Batterer intervention programs were introduced as a way to hold batterers accountable without incarcerating them. Initial studies suggested that the programs reduced battering. Two evaluations of programs in Broward County, Florida, and Brooklyn, New York, based on more rigorous experimental designs, claim that they have little or no effect.

The Computer Forensics Tool Testing (CFTT) project is the joint effort of the National Institute of Justice, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), as well as, the Department of Defense, the Technical Support Working Group, and other related agencies. The objective of the CFTT project is to provide measurable assurance to practitioners, researchers, and other applicable users that the tools used in computer forensics investigations provide accurate results. Accomplishing this requires first, the development of specifications and test methods for computer forensics tools,...

Developments in the world have shown how simple it is to acquire all sorts of information through the use of computers. This information can be used for a variety of endeavors, and criminal activity is a major one. In an effort to fight this new crime wave, law enforcement agencies, financial institutions, and investment firms are incorporating computer forensics into their infrastructure. From network security breaches to child pornography investigations, the common bridge is the demonstration that the particular electronic media contained the incriminating evidence. Supportive examination...

Most government agencies concerned with public safety have disaster plans. Although some are linked to other agencies' plans, others are not. In the event of mass fatalities, the local medical examiner or coroner should already have in place a plan to identify the victims properly. The purpose of this guide is to help the medical examiner or coroner prepare that portion of a disaster plan concerned with victim identification.

The annual National Conference on Science and the Law brings scientists, attorneys, and academicians together to examine issues that arise at the intersection of the scientific and legal professions. The two professions take distinctly different approaches and do not speak each other's "language." The need for them to communicate better becomes more imperative with further advances in science and technology.
