Category: Criminal Justice

I have included the instructions given by my professor. The reference materials are provided as well.

I have attached the reading and 4 questions that should be answered in 3 to 4 sentences each. Please use the textbook Managing Human Resources 19th Edition by Scott Snell for your reference when answering each question. More instructions can be found below. One Integrative Case will be assigned each week. These cases and the questions will be available via Cengage under the respective chapter but will also be linked in the corresponding weekly module in Canvas. Students should respond to the questions at the end of each assigned case in essay format by typing their answers, citing information from the textbook, and considering possible correlating situations in the field of Criminal Justice. APA style must be utilized for citations. Students will be graded on the thoroughness of answers, sentence structure, proper use of English Grammar, and use of citations

Overview: The goal of crime scene documentation is to create a visual record that will allow the forensics lab and the prosecuting attorney to easily recreate an accurate view of the scene. In this assignment, you will create a mock crime scene and document it with photography and notes.
• Download the Crime Scene Documentation template.
• Create a mock crime scene using items around the house.
The type of crime is your choice.
Place at least three items of evidence in the crime scene.
• Document the crime scene. Keep in mind that crime scene documentation is an important part of building the case and an integral part of the investigation, and without these methods the findings of the investigation could come into question. Think about what is expected to be done when taking notes and photographing the evidence and that the documentation is important.
Take a minimum of 10 photographs of the scene, including: ▪ 7 overall photos of the crime scene ▪
For each piece of evidence, take the following photos:
• 1 medium range • 1 close range without scale
• 1 close range with scale ▪
Take notes as to the time/date that the crime scene occurred, any details of the crime that you note from the scene, and information on each item of evidence collected. This should be roughly a half page of notes about the crime scene. ▪ Fill out the required information in the Request for Examination of Physical Evidence:
• Basic information, including Agency Case #, Incident Town, Incident Date, Incident Type.
• Summary of the case.

As you start to investigate the Juvenile Justice field, you will find many topics of interest. This paper will be a topic that interests you in the Criminal Justice field pertaining to Juvenile Justice.
Instructions: • Use the required text as a guide to identify your topic.
Choose a topic in the Juvenile Justice field relating to the topics covered in the course.
• Explain in a paragraph why you are interested in this topic.
• Discuss the current state of your topic in the Juvenile Justice field as well as some of the unresolved or controversial issues that might be present.

In this assignment you will investigate emerging use-of-force technologies in law enforcement, and evaluate the effectiveness of simulation technology in use-of-force training.
Submit the assignment as a single Word file through the plagiarism detection software Turnitin, in Canvas.
From the videos posted in the lecture (not the one about the FAU simulator. Do not include information about that one in this section, it is for the next section. Only use, and incorporate into your answers, the other linked videos) :
You must show evidence from the videos and cite them:
Describe at least three benefits of using simulators for a non-law enforcement audience. Are these useful tools for non-law enforcement? Explain your answer, using information from the videos and notes.
Did the videos change your mind about any police use-of-force issues? If not, can you see how they might for others?
What technologies might be more useful for a non-police audience to learn about police use of force realities?
From the video about the FAU SCCJ/FAUPD simulator:
Again, you must show evidence that you watched the video.
Do you see this as a useful tool for an academic department? Why or why not?
What are some potential groups that might benefit from using this tool? Explain why.
What aspects of this technology do you think are useful for training? Which might not be so useful?
Develop a scenario that you think might be a useful training scenario. Please include the potential audience (police, social worker, community leader, new driver, etc. The sky is the limit). What are some branching options? Tools available (handgun, taser, etc.)?
Given the realities of undergraduate classes at FAU, such as class sizes of 50-70 students being the norm, and a significant proportion offered online, how would you suggest we incorporate this technology in classes so that students might benefit from it?

Overview
Many issues in the United States are focused on the application of force in the field of law enforcement. Questions have been raised as to whether criminal justice professionals are applying the least amount of force necessary to gain compliance from an unwilling subject. Because of several recent controversies surrounding the use of deadly force and the treatment of individuals in police custody, many members of society have been extremely critical of the use of force. These controversial issues have created a negative public perception of law enforcement officers, and there have been demonstrations and calls for reform in both the training and hiring of police officers.
For this assignment, you will first read and analyze the Graham v. Connor court decision. This decision is the seminal case that articulates when and how use-of-force situations will be reviewed and judged. As you read the case, consider who the key stakeholders are (police officers, police departments, citizens, etc.) in the controversy and how this issue impacts the field of criminal justice.
Prompt
After reading the case, write a brief in which you address the elements listed below. This case brief will help you address the impact of similar decisions in studying your own issue analysis for the final project. Set up your brief as the sample case brief is set up, and include the answers to the questions in the Analysis section of the brief.
Facts: State the facts of the case and why the case went to trial.
Issue: State what is at issue in the case.
Ruling: State the court’s ruling in the case.
Analysis: This section contains the bulk of the brief. In your analysis, address the following:
In this case, what standard did the court use to determine whether the use of force was reasonable? For instance, what did the court say about judging the objective reasonableness of the use of force?
What perspective did the court use in determining whether the officer acted appropriately in the use of force? What did the court say about using hindsight to determine objective reasonableness?
What strategies do you believe should be employed to make sure officers are applying the correct amount of force in any given situation?
Analyze the connection between the issue of use of force and what criminological theory contributed to the understanding—or misunderstanding—of these issues.
Conclusion: Conclude the case brief by summarizing your analysis.
Reference your textbook reading as well as the case material in your submission. To facilitate this task, refer to the Sample Case Brief document.
What to Submit
Your submission should be at least 1 page in length (in addition to title and reference pages). It should use single spacing, 12-point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Follow APA style for in-text citations and the reference list.

