different (the rule of precedent) - 2. We consider a law unjust if it discriminates n
unjust characteristics (Case study, The fifth
estate, Air Security) - 3. Justice Should be impartial, that is, the law
should be applied regardless of a persons
position or financial status (Class discussion,
the homeless and access to justice, social
services) - 4. We expect the law to be just in that it
conforms to societys values and beliefs (Class
discussion, DNA registry vs. Privacy)

6Review Intro to Social Sciences
- Sociology
- Science of society, social institutions, and
social relationships, and specifically the
systematic study of the development, structure,
interaction, and collective behaviour of
organized human groups. It emerged at the end of
the 19th century through the work of Émile
Durkheim in France, Max Weber and Georg Simmel in
Germany, and Robert E. Park and Albion Small in
the U.S. Sociologists use observational
techniques, surveys and interviews, statistical
analysis, controlled experiments, and other
methods to study subjects such as the family,
ethnic relations, schooling, social status and
class, bureaucracy, religious movements,
deviance, the elderly, and social change.
7Review Intro to Social Sciences, continued.
- Anthropology
- The scientific study of the origin, the
behavior, and the physical, social, and cultural
development of humans. - Psychology
- Scientific discipline that studies mental
processes and behaviour in humans and other
animals. Literally meaning "the study of the
mind," psychology focuses on both individual and
group behaviour. Clinical psychology is concerned
with the diagnosis and treatment of mental
disorders. Other specialized fields of psychology
include child psychology, educational psychology,
sports psychology, social psychology, and
comparative psychology. The issues studied by
psychologists cover a wide spectrum, including
learning, cognition, intelligence, motivation,
emotion, perception, personality, and the extent
to which individual differences are shaped by
genetics or environment. The methods used in
psychological research include observation,
interviews, psychological testing, laboratory
experimentation, and statistical analysis.
8Review Intro to Social Sciences, continued.
- Criminology
- Scientific study of nonlegal aspects of
crime, including its causes and prevention.
Criminology originated in the 18th century when
social reformers began to question the use of
punishment for retribution rather than deterrence
and reform. In the 19th century, scientific
methods began to be applied to the study of
crime. Today criminologists commonly use
statistics, case histories, official records, and
sociological field methods to study criminals and
criminal activity, including the rates and kinds
of crime within geographic areas. Their findings
are used by lawyers, judges, probation officers,
law-enforcement and prison officials,
legislators, and scholars to better understand
criminals and the effects of treatment and
prevention.
9Review Intro to Social Sciences, continued.
- Victimology
- Victimology is the scientific study of
victimization, including the relationships
between victims and offenders, the interactions
between victims and the criminal justice system
that is, the police and courts, and corrections
officials and the connections between victims
and other social groups and institutions, such as
the media, businesses, and social movements.
Victimology is however not restricted to the
study of victims of crime alone but may cater to
other forms of human rights violations that are
not necessarily crime.
10Review Investigation
- An Overview of Investigating
- 1. Defining an Investigation
- 2. Practices to follow during an Investigation
- 3. Art or Science?
- Types of Investigations
- 1. Criminal-Non criminal
- 2. Reactive- Proactive
- 3. Overt-Covert
- The Investigating Questions
- 1. Patterns, Leads, Tips, and Theories
Please see the wiki for intro to investigations!
11Review Investigation
- Defining an Investigation
- "to examine and inquire into something
systematically and thoroughly" - The word investigate can be traced back to the
Latin word investigare, meaning "to search into.
- Investigare is based on another Latin word,
vestigare, meaning "to track or to trace."
12Investigation, Art or Science?
- Both!
- Investigating is a science because there are
certain rules that should be followed to conduct
a successful investigation. Pure sciences and
applied sciences play an increasingly important
role in the investigating process. - Investigating is an art because it depends on
the human skills of the investigator, including
interpersonal communication and creativity.
13Review Investigation, Continued
- Practices to follow during an Investigation
- A logical sequence must be followed
- Real, physical evidence must be legally obtained
- Real, physical evidence must be properly stored
and preserved. - Witnesses must be identified, interviewed, and
- prepared for any potential or actual
litigation - Leads must be developed.
- Reports and documentation must be collected
- Information must be accurately and completely
recorded. - Evidence collected must correlate to
- the claim cause of action, or offence charged
14Review Investigation, Continued
- Criminal vs. Non Criminal
- Criminal jurisdiction of police/government
agencies. - Non-criminal investigations involve the
investigation - of non-criminal incidents or events.
