    The Course and Nature of Stalking: A Victim Perspective
    Wiley ; 2001
    In:  The Howard Journal of Criminal Justice Vol. 40, No. 3 ( 2001-08), p. 215-234

    Abstract: This article presents results from the first survey of stalking victims to be conducted in the United Kingdom. In‐depth questionnaire data are drawn on to investigate the course and nature of prolonged stalking in 95 self‐defined victims. Findings indicate a pattern of repeated intrusions, a high violence risk for both victims and their loved ones, a dearth of sources of support, and varied police response. Stalkers had higher socio‐economic status than most other criminals, were ex‐partners of the victim in under half of cases, and did not necessarily operate alone.

    Kumho , Daubert , and the Nature of Scientific Inquiry: Implications for Forensic Anthropology*

    Abstract: Abstract:  In the last 15 years, the US Supreme Court has implemented major changes concerning the admittance of expert testimony. In 1993, Daubert v. Merrell Dow Pharmaceuticals superseded the Frye ruling in federal courts and established judges, not the scientific community, as the gatekeepers regarding the credibility of scientific evidence. In 1999, a lesser‐known but equally important decision, Kumho Tire v. Carmichael , ruled that technical expert testimony needed to employ the same rigor as outlined in Daubert , but experts can develop theories based on observations and apply such theories to the case before the court. Anthropology has never been defined as a hard science. Yet, many recent publications have modified existing techniques to meet the Daubert criteria, while none have discussed the significance of Kumho to anthropological testimony. This paper examines the impact of Daubert and Kumho on forensic anthropology and illustrates areas of anthropological testimony best admitted under Kumho’s guidance.

    Preliminary Analysis of the Nature and Processing of Palm Marks by a U.K. Fingerprint Bureau

    Abstract: The nature of crime scene palmar images ( CSPI ) or factors affecting search parameters using a palm‐enabled AFIS system have not been investigated. A questionnaire‐based survey, undertaken by U.K. fingerprint experts utilizing the U.K.'s IDENT ‐1 system during the period January to J uly 2010, of CSPI marks has been conducted to provide descriptive statistical data on the nature of CSPI and some aspects of the ACE ‐V process. 45 scene‐recovered marks were analyzed for part of the CSPI recovered, friction ridge detail, and process times. U.K. population handedness was different from recovered CSPI . Most and least frequently recovered regions were hypothenar pad B and the central pad, respectively. There was a nonsignificant association between palm region and number of palm regions recovered, as well as identification rate and analysis times and characteristics. The number of CSPI regions was significantly related to time for analysis, identification, and comparison.

    A Forensic Case Study of a Naturally Mummified Brain from the Bushveld of South Africa

    Abstract: ABSTRACT: The present study reports our observations of a naturally mummified human brain found in the bushveld of South Africa. This case extends the geographic and climatic ranges in which mummified brains have been found, and it represents an additional case where no human activity has led to the mummification. The mummified brain was c . one fifth the size of a normal human brain, while the gyral and sulcal patterns of a typical human brain were clear. CT scanning of the brain revealed that subcortical structures, normally evident in this type of imaging, were not discernable, indicating a slow mummification process. Histological examination of the tissue revealed near complete degradation of the microanatomical structure, with only putative Nissl bodies remaining as identifiable neural microstructures. The specimen appears to have survived several veld fires, as well as a high annual rainfall, and a high relative humidity. It is thought that specific conditions amenable to brain mummification, but not other soft tissues, occurred in the skull of this specimen in the weeks postmortem.

    The Probation Officer at Court: Some Further Thoughts

    Abstract: In his recent article in the Howard Journal , McWilliams examined the proposition that the relationship between probation officers and courts has deteriorated as a result of a growing gulf between a virtually unchanging bench and a much changed justices' clerk and probation service. There have however been substantial and significant changes in the nature of the bench and its work which, it is suggested, have had a fundamental effect upon the growing belief in this proposition. When these changes are considered with alternative interpretations of the changes in the probation service, the possibility of alternatives to McWilliams's tentative solutions emerges.
