This document discusses the use of forensic DNA evidence in improving criminal justice in Rwanda. It notes that while DNA technology has been widely used around the world to help solve complex crimes, it has not been fully utilized in Rwanda's criminal justice system due to several factors. These include DNA and its use not being included in legal education curricula, a lack of DNA legislation, and insufficient forensic infrastructure like modern DNA labs. The document argues that introducing DNA topics to legal education, enacting DNA laws, and improving forensic facilities would help the criminal justice system in Rwanda make better use of DNA evidence to further fairness and accuracy in crime solving.

Investigating and Prosecuting Cyber Crime - Forensic Dependencies and Barrier...Cameron Brown
This document summarizes an article that investigates barriers to prosecuting cyber crimes. It discusses how cyber crimes can be complex and challenges include cross-border nature of offenses, differences between legal frameworks of countries, and ways criminals hide their identities online. The article analyzes how these factors hamper investigations and convictions. It uses a case study to illustrate how a cyber crime may progress through the criminal justice system. The author argues stakeholders like police, prosecutors, judges need better understanding of technology to effectively handle cyber crime cases. Recommendations are made to remove barriers and streamline the criminal justice process for these offenses.
Cybercrime, criminal justice and the funnel effectCameron Brown
The document discusses the challenges faced by law enforcement in investigating and prosecuting cybercrime due to the "funnel effect". It aims to identify factors that impede the criminal justice system in dealing with cybercrime, including difficulties obtaining electronic evidence, quantifying incidents, and jurisdictional issues. The document also examines techniques used by cybercriminals to evade detection like anonymity networks, encryption, and hiding in jurisdictions with lax laws.
Washington State implemented video visitation in all of its prisons in an effort to increase contact between incarcerated individuals and their loved ones. Video visitation allows visitors to have face-to-face interactions via video chat rather than just phone calls. It aims to reduce the isolation of incarcerated individuals by providing an alternative to in-person visits, which can be difficult due to the distance of the prisons from communities and the costs of travel. However, there are also concerns about the high costs of video visitation for incarcerated individuals and their families. The report examines Washington State's experience in depth to understand the costs of implementation and operation as well as the experiences of users.

Real or physical evidence
Physical evidence refers to anything that can be used as prove to a crime that happened and is connected to the criminal. Some examples of physical evidence include a knife that has blood on it, shoe impression, fingerprints, DNA, weapons, documents or glass. Real evidence describes evidence that is tangible and is often used interchangeably with physical evidence.
It is used to describe the items that are collected as prove arguments at a trial or hearing. Physical evidence has a wide variety of issues. This research report will focus on exploring fingerprints and DNA as aspects of physical evidence. The report will also examine the strategies, advancements and innovations in the criminal evidence regarding to fingerprints and DNA.
A search for fingerprints is usually done on a body before it is moved to the mortuary since it is also a source of physical evidence. The technology used in collecting the fingerprints and analyzing them has been refined from one decade to the other. Fingerprints are necessary as individualizing evidence since they can link an individual to crime due to their uniqueness. There are no people who have the same fingerprints.
Identification is made when a fingerprint from a crime scene is linked to another one from a suspect or a database. DNA is a new technology that allows the crime investigators to match the biological samples acquired from a crime scene to a criminal. DNA evidence is admissible in court and therefore is frequently used. The evidence is linked to DNA profiles of offenders through national, state and local DNA databases known as the Combined DNA Index System (CODIS).

