Primary Response is due by Friday, Peer Responses are due by Tuesday .
Within the Discussion Board area, write 300-500 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates.
In this presentation, you want to provide them with useful information about the legal issues and constraints that are involved in working a crime scene. The legal areas and issues that you will be discussing are as follows:
• Under what circumstances does a crime scene investigator need to obtain a search warrant before processing a crime scene?
• What are the exceptions to needing a search warrant for a crime scene?
• What are some legal issues that might arise from not setting a proper perimeter around a crime scene?
• What is a mock trial, and how can it be used to develop the presentation skills of a crime scene investigator in the courtroom?
You must formally define and describe the legal issues and constraints that you find as well as inform the students why knowledge of legal issues and constraints is important to the job of a crime scene investigator.
