Chapter 8:
Residential Community Supervision Programs
Chapter 9:
Nonresidential Graduated Sanctions
Unit Lesson
As the criminal justice system tries to balance between the realization that evidence-based practices need to
be implemented in order to reduce offender recidivism and the reality that the system is very much geared
towards the get tough on crime mentality, the advances in technology that allow probation and parole officers
to more closely monitor high-risk offenders and increase public safety are fantastic. Probation and parole
have the ability to adequately meet the correctional goals of punishment, incapacitation, and deterrence
through methods like global positioning system (GPS) monitoring, electronic home monitoring combined with
house arrest, and the Secure Continuous Remote Alcohol Monitoring (SCRAM) system, which detects alcohol
consumption through the offender’s skin (Alarid, 2015). Probation and parole officers have the ability to
monitor their caseload’s whereabouts like never before, and they can quickly act on technical violations of
supervision, sometimes even before those violations become a new criminal charge for the offender.
However, three main problems arise with the increased use of technological monitoring of offenders.
The first problem is that offenders monitored more closely with more precise technology, such as GPS and
SCRAM, incur more technical violations of probation and parole, which can lead to revocation more than
offenders not monitored with technology. The mindset is that now probation and parole officers can catch
offenders misbehaving and build up a solid enough case to warrant revocation of the offender’s probation or
parole. However, this way of thinking is not in tune with the evidence-based practices aimed a.
The document discusses the evidence collection process and opportunities for evidence manipulation. It notes that while safeguards aim to prevent manipulation, corrupt investigators could potentially alter evidence. The document then describes proper crime scene investigation procedures, including securing the scene, documenting all evidence found, and following standard collection and labeling practices. Maintaining a proper chain of custody for all evidence is emphasized as important to show evidence has not been contaminated.
This document provides an executive summary of an evaluation of Project Lantern, a 5-year anti-sex trafficking project in Cebu, Philippines led by the International Justice Mission. The evaluation assessed changes in the public justice system's response to sex trafficking and Project Lantern's role. Key findings include evidence that Project Lantern contributed to reduced availability of minors for commercial sex, improved law enforcement operations and court system results, and strengthened aftercare services. Overall, the project enhanced the public justice system's response to sex trafficking through building partnerships and capacity.
Effectiveness of Crime Control Measures in NigeriaGabriel Ken
This document summarizes a research study on the effectiveness of crime control measures in Nigeria. The study assessed the role of citizens in crime prevention and identified the causes and impacts of crime. A descriptive survey design was used and questionnaires were distributed to 150 respondents. The findings showed that citizens play active roles in crime control, but more still needs to be done. It is recommended that the government better equip formal security agencies for effective crime prevention and that informal and formal sectors collaborate more closely to improve crime prevention and control efforts.
BackgroundA significant criminal event may occur at any place an.docxaman341480
Background
A significant criminal event may occur at any place and at any time. The size of the jurisdiction does not dictate the scope and scale of the incident. It is perfectly possible, even predictable, that investigative needs will be beyond the resources and/or sophistication of a local law enforcement agency. In such cases, one option is to expand the resources available through multiagency collaboration and cooperation (e.g., a task force). However, regardless of who or how many investigative resources are brought to bear on an incident, the parent agency remains responsible for the successful outcome of the criminal investigation.
Project Setting
Acting as a subject matter expert on criminal investigation, you have been asked to assist in the creation of a simulation exercise of a multijurisdictional criminal investigation. Some of the preliminary work has already been completed. Your specific task is to compile the post investigation review document (rubric) to be used by exercise assessors in their evaluation of the quality of the criminal investigation. This is what you know:
A series of 11 random explosions have occurred in an area that traverses two states, and a total of seven counties (five counties in one state and two counties in the other state), embracing a total of nine cities and incorporated towns. The explosions resulted in five deaths, 32 injuries, and significant property damage. In each case, the explosion was detonated remotely. The lead investigative agency is the Virtual, Maryland, Police Department, because the first three explosions occurred within its jurisdiction. VPD has about 100 sworn personnel, including 17 all-purpose detective investigators. It has a certified forensic laboratory for rudimentary analysis, staffed by credentialed civilians. Ultimately, two suspects were identified and apprehended, one adult male and one teenage (minor) male. Statements were made by each, resulting in investigative searches and seizures of forensic evidence. Both subjects eventually confessed to their respective and collective parts in the crimes.
Assessors in the simulation exercise will be debriefing the role players as to their actions; their understanding of the legal basis, purpose, and advantages and disadvantages of their investigative strategies; and the conduct of the investigation. The assessors have already come up with a series of questions for the participants. You have been asked to provide the "model" answer against which the responses of the participants will be graded.
