...We can learn a lot from firearm evidence left at a crime scene. Casings, dust, and bullets can all connect someone to the scene of the crime and the weapon. It is important that investigators know the proper routine of firearm evidence collection at the scene so they do not ruin such important evidence. When collecting a firearm at the scene it is important to know the correct steps. All firearms are collected differently. Semiautomatic pistols are often used in crimes because of their size and quick reload. When a semiautomatic pistol is found at the scene of a crime the first thing that needs to be done is to assign the firearm an evidence number. Then photographs need to be taken along with measurements of the location. When these are done you can collect the firearm. When collecting the firearm you want to grab the grip of the pistol, making sure that the weapon is pointed down and away from anyone else. It is important that you avoid touching the smooth surfaces on the weapon because that is the most likely area for a latent print to be. The next step is to release the magazine. To do this you press the magazine release button and put it in a paper bag or firearm box. Next you must eject the cartridge that...

...Renitra Woods CJ370 Unit 9 Assignment July 14, 2014 Footprint and footwear evidence is very valuable. A footprint is the impression that every individual leaves on a surface that has some sort of moisture, it can also be left on a dry surface if the footwear or feet are damp they walk on it. If footprints are undisturbed they can last on a surface from a small amount of time to a long period of time. Footprints should be used as evidence because footprints may be able to assist investigators in proving that an individual committed a crime, or was present at the scene of a crime and could have possibly committed the crime. Footprints are beneficial but not as beneficial as fingerprints or DNA evidence (LaMance, 2000). When investigators look at footprints as evidence they are usually focused on the soles and heel indents, cuts or tread of the shoe itself, and other details such as the type of shoe and the size. One of the first things investigators want to do when collecting a footprint on a scene is take a photograph, document what and where they found the evidence, and create a plaster mold. Footwear is extremely important because it allows examiners to analyze the type of shoe the victim or the perpetrator had on, the size, if there was any damage in cases that may involve the individual wearing footwear such as a high heel shoe as well as the treads of the shoe sole. Preserving and Photographing the evidence is important as well. When investigators approach...

...Explication and Argumentation to a Specific Audience It’s accurately described as the world’s online marketplace, connecting buyers and sellers both near and far. The vast majority of people are casual, intermittent users. But maybe you are ready to take that next step and make selling on eBay a full-time vocation. Nearly anyone can sign up and begin selling immediately, but only those who maintain the status of PowerSeller are able to financially maximize their selling experience. EBay makes a portion of their profits by extracting a fee from each attempted and actual sale. This fee is deducted from the sellers account. The fees are structured at a lower percentage for those who generate the most profit for eBay; those are the PowerSellers. A PowerSeller typically saves 5% over members of the general selling class. Other benefits exist beyond reduced fees, including access to group health insurance and representation in customer disputes. Even United Parcel Service in a cooperative agreement with eBay will offer shipping discounts to PowerSellers. With benefits such as these available, it’s obvious that the PowerSeller program is an attempt by eBay to attract recruits. The decision point for interested individuals as with any decision often comes down to the overall opportunity cost. Those can be weighed by viewing eBay’s PowerSeller and Top Rated Seller Policy. The website itself is accessible on the internet or smartphone as eBay.com. The PowerSeller requirement...

...Dylan Anthony 4/11/16 How to Reload .45 Caliber Ammunition When reloading ammunition, you can reload any type of ammunition ranging from a .22 to a .45 caliber bullet. In order to be able to reload your own ammunition, you need a variety of equipment that is very costly in the beginning but will pay off in the long run down the road. Nowadays, the price to make your own is a lot cheaper than a box of bullets from the gun shop. The necessary equipment that is required to start the process is 1 of 2 presses, either a turret press or progressive press. The set of dies, which comes in a set of 4, that actually reshape and place the new bullet into the casing. A powder scale that measures in grains is needed but a digital one is recommended. Case lube to protect the case from damage and also to protect the dies in the process. Gun powder with a funnel and the bullet itself is also needed to reload your ammunition that have collected brass for. It is very important that you clean every single brass casing that you collected from previous fires because this will allow the casings the slide into the dies without damaging the dies. Also, inspect each casing before starting the process to make sure that there are no nicks in the casing that will cause a misfire that could injure a person. First, using the full length sizer die reshapes the brass casing to its original shape because when its fired the brass expands. Included with this die is a capper pin that...

