Most crimes applicable to citizens are covered under state or federal
statutes. Upon completion of this assignment, you will be able to
locate your state statutes, search within them a variety of crimes, and
decipher their elements.
Tasks:
For this assignment, you are required to prepare a 10-slide Microsoft
PowerPoint presentation with speaker notes incorporating the content
in the reading assignments for this week and material from your state
statutes.
Statutes are the laws unique to the state where you live and are passed
by the legislature. You are not to use the federal statutes passed by
Congress. Start your research on your state home page on the Internet.
Look for a link to the state statutes. Another alternative is to do a
search, for example, for Colorado state statutes, on the Internet.
Once you have located the state statutes, you will search for crimes
against property or crimes against persons. Another alternative is to
search for the particular crimes after you have completed your reading
assignments in the textbook.
In your presentation, you will include:
 Five slides on crimes against persons
 Five slides on crimes against property
You will establish the elements of each of the crimes and explain
whether the crime is a felony or a misdemeanor.
In addition, you will include a slide at the end of your presentation for
your references in the APA format, as is required for all Argosy
assignments. Refer to your Argosy Handbook or APA materials to
properly cite your text and your state statutes. On your state judicial

2. branch home page, there may also be information on how to cite the
state statutes.

You are a rookie law enforcement officer in training. You are
assigned to work with a seasoned patrol officer named Roberto, who
has been on the job for 15 years. You and Roberto are working the
11:00pm to 7:00am and the local bars have just closed at 2:00am. At
approximately 2:20am, a neighbor called to report a potential
domestic dispute located at an address Roberto is aware of because
neighbors have called in two other domestic disputes in the last two
months. Loud voices can be heard as you arrive on scene. You and
Roberto approach the residence with caution. You knock on the door,
identify yourselves as a law enforcement officers, and the music is
turned off from inside the residence. A woman answers the door bent
over and bleeding from the mouth as a car starts in the driveway and
speeds off. Roberto reacts quickly by running back to the police
cruiser, leaves the scene, and stops the vehicle a short distance from
the residence.
You record information Sarah provides about the domestic dispute
between her and her boyfriend. Roberto interviews Sarah's boyfriend
who drove away in the vehicle, but his story varies from Sarah's
considerably. Sarah reluctantly tells you that she is afraid that a filing
a report will only cause more trouble for her. Sarah refuses to file the
report, refuses medical treatment, and asks to be left alone. Roberto
returns to the residence, offers Sarah contact information of an
anonymous domestic violence hotline, and gives her his contact
information if she decides she wants to file charges. Two days later
the officers are called to the home again, but this time Sarah has a
broken arm. Sarah chooses to file charges against her boyfriend this
time; he is arrested and taken to jail.

that Juan was the instigator. During the investigation, a drug dog

enforcement and a group of young adults who felt Juan's arrest was
racially motivated.
