Synopsis

Forensic science plays a crucial role in criminal investigations, enabling law enforcement to not only identify potential suspects but also determine when and how a crime occurred. The term 'forensic, ' indicating a connection to the legal system, underscores that forensic science applies scientific principles to legal matters. The scope of forensic science is broad, encompassing various fields such as DNA analysis, fingerprint analysis, autopsies, pathology, and toxicology. These disciplines collectively contribute to uncovering the cause of death and establishing possible links to the accused. This book deals with the primary ethical issues relevant to law enforcement command, human resources, and related accountability mechanisms. From a command perspective, police administration involves setting agency policy and making operational decisions that achieve the goals of law enforcement without violating the law or public trust. This includes understanding the law, adopting lawful and ethical departmental policies, enforcing those policies, and setting a professional example for subordinates to follow.
