Detective Turner Crime Investigation

The case I chose to write on is based on a DVD that we watched in class called ‘Beaten by a hair’. In this case, a woman was reported missing after she went to work and never returned home. After the police discovered a bloody pillow case in the woods, near her house, they linked it to the missing pillow case in the woman’s room, and then realized that they had a murder case on their hands. A mystery in the case was that one of the local neighbors had mentioned seeing the woman leave through the front door of her house but the evidence says different, so investigators had to find out who left the house that morning. I am interested in this case because it was very intriguing how the forensic officers put all the pieces

Individuals involved in this case include: Kim Magnum who’s 30 years of age, has a high school education and has been accused for a robbery exceeding the limit of $5,000. He has a criminal history of robbing stores at gun point but states that he has changed for the better. Magnum has a fiancée, Leslie Creemore. S/he is also the age of 30, has a school education and no criminal record. She also states that “she will do anything for Magnum.” Furthermore, Jay Cashman is a teller at the Yourtown Bank of Commerce, s/he is the witness in this case and was allegedly held at gunpoint by the robber, and had to testify against the robber who stole the money. Cashman has finished high school, has been a teller for the last 5 years and is known as a valued employee with no criminal record. Lastly, a constable working at the Yourtown Police Service named Marlowe Gumshore is also marginally involved in this case. This is because he had conducted a search against the robber. He went to police college in Aylmer

According to Chesapeake Police Officer Noble and Officer Collins, the above petition was filed on June 13, 2016, in Chesapeake, Virginia.

In the case of Lobato v. the State of Nevada, it is hard to see how someone could be convicted with evidence that does not make very much sense at all. My groups responsibility was to cover the prosecution side and five pieces of evidence of the case using the information from the news article by Joshua Longobardy titled, “Kirsten Blaise Lobato is accused in a gruesome slaying. Did she do it?”. Upon the detective arriving to the scene of the crime, they removed the debris that covered the body from complete view. This debris included a full sheet of cardboard with a bloody footprint on it and a clear plastic bag wrapped around the groin region. Once this was removed it was discovered that the penis had been sliced off from the base, as well as six of his teeth were found near his body. After several days they were able to identify the man as Duran Bailey, a 44-year-old black male. Another piece of evidence recovered at first with Baileys personal belongings was a piece of chewed gum. When the detectives called Lobato in for questioning, she gave them a statement of how she pulled a knife on a man who tried to attack her. This statement however was for a completely different altercation than what the police were questioning for. Other evidence that came into question were the tire impressions near the entrance of the enclosure, fingerprints lifted from the dumpster, and a foreign piece of hair on Baileys groin region. The argument being made from

Upon our arrival, a Hispanic male later identified as Juan Navarro opened the front door but not the security screen door of the home. I advised Navarro that I was the North Las Vegas Police Officer and was at his home because of the 911 disconnect. I asked Navarro if anyone else lived in the home to which he responded his three kids and the mother(Miriam Garcia) of his children lived there as well. I asked Navarro if we could speak to them to ensure that they were all in good health. At this point, Garcia came to the door and Navarro told me he would not open the door at that they were all "ok". Garcia then opened the screen door and when she did I noticed Navarro had two fresh diagonal scratches on his neck as well as two small cuts on his neck.

PD (Tonkinson & Moyer), Pottsville PD, & Frackville PD (Wendy) were already there. We proceeded to Granny's and observed the silver Impala parked in the lot. Officer Moyer & Tonkinson spoke with the clerk who related the female is staying in room 29 and WHITTEN is in room 31. Room 29 was registered to TASSONE (the victim) who later authorized police to enter the room to search for HECKMAN. Before Pottsville PD was able to make contact with TASSONE for permission to search the room I was unable to make contact with anyone at room 29. I then tried room 31 and Marquese WHITTEN eventually opened the door. Another female was observed inside lying on the bed who was identified as Bobby Jo ROHRBACH. Pottsville police Officer asked Marquese on the whereabouts of HECKMAN and he said he had no idea where she was and hasn't seen her. When asked about her being in his vehicle he denied having any knowledge of it and said he has been driving his BMW all day. He said Bobby Jo ROHRBACH doesn't like HECKMAN so she hasn't been around. Pottsville PD requested for consent to check the room for HECKMAN and WHITTED granted permission. While inside a metal grinder with marijuana was observed lying in plain view on top of the table located against the wall to the right after you enter the front door. WHITTED was asked for request to search the room for the pistol, but refused permission stating we were messing with his sleep and said to get a warrant. After leaving the room the female, Bobby Jo ROHRBACH requested police to have her grinder returned to her. She was informed that it would not be returned to her. Before leaving I took custody of the grinder with marijuana and gave it to Officer

When you see the shows such as Homicide Hunter or Killer Instincts many times my mom and I try to figure out who is the murder. Most of the time my prediction is right because of the details my mom misses, and putting together all the clues. From then on I realised I had a gift, even if it was I was just watching television show. That is what sparked my interest the criminal justice area. I have contemplated the career choices that would best fit my interest leaving me with Homicide Detective and Criminologist. While both careers deal with criminal justice they differ greatly in the type of work environment, pay, skills/education.
