Here’s What Happened . . .
Around 12:00 p.m. on September 13, 2004, Fred Smith walked across the road to Bill Jones's house to ask for a ride. Although it was almost fall, it was still very hot outside and Smith needed to pick up money in a neighboring town. Smith didn't want to walk from Centervale to Roan County, so he offered to pay Jones $20.00 for gas and his time to drive Smith to pick up his money. Jones accepted Smith's offer; however, Jones told Smith that he had to pick up a friend at a car repair shop along the way. Jones and Smith drove to Thrifty Repair Shop and picked up Jones's friend, Roger Fish. Fish was not in a hurry that day, so he agreed to ride with the pair to pick up Smith's money.
The trio arrived at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState. Smith exited the car and told Jones and Fish to wait in the car. As Smith walked toward the front of the residence, he yelled to the occupants inside, "You got some weed?" "Yeah," Raynard Jenkins replied from inside the residence. Jenkins greeted Smith at the door and asked him, "What you got?" Smith pulled out a Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum and shot Jenkins in the chest at point-blank range.
As Jenkins was falling toward the ground, Bob Marshall, a local drug dealer, jumped up from the corner of the couch, dropped a large bag of cocaine on the floor, and ran into the kitchen and out the back door. Smith chased Marshall, shot at him twice, but missed him. Smith ran back to the car and yelled to Jones, "Punch it! He tried to smoke (kill) me." The group sped away in a brown Ford Taurus, but were pulled over by Deputy R. W. Dunn approximately five miles from the scene. After coming to a complete stop, Jones threw the gun onto the rear floorboard of the car, next to Fish.
Deputy Dunn approached the car, asked the men to exit the car, and detained them to await another officer's arrival. When the officer was brought to the location where the men were being detained, a witness who saw the shooting identified Jones as the shooter. Smith, Jones, and Fish were arrested, transported to the Roan County Sheriff's Office for additional questioning, and booked into jail on first-degree murder charges.
The Investigation . . .
State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) Special Agent (SA) Pete Moss arrived at the scene at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan County, AnyState, with CSI and SBI SA April Pearson at 1:03 p.m. to assist the Sheriff's Office with investigating the murder of Jenkins and the attempted murder of Marshall. SA Pearson interviewed key witnesses who lived in the immediate area within proximity of the crime scene, while SA Moss began drafting a search warrant. Although the Sheriff's Office had secured the scene around the house, SA Pearson secured an additional larger area that extended into the street. Both the interior and exterior barriers were secured with crime.

MPD conducted a comprehensive crime scene investigation, including photographing and videotaping the crime scene, collecting physical evidence, and gathering fingerprint evidence. The MPD classified the case as a homicide. Following the initial crime scene investigation, MPD detectives conducted an extensive investigation, interviewing many witnesses and following all credible leads.
Although there were multiple signs of blunt wound trauma around the head and face, according to the Metropolis County Medical Examiner, the cause of death was a gunshot wound to the chest. The ME listed the cause of death as homicide.
The MPD eventually arrested William Tanner on suspicion of murder. The evidence indicates that the crime was motivated by an unpaid debt for drugs.
The crime occurred in the city and county of Metropolis.

OJ Simpson was an American football legend After his Hall.pdfadmin447081
O.J. Simpson was an American football legend. After his Hall of Fame playing career, he
maintained his celebrity status by acting in movies, commercials, and working as an analyst on
NBC Football broadcasts. For these, and many other reasons, the murder of his wife, Nicole
Simpson, and a friend, Ron Goldman, in June 1994 dominated the news for more than a year. The
trial, which lasted nearly a year, was broadcast live on television. There were several key pieces of
evidence linking Simpson to the crime, among which was the presence of a bloody glove behind
Simpsons Rockingham estate, which was found by LAPD detective Mark Fuhrman. The glove
matched one found at the scene of the crime and videos from NBC football broadcast showed
Simpson wearing the same type of gloves in the past. Aside from this, blood in Simpsons car and
house matched blood at the scene and, as the prosecution pointed out at trial, Simpson had a
history of abuse toward his wife. Despite this evidence, Simpson was found not guilty. During the
trial, the defense lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, refuted the relevance of Simpsons previous abuse by
claiming that only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually murder their wives. In other
words, Dershowitz suggested that the chance that Simpson was guilty of the crime was quite
small, only 1 in 1000; therefore, no reasonable person should find him guilty based on this
evidence alone. 1. Is Dershowitzs claim only one in a thousand abusive husbands eventually
murder their wives relevant in this instance? If yes, explain why. If not, explain why not. In 1994,
there were about 100 million women in the United States, of which 5000 women were murdered,
1500 by their husbands. Further, crime statistics reveal that about two-thirds of the women who
are murdered by their husbands are abused by them prior to their murder, and that about 1% of all
other women are abused by their husbands. Based on these data, 2. Calculate the probability that,
if a woman is abused, her husband will murder her. Is your answer consistent with the statistic
cited by Dershowitz? 3. Calculate the probability that, if an abused woman gets murdered, her
husband is the murderer..

