DATABASES "Electronic Recording of Custodial Interrogations: Everybody Wins" This document, compiled by the AELE Law Enforcement Legal Center for the IACP 2006 Conference, describes the benefits relating to electronically recording custodial interrogation proceedings. According to Alan Harris, a veteran prosecutor in Minnesota, it was "the best thing we've ever had rammed down our throats." He was referring to a practice that the Minnesota Supreme Court imposed on the state's police officers more than a decade ago -- the electronic recording of custodial interrogations in felony investigations from the time that the Miranda warnings are given until the end of the interviews. Further reading on this article is located in the Core Database under document #587763. "Property and Evidence Control" This policy is taken from the Whitehall Township, Pennsylvania, Bureau of Police. It is the policy of the Whitehall Township Bureau of Police to ensure evidence and/or recovered property in custody is properly secured, stored, and readily retrievable. Additionally, any changes in the custody of the evidence and/or recovered property are properly and fully documented. The full text of this policy is located in the Policies database under document #587741. NETWORKING Quest-Response Service We've heard from several members that the reason they respond to Quests is others are more apt to respond to their questions, equating it to a penny jar -- take a penny, leave a penny. Or in this case, leave a Response, get a Response. Taking a moment of your time to help someone now could benefit you in the future. Next time you're on IACP Net, please assist your peers by responding to their Quests and sharing your knowledge. CURRENT AFFAIRS TRACView Traffic Accident Solutions DOCVIEW, LLC is pleased to announce grant funding for TRACView traffic accident solutions into 2007.
