THERE ARE 2 PARTS Assignment 1: Offenders’ Rights This assignment focuses on a suspect’s rights at the point of arrest and questioning before or after he or she is arrested. Centervale Police Officer Michael James is questioning a suspect. When the suspect asks whether he can leave, Officer James tells him that he cannot leave and continues questioning without informing the subject of his rights. On the basis of this scenario, answer the following questions: •When does the court assume a subject to be under arrest? •What is the difference between an interview and an interrogation? •What rights does a subject have, and where do these rights come into play? •When should a subject always be told of his or her Miranda rights? •Under the circumstances described, will the information obtained by Officer James, after telling the subject that he is not free to leave, be ruled by the court to be inadmissible? Submission Details: •By Saturday, July 26, 2014, in a minimum of 250 words, post your responses to the Discussion Area. •By Wednesday, July 30, 2014, respond to at least two of your classmates’ posts by commenting on their examples and explanations.

Assignment 2: Identification of Suspects by Using Scientific Principles Today, law enforcement can identify suspects by using disciplines based on scientific principles. Scientists use two main techniques—fingerprint comparison and DNA analysis—to determine whether the fingerprints or DNA samples found at a crime scene match those of a suspect. Prepare a 400- to 500-word, double-spaced report. In your report, respond to the following: •Give historical information about each technique. List the uses and functions of these techniques. •Explain the limitations of each technique. •Explain how these techniques can be challenged in court. (Refer the Argosy University online library and/or the Internet.) •Using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet, find examples of the application of popular techniques used for identifying subjects. For the report, use Times New Roman, 12-point font. Provide citations for the references in the APA style.
