Crime Prevention Theory and Practice

Texas State University, Department of Criminal Justice, San Marcos, USA

Stephen Schneider

“This topic is vitally important for not only understanding the causes and prevention of failures, but for understanding and measuring success.”

Characterized both by its interdisciplinary and its applied nature, crime prevention is influenced by diverse fields such as psychology, sociology, criminology, health care, urban planning and design, education, economics, community development, and social work, among others. The study of crime prevention is also focused on developing and evaluating interventions for applications in real-world settings. In addition to exploring basic concepts and theories, Crime Prevention: Theory and Practice reflects the predominantly applied nature of the field, offering readers the knowledge and skills necessary to plan, implement, evaluate, and sustain effective crime prevention interventions.

—John Eck, University of Cincinnati, Department of Criminal Justice

“The concepts and strategies outlined in this book are invaluable for helping to accomplish an investigator’s primary objective: ‘find the truth.’ For those of us who care deeply about investigative excellence and justice, particularly police investigators, this book is a ‘must read.’” —Doug A. LePard, Deputy Chief Commanding Investigation Division, Vancouver Police Department, Canada, From the Preface

What causes competent and dedicated investigators to make avoidable mistakes? Drawing on the research and experience of the author’s 21-year policing career, this volume defines and discusses the problems most common to failed investigations. Exploring cognitive biases, organizational traps, and probability errors, the first three chapters lay the foundation for the remainder of the book, which consists of contributions from scholars, police investigators, and journalists that elaborate on the core points and present relevant cases. This text provides practical advice for avoiding investigative failures and is an invaluable reference for investigators seeking to find the truth.

Taking an objective and diagnostic approach, Child Homicide: Parents Who Kill examines the crime of neonaticide from all angles including historical, cultural, psychological, and legal. Expanding on the original, published as Endangered Children: Neonaticide, Infanticide, and Filicide, the book details the crime’s many forms and investigates the role of the father, who is responsible in roughly 75 percent of these cases. The authors study media influence and legal defenses and offer possible new policies and preventive measures.

He got off on a technicality When evidence is excluded or a case is dismissed or overturned, it is puzzling that the redress of constitutional rights violations is spoken of so derisively. As a check on improper police and governmental behavior, the constitution is one of our strongest allies against corruption and malfeasance. Yet comprehension of this often vague document and the cases which seek to interpret it is frequently difficult. Written in a simple, straightforward manner, Constitutional Law and Criminal Justice examines the U.S. Constitution and its implication for criminal justice system policies and practices, clarifying principles in a concise yet comprehensive format. Features: • Explains the judicial system in a simple, straightforward manner • Covers the entire spectrum of constitutional law issues • Contains excerpts from important constitutional cases • Includes a glossary of legal terms • Provides a complete copy of the U.S. Constitution in Appendix A Using review questions and relevant cases in each chapter to illustrate legal applications, this volume illuminates the concepts in plain language, eliminates unnecessary legal jargon, and clarifies the nuances in the law, making complicated concepts approachable by those without advanced legal training.

New and Forthcoming Criminal Justice Resources May It Please the Court

Edited by

Judicial Processes and Politics in America, Second Edition

Robert M. Bohm

Brian L. Porto

University of Central Florida, Orlando, USA

Vermont Law School, South Royalton, USA

More than 30 years after the U.S. Supreme Court reinstated the death penalty, it is still plagued with egregious problems. Issues of wrongful conviction, inhumane practices, and its efficacy as a deterrent are hotly debated topics.

Despite their clarity and sophistication, most judicial process textbooks currently available have two significant limitations. First, they understate the effects of legal factors such as stare decisis on judicial decision-making and second, they fail to convey the human emotions involved in litigation. May It Please the Court: Judicial Processes and Politics in America, Second Edition redresses this imbalance by giving well-deserved attention to legal influences on judicial decisions and to the human drama of litigation.