Real evidence consists of physical items involved in a criminal case that a jury can examine, such as fingerprints, blood samples, weapons, or other objects related to the crime. To be admitted in court, real evidence must be relevant, material, and authenticated through establishing a clear chain of custody. Fingerprint evidence can play an important role by linking suspects to crime scenes or ruling them out through fingerprint database matching. DNA fingerprinting reveals an individual's unique genetic makeup and is used for criminal identification, determining biological relationships, and medical purposes such as matching organ donors.

analyze certain bodily substances and compare them widi a sample from a suspect.
Forensic science consultant Richard Saferstein tells us that portions of the DNA structure are as unique to each individual as fingerprints. He writes that inside each of the 60 trillion cells in the human body are strands of genetic material called chromosomes. Arranged along the chromosomes, like beads on a thread, are nearly 100,000 genes. Genes are the fundamental unit of heredity. They instruct the body cells to make proteins drat determine everydiing from hair color to susceptibility to diseases. Each gene is actually composed of DNA specifically designed to carry out a single body function. Scientists have determined that DNA is die substance by which genetic instructions are passed from one generation to the next. (Saferstein 353-394)
DNA profiling has helped investigators solve crimes and ensure that diose guilty of crimes are convicted in court. Profiling is the examination of DNA samples from a body substance or fluid to determine whether they came from a particular subject. For example, semen on a rape victim's clothing can be positively or negatively compared with a suspect's semen.

This document discusses how data mining can be used as an active solution for crime investigation in Nigeria. It suggests that law enforcement agencies could analyze large volumes of data using data mining techniques to detect patterns related to criminal activities and predict future crime trends. Specifically, data mining algorithms could be used to cluster populations sizes to impute missing values, cluster changes in crime rates between years to forecast future trends, and detect deceptive identities by criminals through comparing identity fields across criminal records. The goal is to help security agencies prevent, arrest, and investigate crimes like terrorism more effectively.
The document discusses DNA forensic studies and DNA databases. It summarizes that experts conclude DNA forensic expertise should be extended beyond specialists to all law enforcement and the public. DNA can help solve cases but more evidence is sometimes needed to secure a conviction. DNA databases can help solve crimes but also raise privacy concerns as innocent people's DNA could be tracked. The pros and cons of DNA databanks are debated as they could help solve crimes but may invade privacy.

Critical Analysis of Admissibility of Forensic Evidence in the Indian Crimina...ijtsrd
is believed that forensics plays an important role in finding out the criminal and it has been legally operated. Forensic is a process by which it helps in the discovery of the crime and the criminal. The admissibility of evidence by the forensic experts and their analysis of a particular crime can be done in accordance with the evidence law. The forensic experts play an important role by following certain techniques by collecting the particular materials from the crime scene and preserving them further to investigate the crime. The collected materials will be categorized by the forensic experts which in turn helps to find the crime. In certain circumstances, the collection and preservation of the materials are not done by the experts properly as to a lack of knowledge or the influence of the external elements. Further, there are certain legal constraints in accordance with the criminal investigation being carried out by the experts and the officials. The legal constraints start from the discovery, search, and protection of forensic evidence till the investigation. This affects the proper legal action against the criminal and the evidence which are supposed to be produced in the court of law. The researcher would analyse the admissibility of evidence in a court of law as to its relevance, authenticity, and issue on it as evidence is subject to the legal constraints and its applicability of it.