Following are the questions to be posed by the simulation exercise assessors to the investigators:
Investigative Task Force
Assuming that legal authority was not an issue, should this investigation be conducted by VPD personnel or a multijurisdictional task force?
At what point should the potential of establishing an investigative task force be considered?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of an investigative task force?
Who, ...

Running head: CRIME ANALYSIS 1
CRIME ANALYSIS TECHNOLOGY 2
Crime analysis is a function that usually involves the systemic analysis in identifying as well as analyzing the crime patterns and trends. Crime analysis is very important for law enforcement agencies as it helps law enforcers effectively deploy the available resources in a better and effective manner, which enables them to identify and apprehend suspects. Crime analysis is also very significant when it comes to arriving at solutions devised to come up with the right solution to solve the current crime problem and issues as well as coming up with the right prevention strategies. Since the year 2014, crime rates in the USA have increased steadily as per a study done by USAFacts, which is a non-partisan initiative (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). With this increase in crime rates, which has majorly resulted in massive growth in technology, it is essential to come up with better means and ways of dealing with the increased crime rates. With the current advancement in technology, better law enforcement tools developed, which has enabled better crime deterrence in better and efficient ways. All this has been facilitated by the efforts of crime analysts who have come up with better tools and thus enabling the law enforcers to better deal with the crimes (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). In this paper, I will consider the application of crime analysis technology and techniques in fighting crimes. Application of crime analysis technology and techniques used to make crime analysis more accurate and efficient.
Currently, the two technological tools that are used in predictive policing software have enabled security agencies to effectively use predictive policing ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). Application of this software has enabled better crime prevention as with data obtained in the previous crimes have been used to predict possible future severe crimes in a specific area.
Through the adoption and use of crime analysis, law enforcement agencies have been able to fight against crimes as when compared with the past effectively. The use of crime analysis comes at the right time, where there has been an increase in crime rates in the current digital error. In a survey done by Wynyard group in 2015, the study revealed that for every 10 law enforcement officials 9 of them believe that the use of current technology in crime analysis has had positive effects in helping the agencies in solving crimes as they can identify essential links and trends in crimes ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). In the same way, other sectors have benefited from data analysis with spreadsheets, databases, and mapping, law enforcers have been able to use data analysis to come up with a better decision.

SCRAM, incur more technical violations of probation and parole, which can lead to revocation more than
offenders not monitored with technology. The mindset is that now probation and parole officers can catch
offenders misbehaving and build up a solid enough case to warrant revocation of the offender’s probation or
parole. However, this way of thinking is not in tune with the evidence-based practices aimed a.
The document discusses the evidence collection process and opportunities for evidence manipulation. It notes that while safeguards aim to prevent manipulation, corrupt investigators could potentially alter evidence. The document then describes proper crime scene investigation procedures, including securing the scene, documenting all evidence found, and following standard collection and labeling practices. Maintaining a proper chain of custody for all evidence is emphasized as important to show evidence has not been contaminated.
This document provides an executive summary of an evaluation of Project Lantern, a 5-year anti-sex trafficking project in Cebu, Philippines led by the International Justice Mission. The evaluation assessed changes in the public justice system's response to sex trafficking and Project Lantern's role. Key findings include evidence that Project Lantern contributed to reduced availability of minors for commercial sex, improved law enforcement operations and court system results, and strengthened aftercare services. Overall, the project enhanced the public justice system's response to sex trafficking through building partnerships and capacity.
Effectiveness of Crime Control Measures in NigeriaGabriel Ken
This document summarizes a research study on the effectiveness of crime control measures in Nigeria. The study assessed the role of citizens in crime prevention and identified the causes and impacts of crime. A descriptive survey design was used and questionnaires were distributed to 150 respondents. The findings showed that citizens play active roles in crime control, but more still needs to be done. It is recommended that the government better equip formal security agencies for effective crime prevention and that informal and formal sectors collaborate more closely to improve crime prevention and control efforts.
BackgroundA significant criminal event may occur at any place an.docxaman341480
Background
A significant criminal event may occur at any place and at any time. The size of the jurisdiction does not dictate the scope and scale of the incident. It is perfectly possible, even predictable, that investigative needs will be beyond the resources and/or sophistication of a local law enforcement agency. In such cases, one option is to expand the resources available through multiagency collaboration and cooperation (e.g., a task force). However, regardless of who or how many investigative resources are brought to bear on an incident, the parent agency remains responsible for the successful outcome of the criminal investigation.
