The Crime Bill of 1994 has generated a large cash flow of federal funds into state and local coffers for hiring additional personnel. In the rush to get the federal funding, many agencies have altered their hiring practices for police personnel in order to meet deadlines and quotas. Agencies have experienced a vast array of libelous situations, occupational problems, non-productive employees, and worst of all, bad cops charged with criminal activities when pre-employment screening practices have been shortcut. This article examines what can happen when hiring practices are accelerated and thorough background investigations condensed or eliminated. The article presents three elements of a quality background investigation and five policy development guidelines for producing a background investigation manual and procedure. The article also presents a sample Background Investigation Manual and Procedure and related forms developed by the author for use in his agency utilizing the concepts and principles presented.

Since 2000 until 2016, the Internet has expanded at an average rate of 918,3% globally; currently, around 4 billion people are online. Cyberspace today is one of the greatest legal challenges which have stimulated another form of crime, creating an environment for new methods of crime. Now, almost all crimes can be committed with the use of computers. This paper analyzes the procedures of cybercrime investigation according to the Albanian legislation such as handling of electronic evidence and the methods and tools of investigation. The paper deals also with the issues of cooperation with Internet Service Providers (ISP) and regional and international cooperation in the fight against cybercrime. Finally, the paper analyzes the work and progress of the new Cybercrime Investigation Units. This includes some interviews with cybercrime investigation agents providing information on the process of investigation of these crimes in Albania and the challenges faced by them.

Draws on the views & methods of the fictional French police inspector Jules Maigret, created by Georges Simenon, to understand the popular consciousness of law. A constitutive approach is used to examine the contradictions of Simenon's books: his sociological approach, which emphasizes the opposition between law & justice; his empirical method; & his doubt of the possibility of absolute truth. It is argued that Maigret's justice emerges from the context of social structures, rather than being created through formal procedures. It is concluded that the character is an agent of sociologically informed justice, rather than simply the premier agent of the French Police Judicature. 29 References. D. Schwartz
