The woman would most likely be charged with "Possession of a controlled substance." In this scenario, admitting to buying marijuana directly implies possession, which is a chargeable offense under the laws of many jurisdictions. The specifics of the charge can vary based on the amount of marijuana in her possession and local or state laws regarding marijuana use and possession. "Attempted Trafficking in Drugs" generally requires intent to distribute, sell, or traffic the drug, which is not indicated by her admission of purchase for presumably personal use. "Drug Paraphernalia" refers to items used to consume, produce, or distribute drugs, and without specific mention of such items, this charge may not apply based solely on her admission of buying marijuana.

Methamphetamine production often involves the use of various chemicals and substances that can separate into different layers. These layers can consist of both liquids and solids, indicating the presence of a meth-making process. This could be due to the separation of different chemicals used in the production or the formation of by-products during the manufacturing process. Therefore, containers with layers of both liquids and solids can suggest the involvement of methamphetamine production.

Submit
76. What would cause a inventory of a vehicle to be illegal?

Explanation

Using a vehicle inventory for investigative purposes can cause it to be illegal. When conducting an inventory, the purpose should be limited to protecting the owner's property and ensuring officer safety. Using it for investigative purposes, such as searching for evidence or gathering information, goes beyond the scope of a lawful inventory. It violates the Fourth Amendment rights against unreasonable searches and seizures, as it lacks the required probable cause or a warrant. Thus, using a vehicle inventory for investigative purposes is not legally justified.

This approach recognizes that young offenders may require guidance, rehabilitation, and support to prevent further delinquency and promote their successful reintegration into society.

An officer can use the rationale from Terry to detain a person based on reasonable articulable suspicion. This means that the officer must have specific and objective facts that lead them to believe that the person is engaged in criminal activity. This standard is lower than probable cause but higher than mere suspicion. It allows officers to briefly detain and investigate a person if they have reasonable grounds to suspect that the person is involved in criminal activity, even if they do not have enough evidence to establish probable cause.

Submit
97. Which is NOT an action an officer can take at a crime scene to prevent cross-contamination?

Explanation

Using one set of gloves for each type of evidence is NOT an action an officer can take at a crime scene to prevent cross-contamination. This is because using separate gloves for each type of evidence can actually increase the risk of cross-contamination. Instead, it is important to change gloves between handling different pieces of evidence to minimize the transfer of any potential contaminants. The other options listed, such as putting each piece of evidence inside its own bag, using sterilized equipment, and not talking over the evidence, are all valid actions that can help prevent cross-contamination at a crime scene.

The correct answer is No, because they were not immediately recognized as contraband. In order for the evidence to be considered legally obtained, it must be immediately recognized as illegal or contraband. In this case, the TVs were only discovered to be stolen after they were turned around and the serial numbers were checked.

Crime scene photography usually focuses on close-up shots of evidence, mid-range shots to establish the context, and 4-cornered approach shots to capture all angles of the evidence.

Explanation

The correct answer is "No because the charity is not hosting the event."
