Upon interception of the crime, the first responder will be confronted with various types of evidence including digital and electronic evidence. Why is digital and electronic evidence important to a first responder? There is information generated in the process of using mobile phones or computers which is stored in these devices that is of potential evidentiary value. This information and the devices in which it is stored are fragile and hence, the first responder needs to understand the process of collecting, preserving and submitting it for forensic examination. This Guide is intended to assist frontline wildlife law enforcers upon whom the responsibility of preserving a crime scene and collecting evidence may fall, if there is no investigator available. The guide addresses the handling of digital and electronic evidence in hopes that the first responders will be able to collect and preserve this very important form of evidence for successful wildlife crime investigations and prosecutions.

Customs officers sometimes come across wildlife crimes during the course of their duties. They arrest offenders and prosecute them. However, in order to strengthen their cases and get convictions, they need to handle wildlife crime cases and evidence resulting from wildlife crimes in a proper manner and in accordance to the law. Mismanaging cases and mishandling evidence can lead to acquittals of offenders which is not ideal as the aim is to deter offenders. This Handbook provides reference materials and information for trainees on training modules and content to assist them to properly manage wildlife crime cases and handle evidence in such a way that it is admissible in court and leads to the desired case outcomes. The Handbook has seven modules that address the basics of wildlife crime and wildlife laws and then delves deeper into more technical subjects of wildlife crime investigations and prosecution. The modules also tackle human rights in law enforcement as this is an emerging issue facing any law enforcer handling persons who come in conflict with the law.

Download or read book World Wildlife Crime Report 2020 written by United Nations Publications and published by UN. This book was released on 2021-03-31 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The report presents the latest assessment of global trends in wildlife crime. It includes discussions on illicit rosewood, ivory, rhino horn, pangolin scales, live reptiles, tigers and other big cats, and European eel. The COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic has highlighted that wildlife crime is a threat not only to the environment and biodiversity, but also to human health, economic development and security. Zoonotic diseases - those caused by pathogens that spread from animals to humans - represent up to 75% of all emerging infectious diseases. Trafficked wild species and the resulting products offered for human consumption, by definition, escape any hygiene or sanitary control, and therefore pose even greater risks of infection.

Download or read book Hypercrime written by Michael McGuire and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2007-12-06 with total page 631 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hypercrime develops a new theoretical approach toward current reformulations in criminal behaviours, in particular the phenomenon of cybercrime. Emphasizing a spatialized conception of deviance, one that clarifies the continuities between crime in the traditional, physical context and developing spaces of interaction such as a 'cyberspace', this book analyzes criminal behaviours in terms of the destructions, degradations or incursions to a hierarchy of regions that define our social world. Each chapter outlines violations to the boundaries of each of these spaces - from those defined by our bodies or our property, to the more subtle borders of the local and global spaces we inhabit. By treating cybercrime as but one instance of various possible criminal virtualities, the book develops a general theoretical framework, as equally applicable to the, as yet unrealized, technologies of criminal behaviour of the next century, as it is to those which relate to contemporary computer networks. Cybercrime is thereby conceptualized as one of a variety of geometries of harm, merely the latest of many that have extended opportunities for illicit gain in the physical world. Hypercrime offers a radical critique of the narrow conceptions of cybercrime offered by current justice systems and challenges the governing presumptions about the nature of the threat posed by it. Runner-up for the British Society of Criminology Book Prize (2008).

Download or read book Twenty one Mental Models That Can Change Policing written by Renée J. Mitchell and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2021-09-16 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book goes beyond other police leadership books to teach practitioners how to think about policing in a structured way that synthesizes criminological theory, statistics, research design, applied research, and what works and what doesn’t in policing into Mental Models. A Mental Model is a representation of how something works. Using a Mental Model framework to simplify complex concepts, readers will take away an in-depth understanding of how cognitive biases affect our ability to understand and interpret data, what empirical research says about effective police interventions, how statistical data should be structured for management meetings, and how to evaluate interventions for efficiency and effectiveness. While evidence-based practice is critical to advancing the police profession, it is limited in scope, and is only part of what is necessary to support sustainable change in policing. Policing requires a scientifically based framework to understand and interpret data in a way that minimizes cognitive bias to allow for better responses to complex problems. Data and research have advanced so rapidly in the last several decades that it is difficult for even the most ambitious of police leaders to keep pace. The Twenty-one Mental Models were synthesized to create a framework for any police, public, or community leader to better understand how cognitive bias contributes to misunderstanding data and gives the reader the tools to overcome those biases to better serve their communities. The book is intended for a wide range of audiences, including law enforcement and community leaders; scholars and policy experts who specialize in policing; students of criminal justice, organizations, and management; reporters and journalists; individuals who aspire to police careers; and citizen consumers of information about policing. Anyone who is going to make decisions about their communities based on data has a responsibility to be numerate and this book Twenty-one Mental Models That Can Change Policing: A Framework For Using Data and Research For Overcoming Cognitive Bias, will help you become just that.
