, kidnapping, extortion, prostitution, pornography, loan-sharking, gambling, money laundering, alien smuggling, trafficking in heroin and methamphetamine, counterfeiting of computer and clothing products, and various protection schemes. Asian organized crime is often well run and hard to crack, using very fluid, mobile global networks of criminal associates. Asian criminal enterprises are classified as either traditional, such as the Yakuza and Triads, or nontraditional, such as ethnic Asian street gangs. Asian organized crime investigations present some unique challenges, primarily because of cultural and social differences. Many Asians are suspicious of the police and the U.S. criminal justice system. Asian criminals exploit this distrust by preying on other Asians, secure in the knowledge that their crimes will most likely go unreported. Another challenge is that many Asian groups are very mobile and have associates or family scattered throughout the United States. Latin American organized crime groups within the United States include Cubans, Colombians, Mexicans, Dominicans, and El Salvadorians. These criminal enterprises are heavily involved in drug trafficking, typically bringing their criminal organization into this country along with the drugs they sell. In the United States, cartel representatives serve as brokers to coordinate cocaine deliveries to various drug networks. Because of Mexico’s proximity to the United States, its organized crime groups are becoming an increasing threat to the United States and are among the fastest-growing gangs in the country. Mexican drug trafficking has had an enormous impact on the United States, as organizations smuggle heroin, cocaine, marijuana and, most recently, meth. The Mexican Mafia is a prison-based gang that has been growing within the U.S. correctional system for nearly 50 years and is found in several state prison systems. The Mexican Mafia also has links to Hispanic street gangs and controls, to varying degrees, their drug trafficking activities. African criminal enterprises, an emerging criminal threat facing law enforcement agencies worldwide and known to be operating in at least 80 other countries, have proliferated in the United States since the 1980s. Although some groups comprise members originating in Ghana, Liberia and Somalia, by far the predominant nationality in African organized crime is Nigerian. Financial frauds and advance fee schemes, often perpetrated over the Internet, are common methods used by Nigerian organized crime groups. Known as “4-1-9 scams,” after Section 4-1-9 of the Nigerian Penal Code relating to fraudulent schemes, these scams prey on victims’ sympathy, naïveté and, often, greed, promising a handsome monetary reward in exchange for help making a financial transaction. Eurasian/Russian organized crime has gone international since the collapse of the Soviet Union and poses a great threat to and challenge for U.S. justice. The FBI refers to these groups as EOC. Former FBI director Louis Freeh has called the Russian Mafia the fastestgrowing criminal organization in the United States. Unlike members of organized crime groups originating from economically and educationally disadvantaged areas, EOC members tend to be well educated. EOC has had little to no involvement in some of the more traditional organized crime activities, choosing instead to focus on a wide range of frauds and scams, including insurance scams, securities and investment fraud, and fuel oil scams. In the United States, EOC has become the primary purveyor of credit card scams. Contract murders, kidnappings, and business arson are also common. In addition to transnational money laundering, Russian organized crime is known to traffic in women and children. EOC members also traffic in such hazardous commodities as weapons and nuclear material smuggled out of their homeland. Investigating Russian organized crime is complicated by several factors.

consists of hundreds of groups, all acting independently. Russian crime groups in the United States are loosely structured, lacking any formal hierarchy. They tend to be fluid with membership fluctuating between five and 20 people, depending on the operation. Most members are already hardened criminals, have military experience, and are highly educated. As with cases involving other immigrant organized crime groups, language barriers present a challenge to investigators. Another problem lies in the cooperation among and pooling of resources between Russian and other organized crime groups.

Explain why this is important and how to recognize if a community has a gang problem. Failure to recognize or acknowledge the existence of gang activity, whether willingly or ANSWER: through the lack of gang identification training, dramatically increases a gang’s ability to thrive and develop a power base. Many communities begin to address gang issues only after a high-profile gang-related incident occurs. Recognizing a gang can be challenging, but law enforcement, schools, and communities can be aware of warning signs such as graffiti, obvious colors of clothing, tattoos, initiations, hand signals or handshakes, uncommon terms or phrases, and a sudden change in behavior. Communities and law enforcement may not know when a group of misbehaving youths crosses the line into becoming a bona fide gang. To answer the question, “Does our community have a gang problem?” or “Is there gang activity occurring in our jurisdiction?” agencies may use a list of criteria. These criteria may include committing crimes together, having a name, displaying colors or symbols, hanging out together, claiming turf or territory, and having a leader. In general, law enforcement agencies regard group criminality as the most important criterion and the presence of leadership as the least important criterion in defining a gang.