Briefly discuss the effectiveness of consent decrees and Section 14141 of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994. In doing so, describe the legal provision that allowed the Department of Justice DOJ to intervene when allegations are made that constitutional policing is not followed as a matter of patterns and practices.
Note: The essay response should reflect upper-level undergraduate writing per current APA standards. The essay response is to include in-text citation(s) in proper APA format. In-text citations are to correspond to each listed source in the correct APA format listed after the essay response (APA, 2020).

The final report should be a formal research report written in
the format/style traditional of a scholarly empirical paper. The basic outline that students would see in
research articles encountered in their literature review. This paper is scored holistically (as a whole) with close
attention given to the listed parts.
The paper should be a coherent whole that explains the specific subject, especially your dependent concept,
previous research about that concept, the theory you are testing, the variables used to test the theory, the
hypothesis of the relationship between variables, the research method and data source for those variables,
how you analyzed the hypothesis (cross-tabulation), what you concluded about the hypothesis from the
analysis, and what we learn about the theory and general subject from your research. Finally, you should
explain how future research could be done that would improve the testing of your theory in terms of research
design, sampling, and measurement.. In it, you compose a refined
and edited account of your project in a traditional research manuscript format using the information that you
have developed throughout the CIA project. It will be in a form typical for empirical research reports. As you
read research articles for this class, pay attention to the order and content of the various sections so you will
be familiar with this.
Use APA format for the final paper
including cover page style, abstract, tables, and especially citations and references. Double-space the
manuscript (not tables) and use 12 pt font.
Cover Page
• Should include an original title that describes your research topic; then the normal identifying
information for a college paper (author(s), date, class….)
Abstract
• Although first in the paper, the abstract is written last. It is the brief summary of your project,
approximately 100 words.
Introduction
• Generally short, one to two pages. Summarizes the subject, your research question, and why it’s
important.
Literature Review
• Summarizes the past scholarly research most closely related to your own theory and hypothesis. Task
2 should have provided a start, but you may need more or different articles to explain current
knowledge of your topic. Start by explaining how your searched for literature (e.g. the databases that
you searched via the library). Use APA style citation. Summarize in your own words, not copying or
close paraphrasing. Do not rely solely on sequential summaries of the research reports that you
found; instead, synthesize their findings overall. Reading literature reviews in other research articles
should help you understand what this means.
Theory
• Explain the theory that you expect is the best explanation for your subject matter. In particular, what
explains differences or changes in your dependent concept. Be sure to include concepts that will be
represented by your independent variable and your control variable. Your literature review should
help you with a more comprehensive theory, although you are testing just a narrow portion of it.
Place your causal model diagram here as well.
Research Methods
• This section explains in detail how your data was collected and where it came from (sample). Since
you are using a secondary data source, you essentially are using the explanation provided. You should
also explain precisely what questions were asked for your variables, and the responses available. This
section also includes an explanation of how you believe your variables (DV, IV, and CV) represent
major concepts in your theory. Plus, explain to your reader what kind of analysis technique you are
using.
Hypothesis
• This short section should concisely articulate your hypothesis. Your hypothesis is not a generic
statement that may have been used early in the semester. It should be stated in terms of the
categories of your variables. For example, a larger percentage of respondents in one category of your
IV will report higher values for your DV compared to other categories of your IV.
Analysis
• You state again what kind of analysis you are using and the variables. If you recoded the variables,
explain the recoding. Then you provide the descriptive statistics for your variables (e.g. central
tendency, dispersion, or frequency distribution). Next, explain and provide the zero-order
crosstabulation table, and identify whether it supported your hypothesis. Finally, provide the first-
order crosstabulation tables, and identify whether each of those supports the hypothesis.
Discussion of conclusions
• This section should briefly explain three things. (A) Was your hypothesis supported, and if so, strongly
or weakly? Is the conclusion contingent on some values of the control variable? (B) Does it lend
support to the theory or not? (C) What does it suggest in the bigger scheme of science, society, law, or
policy? In other words, why does it matter?
Recommendations for future research (see Task 5, 7, & 8
• Do your findings suggest other research questions that should be pursued in the future to better
understand what this topic in broad terms?
• Because you were constrained to use the GSS data, explain how future research on your theory could
be improved. Refer to your suggestions about design, sampling, and measures for the basis of this
material.
Works Cited
• Using APA style, you will include a works cited list with complete references for the literature review as
well as any other material used in this research document to include a reference for the SDA and GSS.
I included the citations I am supposed to use and also we are used the sda.berkley.edu aka SDA and GSS data sets.
I used natcrime and INCOME as my two variables and did a crosstab narrowing down the income ratios to 0-25,000; 25,001-50,000; and above 50,000.

Identify 3 key areas in which private security differs from public police. Discuss why is it important to distinguish between the two. Explain if you agree private security add value in assisting public law enforcement.