Technology is advancing in every aspect of the criminal justice system, from the investigation to the prosecution of the crimes. Crime fighting methodologies have the potential to greatly assist law enforcement in the war on crime. Some experts even think that some software and tools will be able to help prevent crime. (Yeung, n.d.). Methodologies, such as mandating DNA collection programs, biometrics, and implementing cybercrime spyware programs are on the list of the next big things of the future, when it comes to fighting crime. DNA testing helps law enforcement investigate and prosecute crimes, as well as clear the names of those who have been wrongfully convicted. There are currently about twenty states with laws requiring DNA collection at the time of the person’s arrest. The federal government also has this requirement. As, with any controversial subject, DNA testing has its critics. Some are saying that DNA testing is in violation of the Fourth Amendment, especially for those who have not been convicted of a crime. Others are concerned that DNA testing may open the doors for abuse of the genetic information being stored in the databases. (Berson, n.d.). Biometrics are automated methods of recognizing a person based on physiological or behavioral characteristics. Some of the features measured using biometrics are handwriting, voice, iris, hand geometry, vein, retinal, and fingerprints. Biometric based solutions provide personal data privacy, and confidential financial transactions, and are starting to become the foundation of an extensive array of highly secure identification and personal verification solutions. The need for highly secure identification and personal verification technologies is great, due to the increased number of transaction fraud and security breaches. This need is especially great in the areas of local, state, and federal governments. Infrastructures such as electronic banking, health and social services, law enforcement, and retail sales are already taking advantage of, and seeing the benefits of biometric technology. ("The Biometrics Consortium", n.d.).
As we become more and more dependent on technology, the increase of cybercrimes are skyrocketing, which has forced law enforcement to figure out ways of combatting cybercrimes. We have become extremely vulnerable to many cybercrimes, including social media fraud, which consists of cyber criminals using social media to steal the identities of unsuspecting people; and luring people to download malicious materials, or reveal their passwords; corporate security breaches, which consists of cyber criminals exploiting company employees via scams; and phishing, which involves cyber criminals targeting company employees by sending emails that appear to be from someone within the company.

DNA analysis is a technique used to identify individuals by examining unique DNA sequences in their genomes. DNA profiles are created by scanning 13 specific regions of DNA and comparing samples from crime scenes to those of suspects. If the profiles match, it suggests the suspect was likely involved in the crime. DNA evidence has helped convict many criminals but also exonerate innocent people wrongly accused. Its use has prompted new laws regarding DNA collection and databases to solve crimes.

STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence

analyze certain bodily substances and compare them widi a sample from a suspect.
Forensic science consultant Richard Saferstein tells us that portions of the DNA structure are as unique to each individual as fingerprints. He writes that inside each of the 60 trillion cells in the human body are strands of genetic material called chromosomes. Arranged along the chromosomes, like beads on a thread, are nearly 100,000 genes. Genes are the fundamental unit of heredity. They instruct the body cells to make proteins drat determine everydiing from hair color to susceptibility to diseases. Each gene is actually composed of DNA specifically designed to carry out a single body function. Scientists have determined that DNA is die substance by which genetic instructions are passed from one generation to the next. (Saferstein 353-394)
DNA profiling has helped investigators solve crimes and ensure that diose guilty of crimes are convicted in court. Profiling is the examination of DNA samples from a body substance or fluid to determine whether they came from a particular subject. For example, semen on a rape victim's clothing can be positively or negatively compared with a suspect's semen.

This document discusses how data mining can be used as an active solution for crime investigation in Nigeria. It suggests that law enforcement agencies could analyze large volumes of data using data mining techniques to detect patterns related to criminal activities and predict future crime trends. Specifically, data mining algorithms could be used to cluster populations sizes to impute missing values, cluster changes in crime rates between years to forecast future trends, and detect deceptive identities by criminals through comparing identity fields across criminal records. The goal is to help security agencies prevent, arrest, and investigate crimes like terrorism more effectively.
The document discusses DNA forensic studies and DNA databases. It summarizes that experts conclude DNA forensic expertise should be extended beyond specialists to all law enforcement and the public. DNA can help solve cases but more evidence is sometimes needed to secure a conviction. DNA databases can help solve crimes but also raise privacy concerns as innocent people's DNA could be tracked. The pros and cons of DNA databanks are debated as they could help solve crimes but may invade privacy.