Presented here is the description of a serial homicide investigation in the 1960s that involved
the sexually motivated murders of seven mostly college-aged women in Michigan. The
discussion provided here draws primarily on Edward Keyes’s, The Michigan Murders.1 The
case is longer and more detailed than the other From the Case File chapter introductions.
It can serve as a capstone discussion of many of the issues covered in Criminal Investigation,
including the basic problems of criminal investigation, the value of eyewitness identifica-
tions, the value of other evidence, the potential value of DNA evidence, how proof can be
established, and the impact of technology on investigations. Questions for discussion and
review are presented at the conclusion of the case.

Capstone CASE
The Coed Murders
The nightmare began on the evening of July 10, 1967,
when nineteen-year-old Mary Fleszar did not return
to her apartment, which was located just a few
blocks from the Eastern Michigan University (EMU)
campus in Ypsilanti, Michigan. Mary was a student at
the university. As is the case in most missing person
investigations, the first task for investigators was to
determine when and where she was last seen. In
reconstructing the last known whereabouts of Mary,
an EMU police officer recalled seeing a girl matching
her description walking near campus at about
8:45 p.m. the night before she was reported missing.
She was alone. Another witness reported he had seen
the girl at about 9:00 p.m. that same night in the same
area, walking on the sidewalk. The witness reported
that a car had driven up next to her and stopped.
According to report the witness gave, the only person
in the vehicle was a young man, and the vehicle was
bluish-gray in color, possibly a Chevy. The witness said
it appeared that the young man inside the car said
something to Mary, she shook her head, and the car
drove off. Shortly thereafter, the same car passed the
witness’s house again and pulled into a driveway in
front of Mary, blocking her path. Mary walked around
the back of the car and continued down the sidewalk.
The car pulled out of the driveway and, tires squealing,
drove down the street. At this point the witness lost
sight of Mary and the vehicle. Mary was never again
seen alive.
On August 7, 1967, a heavily decomposed nude body
was found on farmland two miles north of Ypsilanti.
The body was identified as Mary Fleszar through
dental records. It was clear to investigators that the
cause of death was certainly not natural, accidental,
or suicide, given the area.
There is currently a high profile case going on in Chattanooga TN. I.docxcarmanl5wisc
There is currently a high profile case going on in Chattanooga TN. In this case it happened January 2015 when the suspect Cortez Sims busted into an apartment building in one of our projects and he began shooting. He shot 4 people one which was a one year old child. When police responded they found all four people inside and one of the victims did not survive. All of the victims were transported to the hospital for treatment. The one year old child was paralyzed and the other victims were later released. One of the victims Bianca Horton was fed up with all of the violence going on and decided that she was going to cooperate and began to tell the investigators that she knew the suspect and she would testify against him. The reason that people were scared of Cortez Sims is because he is a big time ranking gang member even though he was 17 at the time. Investigators were able to get enough evidence against Cortez Sims and took out arrest warrants. He was eventually arrested in Knoxville for the quadruple shootings and the murder of one of the victims. When he was arrested he was taken to juvenile. In the Chattanoogan:
Juvenile Court Judge Rob Philyaw on Thursday morning ordered that 17-year-old Cortez Sims be tried as an adult in a College Hill Courts shooting that left one woman dead, a toddler paralyzed, and two others wounded. This was a victory for the prosecution. Police at the time knew that they had a very good case against Cortez Sims because not only did they have physical evidence of him at the crime scene they also had a witness that was going to testify against him. Two years later when the case was going to go to trial, the police responded to yet another shooting.
Bianca Horton, 26, was found
dead
on the side of the road in the 2100 block of Elder Street on the side of Missionary shortly after 9 a.m. with multiple bullet casings on the ground beside her. The mother of four had been a
witness
in the case against the man accused of shooting her daughter (Chattanooga Times Free Press). This was not only a huge blow to the case but it also woke a lot of the people up to the violence that has been going on. The reason that we believe that she was killed was because she was going to testify against Cortez Sims. So how he found out that she was going to testify, and he gave his gang members a green light to have her taken out. As of to this date we have not be able to solve her murder, we have suspects but as of now we cannot prove that they did it. There are many twists that have played out in this case and it set to go to trial this year. The media has been really involved in this case and has been covering every aspect of the case. In this case I really don't think that the investigators or the prosecutors could have seen this coming with the murder of Bianca Horton. We knew that Cortez Sims was a high ranking gang member but were unaware that he had that much power. This case has opened the eyes of many people in the community an.