The National Gang Intelligence Center has identified three general types of gangs: street ANSWER: gangs; prison gangs; and outlaw motorcycle gangs (OMGs). The Eurogang consensus nominal definition of a street gang is “any durable, streetoriented youth group whose involvement in illegal activity is part of its group identity” (Weerman et al., 2009, p. 20). The NGIC’s definition differs slightly: “Street gangs are criminal organizations that formed on the street and operate in neighborhoods throughout the United States” (2015, p. 11). Klein (2007, p. 54) states simply, “There is no one form of street gang.” The NGIC and U.S. DOJ define a prison gang as “a criminal organization that originates in the penal system and continues to operate within correctional facilities throughout the United States. Prison gangs are self-perpetuating criminal entities that also continue their operations outside of prison” (NGIC, 2015; U.S. Department of Justice [DOJ], 2015b). The NGIC defines an OMG as an ongoing organization, association, or group of three or more persons with a common interest or activity characterized by the commission of, or involvement in, a pattern of criminal conduct. Members must possess and be able to operate a motorcycle to achieve and maintain membership within the group (NGIC, 2015).

There are no consistent national criteria used to identify individual gang members. The ANSWER: National Gang Center defines a gang member as one who admits gang membership or meets any two of the following criteria: has been identified as a gang member by an individual of proven reliability has been identified as a gang member by an individual of unknown reliability, and that information has been corroborated in significant respects has been observed by law enforcement members to frequent a known gang’s area, associate with known gang members, or affect that gang’s style of dress, tattoos, hand signals, or symbols has been arrested on more than one occasion with known gang members consistent with gang activity has admitted membership in a gang at any time other than at the time of current arrest/incarceration Copyright Cengage Learning.

“For larger and smaller cities and suburban counties, a majority of agencies emphasize the display of gang symbols compared with other criteria (e.g., arrested or associates with known gang members; self-nomination; identified by a reliable source) in identifying and documenting individuals as gang members in their jurisdictions” (National Gang Center, 2012b). Gang members may thus also be identified by their names, symbols (clothing and tattoos), and communication styles, including graffiti and sign language.

Illegal activities of gangs usually involve multiple suspects, which makes investigation ANSWER: much more difficult. Evidence may link only a few of the suspects with the crime, and, as with organized crime figures, gang members maintain fierce loyalty to each other and are often unwilling to “rat.” Special challenges in investigating the illegal activities of gangs include the multitude of suspects, the potential mobility of the members, and the unreliability or fear of witnesses.

61. Discuss the various strategies currently in use by communities that are working to suppress gang activity and violence. A straightforward three-pronged approach to addressing the gang problem is to apply a ANSWER: balance of prevention, intervention, and suppression strategies. The first strategy —prevention—aims at keeping youths from becoming gang members in the first place and is divided into two tiers: primary prevention, directed at all youths living in communities where gangs are present; and secondary prevention, targeting at-risk youths. The second strategy—intervention—is directed at youths already involved in gangs—either as active members or close associates—and provides sanctions and services designed to push these juveniles out of and away from gangs. The third strategy—suppression—targets serious and chronic offenders, those hard-core members most embedded in the gang culture, who comprise a relatively small proportion of the population but who commit a disproportionately large share of crime and violence. Suppression involves both formal and informal social control procedures, such as close supervision and monitoring of ganginvolved youth by agencies of the juvenile/criminal justice system and also by communitybased agencies, schools, and grassroots groups.

What specifically should investigators document to aid the prosecution, and why? ANSWER: Throughout the investigation of illegal gang activities, investigators should remain aware of the most common defenses gang members use in court: pleas of diminished capacity and self-defense. Although some states have eliminated “diminished capacity” as a defense, many have not. Therefore, officers should document whether the suspect was under the influence of alcohol or other drugs at the time of the crime. Likewise, officers should document whether the suspect was threatened by the victim and could possibly have been acting in self-defense.

No national consensus exists about whether hate crimes should be a separate crime, and ANSWER: those supporting hate crime statutes disagree about what should be included. States vary greatly in legislation related to hate crimes. The most common elements of hate crime legislation include (1) enhanced penalties, (2) criminal penalties for vandalism of religious institutions, and (3) collection of data.

