Homework: Evolution of Policing
Watch the following videos from the University Library:

Research and develop an understanding of the following:

Choose one of the acts to focus on and then identify an event that falls within the jurisdiction of that act.

o Summarize the event, including the who, what, where, when, and how. Discuss how the offender was caught.

o Describe the use of technology, DNA, forensics, biometrics, and any other criminal identification tool used in the case.
o Discuss what impact crime and global crimes, such as human trafficking, have on crime control policies.