A key element of social-emotional development during infancy and tod.docxssuser774ad41
A key element of social-emotional development during infancy and toddlerhood is the establishment of bonds of attachment. A child’s temperament can influence the nature of attachment with caregivers. For instance, an infant’s difficult temperament might make it more likely that he or she will develop an insecure attachment to the caregiver. If caregivers receive sufficient social support, thereby establishing a “goodness of fit” between temperament and environment (i.e., parenting), they can overcome some of the challenges of raising a difficult child.
The child’s temperament and the caregiver’s parenting style work in tandem to affect his or her social-emotional and cognitive development. Caregivers who exhibit open displays of warmth and affection and who respond to their children’s needs in a timely manner (thereby acknowledging that each child has some influence on other family members) are likely to socialize their children so that they feel positively about themselves, learn to trust, and are secure with their caregivers. As you examine other parenting styles, think about how the level of caregiver responsiveness affects infant attachment.
To prepare for this assignment, select two parenting styles presented in the Learning Resources.
The assignment: (3
–
4 pages)
Briefly describe the two parenting styles you selected.
Explain two types of attachment you might expect, based on each parenting style you selected.
Then, explain why you chose each type of attachment.
Finally, explain how culture may impact the type of attachment.
Be specific, provide examples, and justify your response with citations from the Learning Resources/literature.

A key element of social-emotional development during infancy and toddlerhood is the establishment of bonds of attachment. A child’s temperament can influence the nature of attachment with caregivers. For instance, an infant’s difficult temperament might make it more likely that he or she will develop an insecure attachment to the caregiver. If caregivers receive sufficient social support, thereby establishing a “goodness of fit” between temperament and environment (i.e., parenting), they can overcome some of the challenges of raising a difficult child.
The child’s temperament and the caregiver’s parenting style work in tandem to affect his or her social-emotional and cognitive development. Caregivers who exhibit open displays of warmth and affection and who respond to their children’s needs in a timely manner (thereby acknowledging that each child has some influence on other family members) are likely to socialize their children so that they feel positively about themselves, learn to trust, and are secure with their caregivers. As you examine other parenting styles, think about how the level of caregiver responsiveness affects infant attachment.
To prepare for this assignment, select two parenting styles presented in the Learning Resources.
The assignment: (3
–
4 pages)
Briefly describe the two parenting styles you selected.
Explain two types of attachment you might expect, based on each parenting style you selected.
Then, explain why you chose each type of attachment.
Finally, explain how culture may impact the type of attachment.
Be specific, provide examples, and justify your response with citations from the Learning Resources/literature.
Support your Application Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.