Critical Analysis of Admissibility of Forensic Evidence in the Indian Crimina...ijtsrd
is believed that forensics plays an important role in finding out the criminal and it has been legally operated. Forensic is a process by which it helps in the discovery of the crime and the criminal. The admissibility of evidence by the forensic experts and their analysis of a particular crime can be done in accordance with the evidence law. The forensic experts play an important role by following certain techniques by collecting the particular materials from the crime scene and preserving them further to investigate the crime. The collected materials will be categorized by the forensic experts which in turn helps to find the crime. In certain circumstances, the collection and preservation of the materials are not done by the experts properly as to a lack of knowledge or the influence of the external elements. Further, there are certain legal constraints in accordance with the criminal investigation being carried out by the experts and the officials. The legal constraints start from the discovery, search, and protection of forensic evidence till the investigation. This affects the proper legal action against the criminal and the evidence which are supposed to be produced in the court of law. The researcher would analyse the admissibility of evidence in a court of law as to its relevance, authenticity, and issue on it as evidence is subject to the legal constraints and its applicability of it.

Technology is advancing in every aspect of the criminal justice system, from the investigation to the prosecution of the crimes. Crime fighting methodologies have the potential to greatly assist law enforcement in the war on crime. Some experts even think that some software and tools will be able to help prevent crime. (Yeung, n.d.). Methodologies, such as mandating DNA collection programs, biometrics, and implementing cybercrime spyware programs are on the list of the next big things of the future, when it comes to fighting crime. DNA testing helps law enforcement investigate and prosecute crimes, as well as clear the names of those who have been wrongfully convicted. There are currently about twenty states with laws requiring DNA collection at the time of the person’s arrest. The federal government also has this requirement. As, with any controversial subject, DNA testing has its critics. Some are saying that DNA testing is in violation of the Fourth Amendment, especially for those who have not been convicted of a crime. Others are concerned that DNA testing may open the doors for abuse of the genetic information being stored in the databases. (Berson, n.d.). Biometrics are automated methods of recognizing a person based on physiological or behavioral characteristics. Some of the features measured using biometrics are handwriting, voice, iris, hand geometry, vein, retinal, and fingerprints. Biometric based solutions provide personal data privacy, and confidential financial transactions, and are starting to become the foundation of an extensive array of highly secure identification and personal verification solutions. The need for highly secure identification and personal verification technologies is great, due to the increased number of transaction fraud and security breaches. This need is especially great in the areas of local, state, and federal governments. Infrastructures such as electronic banking, health and social services, law enforcement, and retail sales are already taking advantage of, and seeing the benefits of biometric technology. ("The Biometrics Consortium", n.d.).
As we become more and more dependent on technology, the increase of cybercrimes are skyrocketing, which has forced law enforcement to figure out ways of combatting cybercrimes. We have become extremely vulnerable to many cybercrimes, including social media fraud, which consists of cyber criminals using social media to steal the identities of unsuspecting people; and luring people to download malicious materials, or reveal their passwords; corporate security breaches, which consists of cyber criminals exploiting company employees via scams; and phishing, which involves cyber criminals targeting company employees by sending emails that appear to be from someone within the company.

DNA analysis is a technique used to identify individuals by examining unique DNA sequences in their genomes. DNA profiles are created by scanning 13 specific regions of DNA and comparing samples from crime scenes to those of suspects. If the profiles match, it suggests the suspect was likely involved in the crime. DNA evidence has helped convict many criminals but also exonerate innocent people wrongly accused. Its use has prompted new laws regarding DNA collection and databases to solve crimes.

STUDY THE EFFECT OF RESPONSE REDUCTION FACTOR ON RC FRAMED STRUCTUREIRJET Journal
This study examines the effect of response reduction factors (R factors) on reinforced concrete (RC) framed structures through nonlinear dynamic analysis. Three RC frame models with varying heights (4, 8, and 12 stories) were analyzed in ETABS software under different R factors ranging from 1 to 5. The results showed that displacement increased as the R factor decreased, indicating less linear behavior for lower R factors. Drift also decreased proportionally with increasing R factors from 1 to 5. Shear forces in the frames decreased with higher R factors. In general, R factors of 3 to 5 produced more satisfactory performance with less displacement and drift. The displacement variations between different building heights were consistent at different R factors. This study evaluated how R factors influence
