Presentation Transcript

Crime and Criminology • Crime occurs in all segments of society • Wide range of offenses committed, not just street crime • The general public views crime as a major social problem • Some are fascinated with crime

What factors do you think contribute to crime? • Large underclass • Urban areas in which the poorest and wealthiest live in close proximity • Racism and discrimination • Failure of the educational system • Troubled American family • Easy access to handguns

What factors do you think contribute to crime? • A culture that defines success in terms of material wealth • Drug use • Peer support • Violence on TV • Lack of punishment • These factors are used in development of theory

What is Criminology? Criminology is the scientific approach to the study of the nature, extent, cause, and control of criminal behavior

Most important areas of interest for criminologists? • The development of criminal law and its use to define crime • The cause of law violations • The methods used to control criminal behavior • The extent of crime

Criminology • Criminology uses the scientific method to pose research questions (hypotheses), gather data, create theories, and test their validity. • Example – Hirschi (attachment to delinquent peers and delinquency)

Criminology integrates knowledge from many fields: Criminal Justice Sociology Psychology Economics Political Science Natural Sciences (ex. Biology)

Categories of Contemporary Criminological Theories Psycho- logical Theory Choice Theory Biosocial Theory Integrated Theory Criminal Behavior Social Conflict Theory Social Process Theory Social Structural Theory

Historical Roots of Criminology • Utilitarian philosophy of Becarria • Biological determinism of Lombroso • Social theory of Durkheim • Political philosophy of Marx

Criminology v. Criminal Justice Criminology explains etiology, extent, & nature of crime Criminal Justice describes, analyzes, & explains behavior & operation of agencies of justice & effective methods of crime control, sentencing, treatment, etc.

Have you ever……. • followed someone & intentionally harassed, annoyed, tormented, or embarrassed them? • smoked marijuana? • pierced a part of your body other than your ear? • taken something from your roommate, partner, sibling, parent, stranger without consent? • been to a strip club or read porn material? • physically hurt or threatened to hurt someone?

2 points are important First….. • Criminal offenders are not always or very “different” from ourselves • They include friends, colleagues, neighbors, strangers, & often ourselves • Society creates an “outsider” view of “criminals” • But, the lines are hazy & crime is common

Second ….. • Some behaviors are criminal & obviously “bad” • other behaviors may be considered “bad” but not criminal • & still other behaviors are criminal but not necessarily “bad”!

Crime & Deviance Deviance isbehavior departing from social norms A Crime isconduct violating law & subject to punishment • Not all criminal acts are deviant (ex. Prohibition) • Not all deviant acts are criminal • Each changes over time & place

Crime & Deviance – Sociology of Law • Criminologists are concerned with how deviant acts become crimes and vice versa • When should crimes be decriminalized? • Marijuana, gambling, sodomy • When should deviant behavior become outlawed? • Smoking, marijuana, curfew

Crime & Deviance – Sociology of Law • Criminologists also concerned with the impact of the law on human behavior • Example – strict DWI laws • Reducing BAC level to .08

harassed someone smoked pot pierced body taken something strip club; porn hurt someone Deviance Crime Deviance Crime Deviance Crime Deviance Crime Deviance Crime Deviance Crime OK, back to the survey...

Perspectives in Criminology Perspective: The relationship of aspects of a subject to each other and to a whole: a point of view.

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior Consensus View – Most Popular • Crime reflects the values, beliefs, and opinions of society • Law defines crime • Agreement exists on outlawed behavior • Laws apply to all citizens equally

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior • Criminal law is a social control device • Guides people into what are and aren't appropriate behaviors • If hold consensus view of crime then what causes it? • Two major lines of thought • Free Will • Biological, psychological, and sociological causes

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior Conflict view • Society is a collection of diverse groups in constant conflict • Law is a tool of the ruling class • Designed to protect the affluent • Crime is a politically defined concept • “Real crimes” are not outlawed or not punished

Law is used to control the underclass • If hold a conflict view then what causes crime? • Unequal distribution of power

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior Interactionist view • Crimes are not inherently evil or immoral acts, but defined that way • Has no meaning unless people react to it • Moral entrepreneurs define crime

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior • Crimes are illegal because society defines them that way • Criminal labels are life-transforming events • If interactionist view of crime then what causes crime? • Contact and exposure to criminal justice system

Differing Views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior • Way criminologists define crime dominates their thinking and research

Differing views on the causes and controls of criminal behavior Definition of Crime Conflict view Consensus View Interactionist view

5 Quick Tips To Make Great Crime Scene & Forensic Presentations in 2024

Now that you chose a PowerPoint crime scene template, it's time to edit it. To help you get the most out of your template, we'll now go over five quick tips: 

1. Use High-Quality Images

If you don't use high-quality images, your presentation will look unprofessional. Make sure you only use the best quality images available. 

2. Keep It Brief

When you're filling out your crime slides template with content, keep it short. Adding too much information to your presentation will make your audience lose interest. 

3. Limit Animations

Animations in your presentation help add interest. But using too many animations on the elements in your slides can distract your audience.

4. Use Contrasting Colors

It's best to use contrasting colors for your background and text. This will help your text pop out and be easy to read. 

5. Limit Your Slides

Be sure to only include the most important slides. Just because your template has thirty slides, doesn't mean you have to use all of them.

Looking to take your PowerPoint presentation skills to the next level? In the next section, we'll cover a few resources that you can check out that'll help you become more proficient in PowerPoint. 

5 Top Crime Scene & Forensic PowerPoint Presentation Slide Trends

The information included in a crime scene and forensic presentation can be complex. That's where good design comes in handy. If you want to take your PowerPoint to the next level, keep these slide trends in mind:

1. Black and Gold

These are two colors that we often find in templates for this type of presentation. The black adds order and seriousness to the elements. While the gold helps to highlight the most important ones.

2. Minimalism

Don't let too many elements overwhelm your audience. Crime and forensic related information is naturally complex and can be too much in itself. Keep your PowerPoint presentation simple with a minimalist style.

3. Images Without a Background

Hand in hand with minimalism, images without background help to avoid unnecessary distractions. This lets you achieve a clear presentation, which includes eye-catching yet not redundant visual elements.

4. Large, Distinctive Headings

Especially if your PowerPoint touches on topics that may sound repetitive, headings can be helpful. Not only will the audience follow the thread of the presentation, but it'll be easier for you to stay on track. 

5. Columns and Grids

Many of the templates designed for crime and forensic presentations help you organize text and images in columns and grids. This way you can maintain the balance by attracting the public's attention without them missing out on any key details.

Salt Lake City, Utah – September 18 – 19, 2024

Best practices for responding to, investigating and prosecuting cases involving immigrant victims of domestic and sexual violence (september 18, 2024).

PowerPoint Presentation

Description

Immigrant victims of crime are often reluctant to call the police for help or to participate in the criminal justice process. In cases involving domestic violence, sexual assault, stalking, and child abuse the barriers are compounded, as victims often face immigration-related abuse and threats of deportation. This training will provide law enforcement, prosecutors, systems-based victim advocates, child welfare, and state agency staff, with information on the U and T visa programs, including how these programs stabilize victims and improve victim and community safety by increasing victims’ justice system participation, which enhances offender accountability. Participants will also learn prosecution best practices in the context of immigrant victim and offender dynamics, including pretrial and trial strategies to counter common defenses in cases involving immigrant victims of crime.