Project Setting
Acting as a subject matter expert on criminal investigation, you have been asked to assist in the creation of a simulation exercise of a multijurisdictional criminal investigation. Some of the preliminary work has already been completed. Your specific task is to compile the post investigation review document (rubric) to be used by exercise assessors in their evaluation of the quality of the criminal investigation. This is what you know:
A series of 11 random explosions have occurred in an area that traverses two states, and a total of seven counties (five counties in one state and two counties in the other state), embracing a total of nine cities and incorporated towns. The explosions resulted in five deaths, 32 injuries, and significant property damage. In each case, the explosion was detonated remotely. The lead investigative agency is the Virtual, Maryland, Police Department, because the first three explosions occurred within its jurisdiction. VPD has about 100 sworn personnel, including 17 all-purpose detective investigators. It has a certified forensic laboratory for rudimentary analysis, staffed by credentialed civilians. Ultimately, two suspects were identified and apprehended, one adult male and one teenage (minor) male. Statements were made by each, resulting in investigative searches and seizures of forensic evidence. Both subjects eventually confessed to their respective and collective parts in the crimes.
Assessors in the simulation exercise will be debriefing the role players as to their actions; their understanding of the legal basis, purpose, and advantages and disadvantages of their investigative strategies; and the conduct of the investigation. The assessors have already come up with a series of questions for the participants. You have been asked to provide the "model" answer against which the responses of the participants will be graded.
Following are the questions to be posed by the simulation exercise assessors to the investigators:
Investigative Task Force
Assuming that legal authority was not an issue, should this investigation be conducted by VPD personnel or a multijurisdictional task force?
At what point should the potential of establishing an investigative task force be considered?
What are the advantages and disadvantages of an investigative task force?
Who, ...
Screening children and young people for risk of re-offending: A Discussion of...robine

Running head: CRIME ANALYSIS 1
CRIME ANALYSIS TECHNOLOGY 2
Crime analysis is a function that usually involves the systemic analysis in identifying as well as analyzing the crime patterns and trends. Crime analysis is very important for law enforcement agencies as it helps law enforcers effectively deploy the available resources in a better and effective manner, which enables them to identify and apprehend suspects. Crime analysis is also very significant when it comes to arriving at solutions devised to come up with the right solution to solve the current crime problem and issues as well as coming up with the right prevention strategies. Since the year 2014, crime rates in the USA have increased steadily as per a study done by USAFacts, which is a non-partisan initiative (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). With this increase in crime rates, which has majorly resulted in massive growth in technology, it is essential to come up with better means and ways of dealing with the increased crime rates. With the current advancement in technology, better law enforcement tools developed, which has enabled better crime deterrence in better and efficient ways. All this has been facilitated by the efforts of crime analysts who have come up with better tools and thus enabling the law enforcers to better deal with the crimes (Osborne & Wernicke, 2013). In this paper, I will consider the application of crime analysis technology and techniques in fighting crimes. Application of crime analysis technology and techniques used to make crime analysis more accurate and efficient.
Currently, the two technological tools that are used in predictive policing software have enabled security agencies to effectively use predictive policing ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). Application of this software has enabled better crime prevention as with data obtained in the previous crimes have been used to predict possible future severe crimes in a specific area.
Through the adoption and use of crime analysis, law enforcement agencies have been able to fight against crimes as when compared with the past effectively. The use of crime analysis comes at the right time, where there has been an increase in crime rates in the current digital error. In a survey done by Wynyard group in 2015, the study revealed that for every 10 law enforcement officials 9 of them believe that the use of current technology in crime analysis has had positive effects in helping the agencies in solving crimes as they can identify essential links and trends in crimes ("Crime Analysis: Fighting Crime with Data," 2017). In the same way, other sectors have benefited from data analysis with spreadsheets, databases, and mapping, law enforcers have been able to use data analysis to come up with a better decision. Crime analysis ha ...

Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.

2. Jackson County MDT Technology Facilitated Crimes Against Children Protocol 2
JACKSON COUNTY MULTI‐DISCIPLINARY TEAM (MDT)
TECHNOLOGY FACILITATED CRIMES AGAINST CHILDREN PROTOCOL
Purpose
The purpose of this protocol is to assist law enforcement officers and Department of Human
Services investigators with criminal investigations of child abuse that involve technology
facilitated crimes against children.
Technology facilitated crimes require the investigator to have full knowledge of how these
crimes can be committed and the technical savvy to be aware of appropriate questions to ask
during a forensic interview of a child. This protocol is designed to create standards regarding
when a member of the Southern Oregon High‐Tech Crimes Task Force (SOHTCTF) may be
contacted to provide assistance and consultation to the interviewer.
The overall goal of this protocol is to use the expertise of high‐tech crime investigators
combined with child abuse investigators to obtain the best evidence, making prosecutions more
effective and providing the best outcome possible for child victims in these often complex
cases.