Despite such legislation, those who propagate messages of bigotry, intolerance, and hatred claim they have a constitutionally protected right to do so, citing free speech, due process, and equal protection challenges. Although state courts have repeatedly upheld the constitutionality of legislation that enhances penalties for hate-motivated violence, in 2003 the U.S. Supreme Court struck down a Virginia law banning cross burning, saying the statute violated the First Amendment (Virginia v. Black). Furthermore, research has found minimal public support for harsher penalties for offenders Copyright Cengage Learning. Powered by Cognero.

Identify and provide a brief description of the groups commonly identified as Islamic terrorist organizations. Islamic terrorist groups include Hezbollah, Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), core al-Qa’ida ANSWER: (AQ) groups and their affiliates, ISIS/ISIL, and the Taliban. Hezbollah, literally the Party of God, is a militia group and political party that first emerged in Lebanon following the Israeli invasion of that country in 1982 and was named an FTO on October 8, 1997. Hezbollah began with a group of Lebanese Shi’ite clerics determined to drive Israel from their homeland. Palestine Islamic Jihad (PIJ) was formed by militant Palestinians in Gaza during the 1970s and was designated as an FTO on October 8, 1997. PIJ is committed to the destruction of Israel and to the creation of an Islamic state in historic Palestine, including present-day Israel. Al-Qa’ida (AQ) was founded in 1988 and designated as an FTO on October 8, 1999, nearly two years before the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the United States. Al-Qa’ida is a broad-based Islamic militant organization. Although al-Qa’ida has been considered by many in the United States to be the greatest threat since 9/11, other jihadist groups are gaining prominence and challenging the global leadership of alQa’ida’s Core. One in particular, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, often referred to as ISIL, was the third deadliest terrorist organization in 2019 (Institute for Economics & Peace, 2020). But before ISIL, there was ISIS. The Taliban became relevant to the United States in 2001 when it was found to have offered Osama bin Laden and al-Qa’ida a safe refuge in which to plan their attack on the United States.

Community policing is an important concept to adopt in efforts to prepare for and respond ANSWER: to acts of terrorism. Officers in departments that fully embrace community policing will have an advantage in recognizing potential terrorist threats and targets in their jurisdictions because their daily work requires and imparts an intimate familiarity with their regularly assigned patrol area. Officers must keep their ears to the ground and establish a rapport with the various sources of information in their community, including storage facilities, religious groups, real estate agents, hotels and motels, colleges and universities, transportation centers, and tourist attractions.

President Obama signed a four-year sunset extension of the USA PATRIOT Act on May 26, 2011, which included three key provisions. What were those provisions? The four-year sunset extension of the USA PATRIOT Act included the following three key ANSWER: provisions: Use of roving wiretaps—allows monitoring of a person rather than a specific device, to defeat suspected terrorists who constantly switch out electronic communication devices such as cellphones; Surveillance of “lone wolf ” terror suspects—allows U.S. intelligence and law enforcement agencies to target surveillance at suspected terrorists even in the absence of any direct connection to a terrorist group. This provision specifically states that it does not apply to U.S. citizens and, during its four-year tenure, was never used; and Searches of business records—permits the government to obtain a wide array of records on an individual as long as such records are relevant to an investigation involving foreign terrorism or espionage. Section 215 of this provision expanded government access to records and other items under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) and gave the National Security Agency (NSA) authority to collect bulk telephone data on millions of Americans and retain that data for five years.

The first line of defense against terrorism is the patrol officer in the field. The International ANSWER: Association of Chiefs of Police (IACP), in recognizing that terrorism, violent extremism, and precursor crimes are problems that begin at the local level, advocates for law enforcement to apply the principles of community policing in their efforts to detect and prevent future attacks (2014). The IACP calls community members “an important force multiplier,” because their proximity to those who are becoming radicalized into violent terrorist extremists can help law enforcement identify, prevent, and eliminate terrorist ideologies and behaviors before they turn into violence. Homeland security depends on alert, aware, vigilant citizens. Information they provide officers on their beat can be invaluable to investigators. The Nationwide Suspicious Activity Reporting (SAR) Initiative (NSI) encourages individual citizens to take an active role in reporting any type of suspicious or criminal activity, including extremist behavior, to authorities.

