ABSTRACT

This study proposes to confirm the hypothesis: Cohesion to a Uniform Training Course by Law Enforcement Officers and/or Crime Scene Investiga*****rs Will Enhance Collected Evidence's Clout in Court as It Increases Accuracy and Decreases Errors. Additionally, it examines and exp*****s on research related to crime scene investigation, as well as, the current need for unified training for police officers and crime scene investigators.

During ***** course of this work, relevant ***** investigative tools, techniques and tactics, currently utilized by police ********** ***** crime scene ***** are identified and discussed. The l*****erature review reveals contemporary thoughts on crime scene **********, while at the same time, answers questions, and yet arouses more questions as to why a uni*****m tr*****ining for this area does not currently exist.

Accur*****ely collecting forensic evidence is a slow methodical process, which th***** researcher contends, could benefit from a uniform tr*****ining course. Mickey Tillman, a forensic investigator states, "Frankly, we don't know what is important. We look in smaller places, then narrow it down to microscopic spaces." ("Piece ***** Piece...," 2006) Perhaps a simil*****r process could be used ***** procure uniform training for officers ***** ***** scene investigators, as ***** would:

Increase the accuracy of collecting evidence.

Increase effectiveness of evidence in court.

Decrease the number of errors committed while processing a crime *****.

A similar process is also used throughout ***** process of completing this study, collecting evidence - piece by *****, and then narrowing in*****mation down to make determinations. At the end of this *****, conclusions from findings retrieved ***** relevant literature ***** this researcher's contentions that a uniform training course for police *****ficers and crime scene investigators in not only *****ed. But will hopefully one day soon, be judged as imperative.

Call for ***** Training in ***** Scene Investigation

Evidence Does Not Confirm That...

***** the most valuable result of all education is the ability to make yourself do the thing you have to *****, when it ought to ***** done, whether you like ***** or not;

it is the first lesson ***** ought ***** be learned;

and however early a m*****n's training begins, its probably the last lesson that he learns thoroughly." (Huxley, 1907)

We, t***** jury, find the defendant, 'Not Guilty,' albeit he *****, in fact, 'Guilty'." Although t*****se words reflect an element of insanity and/or confusion, rather than a "real" verdict a jury would decl*****re, the message could constitute a character's satirical line in a TV spoof. Along the legal line of gathering crime ***** *****, at times, even when an officer or ***** scene investigator has ***** all he/she has been trained to do, evidence issues may not concretely confirm the guilt or innocence of