A fundamental assumption for economic analysis is that economic ag.docxssuser774ad41
A fundamental assumption for economic analysis is that economic agents, be it an individual, a household or a firm/business, tend to make choices and select alternatives rationally. The rational economic choice (decision) implies that
people are driven by the rational pursuit of self-interest, and engaged in economic decisions
to maximize this self-interest.
By
rational economic choice
, economists mean that people try to make the best choice they can, given the available resources at their disposals (money, time, etc.) and information.
Self-interest
is when individuals make economic decisions that are in their own best interest. On the other hand, s
ocial interest
is when choices are made that benefit society as a whole. Economists argue that social interest can be attained by individual decision makers acting in their own self-interest. This process is what Adam Smith called the
invisible hand
, which has been the foundation of the market economy.
Create an example to demonstrate how an individual or firm acting out of self-interest to maximize profits by offering goods or services in economic markets benefit consumers – even if they do not care about them. In other words, how does self-interest help achieve society’s economic goals?
What is the relationship between self-interest and social interest in the economic decision (economic choice) process? Is there a conflict between the two in the economic world

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

This assignment aims for you to evaluate the criminal
investigations process.
Here’s What Happened . . .
Around 12:00 p.m. on September 13, 2004, Fred Smith walked
across the road to Bill Jones's house to ask for a ride. Although
it was almost fall, it was still very hot outside and Smith needed
to pick up money in a neighboring town. Smith didn't want to
walk from Centervale to Roan County, so he offered to pay
Jones $20.00 for gas and his time to drive Smith to pick up his
money. Jones accepted Smith's offer; however, Jones told Smith
that he had to pick up a friend at a car repair shop along the
way. Jones and Smith drove to Thrifty Repair Shop and picked
up Jones's friend, Roger Fish. Fish was not in a hurry that day,
so he agreed to ride with the pair to pick up Smith's money.
The trio arrived at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton, Roan
County, AnyState. Smith exited the car and told Jones and Fish
to wait in the car. As Smith walked toward the front of the
residence, he yelled to the occupants inside, "You got some
weed?" "Yeah," Raynard Jenkins replied from inside the
residence. Jenkins greeted Smith at the door and asked him,
"What you got?" Smith pulled out a Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum
and shot Jenkins in the chest at point-blank range.
As Jenkins was falling toward the ground, Bob Marshall, a local
drug dealer, jumped up from the corner of the couch, dropped a
large bag of cocaine on the floor, and ran into the kitchen and
out the back door. Smith chased Marshall, shot at him twice, but
missed him. Smith ran back to the car and yelled to Jones,
"Punch it! He tried to smoke (kill) me." The group sped away in
a brown Ford Taurus, but were pulled over by Deputy R. W.
2. Dunn approximately five miles from the scene. After coming to
a complete stop, Jones threw the gun onto the rear floorboard of
the car, next to Fish.
Deputy Dunn approached the car, asked the men to exit the car,
and detained them to await another officer's arrival. When the
officer was brought to the location where the men were being
detained, a witness who saw the shooting identified Jones as the
shooter. Smith, Jones, and Fish were arrested, transported to the
Roan County Sheriff's Office for additional questioning, and
booked into jail on first-degree murder charges.
The Investigation . . .
State Bureau of Investigation (SBI) Special Agent (SA) Pete
Moss arrived at the scene at 200 S. Railroad Street, Brysonton,
Roan County, AnyState, with CSI and SBI SA April Pearson at
1:03 p.m. to assist the Sheriff's Office with investigating the
murder of Jenkins and the attempted murder of Marshall. SA
Pearson interviewed key witnesses who lived in the immediate
area within proximity of the crime scene, while SA Moss began
drafting a search warrant. Although the Sheriff's Office had
secured the scene around the house, SA Pearson secured an
additional larger area that extended into the street. Both the
interior and exterior barriers were secured with crime scene
tape. The Sheriff's Office arranged to have the suspects' car
towed to a secure location for processing.
SA Moss completed the search warrant, and Superior Court
Judge Bradley signed it after reviewing it for format, technical
legal aspects, and probable cause. SA Moss returned to the
residence to execute the warrant so SA Pearson could begin to
process the scene. SA Pearson started taking notes when she
started taking photographs. She photographed the scene from
the overall and close-up perspectives. She used a scale (ruler)
with each item of evidence for the second close-up photograph.
3. She conducted a grid search, placed evidence markers beside
certain items of evidence she thought were important, and
rephotographed those items
—
close-up and close-up with scale perspectives this time. She