Technology Facilitated Crimes Defined
This protocol covers incidents where the child victim has been sexually exploited via electronic
means and/or the suspected perpetrator used technology to facilitate the crimes committed
against the victim. Technology facilitated crimes against children could include, but are not
limited to the following examples:
A child compelled to take nude images of themselves with digital cameras,
cellular phones or other electronic devices and transmit those images (Sexting);
A child used in a display of sexually explicit conduct in accordance with ORS
163.670 (manufacturing of child pornography);
A child who is groomed through the use of technology, for example a child
shown images of adult or child pornography on an electronic device;
A child who is the victim of physical or sexual abuse and the child met the
suspect online (traveler cases);
Victims of Internet luring cases in accordance with ORS 167.057; and
Victims of online sexual corruption cases in accordance with ORS 163.432 and
163.433.
3. Jackson County MDT Technology Facilitated Crimes Against Children Protocol 3
Protocol
This protocol may become effective when a child abuse investigator from law enforcement or
DHS receives a report of child abuse and determines the case was facilitated by technology.
The following incidents may necessitate the notification of the Southern Oregon High‐Tech
Crimes Task Force to assist with the case investigation:
1. If the investigator has reason to believe the child was used in the creation of sexually
explicit images or videos;
2. In cases where the victim does not know the identity of the suspect except for an email
address, screen name, chat room identifier or other Internet moniker;
3. In cases where technology played a significant role in the victimization of the child such
as Internet luring, grooming, or the use of child pornography;
4. In cases that necessitate showing a victim an image or video of child sexual abuse in the
course of an interview.
In the above cases a member of the SOHTCTF will respond and assist in the forensic interview
of the child in a support role. The SOHTCTF investigator will listen to the interview and assist
with the development of questions as well as any other technical aspects of the investigation as
needed or requested.
When making arrangements for the interview, investigators should notify the CAC intake
coordinator that the case is a technology‐facilitated crime and request the SOHTCTF be
notified. The intake coordinator will notify the SOHTCTF Commander to get a task force officer
assigned to assist.
SOHTCTF investigators can also provide assistance in identifying suspects or additional victims
through the use of technology as well as conducting forensic examinations of digital evidence
and consultation on investigative strategies involving technology‐facilitated crimes.
In cases that technology is used to facilitate a crime against a child, but does not meet the
recommended notification of the SOHTCTF outlined above, investigators can always request
the assistance of the SOHTCTF using their discretion. It should be noted that the SOHTCTF has
limited resources to investigate technology‐facilitated crimes. Investigative priority will be
given to participating and contributing law enforcement agencies.
Showing Images or Videos of Child Sexual Abuse to a Victim
Certain cases may necessitate an investigator show a victim an image or video of child sexual
abuse. The decision to show a victim an image or video of themselves being sexually abused or
engaged in sexual conduct should be carefully considered. Investigators must weigh the
potential to further victimize the child by showing the image or video against the possibility
that showing the image to the victim may assist in the investigation and further protect the
child.
4. Jackson County MDT Technology Facilitated Crimes Against Children Protocol 4
If the decision is made to show a victim an image or video of child sexual abuse care must be
taken to question the victim first in order to establish a proper foundation for showing the
image or video to them. The investigator should obtain as much detail as possible about the
image or video and the circumstances surrounding its use or creation. This information should
be sought through questioning that is not leading, age appropriate and in accordance with the
Oregon Interview Guidelines.
If the decision has been made to show an image or video to a child in an interview, it must be
done in conjunction with law enforcement. Generally, the SOHTCTF will be responsible for
locating the image while performing a forensic examination of digital evidence. Once the image
or video is selected, the SOHTCTF will attempt to sanitize it as much as possible. A sworn
member of the SOHTCTF will be responsible for the care and custody of any child sexual abuse
image or video by bringing it to the advocacy center and remaining on the premises until the
image or video is no longer needed. The SOHTCTF member does not necessarily have to
present it to the child being interviewed, but can maintain visual custody of the contraband via
the in‐house camera system.
The investigator may request the SOHTCTF member to be present in the interview to assist in
the interview, especially to discuss additional images or videos located or specific questions
regarding technology‐facilitated crimes.
Victims used in the Creation of Child Sexual Abuse Images
In cases where a child victim was used in the creation of images or videos of sexual abuse, the
parent(s)/guardian(s) of that child shall be notified of the discovery of such media, unless the
parent/guardian is suspected as the offender. Pursuant to this protocol, those images shall be
sent to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children’s (NCMEC) Child Victim
Identification Program. The parent/guardian, if not a suspect in the investigation, shall also be
notified of this program and provided with the informational pamphlet regarding this process
by the Children’s Advocacy Center staff.