...review/2009_07_review01.htm). “The examination process typically begins when an examiner receives a suspect firearm, along with bullets (the projectiles) and spent cartridge cases recovered from a crime scene.” (http://www.fbi.gov/about-us/lab/forensic-science-communications/fsc/july2009/review/2009_07_review01.htm). Next, the suspect weapon is test-fired into a tank of water or a cotton filled recovery box so that bullets, together with their cartridge casings (which serve as a control) may be analyzed. The test-fired bullets are then examined via comparison microscope. This will confirm or rule out a relationship between the control and the bullets retrieved from a crime scene. According to the Firearms Tutorial, there are three possible results of comparison identification. Test-fired bullets and those retrieved from a crime scene may be related to the same weapon; may not be related to the same weapon; or not even be likened via this kind of test. It is not recommended that forensic examiners make assumptions founded primarily from test firing. Analyzing an image of the bullets and casings may be used to compare and even identify the weapon from which the bullet was fired. (http://library.med.utah.edu/WebPath/TUTORIAL/GUNS/GUNINTRO.html). Additionally, standards have been established for consecutively matching striae, or CMS. Bullets...

...FASCINATION OF FIREARMS What is our fascination with firearms? Big or small, long or short, old or new, it doesn't really matter what type of firearm it is, most all human beings have a strong fascination with them, even if you don't like to use them, they're still interesting, and everyone knows what a "gun" is. But why the fascination? When you break it down it's a pretty simple idea and process as to how they work, nothing really complicated. Yet we have been making them for hundreds of years, and I'm sure we will continue to make them for several hundred more. Now when I say "firearm" most people probably think of a pistol, or perhaps a rifle of some sort, but when you really think about what a firearm is, you could consider a cannon a firearm. Obviously cannons are fun, but not really convenient or strictly-speaking, legal. That being said, it's easier to explain that firearms come in many shapes and sizes including handguns, shotguns, rifles and if you want to stretch, cannons as well, with each of these categories holding several sub-categories. To put it simply, there are numerous types of firearms designed for people of all ages, sizes, and tastes. There's pretty much a gun for everyone. So to address the question concerning the human fascination with firearms, it's pretty easy to understand, like any deadly weapon, having possession of a tool that can end life, especially with such ease and simplicity, is rather empowering. But I think for some people, including...

...the firearm's action. In case of non-crimped blanks, it also serves to pulverise the plug to prevent it leaving as a projectile. For movie use, specially designed blank-firing firearms are often used, which increases the margin of safety as they cannot be loaded with live ammunition. 5-in-1 blanks are specifically made for theatrical use and are commonly used in real firearms for dramatic effect. 5-in-1 blanks can function in a variety of different calibers, hence the name. Special blank cartridges are also used for applications where the explosive power of a cartridge is needed, but a projectile is not. Blank cartridges were commonly used for launching tear-gas or rifle grenades, though some types of grenades are capable of trapping the bullet of a live round. Larger blanks are also used in line launching guns, such as the line launching kit for the Mossberg 500 shotgun. Blank cartridges as used in nail guns Blank rimfire cartridges, commonly called power loads, are also used in some nail guns (powder-actuated tools), where the power is tapped to force a heavy piston into the nail, with enough force to bury its full length in steel orconcrete. Some forms of fast draw competitions use special blanks that are loaded with a layer of slow burning rifle powder on top of a thin layer of faster-burning pistol powder. The pistol powder...

Separate your list into the five requirement categories: input, output, process, performance, and controls. This will be graded upon whether you listed all of the requirements stated in the JAD session and whether you put the requirements in the correct categories. Thus, you need to simply list the five requirement categories and, under each one, use bullet points to list the requirements stated in the JAD session for that category. For Output • The Web site must report online volume statistics every four or five hours, and hourly during peak periods. • The inventory system must produce a daily report showing the part number, description, quantity on hand, allocated, available, and unit cost of all sorted by part number. • The registering system must provide suppliers with up to date specification. • The student analysis system must produce a quarterly report that identifies. • TIMS will manage class scheduling, handle student registration, track classes that are conducted, and produce various kinds of output.
