JADM250 Police Report Writing
Week 4 Discussion
DQ1 INTERVIEWING
What are different types of interviews that police officers conduct? Is an interview with a victim or eyewitness to a crime the same as an interview with a suspect of a crime? Is a field interview of that suspect the same as an interview at police headquarters?
DQ2 REPORT WRITING SUPERVISION
Why is there a need for supervisors to review police reports? Should departmental policy dictate who is responsible for report writing review and approval? If errors or omissions are found, can changes be made to the original report that was submitted by the initial reporting officer?
