Problems of the crime scenes from CSI S1 Ep. 2-From the fingerprint analysis’
2.i believe that only some representation in the media are correct with the identification and anaylsis of some physical evidence. Yet alot of the shows that have higher ratings or are more popular show that forensic scientist are able to more than just lab and field work (ex. Dexter, CSI, NCIS, etc..) even to a point ti where they can hold guns and interview people. Also in some shows the time flies, like they can solve a case within two days or get results back in just minutes, when in reality it takes longer then that.…
having a gun in one's house is a controversial topic for many people, whether or not one would think they would need or want one in their house. The episode of Blackish named "Rock Paper Scissors Gun" was successfully able to explain both the primary benefits and their contrasting arguments applying Pathos, Logos, and the Ethos behind both sides of the spectrum of owning a…
The episode I watched involving misinterpretations of forensic science was CSI: Bite Me. It is about a husband who finds his wife, Becky Lester dead on their stair case. The husband immediately calls 911, needing paramedics only to find out it was a criminal case. Once investigators arrive the scene is a mess from the paramedics tracking her blood all over the house, making it hard to identify if the perpetrators prints where present. The team didn’t waste any time and began to examining her body’s position and blood splatter to see if it was possible she fell down the stairs. Investigators soon ruled it out due to her position and the size of the blood splatter was too large for a fall (2 meters) and more in line with a sharp object. Next…
2. Do you think you suffer from the "CSI effect"? Why or why not? What problems do you think this "effect" has on the criminal justice system?…
2. Do you think you suffer from the "CSI effect"? Why or why not? What problems do you think this "effect" has on the criminal justice system? I think that to a certain extent I do suffer from the “CSI effect”. This is because the entire reason I’m so interested in the field of forensics is from watching crime shows such as NCIS and other forensic documentaries. Doing this might have given me an unrealistic expectation of how the study of forensics worked. However, I do understand that this field isn’t as quick and simple as portrayed on television, and even knowing this, I’m still just as interested in the field. I think that this effect causes problems in the criminal justice system such as people who give up on cases more easily than they otherwise would, because they would perceive the analyzing of evidence to be a slower process. It could also mean that there are people in the field less motivated, because their job isn’t what they expected.…

Clay Dillow’s essay “To Catch a Bombmaker” emerged in October 2015 in Popular Science. This was a well written article whose main purpose was to inform the audience about a “little-known FBI forensics lab” (Dillow 54). His use of critical thinking in all eight elements only made his argument more valid and additionally convincing. Each one of these elements was covered thoroughly along with the use of strategies such as ethos and logos, which further the evidence that he was presenting. By utilizing his professional tone and moreover unveiling factual events, Dillow was able to produce a successful essay.…

Robert William Pickton was a pig farmer and serial killer who targeted prostitutes and murdered them on his farm. We viewed the documentary about him, as well as the Criminal Minds episode to compare how real life crimes are shown in the media. They both had very different ways of portraying the case. The documentary had real facts, interviews, and voice recordings of Pickton. The Criminal Minds episode followed a similar storyline, but altered some of the facts to make it a more interesting and intense show that their audience would enjoy. Some of the differences were the length of time it took to catch Pickton, the isolation of the farm, and the gender of the victims.…
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…
The character “Morgan” played by shemar moore in the T V series Criminal Minds took on a case involving a serial killer who uses two type of guns to kill his victims, the killer is finding his victims threw gangs what he would do is call in the police and ambush the police when they were on sight wounding sometimes killing the police officers the criminal minds team are in a small town in Arizona they are confused about why the killer is using gangs to cover his tracks, the police are baffled and are in a uprage about there fellow officers being gunned down in broad day light, they have the whole town on alert looking for and asking for help in regards to the police killings, the gangs in the neighborhood are unwilling to help the police solve or even figure out who this person is back at head quarter “baby doll” as morgan calls her looks up and tracks down possible leads to help solve the mystery of the serial killer, the criminal minds team is having problems controlling the police department , the officers want to go after the gangs and especially and certain gang with the gang leader name play boy the suspect that the police thinks did it is brought into custody by the police and questioned the criminal mind team believes that this is a major mistake that this could give the unsub time to change his main objective, this story of course ends with the criminal minds team finding the suspect and taking him into custody while he is in custody the gang that the police was harassing kills the suspect for payback for them being harassed and accused of the crime, the main points of the movie that I chose was why do people kill is this something mentally that makes them feel good or is this something inside of them that makes them do horrible acts of violence, I am curious and very objective to how a serial killer chooses his victims some serial killers just choose victims of opportunity by them driving around, people walking alone, why don’t more people be more subjective to there surrounding especially if they are out late at night, I will have to strongly agree about a text that was written by “frank schmalleger Criminal Justice” about that most victims are the criminals reflecting back on statements of a high percentage of victims are actually the criminals, even when you do everything right, meaning abide by the rules of the law there is always a certain percentage that you could become the victim, always keep your head on a swivel observing everything afoot, the more we as a people are more observant and caring and looking out for the next person we as a people can be more in tuned to our everyday life and therefore live a righteous and blissful life.the life we have and use need to be cherish more and people who do not become more aware of there surroundings could become victims themselves, yes I do understand that we cannot read the future or tell the outcome that may come but we can be more observant.…
The abolition movement achieved “dizzying heights” in many ways. According to The American Yawp textbook, in 1831, William Loyd Garrison established a newspaper called The Liberator that organized an interracial crusade dedicated to the emancipation and black citizenship. Then, in 1833, he works with the ten states to create the American Antislavery Society. Abolitionist then fought to save the other slaves and their nation’s soul. First, abolitionists find all the method that will help the social reform projects of the benevolent empire.…

Default individualization is a path which someone can follow by accepting personally bounding identities which are socially accepted. Basically each person accepting the same identity of that of the person right next to them. By not being their own individual, these identities may possibly delay growth into adulthood. Things in life happen by default for these people, whatever happens just happens, and it is not planned out or thought of to any extent. This individualization does not stimulate growth as a person, because one can just look onto others (whose are actions, choices, and behaviors are socially accepted) to choose their life choices. Or someone can choose a path of developmental individualization. They can easily have their own personal identity apart and different from any others. People can actively have a well thought out plan to change your life for the better and to maintain this plan for life improvement in the adult world…
