Week 6: Week Six – Individual Work
Analyze the legal differences between private investigators and public law enforcement.
Consider the reading assignment on interviews and interrogation from Chapter 5 of your textbook. When conducting an interview or interrogation, why are private investigators held to a higher standard, and subject to more legal ramifications than are police?
Write a 2-3-page paper (300-400 words) summarizing the differences in the guidelines for private investigators and police in interviewing and interrogation. Research any case laws that apply in these matters.