- Non-criminal investigations may be conducted by
the public, police or private investigators. The
main difference between non-criminal
investigations by the public, police and by
private investigators is that police
investigations are funded by the government,
whereas private investigations are paid for by
individual clients or businesses.
15Review Investigation, Continued
- Reactive vs. Proactive, Overt vs. Covert
- Reactive investigation is one that is instigated
on the basis of a complaint registered by a
victim or client. For example, a person is the
victim of a robbery and reports this robbery to
the police-the police then conduct a reactive
investigation. - 2 Types of reactive The preliminary
investigation and the follow-up or latent
investigation. The preliminary investigation is
the initial inquiry into a reported crime and is
generally conducted by a uniformed patrol
officer.
16Investigation, Continued.
- 5 tasks during the preliminary reactive
investigation by a patrol officer - Conducts a preliminary search of the area of
crime to determine if the suspect is still
present - Renders first aid to any injured parties,
- Detains, separates, and interviews any possible
suspects or witnesses - Restricts access to the area where the crime was
committed to prevent the destruction of evidence.
- Prepares the first written report of the crime,
which is generally called an incident or
complaint report.
17Investigation, Continued.
- Proactive investigations are investigations
conducted by the police based on their own
initiative. - The proactive investigation is
- Designed to catch a criminal in the act of
committing a crime, rather than waiting until a
citizen reports a crime. The three main types of
proactive investigations are - Decoy operations
- Repeat offender programs
- Undercover drug operations
18Investigation, Continued
- An overt investigation is one that is conducted
openly-investigators do not try to hide their
true identity or hide the fact that they are
conducting the investigation. Most reactive
investigations are overt. - A covert investigation, on the other hand, is
conducted in secret-the investigator tries to
hide his identity and the fact that he is
conducting an investigation. Generally proactive
investigations are covert. - Covert investigations are more commonly called
undercover investigations.
19Investigation, Continued
- A pattern is a series of similarities that may
link particular cases or indicate that the same
person is committing a series of crimes. - Leads are clues or pieces of information that aid
in the progress of an investigation. Leads can be
physical evidence or information received by
witnesses or other persons or through
surveillances, undercover investigations, and
record searches. A lead is anything that can
assist an investigator in resolving an
investigation.
20Investigation, Continued
- Tips are leads provided by citizens that aid in
the progress of an investigation. Generally tips
involve the identity of the suspect (eg. Crime
Stoppers) - Theories are beliefs regarding the case based on
evidence, patterns, leads, tips, and other
information developed or uncovered in a case.
Theories are important because they direct the
investigation. Investigators have to be very
careful in building theories about a case,
because if the theory is wrong, it may lead them
in the wrong direction.

23Review Self Defence
- Krav Maga (pronounced /?kr??v m?'g??/ Hebrew
??? ????, IPA 'k?av ma'ga, lit. "contact
combat", "close combat" or "full contact") is an
eclectic hand-to-hand combat system developed in
Israel that involves wrestling, grappling and
striking techniques, mostly known for its
extremely efficient and counter-attacks, as it is
also taught to elite special forces, law
enforcement/emergency service personnel and
civilians around the world. - Krav Maga has a philosophy emphasizing threat
neutralization, simultaneous defensive and
offensive manoeuvres, and aggression. Krav Maga
is used by the IDF Special Forces units and
several closely related variations have been
developed and adopted by law enforcement and
intelligence organizations, Mossad, Shin Bet,
FBI, SWAT units of the NYPD and United States
Special Operations Forces.
24Review, Self Defence, continued
- 6 Basic Principles of Krav Maga
- Maintaining environmental awareness, know your
surroundings - Disengage the attacker by giving up valuables,
but never move to a second location at the
attackers request - If attacked, counter attack as soon as possible
- Target attacks to the body's most vulnerable
points such as the eyes, jaw, throat, groin, knee
etc. - Neutralize the opponent as quickly as possible by
responding with an unbroken stream of counter
attacks. - Maintain awareness of surroundings while dealing
with the threat in order to look for escape
routes, further attackers, objects that could be
used to defend and so on. - As Students/ Civilians, it is
- very important that you escape and/
- or disengage as a primary means
- of self defence
