1.I do think that changing technologies make it easier to determine who is responsible for a crime. If it werent for such technologies we wouldnt of been so sure as to who had comittied the crime. We can trace DNA, hair, blood, and shoeprints. We are able to see how they murdered or committed the crime step by step.
2.i believe that only some representation in the media are correct with the identification and anaylsis of some physical evidence. Yet alot of the shows that have higher ratings or are more popular show that forensic scientist are able to more than just lab and field work (ex. Dexter, CSI, NCIS, etc..) even to a point ti where they can hold guns and interview people. Also in some shows the time flies, like they can solve a case within two days or get results back in just minutes, when in reality it takes longer then that.

The first day Willie encounters one of the neighborhood’s crew at the gym and invites them to a game of basketball. He gets beat up when he gets too close. He was also wearing police gear.

    The CSI Effect

    “The CSI Effect is a recent phenomenon that can be attributed to the influence of mass media. The term started appearing in legal lexicon in 2003; roughly 3 years after the show and its spin-offs became wildly popular options for the American public” (Heinrick 59). This so called “CSI Effect”, is creating major controversy in the courtroom. There is such a large different between what the media depicts and real forensic science that jurors now believe that they are more educated than prosecutors themselves. It is becoming extremely important that attorneys, judges, and anyone else involved in a case to be aware that jurors are expecting great things in regards to forensic evidence. If the “CSI Effect” is ignored within the courtroom, there is no telling what will happen. The guilty may be let free or the innocent could be wrongfully accused of something they didn’t do. In addition to the “CSI Effect”, another similar effect that has been formed because of CSI-type shows is the “Tech Effect”. The “Tech Effect” is very similar to the “CSI Effect” and is defined as a mentality in which jurors “hold higher expectations for forensic evidence because of the actual development in forensic technology” (Cole & Dioso-Villa 1345). Both the “CSI Effect” and the “Tech Effect” affirm that reality crime shows are changing the minds of its viewers, while some forensic accomplishments have been…

    The three changes expected in the field of criminal justice that I chose is the DNA profiling and finger print technology, homeland security and cybercrime. The next 50 years improvements in these fields will ensure a substantial improvement in criminal justice. Each of the changes expected are in some way related to technology. The weaknesses in these fields have been the cause of great distress to the victims.…