66. Describe how the intelligence cycle works, and how it is affected by the operational style of law enforcement. One way to conceptualize the difference between information and intelligence is to think ANSWER: of information as raw data; once those data have been placed through various filters, sieves, and other analytical processes, the more meaningful or useful bits of data that are extracted are referred to as intelligence. The process of extracting intelligence from raw data is referred to as the intelligence cycle. The cycle begins with knowing the intelligence requirements needed for an investigation. The second step—planning and direction—is a function of the FBI and is led by the executive assistant director of the National Security Branch. The third step is collecting raw information from local, state, and federal investigations. The fourth step is processing and exploiting the raw information into a form usable by analysts. The fifth step is analysis and production, which converts the raw information into intelligence. The final step is dissemination of intelligence to consumers, who make decisions based on the intelligence. The difficult tasks of counterterrorism and antiterrorism are made even harder by the operational style that pervades law enforcement—that of withholding, rather than sharing, intelligence. A major step in improving the sharing of information is the appointment of a new assistant secretary in DHS to serve as a liaison between state and local law enforcement and DHS policymakers—an important position in the policy directorate.

How can local law enforcement officers serve the counterterrorism effort in the first two stages of al-Qa’ida terrorist attacks? Terrorist attacks typically have three stages. The first stage is research, including ANSWER: surveillance, stakeouts, and local inquiries. Local law enforcement officers can best serve the counterterrorism effort at this stage because the terrorists are out in public, watching us, studying our habits, discovering our vulnerabilities, and reporting back to their handlers with prospective targeting data to begin the planning stage. The second stage is planning, usually conducted behind closed doors. The average planning cycle for international terrorists is 92 days, compared with 14 days for environmental terrorists. It is crucial that investigators identify members of sleeper cells within their community; tools available to officers are profiling, behavior pattern recognition, and the most basic tool of all—staying on the local beat, regularly visiting businesses that offer services related to terrorist methods and noticing when a tenant or group of tenants is showing less than the usual amount of daily activity.

The Terrorism Research Center suggests that terrorism and the media have a symbiotic ANSWER: relationship, both benefitting from the actions of the other. For the media, stories about terrorism generate high viewer ratings. For terrorist, the media provides publicity—a way to spread the word about their cause and generate public fear. Indeed, terrorism is futile if no one knows about it. White (2012) raises the question of the contagion effect; that is, coverage of terrorism inspires more terrorism, thus making terrorism, in effect, contagious. This controversial issue leads to discussions about censorship in the war on terrorism.

70. What are the two main concerns related to the war on terrorism? Explain each one briefly. Two pressing concerns related to the “war on terrorism” are that civil liberties may be ANSWER: jeopardized and that people of Middle Eastern descent may be discriminated against or become victims of hate crimes. Civil libertarians are concerned that valued American freedoms will be sacrificed in the interest of national safety. For example, the Justice Department has issued a regulation giving itself the authority to monitor inmate- attorney communications if “reasonable suspicion” exists that inmates are using such communications to further or facilitate acts of terrorism. However, criminal defense lawyers and members of the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) have protested the regulation, saying that it effectively eliminates the Sixth Amendment right to counsel because, under codes of professional responsibility, attorneys cannot communicate with clients if confidentiality is not ensured. The government must preserve the rights and freedoms guaranteed by America’s democracy, but, at the same time, ensure that the fight against terrorism is vigorous and effective. Another concern is that some Americans may retaliate against innocent people of Middle Eastern descent, many of whom were either born in the United States or are naturalized citizens, or that police may unlawfully profile Arab Americans.

prosecution of evidence favorable to the accused upon request violates due process where the evidence is material either to guilt or to punishment, irrespective of the good faith or bad faith of the prosecution.” The Brady rule, as it is now called, says that exculpatory evidence—evidence that tends to show innocence of the accused—must be disclosed by the prosecution. Investigators who are aware of such evidence are obligated to bring it to the prosecutor’s attention. When officers intentionally withhold exculpatory material from the prosecution, they leave themselves open to personal liability for violating a defendant’s due process rights.

Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (1993) established standards for the ANSWER: admission of expert testimony in federal courts. Under Daubert, an expert’s testimony must be specialized and relate directly to some fact at issue in the case: “Expert testimony which does not relate to any issue in the case is not relevant and, ergo, non-helpful.” The Supreme Court also noted that expert testimony must fit the case. Fitness is determined by examining how helpful the testimony is. This “helpfulness” standard requires a valid connection between the expert testimony and the inquiry.

