Criminal Investigation:

Respond to this student’s post with your thoughts in at least 100 words:

“Determine the fundamental difference between interrogating and interviewing under the circumstance of criminal investigation. Provide one (1) example of a situation or scenario when each of these would be used.

• Information is obtained continuously throughout an investigation. Some is volunteered, and some the police officer must really work for; some is useful and some worthless or even misleading. Interviewing involves talking to people, questioning them, obtaining information, and reading between the lines. The main sources of information at the crime scene are the complainant, the victim, and witnesses. Interview witnesses separately if possible. Interview the victim or complainant first, then eye witnesses and then the people who did not actually see the crime but who have relevant information. Questioning suspects is usually more difficult than questioning witnesses or victims. Once identified and located, a person who is involved in a crime may make a statement, admission or confession that corroborated with independent evidence, can produce a guilty plea or obtain a conviction. An example of a situation when each of these would be used is during a murder investigation.
• * From the e-Activity, and based on Figure 7.5 Linear Use-of-force Continuum in Chapter 7 of the textbook, support or critique the argument that a police officer should use an Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and / or taser before the utilization of deadly force when making arrests. Provide a rationale to support your response.
  • I support the argument that police officers should use an Electronic Countermeasures (ECM) and/or taser before the utilization of deadly force when making arrests because all life is important. ECMs help subdue the suspect when they begin resisting arrest or show signs of posing a physical threat towards the arresting officers.”

Student’s Post:

“Hi class!

What I find interesting about the Great Wall of China is the distance of the actual wall. It states 20,000 Kilometers which is equivalent to 12427.424 miles!! Another astonishing fact I find interesting is the Great Wall of China is the only hand made structure that can be seen from the MOON!! Above Earth you can see oceans, but from the moon you can see an architect piece. 

The purpose of the wall is to stop other countries from invading their countries including walls, horse tracks, and towers. China uses it to block aggression from other countries. The Great Wall of China also preserves their culture; touching base as to what we have been learning a few weeks ago about cultures and traditions. 

Another example of a modern wall is the Berlin Wall, Germany – This wall was built much later than the previous ones, but just as much famous. Construction began in 1961, at the peak of the cold war. It was built in the middle of Berlin by East Germany in order to stop East Berliners to escape to the west. It was finally taken down with the fall of the Soviet Union in 1989. Remnants can still be found today (10 Most Famous Walls in the World, 2013). 

The Berlin Wall is similar to the Great Wall of China in regards to barricading invading intruders and possible escapes.”
