Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Domestic drug enforcement takes many forms, from the rural patrol officer who happens upon a small-scale mobile Òshake and bakeÓ methamphetamine lab during a routine traffic stop, to the city narcotics detective who initiates a low-level buy-bust operation that nets a few hits of crack cocaine on the street corner, to the local, state, and federal agents working in multiagency task forces that coordinate a sting operation that nets thousands of kilos of near-pure cocaine being transported by tractor-trailer. Regardless of the form, there is a high probability that these authorities have exploited access to known offenders and exerted pressure on those individuals to gather inside information on illicit drug sales. These confidential informants provide intelligence on the inner workings of drug operations in exchange for leniency or remuneration, providing a relatively cheap source of intelligence that fuels much of the ongoing war on drugs. In other instances, law enforcement authorities will reach out to members of the criminal underworld who are willing to provide valuable intelligence in exchange for money.ÊDespite the central role of informants in contemporary police operations, little is known about the shadowy relationships among law enforcement, snitches, and offenders. Based on ethnographic fieldwork in the narcotics, homicide, and street-level vice operations in two major metropolitan police departments,ÊSpeaking Truth to PowerÊtakes readers to the front lines of the war on drugs to unravel this complex web of information exchange.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just like Scheherazade, undercover agents talk to save their lives. If they put in a poor performance, they don't see the curtain rise again. ART OF DARKNESS pries open the virtuoso identity techniques practiced by undercover operatives, fugitives, disguise artists, pranksters, con artists, and federally protected witnesses. It draws on original interviews with undercover operators in order to show how identity artists on both sides of the law obtain fake ID, develop a disguise, build a cover story, maintain believability in street performances, and deal with threats to their identities-all without formal acting training. ART OF DARKNESS inhabits the grey areas of morality as it exposes identity roleplays at the borders of lawfulness. In it you'll find stories of: law-enforcement workers who adopt the techniques of criminals in order to catch them but somehow get caught up in their own trick identities; self-defined artists whose work also has a criminal dimension; criminal informants who masterfully play sides and roles against each other; and hoaxsters and impersonators who may perform trick identities primarily for gain but do so with tremendous inventiveness and a directorial consciousness. This book may explode any remaining notion you harbor that you are not at some level a member of the intelligence community, discerning who is "for real" and who is presenting a self for personal gain.

Download or read book Punishment and Social Control written by Stanley Cohen and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 532 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While crime, law, and punishment are subjects that have everyday meanings not very far from their academic representations, "social control" is one of those terms that appear in the sociological discourse without any corresponding everyday usage. This concept has a rather mixed lineage. "After September 11" has become a slogan that conveys all things to all people but carries some very specific implications on interrogation and civil liberties for the future of punishment and social control.The editors hold that the already pliable boundaries between ordinary and political crime will become more unstable; national and global considerations will come closer together; domestic crime control policies will be more influenced by interests of national security; measures to prevent and control international terrorism will cast their reach wider (to financial structures and ideological support); the movements of immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers will be curtailed and criminalized; taken-for-granted human rights and civil liberties will be restricted. In the midst of these dramatic social changes, hardly anyone will notice the academic field of "punishment and social control" being drawn closer to political matters.Criminology is neither a "pure" academic discipline nor a profession that offers an applied body of knowledge to solve the crime problem. Its historical lineage has left an insistent tension between the drive to understand and the drive to be relevant. While the scope and orientation of this new second edition remain the same, in recognition of the continued growth and diversity of interest in punishment and social control, new chapters have been added and several original chapters have been updated and revised.

Book excerpt: An emotionally complex and literate page-turner, Ken Mercer's Slow Fire marks the electrifying debut of a new series featuring Will Magowan. One morning, Will Magowan opens his mail and finds a mysterious job offer to become the police chief of Haydenville, a tiny town in rural Northern California. Once a highly decorated LAPD narcotics detective, Will was terminated after a devastating personal tragedy drove him to become addicted to the heroin he was charged with keeping off the streets. Fresh out of rehab but jobless and estranged from his wife, Will now lives alone in an old Airstream trailer on the fringes of L.A. Out of options, Will accepts the job. After moving to Haydenville, he discovers that the once postcard-perfect town is being corrupted by a criminal influence that threatens to destroy it. Haydenville's normally law-abiding citizens begin to erupt in acts of unspeakable violence. Pets are going missing at an alarming rate. Stately Victorian homes are falling into disrepair. With only a rookie officer at his disposal, Will risks everything in his quest to save Haydenville—entering a labyrinth of dark secrets that have remained buried for almost 40 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Listen, Leaf,' Pritchard said, 'the hash is neither here nor there. You're in a lot more trouble than possession of a bit of dope. You've got big problems, man... big problems.' He looked at me with something akin to sympathy. 'How did you get into such a fix?' I'd been asking myself the same question. Operation Julie in 1977 remains Britain's biggest ever drugs bust. The work of eleven police forces, it resulted in the break-up of one of the largest LSD co-operatives in the world, the arrest of 120 people and, according to reports, the seizure of six million trips' worth of LSD crystal, valued at £100 million. Overnight, the price of a tab went from £1 to £5. This is the first insider account of how it felt to be caught up in - and by - Operation Julie.

Download or read book Patrol Field Problems and Solutions written by Harry W. More and published by Charles C. Thomas Publisher. This book was released on 2001 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume presents case examples of 847 common situations that police officers encounter and explains how to handle them; the text aims to serve as an operational manual for police officers in daily operations in the field in patrol, investigations, vice, traffic, and juvenile units. The book also serves as a basis for discussing operational procedures, policies, and regulations. In addition, it is intended for use in basic training classes. Field training officers can use the field guide as part of the evaluation process when interacting with probationary officers; first-line supervisors can use it to assess how officers resolve problems in terms of application of the law. The preface explains the need for police officers to arrive at a practical solution to many of the problems they confront in the field. The problems came from the research literature; a review of judicial decisions; and examples provided by line officers, supervisors, and managers. The introduction presents 12 principles to consider when forming a philosophy for policing and specifies the 7 central virtues of police officers as prudence, trust, effacement of self-interest, courage, intellectual honesty, justice, and responsibility. It also presents a law enforcement code of ethics. The book2s other chapters briefly explain common situations encountered by police officers and the appropriate way to deal with the situation. Situations involve assault and battery, animal control, anti-noise ordinances, arrest warrants, burglary, child abuse, coordination with other agencies, crime scene issues, and deadly force. Additional situations relate to evidence, extradition, family disturbances, hate crimes, hit-and-run incidents, hot pursuit, loiterers, malicious mischief, drug law offenses, and protection orders. Further situations relate to sex offenses, search and seizure, information sources, traffic law enforcement, truancy, unlawful assembly, vagrancy, wanted and missing persons, weapons, and officers injured or killed.