The Death Penalty Today

Compiling articles and essays from leading experts, The Death Penalty Today presents an in-depth examination of the current points of debate. The first of two sections focuses on miscarriages of justice, including errors in conviction and possible remedies. It also considers the responsibility of the state for reintegration of the wrongfully convicted after exoneration, and flaws with the ability of lethal injections to produce a “humane” and “painless” death. The second section addresses death penalty opinion with a survey of scholarly experts and mid-level police managers. It considers the criminalization of reporting, televising, and photographing executions and the implications to the first amendment and government accountability. With lucid arguments supported by verifiable statistics and expert opinion, this volume engages readers in vigorous debate and introspective analysis, making it an ideal text for students as well as a professional reference. Catalog no. 70118, 2008, 240 pp., Soft Cover ISBN: 978-1-4200-7011-8, $69.95 / £44.99

Each chapter reflects the book’s premise that the judicial process operates at the intersection of law and politics, and this theme guides the discussions. The coverage encompasses numerous topics, including the structure of federal and state courts, the selection and removal of judges, and the legal profession’s history and culture. It discusses two hypothetical cases, outlining their trial and appellate proceedings. It also presents an engaging debate about the legitimacy and the utility of judicial policy making. New to this Edition: • Glossary of legal terms • Expanded appendices, including a discussion of computerized legal research • New illustrative cases, documents, and web references • All chapters updated to reflect changes since the first publication in 2001 Catalog no. 67672, 2009, 345 pp., Soft Cover ISBN: 978-1-4200-6767-5, $79.95 / £49.99

Linking the murders of an alleged serial killer to successfully present a case in court involves a specific methodology that has been scrutinized by the judicial system but is largely absent in the current literature. Serial Violence: Analysis of Modus Operandi and Signature Characteristics of Killers fully explains the process of finding the nexus between one violent crime and another for the purpose of pursuing the same offender at trial. Written by renowned experts, this book focuses on analyzing crimes of violence to unveil common characteristics that might prove useful in the identification, apprehension, and conviction of murderers. It begins by detailing the historical origins of modus operandi as an investigative tool. It examines murderous ritualistic behavior in a variety of well-known cases. Later chapters discuss serial murders accompanied by burglary, torture, picquerism, sexual violence, sexual degradation, and a host of other behaviors. Containing 40 color photos, this volume includes useful information for expert witnesses and transcripts of original testimony. The scintillating detail and rigorous analysis presented enables investigators to discern the types of ritualistic behaviors that can be linked to the same offender, helping law enforcement bring these killers to justice.

The War on Terrorism A Collision of Values, Strategies, and Societies Thomas A. Johnson University of New Haven, Connecticut, USA

In order to eradicate terrorism, we must go beyond merely shoring up military strength. We must also effectively confront the fundamentalist ideology that fuels and supports the terrorists. The War on Terrorism: A Collision of Values, Strategies, and Societies operates on the premise that the violent rejection of globalization at the root of terrorism must be addressed not solely by Western society and its armies, but also by those moderate and progressive Muslims and their religious leaders who are capable of rebutting the medieval underpinnings of the jihadist interpretation of Islam. By promoting an understanding of both terrorism and the terrorist, this volume examines the complexities inherent in creating a national security policy that successfully combats terrorist attacks. Topics include: • The tools used by terrorist groups • The infrastructure targets that are most vulnerable to attack • Our vulnerabilities to the five major categories of WMDs

Border Security in the Al-Qaeda Era Edited by

John A. Winterdyk and Kelly W. Sundberg Mount Royal College, Calgary, Alberta, Canada

Featuring contributions by an array of international experts, Border Security in the AlQaeda Era explores border security in nine countries, ranging from those with conventional practices to those with approaches that represent the antithesis of the western world. For each country profiled, the authors provide, among other information: • An overview of the history of terrorism and the extent of any suspected terrorist activity since 9/11 • The definition of terrorism • A description of how terrorist data is handled by border security • An overview of border security operations • The impact of changes to border security on the movement of citizens, goods, and foreigners • Steps taken to improve national security and the impact on citizens • The impact of border security changes on the sense of sovereignty

