Crime scenes within correctional facilities present investigators with myriad challenges, not only in working, investigating, and collecting evidence, but also in obtaining reliable eyewitness accounts. As a result, they are some of the most challenging cases and environments that any investigator will encounter.
Crime Scene Processing in Correctional Facilities addresses the unique challenges in such prison, correction, and detention facilities, outlining specific procedures, techniques, and that will reliably improve any investigation. Issues of contaminated crime scenes can result from guards trying to regain order, few to no dedicated staff with no training or understanding of crime scenes, a lack of cooperation from witnesses and victims, and even the lack of cooperation from the on-scene incident commanderwhose main objective may be to return the facility to normal rather than allow for the proper collection of evidence. Whatever the challenges faced, this book tackles all of them. While the processing of crimes scenes entails standard procedures and practices, a correctional setting can provide anything but. As a result, the investigator must be resourceful, tenaciousyet patientand perform their duties with objectivity and ethical integrity throughout the process.
