Criminal Investigation Process Using Assignment 3

Please be extra careful and original. My school uses a Plagiarism program named “Safe Assign” I already had 3 papers come back claiming that they were plagiarized. Also, please use in word references. Here is a website to detail this program. https://help.blackboard.com/Learn/Instructor/Assignments/SafeAssign/SafeAssign_Originality_Reports

In the United States, both the federal government and the states have
authority to indict for criminal wrongdoing. The federal government and
each state have their own criminal statutes, court system, prosecutors,
and police agencies. Research articles from within the past three years on crime trial, prosecutor, and criminal investigator.

Write a 4- to 5-page paper in which you:

1. Put yourself in the role of a prosecutor and explain the importance
   of the final report to the prosecution of a case. Further, analyze the
   possible impact of poorly completed final reports on the prosecution of a
   case.
2. Review Figure 21.1, The Use of Evidence in the Stages of the
   Criminal Justice Process, in Chapter 21 of the text and specify the
   manner in which each stage of the criminal justice process helps to
   build a successfully litigated action. Provide a rationale to support
   the response.
3. Identify the three areas that Detective Richard Gautsch, a
   seasoned investigator, recommends an investigator focus on when giving
   courtroom testimony and discuss the importance of each area. Next,
   define a criminal investigator’s role in preparing a case for court.
   Analyze the manner in which the investigator cooperates with the
   prosecutor to enhance the courtroom presentation.
4. Differentiate not guilty and acquitted. Give your opinion as to
   whether or not a not guilty verdict means that the investigator failed.
   Support the position.
5. Predict one to two changes that will take place in criminal
   investigation in the next twenty years. Provide a rationale to support
   the response.
6. Use at least three quality academic resources in this
   assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar types of websites do not qualify
   as academic resources.
