    Criminal Minds

    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.…

    In this paper I will compare the robbery rate between two metropolitan cities which are Dallas Texas and San Diego California using the preliminary annual Uniform Crime Report (UCR) generated by the Federal Bureau of investigation (FBI) from January to December 2008. The Uniform Crime Reporting Program (UCR) defines robbery as the taking or attempting to take anything of value from the care, custody, or control of a person or persons by force or threat of force or violence and/or by putting the victim in fear.…

    White collar crime and credit card fraud are complex crimes that are generally related to business, industry, and economic schemes. The U.S. Department of Justice defines white collar crime as a “nonviolent, illegal activities that rely on deceit, deception, concealment, manipulation, breach of trust, subterfuge, or illegal circumvention” (Criminal Investigation, 11th Edition). Statically these sophisticated crimes are usually committed by caucasian and european men. No matter the circumstances, the crime will always have a victim! This crime is a very pervasive issue that has low priority in law enforcement due to matters as terrorism.…

    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.…

    White-Collar Crime, or financial crime, is a widespread problem in America that usually does not get the type of attention it deserves. It is perceived as boring and people do not usually care to learn about it. Everyone knows about Blue-Collar crime (Street Crime) and murder, rape, and theft are usually met with feelings of anger and disgust. But unfortunately, White-Collar crime does not stir up the same feelings one would expect to receive from a murder. Fraudulent loans and embezzlement are just as noteworthy, if not worse than Street Crime. But financial crime is ignored most of the time in the media. Financial crime is more detrimental to society as a whole than street crime. It causes greater financial loss and affects a larger amount…

    Uniform Crime Data Report

    • 964 Words
    • 4 Pages

    The Uniform Crime Reporting (UCR) Program was conceived in 1929 by the International Association of Chiefs of Police to meet a need for reliable, uniform crime statistics for the nation. In 1930, the Federal Bureau of Investigations (FBI) was tasked with collecting, publishing, and archiving those statistics (Federal Bureau of Investigations, 2007). Today, the FBI produces a Uniform Crime Report (UCR) annually for all fifty (50) states and the cities within those states from statistic collected from all police enforcement agencies. The UCR lists violent crimes and property crimes and categorizes each separate crime under those offenses. I have selected to discuss the crime of larceny theft for the two (2) metropolitan areas of Washington D.C., Washington, and Chicago, Illinois. In the following I will identify the number of occurrences, what the rates were, did the rates change over time, and what factors could explain a change for both areas.…

    Some people would say that organized crime has ruined the United States and allowed petty hoods to gain worldwide recognition. Others would disagree and say organized crime is no different than any major corporation in today 's global economy. Some people would say organized crime is the best thing to happen to neighborhoods that law enforcement will not come into. No matter what side of the fence a person falls on, some part of what they believe will be correct, and part will not. During the course of this paper, the author will look at organized crime, identify the problems presented and the various relationships established by organized crime, and describe the legal limitations associated with combating organized crime, including a critique of major federal laws and strategies that support this effort. Finally, the author will suggest a realistic solution to control organized crime by discussing and evaluating the effectiveness of organized crime prosecutions.…
