Assignment 2: Constitutional Amendments and Miranda

profileSHEIB0

As a law enforcement investigator, it is critical for you to know and understand the components and applications of the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendments to the US Constitution and the Miranda case. From the law enforcement officer assigned to patrol an area of his or her jurisdiction to the detective assigned to follow up on homicide cases, each needs to have skills to legally conduct investigations that are admissible in court and eligible for prosecution. It does not serve patrol officers or homicide detectives to develop criminal cases that are not prosecutable.

This assignment directs you to explore and discover the attributes and scope as well as specific legal components of each of the above-mentioned constitutional amendments.

Tasks:

Compose a 5- to 7-page report addressing both Part 1 and 2.