A crucial step in any successful threat management process is knowledge of the players involved. Some individuals truly intend violence (known as hunters), while others merely want to threaten or draw attention to themselves (howlers). Threat Assessment and Management Strategies: Identifying the Howlers and Hunters helps those who interact with questionable populations to identify problem behaviors and determine the appropriate preventative action. Through actual case studies and case analyses, this volume explains the best practices for assessing problem individuals and recommends the optimal protective response and management strategy. The authors provide key indicators of hunters and howlers, comparing and contrasting their behaviors and motivations. An entire chapter is devoted to analyzing the intimacy effect and demonstrating how it applies to law enforcement, specifically to interpersonal relationships involving targets of intended violence. Frederick S. Calhoun, Ph.D. was the principal architect in developing the threat-assessment process used by the U.S. Marshals Service for analyzing risks to federal judicial officials. He manages a nationwide workplace violence prevention program for a large federal agency. Stephen J. Weston is a 32-year veteran of the California Highway Patrol. From 1991 to 2006, he managed the unit responsible for the investigation of threats against California state officials. Their combined expertise provides anyone who is involved in managing potentially violent situations with the guidance needed to contain the threat posed by these would-be predators.

Criminal justice systems vary widely across the world in their approaches to the problem of crime. Bringing together the collective wisdom of Cliff Roberson and Dilip K. Das, two world-renowned experts and university professors who have been involved in the criminal justice system for over thirty years, An Introduction to Comparative Legal Models of Criminal Justice presents the theme that a country’s legal model to a great extent determines the character of its police and corrections as well as its legal system. This book examines these different systems and is designed as an introductory text in comparative criminal justice. It is the authors’ intent that by understanding how other societies deal with problems of justice, readers can better assess whether the system in their own country is effective, efficient and just. Features: • Analyzes how police systems, courts, corrections, and legal system structures are determined by legal models • Presents continental, common law, Islamic, Marxist, and mixed legal models • Highlights how and why cases are handled differently by various countries • Includes case studies and a review section with questions and answers in each chapter An instructor’s manual, test bank, and PowerPoint® slides are available with qualifying course adoption.

Jonathan Doak Nottingham Trent University, UK

Crime prevention, surveillance, and restorative justice have transformed the response to crime in recent years. Each has had a significant impact on policy, introducing new concepts and reassessing traditional aims and priorities. This volume examines these emerging trends which are increasingly being contemplated by police, courts, and corrections agencies, and explores how these three concepts are changing national and international policies concerning crime. Addressing these topics within a larger framework of social technology, this volume: • Offers a critical discussion of recent developments in criminology • Places contemporary technological developments within historical contexts • Presents substantive evaluations of the wider social and political impact of restorative justice in England and Northern Ireland • Examines long-term trends in repeat victimization Explores a range of social technologies from advances in print, film, and electronic monitoring to changes in objectives such as conflict resolution and contractual governance. Comprising the contributions of numerous experts in the field of criminology, the book asks “What is the interaction between knowledge, planning, and social repercussions?” The answer to this question forms a valuable basis from which to evaluate proposals for social improvements related to crime.

Based on interviews with 26 police chiefs, Police Leadership in a Democracy: Conversations with America’s Police Chiefs takes a poignant journey through the minds of the men and women who have risen to the top of a profession essential to the country’s safety and security. The book’s interview format gives a voice to police chiefs from diverse cities and regions. They discuss their visions for their departments and the challenges they faced bringing that vision to fruition, including mistakes made along the way. The chiefs speak candidly about their relationships with mayors, unions, community leaders, and their own officers. Highlighting the importance of these inherently challenging relationships, they assess their strengths and their failures. They explain their approaches to working with the community to reduce crime and the difficulties involved in gaining support for community policing efforts. The chiefs universally recognize the fundamental need to develop and support their police officers while building strong relationships between the community and the political structure of the city. Opening a window to the day-to-day realities of police leadership, this book offers a realistic view of the challenges of motivating street cops to enforce the law in a way that helps citizens build trust in it and in them.
