The straightforward case, State of Montana vs. Michael Curtis Soule, appeared to be Vehicular Homicide While Under the Influence. But costly mistakes that happened on the law enforcement end, ultimately altered the case into a complex situation of who done it. Such small errors like missing evidence and being caught up in the moment can change the outcome of any case to guilty or not guilty. In this particular case, investigators doubted their skills or second guessed evidence that could have been the game changer.

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.
The two types of criminal behaviors are justifiable homicide and excusable homicides (Schmalleger, 2002). Justifiable manslaughter incorporates the execution of a sentenced guilty party by a court arrange or the killing of an opponent by a military in the line of obligation. An excusable homicide, as a rule, includes the unintentional or non-careless killing of another person. This implies there is no proof to demonstrate the convict had aimed to kill the victim. So there is no confirmation of wrongful or imprudence with respect to the individual that is sentenced (Schmalleger, 2002). Be that as it may, criminal crime is legitimately isolated from two types of murder and manslaughter. All things considered, there are two contemplations that
When it comes to paranoia, the human brain is great at creating stories that heighten what we fear, have experienced, and will experience. We like to scare ourselves, bend the truth, create a monster out of truth. That is the same case with what is being told in The Killer in the Backseat stories. What may have one time been true and a common occurrence has been glorified into something much darker that now subconsciously forces people to often check their back seats anywhere they stop, just in case. This story is also known as High Beams due to some important points in the stories that can help ease some of the character's anxiety about their life being in danger.
The Virginia Tech shooting was also one of the worst historical events in history that made me see things differently. On April 16, 2007, a shooting was occurred that not only changed the lives of the students, but also changed the way I see life. The reason was because one student had a mental problem which lead him to killing and hurting a lot of students. Mourning the losses of teachers, friends, and students, Virginia Tech is now forever changed, says one veterinary school spokesperson (Schultz, par. 2). It saddens me that a person would do this just to be famous or to cause physical and mental pain on innocent people.
When people hear the word “forensics” it evokes a mindful of graphic, vibrant images that bring about death and crime. It’s a trigger word that reminds people of gore, autopsies, DNA, death investigations, and bullet holes. This word means so much more than just those few examples of what forensics hold. Forensics is such a broad term- it is “scientific tests or techniques used in connection with the detection of a crime”, so with that given definition forensics could mean many different things. You could go from someone who works as the forensic computer technician who can hack into a sexual predator’s hard drive in the matter of seconds to a forensic anthropologist who studies bones in a legal case. All though there

As Americans we love our cars, trucks, SUVs, and motorbikes for many different reasons. One major reason is that they are an easy and convenient mobility; a personal mode of transportation. It is rather hard to imagine what this county would be like without all the roads and vehicles on them. This is abundantly evident in Arizona, where the majority of us drive to most all of our activities from going to work or taking the kids for an ice cream. We jump into our vehicle and go. However, a curious thing often happens when we get in our car, truck and SUVs. We sometimes change turning into someone different when behind the wheel of our vehicle. We can become inconsiderate and aggressive to other drivers; at times even becoming rude, crude,
