摘要附注:

This book describes criminal investigation from the beginning stages through the more advanced techniques for handling cases involving all major crimes. The book covers preparing cases for presentation to the prosecutor, a grand jury, or a court of law. It features material on the latest laboratory services, sources of investigative information, and scientific techniques to assist the investigator. The book claims it is essential that investigators have knowledge of the various combinations of elements that constitute the basic criminal laws. In addition, investigators should develop proficiency in evaluating complaints received from the public. The first officers arriving should isolate the crime scene, and the scene should be evaluated as to the need for laboratory or other specialists and for selection of a standard search method. Victims and witnesses must be separated for independent interviews. The book contains 17 chapters, each devoted to a specific aspect of the criminal investigation. Each chapter includes a summary, discussion questions, and key terms and concepts. Figures, tables, glossary, index.
