Capstone Scenario
On March 12, 2014, at approximately 2200 hours, the
Sunnyville, Utah Police Department received a 911 call of an
armed robbery at 201 SE 2nd Ave. Upon the police arriving on
scene, Victim 1, Luke Roberts, had been shot in the head and
deceased. Victim 2, Liam O'Neil, was pistol-whipped. Both
victims were robbed of their cell phones and wallets at
gunpoint. Liam O'Neil was able to identify both suspects and
the getaway vehicle. A short distance away, police stopped the
suspect vehicle with two Caucasian males that matched the
description provided by Mr. O'Neil. After the two suspects were
positively identified, they were arrested and brought to the
police station for interviews.
Before the police interviewed the suspects, they read them their
Miranda rights. Suspect 1 refused to speak to the police,
invoked his Miranda rights, and stated that he wanted a lawyer.
The police began asking Suspect 2 specific questions about the
crime. Suspect 2 stated “I’m not sure I should talk to you,” but
then hesitantly proceeded to answers questions, making several
incriminating statements.
The police conducted a second interview. As Suspect 2, Keith
Hopkins, waited for the detective to speak to him again, he
appeared to be deleting messages from his phone. As the second
interview began, Hopkins admitted to hiding the stolen property
from both victims inside his residence located at 1106 SE 9th

3. Ave. He stated that the victim's property was hidden in a
laundry basket in his bedroom. He also stated that Suspect 1,
Steve Chapman, hid the gun used in the robbery in the attic of
his house under the insulation. You suspected that there may
also be additional evidence in the house, but Keith Hopkins will
no longer provide you with any information. The police asked
Mr. Hopkins for consent to search his residence, but he
immediately remembered an episode of his favorite police show
and refused to give you permission to search his house for the
evidence.
After completing a thorough investigation into the robbery and
serving your search warrant, both of your suspects were found
guilty at trial. The next step of the Criminal Justice System (the
sentencing phase) will begin. Because victim Roberts was shot
in the head and killed, the State is seeking the death penalty for
Steve Chapman. He has an extensive violent criminal history
(convicted felon), and shows no remorse for victim Roberts or
his family.
As the lead detective, you have completed your investigation
into the robbery and homicide. You have served the search
warrant and found all of the evidence that you were looking for.
You and your team have collected all of the evidence and
interviewed witnesses, the victim, and the suspects.
Both suspects had a lengthy history with drugs and alcohol.
Both suspects have been in drug treatment several times. They
have had no success in recovering from their addictions. It was
also determined that both suspects were under the influence of
drugs and alcohol at the time of the robbery.
Suspect Hopkins is now being sentenced to life in prison for his
involvement in the robbery. The State’s Attorney has taken into
consideration Keith Hopkins’ cooperation in the investigation,
as well as his remorse for the victims.
