    The Csi Effect Summary

    The Honorable Donald E. Sheldon is a felony trial judge in Ann Arbor, Michigan and a member of the faculty at Eastern Michigan University. In Sheldon’s article, The ‘CSI Effect’: Does it really exist? that was published in the National Institute of Justice, he discusses the craze around the “crime-fiction television dramas” and the possible effects it has on jurors in their decisions in court cases. (Sheldon, par. 3)With the country in complete fascination with crime-fiction Sheldon found television rating from 2006 that showed that “five of the top ten television programs that week were about scientific evidence in criminal cases. Together they amassed more than 100 million viewers.” (Sheldon, Par. 6) With more than 100 million viewers watching crime-fiction in a given week Sheldon wonders “how many of them report for juror duty the next day?”(Sheldon, Par. 7) If the number is significant does it affect how they will judge the outcome in the courtroom?…

    CSI Effect: Do People Believe Real Criminal Investigation?

    “We are being detoured into the land of make-believe” was said by a character on the well-known show CSI Miami by a character named Horatio Caine. On television, a crime drama series called CSI: Crime Scene Investigation was created by a man named Anthony Zuiker. This show has become a foundation for what people believe real criminal investigation is meant to be like. This phenomenon is called the CSI Effect. This well known television show has an exaggerated look into the forensics side of the criminal justice system, and because of this, people are led to think that is what it should always be like in investigations.…

    The Pros And Cons Of Police Suspection

    The pressure a witness feels in a lineup to choose a suspect can be a great one. Often times the witness looks to the police officer for guidance. When a witness is not sure they may identify a suspect and after ask the police officer how well they did and if they choose the right person. When conducting a lineup, a police officer should be careful not to give feedback or confirmation. When a police officer simply says “good job” even if the witness chooses wrong, it can cause a huge confident boost. When its time for the trial the witness is more likely to make the same mistake again (Clare, 2012, para. 7). When conducting a lineup, the police should use the Blind or Blinded Administration method. In this method the police officer does not know anything about who the suspect is. This will prevent any suggestive or…

    Kurt Vonnegut's Slaughterhouse-Five

    The story told in Slaughterhouse Five is very much unique to its setting and the time in which it occurs. The story is told by Kurt Vonnegut, who is also a minor character in the book, about the life experiences of Billy Pilgrim during World War II. The story centers on a specific event that occurs during the war, the Allied firebombing of Dresden, Germany. This specific bombing has gone virtually unnoticed by Americans throughout history since the war due to its location, being in Germany. However, certainly the scrutiny would be much greater if such a horrendous bombing was inflicted upon Britain, America, or another Allied power. In addition, the story itself would not have been told if it were not for Vonnegut’s own unique situation…

    Fan Attraction Like CSI: Crime Scene Investigation

    This scenario got me thinking this week about the possibility of “NCIS” and the future of the show. It is possible that this famed CBS show will ever get a fan attraction like “CSI: Crime Scene Investigation” has in Las Vegas? Called “CSI: The Experience”, viewers of the show get to play a crime scene investigator and check out two state-of-the-art forensic crime labs. If you’ve gone, you know the special effects are amazing.…

    CSI Effect And Forensic Evidence

    The CSI effect is a belief held by law enforcement personal and prosecutors that forensic science television shows such as CSI: Miami, influence and over dramatize the belief that Americas jurors have to expect more forensic evidence in order to convict defendants (Roberts, 2017). This is a relatively big problem because there are a lot of cases where physical evidence is not as plentiful as many of these television shows depict. According to Donald Shelton (2008), “46 percent expect to see some kind of scientific evidence in every case, 22 percent expected to see DNA evidence in every criminal case, 36 percent expected to see fingerprint evidence in every criminal case, and 32 percent expected to see ballistic or other firearms laboratory evidence in every criminal case.” The issue behind these statistics is that not all cases have this kind of evidence. Some cases have more evidence that is collected by detectives such as witness statements and other circumstantial evidence. I believe that CSI effect is still valid today and people should be educated in some why as to how it an investigation actually works in the real world before taking on jury duties. They should know that things like DNA and other lab results don’t come back in 30 seconds and that there isn’t always cut and dry evidence to make a verdict.…

    CSI Evidence

    CSI Evidence

    The way the CSI television show altered how evidence is gathered, crime scene investigation, and DNA testing really blew my mind. I then discovered when I became a police officer that none of these methods portrayed in the television show was real. In a real crime scene investigation, the time technology used are not as advanced as the equipment displayed in the show. Another issue with the CSI television show is the time frame it takes for an investigator to solve a crime scene. Based on my experience as a crime scene investigator, it usually takes more than 3-4 days to secure a crime scene. The evidence found at the scene usually takes a month or two to get results on DNA because it is sent off island for…
