Confidential Informant Law Enforcement's Most Valuable Tool

Confidential Informant Law Enforcement's Most Valuable Tool

He baffled and eluded law enforcement officers for nearly two decades. In the end however it wasn't the painstaking forensic analysis of hundreds of pieces of crime scene evidence that led to the capture of the Unabomber-but the lucky tip of an informant. Truth of the matter is for all their sophistication and hi-tech science crime-fighting techniques such as fingerprint and DNA analysis are a factor in less than one percent of all criminal cases. In the overwhelming number of crimes informants have provided the necessary ammunition needed to bring criminals to justice from Genovese to Gotti and Capone to Dillinger. Confidential Informant: Understanding Law Enforcement's Most Valuable Tool explores the covert and clandestine world of informants-revealing the secrets of how to find them and make the most out of them while at the same time avoiding the pitfalls of dealing with them. Using case studies in which informants played key roles in solving crimes the book examines all aspects of informant development and management from the motivation of the informant to the legal problems that accompany the use of informants in criminal cases. Written by John Madinger a former narcotics agent supervisor and administrator and currently a Senior Special Agent with the Criminal Investigation Division of the Internal Revenue Service Confidential Informant: Understanding Law Enforcement's Most Valuable Tool examines the emotional and behavioral characteristics of the informant as well as the psychology of trust and betrayal. The book also illustrates techniques for improving interviewing and communication skills when dealing with informants and provides invaluable forms that can be used in connection with these vital sources of information. | Confidential Informant Law Enforcement's Most Valuable Tool

Regional Innovation Potential: The Case of the U.S. Machine Tool Industry

Regional Innovation Potential: The Case of the U.S. Machine Tool Industry

This title was first published in 2000: Steven Nivin analyzes a process vital to economic development - technological change. He furthers understanding of the processes driving innovation so that we may gain a deeper insight into the development of economies. Specifically the study explores the concept of innovation potential and the factors that result in variations in innovation potential across metropolitan areas using the US machine tool industry as a case study. To provide a comparison the same models are also estimated for the semiconductor industry. The findings indicate that urbanisation economies localization economies human capital universities and invention-derived knowledge are significant factors. The study assesses the contributions of three different skill levels of human capital; college-educated graduate degree and locally produced PhD’s in mechanical and electrical engineering. Only the graduate and PhD degree measures are found to be significant indicating the importance of having a highly skilled pool of labour within the region. The influences of the factors appear to be similar across industries with some slight differences. The transfer of knowledge through patents is also studied. It is found that the transmission of this knowledge is slower between different industries relative to the transmission within the same industry. | Regional Innovation Potential: The Case of the U.

Aid and Technical Cooperation as a Foreign Policy Tool for Emerging Donors The Case of Brazil

Aid and Technical Cooperation as a Foreign Policy Tool for Emerging Donors The Case of Brazil

The question of why countries give aid and assistance to other countries has long been a topic of debate- is it altruism or selfishness? The assumption is sometimes made that donors from developing countries might be more motivated by altruism than ‘traditional’ western donors. This book demonstrates that on the contrary the provision of development assistance can be used to serve national interests allowing so-called ‘emerging’ donors to gain soft power in the international sphere by improving their image and global influence. Technical cooperation or the transfer of knowledge is an area of particular interest as it can enable donors to position themselves as a global leader in a given field with a unique set of skills and expertise in a knowledge area. This book uses the Brazilian case to demonstrate how a country such as Brazil can seek power and influence by providing no-strings-attached technical assistance. The empirical analysis unpicks the motivations behind development assistance and how it can be used as a foreign policy tool. In doing so the book sheds light upon the similarities and variations in the provision of technical cooperation as a foreign policy tool by China India and Brazil. This book will be of interest to researchers of International Development South-South Cooperation International Relations and those working on Brazil specifically. | Aid and Technical Cooperation as a Foreign Policy Tool for Emerging Donors The Case of Brazil

German Anti-Nazi Espionage in the Second World War The OSS and the Men of the TOOL Missions

This book tells the dramatic story of the recruitment and training of a group of German communist exiles by the London office of the Office of Strategic Services for key spy missions into Nazi Germany during the final months of World War II. The book chronicles their stand against the rise of Hitler in 1930s that caused them to flee Germany for Czechoslovakia and then England where they resettled and awaited an opportunity to get back into the war against the Nazis. That chance would arrive in late 1944 when the OSS recruited them for these important missions which became part of the historic German Penetration Campaign. Some of the German exiles carried out successful missions that provided key military intelligence to the Allied armies advancing into Germany while others suffered untimely deaths immediately upon the dispatch of their missions that still raise troubling issues. And based on declassified East German government files this book also reveals that notwithstanding the US military alliance with the Soviet Union a few of the German communist exiles betrayed the trust that the OSS had placed in them by working with a secret spy network in England that enabled its agents to receive top secret mission related information and OSS sources and methods. That spy network was run by the GRU the Red Army military intelligence service. This is the same intelligence service that has just been cited by US law enforcement officers as having hacked into computers run by the Democratic National Committee and launched a social media campaign in order to influence the outcome of the 2016 U. S. presidential election. While the dual loyalties of the German exiles later became known to the United States military such knowledge did not prevent it from posthumously awarding military decorations to the men who led these missions. Until that day no German national had ever been presented with such medals for their service to the Allied armies in World War II. | German Anti-Nazi Espionage in the Second World War The OSS and the Men of the TOOL Missions
