, you are required to reply to 2 other classmates’ threads. Each reply must be a minimum of 100 words and must cite at least 2 academic sources. Acceptable sources include the textbook, peer-reviewed journal articles, government sources/websites, and professional association websites. In addition to academic support, students must apply a Chrisitian worldview perspective and integrate Biblical scripture support for all posts. Responding to a classmate’s post requires both the addition of new ideas and analysis. A particular point made by the classmate must be addressed and built upon by your analysis in order to move the conversation forward. Thus, the response post is a rigorous assignment that requires you to build upon initial posts to develop deeper and more thorough discussion of the ideas introduced in the initial posts. As such, reply posts that merely affirm, restate or unprofessionally quarrel with the previous post(s) and fail to make a valuable, substantive contribution to the discussion will receive appropriate point deductions. Thread one: Jennifer Lookabaugh Once a crime has been committed it is important that the officer first secures the crime scene. This allows for protections of the scene, keeping track of who is entering and leaving the premises, as well as preventing contamination of the scene.These methods prevent any further loss of important evidence that could be used to prove a person’s innocence or guilt. This also is a safety measure. By securing the crime scene this protects all in involved and all people that shouldn’t be involved. By setting up a barrier this enforces a protectant measure. When an officer is arriving on a “hot-call” the number one factor that should be considered is safety. Safety of the officers, safety of the victim, and safety of the suspect. Remembering that all human life is precious whether they have done good or bad. All human life is precious. Jeremiah 1:5 (King James Version), “Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.” It could be argued that the biggest factor to consider when arriving on the scene is safe. Safety should be considered as a person’s life is valuable and if they get hurt and die, you cannot replace their life. Therefore, when an officer is arriving on the scene, they must consider the safety of all involved. Safety of potential victims’ life, the safety of themselves and fellow officer, and the safety of the perpetrator. Thread two: Luke Arnold It is critical for officers to handle emergencies on a scene first because there could be people’s lives in danger. Although keeping evidence safe and uncontaminated is a very important aspect of arriving on a crime scene , protecting civilians and handling situations that could harm others later will always come first. When an officer is on a “hot” call, they should ready their sense because they are going into a particularly dangerous situation where quick thinking, decision making, and reflexes are required. The penalty of not being aware and ready can be harm to both others and the officers themselves, as well as death. Arriving on a “hot” scene is different from the rest of an officer’s day and must be treated as such due to the potential threats and unknown variables. An officer should try to get as much information from dispatch as possible and proceed knowing that their presence could make the offender flee or try to escape. This means an officer has to take into consideration whether they should implement lights and sirens. The biggest factor in any situation is to find out if a person is in danger of death and if danger is still present. If the victim is alright then the immediate emergency response should be to find a way to block in and arrest the offender. Ultimately, this decision is most likely left up to the specific police department codes. May Janne says that responses to emergency situations must not only be learned, they must be experienced (2016, p. 2). This statement is so important because it describes many of the situations in the police world. Often, an officer must have experience to help them make decisions about emergency situations. In addition, Cronin says that often, patrol officers can arrive at a crime scene with almost no witnesses and just a victim (2007, p. 218). This can be problematic because it leaves the officer with opportunity to make biased judgments and not have much information to go off or collect for further investigation. Job 12:22 says “He reveals the deep things of darkness and brings utter darkness into light” (NIV). This verse helps explain that although officers and investigators go into situations shrouded in darkness, God will always be by their side and will always be a light to the world and any situation.
