Future officers, students, and the general public can learn about how and why we do certain things in this countries war on crime. The focus of interdiction has always been perceived as illegal drugs, but this is just one category in many. The name Criminal Interdiction says a lot. We can make a difference by making our communities a safer place to live. Criminal Interdiction is written by one of the most experienced interdiction officers in the country today. It is not a tell all book, but a guide we can all use to come home safely. Safety is the lead component as you will learn to quickly recognize the dangers of the people who are encountered. Be there as criminals are identified, stopped, the questions are asked, and the body language is recognized. Steve is a State Trooper with the Florida Highway Patrol. He has worked for the FHP for over 28 years. For the last 26 years, he has worked in the Patrols Contraband Interdiction Program as both an interdiction officer and a K-9 officer. He is a certified instructor for the agency in various areas. Steve was a part of FHP's interdiction pilot program which began in 1983. Almost his entire career has been involved in criminal interdiction. Although he is assigned in Florida, he has worked with and assisted the Texas DPS in the Valley, the U.S. Border Patrol and U.S. Customs Inspectors in various regions of the border in Texas and New Mexico. Steve taught as an adjunct instructor for three years for the MCTFT program through St. Petersburg College. He has taught officers in nearly every state of the union courses in highway interdiction and body language.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most policymakers see counterinsurgency and counternarcotics policy as two sides of the same coin. Stop the flow of drug money, the logic goes, and the insurgency will wither away. But the conventional wisdom is dangerously wrongheaded, as Vanda Felbab-Brown argues in Shooting Up. Counternarcotics campaigns, particularly those focused on eradication, typically fail to bankrupt belligerent groups that rely on the drug trade for financing. Worse, they actually strengthen insurgents by increasing their legitimacy and popular support. Felbab-Brown, a leading expert on drug interdiction efforts and counterinsurgency, draws on interviews and fieldwork in some of the world's most dangerous regions to explain how belligerent groups have become involved in drug trafficking and related activities, including kidnapping, extortion, and smuggling. Shooting Up shows vividly how powerful guerrilla and terrorist organizations — including Peru's Shining Path, the FARC and the paramilitaries in Colombia, and the Taliban in Afghanistan — have learned to exploit illicit markets. In addition, the author explores the interaction between insurgent groups and illicit economies in frequently overlooked settings, such as Northern Ireland, Turkey, and Burma. While aggressive efforts to suppress the drug trade typically backfire, Shooting Up shows that a laissez-faire policy toward illicit crop cultivation can reduce support for the belligerents and, critically, increase cooperation with government intelligence gathering. When combined with interdiction targeting major traffickers, this strategy gives policymakers a better chance of winning both the war against the insurgents and the war on drugs.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bribes, Bullets, and Intimidation is the first book to examine drug trafficking through Central America and the efforts of foreign and domestic law enforcement officials to counter it. Drawing on interviews, legal cases, and an array of Central American sources, Julie Bunck and Michael Fowler track the changing routes, methods, and networks involved, while comparing the evolution and consequences of the drug trade through Belize, Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, and Panama over a span of more than three decades. Bunck and Fowler argue that while certain similar factors have been present in each of the Central American states, the distinctions among these countries have been equally important in determining the speed with which extensive drug trafficking has taken hold, the manner in which it has evolved, the amounts of different drugs that have been transshipped, and the effectiveness of antidrug efforts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Unlike much of the existing literature on organised crime, this book is less focused on the problem per se as it is on understanding its implications. The latter, especially in fragile and conflict regions, amount to strategic challenges for the state. Whereas most commentators would agree that criminal activities are harmful, this volume addresses the questions of ‘how?’, ‘for whom?’ and, controversially, ‘are they always harmful?’ The volume is authored by experts with multi-year experience analysing criminal and other non-state activities. They do so through different lenses - conflict and security, development, and technology - engaging academics, practitioners and policy makers. They offer a comprehensive integrated response to the challenges of transnational organised crime beyond traditional law-enforcement driven recommendations.
