Course Description
Each year over half a million robberies are reported
to police in the United States. The successful investigation
of this pervasive crime involves an understanding of
the elements of the crime, the dynamics of the offense,
and the characteristics of the offender. It is also
critical that investigators formulate and utilize techniques
and strategies to obtain vital information from victims,
witnesses, and suspects while developing a successful
case.
Designed to meet the specific needs of the investigator,
this course addresses the broad spectrum of robbery,
from commercial stores and banks, to street muggings,
residential invasions, and the "shakedowns"
of youth and adults. The learning opportunities involve
the students in examining active cases, analyzing the
elements and the evidence, and developing patterns that
emerge during a robbery investigation.
At the conclusion of the course the student will be
able to:
- Explain robbery law
- Recognize crime patterns
