Extractions: The seizure of property is a practice long used by governments. For example, in English common law, the value of an inanimate object could be forfeited to the English Crown if that object caused the death of a person. Therefore, the forfeiture of property was generally justified as a penalty for carelessness. This tradition and justification has, over time, merged with a belief that the right to own property could be denied an individual who engaged in criminal conduct. The forfeiture sanction is a legal concept that involves the application of procedures resulting in the transfer of the ownership of property to the government. Many of the criminal laws enforced by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) contain forfeiture provisions. Some of these forfeiture provisions are excellent deterrents, for example, forfeiture under federal drug laws and under money-laundering laws. Other provisions may be used infrequently, including forfeiture of prison-made goods illegally transported in interstate commerce. The seizure of property by law enforcement authorities generally is permissible when the property is evidence of a crime or is subject to forfeiture. The seizure of property for forfeiture implicates tenets of the Fourth and Fifth Amendments of the United States Constitution. The proper method of seizure of property, for example in a civil forfeiture action, depends upon the methods permitted in the relevant statute, the location of the property, Department of Justice and FBI policy, and whether or not exigent circumstances are present. It is FBI policy to seize property for forfeiture pursuant to a seizure warrant.

Extractions: Fax: (517) 432-1781 Running head: Investigation and forensic evidence ABSTRACT: KEY WORDS: criminal investigation, forensic evidence, investigation process, detective work. Introduction Among the crimes that are investigated by the police, including those that result in a court conviction, most do not involve the use of physical evidence [4]. In fact, the role of such evidence is a limited one in most investigations, and the outcomes of criminal events are even less frequently influenced by scientific analyses. Thus, the use of physical evidence and application of the forensic sciences, in spite of the popular perception to the contrary, are not prominent in reality; systematic sleuthing and scientific successes do not characterize the criminal investigation process or what might be called, in other words, detective work.
Statistical Evidence And Forensic DNA Analysis are revolutionizing the possibilities of criminal investigation. databanks are alreadyused to identify The statistical methods governing laboratory proficiency http://www.iuscrim.mpg.de/forsch/krim/lindsey_e.html
Extractions: Contact Person: Samuel Lindsey ; phone: ++49 +761/7081-254 Time Frame: 2001 to 2002 Project Description: Advances in forensic science over the last decade are revolutionizing the possibilities of criminal investigation. In particular, the once controversial use of DNA analyses to link suspects to crimes is giving way to the construction of broad-based and nation-wide DNA databanks around the world. These databanks will make it possible to identify suspects through DNA analysis right from the start in a wide variety of cases. As a result, DNA evidence may be used to identify suspects and prosecute them for a broader range of crimes. A judge or juror faced with a DNA match must determine how likely it is that the person whose DNA profile matches an incriminating profile is actually the source of that DNA evidence. But how likely that is depends, among other things, on the integrity of the analysis, the estimated frequency of the DNA profile in some specified population, and any other evidence implying that the suspect is or is not the source of the evidence. Scientists disagree, however, about how to calculate the statistics associated with these uncertainties and exactly how to adjust them for DNA databank searches.

Extractions: The BCCLA recognizes and supports the aim of amending the Criminal Code and the Identification of Criminals Act to allow law enforcement authorities to obtain a warrant to collect DNA samples from suspects in serious crimes, to demand DNA from those arrested for serious crimes, and to bank DNA information for legitimate law enforcement purposes. Framing policies and procedures to institute these practices and to identify their limits is a matter of some urgency, both because of the potential value of DNA printing as a law enforcement tool and because of the civil liberties issues that these practices raise. This brief is an attempt to put these issues in perspective and to make recommendations for policy that will put law enforcement and civil liberties interests in balance. DNA samples are now most frequently analyzed in North America by a technique called restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP). For each sample, a DNA sequence from the same chromosomal region is cut, and a stain or picture of it is produced, which is called an autoradiograph. Autoradiographs look like bar codes. These are visually compared to discover if the patterns of DNA are identical. This process is typically repeated four other times for different chromosomal regions of the DNA molecule. If the DNA patterns for each of the five chromosomal regions are identical, a match has been found. The confidence that the two samples have been correctly matched (that they came from the same person) depends on the quality of the samples and the stringency with which the tests were applied. If there is a discrepancy in any of the five samples, the tissue samples did not come from the same person.

Extractions: Amnesty International(1) The image of Muscovites hauling down the statue of Feliks Dzerzhinsky in Lubyanka Square in August of 1991 symbolized the change that had taken place in the position of the KGB in the late 1980s. Much like the entire Soviet leadership, the previously all-powerful KGB had been thoroughly discredited by the streams of compromising facts which Gorbachev's glasnost' had unleashed. In the euphoria over the prospect of a democratic Russia immediately after the break-up of the Soviet Union, the security service was sized down, stripped of many of its powers, renamed, and supposedly placed under democratic supervision. The break with the past had occurred, but was it sufficiently radical? As studies of revolutions have consistently shown, a complete break with the past is impossible. One can replace some key politicians and bureaucrats but not the whole bureaucracy, as that would leave the country ungovernable. Russia and the KGB are no exceptions to that rule. It is probably an illusion to believe that the KGB legacy can be eradicated easily; old dogs don't usually learn new tricks. Such a state of affairs may not be particularly desirable but it does not have to pose an insurmountable obstacle to the democratization of the FSB's activities. Openness in its work and tight democratic control are of vital importance here and it is exactly in this regard that Boris Yel'tsin and his colleagues have failed hopelessly.

Enforcing The Laws And Paying Taxes: Is There A Connection As IRS Assistant Commissioner (criminal investigation) and a a witness in any futurecriminal proceedings and a variety of legal sounding methods to formulate http://www.ustreas.gov/irs/ci/articles/docpolicetaxes.htm
Extractions: IRS Assistant Commissioner (Criminal Investigation) When you became a law enforcement officer, you took an oath to fairly and to impartially enforce the laws under your jurisdiction. You dedicated your life to public service. This is a serious responsibility that affects many aspects of your personal and professional life. The public's perception of you is based not only on the way in which you enforce the law, but also in the way that you comply with it. That is why I would like to talk about a very important issue, your duty and responsibility to pay income taxes. Recently the IRS Criminal Investigation Division has prosecuted tax professionals for preparing false income tax returns for their clients, who were primarily law enforcement officers. During trial of the tax preparers, questions were raised about the police officer's knowledge of the false deductions or omission of income, the degree of participation by the officer in the filing of the false returns, the potential criminal and/or civil liability of the officer, and the credibility of the officer in other matters. Here are answers to questions commonly asked by law enforcement personnel on tax matters.
