Criminal investigation is a dynamic endeavor impacted by changes in
human nature, statutory and constitutional laws, and methods of
operation. New challenges are constantly posed for the investigator
and the investigation of drug offenses is no exception. It takes
advanced skills to keep pace with the criminal mind. Unfortunately,
the skills acquired in basic police training are just that: basic.
In order to stay ahead of their criminal counterparts, drug
enforcement officers must seek extensive, ongoing training and
knowledge, not just to secure a lawful conviction but to keep
themselves and the public safe. This new edition of the bestselling
Practical Drug Enforcement provides a thoroughly revised and
updated guide to the contemporary aspects of covert criminal
investigations and the management of the drug enforcement unit
itself. Appealing to a wide variety of law enforcement officers in
all jurisdictions, it addresses different methods of detection,
investigation, surveillance, and capture of drug traffickers as
well as identifies those methods commonly employed by criminals to
avoid detection. Drawing from the author's expertise in the field,
and as a nationally recognized consultant, this book contains
practical hands-on information for the officer in the street and
the administrator coordinating operations. This edition includes
new drug identification photos, charts, and updated statistics, as
well as an entirely new chapter on the surreptitious monitoring of
suspects, entrapment, and "possession with intent" cases. New
topics include- Drug courier profiling High-tech surveillance,
including GPS and thermal imaging Raid procedures for clandestine
labs Drug diversion by physicians and pharmacies Searching,
seizing, and handling drug evidence Reverse sting operations
Undercover work, risks, and stress Informant management Designed as
an investigative resource on current drug enforcement techniques,
Practical Drug Enforcement, Third Edition allows law enforcement
personnel from a variety of jurisdictions and priorities to
maintain concurrent initiatives regarding the identification,
apprehension, and prosecution of all known drug offenders and drug
traffickers at local and national levels.
