A research team worked with a large urban jurisdiction in the southeastern United States, conducted detective interviews, developed process maps, and estimated the work hours associated with various phases of homicide investigations. The investigative process was organized into separate stages and presented as process maps. The average time elapsed for the initial investigative stage was 72.0 hours, while time to complete the second stage was 10.3 days. Plea-bargained cases consumed 12 hours of lead investigator’s time; homicide trials required an additional 13.2 workdays. These workflow maps and workload estimates could be used to help determine staffing allocations in similar agencies.

This qualitative study explored New Zealand police, paramedic and mental health staff’s experiences of co-response (when these three agencies work together to respond to suicide/mental health-related crises) and how this compared to usual practice. Themes were identified from 24 in-depth interviews using thematic analysis. ‘ Dread, fear and failure’ encapsulated the reactions toward usual practice, characterized by fears of inadequate support, coercive measures, risk and poor outcomes. The ‘gamechanger’ co-response model provided police and paramedics with supportive and accessible mental health expertise. Participants felt safer and better able to provide person-and family-centered input. Continuation and extension of co-response models are recommended.

This study explores roadside collision risks among Canadian police officers, investigating concerns, contributing factors, training, and technology adoption. A survey of 59 officers on traffic-related assignments reveals that 19 officers experienced at least one real collision (30 real collisions in total), and all of them experienced at least one near-miss collision (136 near miss collisions in total) during their services. In 86% of all collisions, cars approached from behind. While 81% of officers received minimal collision prevention training, 87% acknowledged the benefits of a collision warning device, emphasizing the need for comprehensive training and technology implementation to enhance officer safety.

This review organises the literature on presenting evidence in police interviews for researchers and practitioners to capture the breadth of the topic, and it is organised around the question of why evidence is presented during an interview. The literature was also coded for what type of evidence is presented and with what technique, when evidence is presented, and how it is presented. We found no support for the notion that presenting evidence will overcome resistance and is likely to increase it, presenting evidence gradually and in a challenging manner is the most effective approach to credibility assessment and information disclosure.

Responsibility for responding to missing children belongs to multiple agencies, including police, children’s homes and social services, but evidence highlights issues with collaboration. The following scoping review seeks to identify what is currently known about mechanisms that enhance collaboration in responding to missing. Findings highlight the value of (i) information-sharing techniques; (ii) cross-agency technology; (iii) single points of contact; (iv) regular multi-agency meetings; (v) shared understanding of terminology; (vi) clarifying roles and responsibilities; and (vii) joint training. However, research is needed that empirically tests the effectiveness of strategies and interventions for improving inter-agency working in this risky and uncertain context.

The County Lines (CL) drug supply model is a rapidly increasing threat. Metropolitan Police Specialist Crime have developed a statistical formula, referred to as ‘Orochi impact formula’ for conservatively quantifying the quantity and monetary value of drugs sold per line. The novel formula, which uses known average daily consumption rates of Class A drug and customer demand telephony data, conservatively indicates deal line trade, systematically differentiating between deal lines to quantify the relative impact of each. This evidence-based approach has potential for supporting (i) prosecution of line holders, (ii) determining sentencing deterrents, and (iii) wider public information and knowledge exchange.
县线（CL）毒品供应模式是一种迅速增长的威胁。大都会警察局专业犯罪部门开发了一种统计公式，称为 "八歧大蛇影响公式"，用于保守地量化每条线路的毒品销售数量和货币价值。这个新颖的公式使用已知的 A 类毒品日均消费率和客户需求电话数据，保守地显示交易线路的交易情况，系统地区分不同的交易线路，以量化每条线路的相对影响。这种以证据为基础的方法具有支持以下工作的潜力：(i) 起诉交易线持有人；(ii) 确定量刑威慑；(iii) 更广泛的公共信息和知识交流。

Human source intelligence (HUMINT) practitioners are concerned with detecting informant deception, and previous research indicates that the verbal content of an informant’s narrative can be used to identify potential deceit. The current study extends previous research by analysing the narrative structure and narrative identity of accounts provided by 22 participants undertaking the role of a mock-informant. Results indicate that deception affects the structure of a mock-informant narrative, with deceptive mock-informants employing abstract introductions and evaluative remarks to withhold information and to distract their listeners with emotional content. Additionally, deceptive mock-informants are more likely to express a low potency narrative role, such as a victim or tragic hero. Furthermore, there is tentative evidence to suggest that an analysis of narrative identity can also provide an indication of varying levels of motivation and cooperation among truthful mock-informants. These findings have implications for HUMINT practitioners in the field and add to the wider body of deception detection research.