maintained notes about various aspects of the scene throughout
the photographing process. SA Pearson drew a sketch with
every item of evidence in the sketch and measured everything
secured in the immediate barrier. She did not sketch the second
barrier that included the road. She drew several sketches of each
room of the house independently.
SA Moss enlisted the help of the Sheriff's Office detectives to
assist with the lead sheet development. Three leads came in. SA
Moss assigned each lead to a detective for follow-up. Detective
Mark Rolland followed up on information about the Jenkins'
family. Detective Erin Norse checked out a lead about Jenkins
talking about killing Smith. Detective John Roberts followed a
lead about Fish selling drugs from the car repair shop. Each
detective interviewed his witness and typed up his notes. They
threw away their notes after they were finished because they
didn't need them anymore and what the witnesses said was in
their typed-up versions now. SA Moss checked off the witnesses
one by one and shredded the lead sheet once all witnesses had
been accounted for.
The investigation revealed that Smith was seen running after
Marshall while shooting at him and that Jones was driving the
getaway car. Numerous witnesses reported hearing several
gunshots before they saw Smith running and shooting at
Marshall. The crime scene evidence appeared to indicate, upon
cursory review, that Jenkins was shot once in the chest in the
doorway of his home. It also appeared that Jenkins was
conscious for a period of time after suffering the gunshot
wound, because SA Pearson observed swipe bloodstain patterns
in the blood near his head. SA Pearson used a gridding method
4. to map the bloodstain evidence, labeled the stains, and took at
least two swabs from each stain she selected. She photographed
the bloodstain evidence; took notes of the stains she swabbed,
along with specific measurements; and took gel lifts of
particular stains. No projectiles were recovered at the scene or
from the autopsy. No shell casings were recovered at the scene.
SA Pearson also recovered the large, clear plastic bag
containing a white, powdery substance that Marshall dropped on
the floor as he ran from the house. The crime laboratory
recovered Marshall's fingerprints from the plastic bag and
matched them to his Ten-Print Card from a previous arrest.
SA Moss attempted to interview Smith, but Smith asked, "How
much time can someone get for something like this?" and then
asked for a lawyer. Agent Moss responded, "A significant
amount of time." Smith laid his head on the table and went to
sleep. Jones and Fish gave the same account of what happened
by claiming that Smith got out of the car and walked up to the
door. Then, they heard several shots, and then Smith ran back to
the car with a gun and said someone tried to "smoke" him. The
trio was booked into the local jail. Jones and Fish posted bail,
but Smith was denied bond.
SA Pearson recovered the Ruger SP101 .357 Magnum from the
rear floorboard the next day, pursuant to a second search
warrant issued for the suspects' car. She noticed a reddish-
brown substance on the barrel of the firearm. SA Pearson placed
the firearm in a plastic bag, sealed it, put the bag in a plastic
tote, and put the tote in her trunk. Then, SA Pearson noticed a
brownish-red substance consistent with the color of blood on
the passenger side door. SA Pearson took two swabs of the stain
using a sterile swab and distilled water. One tested positive for
blood by a presumptive test called phenolphthalein. SA Pearson
allowed the other swab to dry thoroughly and placed it into a
sterile envelope for confirmatory testing and DNA testing at the
5. crime lab.
Here’s What You Need to Do . . .
You have been asked by the sheriff to evaluate the
investigation: What was done correctly, what was done
incorrectly, what is missing from the investigation, what was
done well, what wasn't done well, what can be done better next
time, why what was done incorrectly, not at all, etc., is a
problem, and other aspects relevant to evaluation.
Murder investigations are extremely complex. They demand
forward-thinking, analytical-thinking investigators who
understand what it takes to do things right at a crime scene.
Identify, define, describe, and examine the terms related to a
criminal investigation that are used throughout the story and
investigation sections of the LASA.
Research criminal investigation processes. First, compare your
research with the process described above. Then, evaluate the
process these investigators used to investigate this murder and
attempted murder—what they did well versus what they did not
do well, etc.—and offer suggestions for what they could do to
improve their investigatory process.
Analyze the crime scene investigation conducted by SA
Pearson. What aspects of her investigation were performed
properly? Improperly? Why?
Illustrate and explain how documenting a crime scene relates to
the courtroom presentation of a case. What happens if a case
becomes a cold case and it is not solved for thirty years? What
components would you as a prosecutor want to have to show a
jury if you had to prosecute this case thirty years after it
happened?
For the report, use Times New Roman, 12-point font. Provide
citations for the references in the APA style.