ANSWER:
As you enter the courtroom, keep in mind your goal, which is similar to that sought on the street—to win. However, this does not mean winning the case with a conviction but, instead, winning the trust of the court and the jury. You are on trial. The way you treated the suspect, how you followed policies and procedures, and your professional demeanor and knowledge are all on trial. They all factor into whether the jury trusts and believes you. To win, the jury must find you credible. Your success as an investigator depends not only on conducting a thorough investigation, making a good arrest, and producing a wellwritten, well-documented report, but also on presenting yourself on the stand as a competent and credible witness. As Van Brocklin (2020) states succinctly, “The win for an officer in court—whether in a criminal prosecution or civil litigation—is that at the end of testimony, the jury or judge must believe you. That’s it.” POINTS: 1 REFERENCES: The Trial QUESTION TYPE: Essay HAS VARIABLES: False STUDENT ENTRY MODE: Basic LEARNING OBJECTIVES: CRIM.HESS.17.21.09 - Explain what the “win” is for an investigator who testifies in court.

The text details eight guidelines for effective testimony in court, the first of which is to “speak clearly, firmly, and with expression.” List the other seven guidelines for effective testimony. Preparation is the key to being a good witness. After a review of personal notes and all ANSWER: relevant reports, an officer will be familiar with the case and can “tell it like it is.” This will come across well to the jury and establish an officer’s credibility. The other seven guidelines for effective testimony are: answer questions directly, do not volunteer information; pause briefly before answering; refer to your notes if you do not recall exact details; admit calmly when you do not know an answer; admit any mistakes you make in testifying; avoid police jargon, sarcasm, and humor; and tell the complete truth as you know it.

Use notes to help avoid contradictions and inconsistencies. An extemporaneous answer is ANSWER: better received by the judge and jury than one that sounds rehearsed. Refer to your notes if you are uncertain of specific facts, but do not rely on them excessively. Using notes too much detracts from your testimony, weakens your presentation, and gives the impression you have not adequately prepared for the case. POINTS: 1 Copyright Cengage Learning.

Do not underestimate the power of nonverbal factors as you testify. Communication is ANSWER: made up of several components consisting of: what is said—the actual words spoken, how it is said—tone of voice, pitch, modulation, and the like, and nonverbal factors—body language, gestures, demeanor. Never overlook the importance of how you present information and nonverbal factors when testifying. Important nonverbal elements include dress, eye contact, posture, gestures, mannerisms, and facial expressions. Make eye contact with the jury often while testifying. Be aware of facial expressions that might indicate indifference, disgust, displeasure, or arrogance. Avoid actions associated with deception such as putting a hand over your mouth, rubbing your nose, straightening your hair, buttoning your coat, picking lint off your clothing, or tugging at your shirt or a pant leg.

The defense attorney will attempt to cast doubt on your direct testimony in an effort to win ANSWER: an acquittal for the defendant. Know the methods of attack for cross-examination to avoid being trapped.

Another tactic frequently used by defense attorneys is to mispronounce officers’ names intentionally or address them by the wrong rank. This is an attempt to rile or distract the officer.

68. When being cross-examined, how can an officer enhance their credibility in the eyes of the jury? Briefly outline some behaviors to avoid as well as some behaviors to display. Posttrial interviews of jurors reveal some body language or behaviors that can weaken a ANSWER: witness’s credibility: appears ill at ease or nervous, uses a defensive or evasive tone of voice, avoids eye contact, crosses arms defensively across chest, quibbles over common terms, sits stiffly, looks to attorney for assistance during cross-examination, cracks jokes inappropriately, and uses lots of “ah’s” or “uh’s.” In contrast, jurors have noted that several behaviors enhance credibility: displays an even temperament on direct and cross, doesn’t become angry or defensive when pressed, appears relaxed and at ease, is likeable and polite, maintains eye contact with attorney and jury, and is not affected by interruptions or objections.

What are these three areas, and which do you think would be most challenging for you? Captain Asha Mohammed emphasizes three major areas to focus on when giving ANSWER: courtroom testimony. 1. Preparation. While testifying, an investigator should not use their report as a crutch or a script. It should be a safety net—seldom used. Constantly referring to a report gives the jury the impression that you do not know the case. Officers should study their reports and the reports of fellow officers before testifying. 2. Communication. Understand that words are a small part of communicating. Expressions, demeanor, personality, appearance, and more are what jurors use to form an opinion. If you remind them of the obstinate cop who wrote them a ticket for going two miles over the speed limit, they’re going to sympathize with the defendant. 3. Credibility. If jurors question your credibility, the case is in big trouble. If you are caught in a lie, an embellishment, or an obvious omission, why should a juror believe anything you say? In the O. J. Simpson murder trial, a detective lied about whether he had ever used racial slurs. Even though it had nothing to do with the evidence he was presenting, once he lost his credibility, his testimony lost its value and, indeed, severely damaged the prosecution’s case. POINTS:
