“Forensic psychologists are employed in a variety of settings including state forensic hospitals, court clinics, mental health centers, jails, prisons, and juvenile treatment centers. Forensic psychologists can also work independently in private practice, and some are employed primarily as researchers in university or mental health settings” Bottoms et al. (2004). As a result of the diverse nature and flexibility of Forensic psychology these individuals are situated in a large number of organizations

The research for this paper revealed several articles containing proposed frameworks that combine the approaches outlined above in the effort of offering the greatest analysis efficiency alongside data privacy protection. This section focuses on outlining the proposed frameworks, the positive aspects, and any known challenges. Gupta (2013) approaches privacy protection during the forensic investigation process by proposing a framework based on the logic that criminal behavior and evidence remains

Forensic science is most simply defined as the science that is applied to the law. Criminal cases many times call for the examination of evidence that can tie a suspect or victim to a crime scene or to one another.

Here we will focus our attention to the latter, as it applies to the field of forensic science referred to forensic odontology or forensic dentistry. Forensic odontology is

The practice of identification is a very old technique in the forensic sciences. This paper will examine the use and application of forensic facial reconstruction. Through topics such as its use in the identification process, discussion of soft tissue thickness, the subjectivity of practitioners, and the reliability and accuracy of these techniques, this paper will hopefully address many strengths and weaknesses found within the practice of forensic facial reconstruction.

Specifically in South Carolina, there were slave patrols who hunted for slaves

Do Law Enforcements practice Racial Profiling in Street-Level Crime in the country? This inquiry persists to be the main deliberation by the experts, and it is the question that convoys the research. In “The Reality of Racial Profiling”, The Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights shows absolute statistical report evidences from Department of Labor’s Bureau of Justice that proves the existence of Racial Profiling on the country’s highways. The year 2005 data resulted that Black and Hispanic
