Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Traditionally, forensic investigation has not been fully utilized in the investigation of property crime. This ground-breaking book examines the experiences of patrol officers, command staff, detectives, and chiefs as they navigate the expectations of forensic evidence in criminal cases, specifically property crimes cases. DNA and Property Crime Scene Investigation looks at the current state of forensic technology and, using interviews with police officers, command staff, forensic technicians, and prosecutors, elucidates who is doing the work of forensic investigation. It explores how better training can decrease backlogs in forensic evidence processing and prevent mishandling of crucial evidence. Concluding with a police chief’s perspective on the approach, DNA and Property Crime Scene Investigation provides insight into an emerging and important approach to property crime scene investigation. Key Features Provides practical information on implementing forensic investigation for property crimes Examines the current state of forensic technology and points to future trends Includes a police chief’s perspective on the forensic approach to investigating property crimes Utilizes interviews with professionals in the field to demonstrate the benefits of the approach

I truly believe this book is essential in assisting criminal investigators and a valuable resource for managing evidence."—Jeremiah Sullivan, Chairman, Board of Directors, Texas Division of the International Association for Identification; Senior Crime Scene Specialist (Retired). Austin Police Department As technology and technical applications continue to advance in the forensic sciences, the undertakings at crime scenes have become even more critical.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Passion {poison} often makes fools of clever men; sometimes even makes clever men of fools. La Rochefoucauld This book represents a pioneering work dealing exclusively with poi sons in the hands of the murderer, tamperer, and terrorist. One of the oldest offensive killing weapons developed by humanity, after the stick, stone, and fist, were the poisons. Yet, after nearly 5000 years of recorded history I no in-depth work has ever been produced dealing exclusively with poisons as weapons for homicide. The author's review of the intemationalliterature has revealed only a few scattered scientific papers dealing with the psychology of the poisoner I and books on medical jurisprudence and forensic investiga tion have devoted only a few pages to this important subject, usually stating that it is a rare " " occurrence. How do we know the true rarity of the use of poisons for homicide? All one has to do is look at the number of poisonings that are first documented only after the exhu mation of the deceased to raise the logical question: If we missed this one, how many more have been missed? If all those buried in our cemeteries who had been poisoned could raise their hands, we would probably be aghast at the numbers! For years, the homicidal poisoner has remained shrouded in mys tery.

Book excerpt: In recent years forensic DNA evidence has been used by agencies and actors in the criminal justice system more and more frequently to both convict the guilty and exonerate the innocent. Cases that previously may have been unsolveable have been transformed into solvable cases where viable suspects can be identified and arrested or removed from suspect lists. This book presents examinations of how DNA, and some other forensic methods, are being used by our justice system and the issues that surround these uses.
