Final Diagnosis......

Introduction
In the bog below I hope to shed light on what this wonderful class has given me. I want to be able to properly and completely explain how this class has helped me better myself in my writing areas that I struggle in, while also allowing me to grow further through certain assignments and activities. These activities ranged from a documentary project to a weekly blog to book work and then to mock trials. These all had their strengths and weaknesses, but were helpful all in their own way and that is what matters. In the blog below I will elaborate further on my semester in Writing in the Disciplines.

How has this class been helpful to me? This class has been helpful for a number of reasons and has greatly impacted my overall learning. The ways I think this class was useful was that it helped me identify my issue with procrastination, it helped me re-learn how to approach writing assignments that require me to write more concisely, and then how papers can change entirely when verb tense is changed. These changes were especially helpful and I am happy to identify them as what the class did to improve my writing process because they are necessary to create good writing and, specifically to the class, a good report. I have written numerous papers at different levels for my entire life and each time I advanced a grade level I found new ways to make myself a better writer, but have always struggled in three particular areas, which included procrastination, writing concisely, and knowing when to change verb tense and how to properly use it. I normally tend to hold of on doing the assignments I need to do and then when I sit down to do it I have little time to finish it and tend to rush sometimes. I usually still create great work, but the stress and time crunch that accompanies procrastination is not worth it. As I was doing the documentary project procrastination was a common issue and affected my first couple drafts, especially my first one, due to the fact that I was stressed and rushing to finish it efficiently and completely. Now, another issue I have always had is writing concisely and this is a part of the procrastination issue that I have. I am rushed when I procrastinate and so do not focus on my writing and end up repeating myself and writing with details that are not necessary. This was apparent in my documentary project as well in my first draft. My first draft was very very long and had many details that were not important to telling the main story line and I could not fix this until I recognized the issue. So, once the issue was brought to my attention I was able to condense my documentary project to its proper mandated length in later drafts. Finally, verb tense was not something I normally acknowledged in my writing, but after learning the importance of it in my documentary project and in police reports I was writing through book activities I was able to see how important it actually is. For instance we have found that in a report you must write in past-tense because you are describing events that already happened, so present tense would not be appropriate and would not create a product that was desired. The above are things this class has allowed me to learn about myself and improve for the future.
What would I like to see done in class this semester still and in future classes? Now, in regard to what I think we should still do in the class, I think we should discuss how to be sure to properly organize and write correct grammar in my police reports. I feel like this will allow me to display myself as both more professional and respectable in my future law enforcement profession. Then, I would also like to do some reaction reports. To better explain what I mean by reaction reports. I would like to watch a traffic stop or D.U.I. incident in law enforcement by myself or in a group and then react to what I saw in the video with the notes I have and write a report. So, a class dedicated to this would have to be dedicated to watching the video for half of the time and then to writing the report for the other half. I think this would appropriately finish our class strong and allow us more experiences. The semester is ending quickly though so I think if anything these suggestions for what should be done still in this semester should be taken and possibly used in future classes. I think it would only enhance the overall experience of this class.

Now, what did I think we should have done more and less? Further, as far as what I think of the many things we did in class, I think that certain things we should have done more of and other things we should have done less. In regard to what we should do less, I feel that we should do less blogs related to the text, which we cover with the quizzes and the exercises in the book, and more related to current events in law enforcement or documents in law enforcement. Also, I feel that more class time would be very helpful. I feel that with the Friday blogs, where there is no class, and all of the canceled class that we had we had a lot less class time then I would have liked to have. This extra time could have allowed for us to do a reaction report, which I explained earlier, or even did more with mock interviews. Then, as far as what I want to do more of, I feel that the summary documentary project and the mock interviews were great. I think we spent a lot of time on our summary project and I think it was a good thing because it allowed us to be reintroduced to how to write concisely and how to get to the point like one should in a report. Then, I was disappointed we didn't do more with the mock interviews because they were so fun. I think more time should be spent on them and possibly a class project or competition should be created in the future to do more with it. Then, I think we should have a blog or a written assignment related to this , so that we can really get into it. Now, on top of having more future classes revolving around the documentary project and the mock interviews, I also think that more guest speakers would be very beneficial to the class as well. We have not had any in the class this semester and that was really disappointing. I think a police officer, a lawyer, or even an investigator would give us very helpful information in regard to what a future profession in law enforcement is all about and then specifically what reports need to look like and have within them.
Thoughts on rhetorical knowledge and critical thinking skills gained in class: I think during this semester I have done very well in allowing myself to grasp the information necessary to properly gain theses two critical skills as the class had intended. The documentary project forced me to think critically in order to defeat my writing problem associated with an inability to write concisely enough at the beginning of a draft. I was able to learn how to write concisely and to the point, which I need to do when I write reports in the future. The mock interviews, the blogs, and the book exercises also allowed me to think critically because they forced me to apply what I was learning on paper and in practice with the interviews. I was able to gain practice here from writing reports to blogging about current events and reactions to my evolution as a writer and then from reaction based activities in the mock interviews where I can learn on my feet how something like this goes. Now, in regard to rhetorical skills that I have gained, these assignments and exercises have built up my rhetorical skills as a whole by building my logos, pathos, and ethos on the subject of writing reports and other documents in law enforcement. The logic I have gained through my experience allows me to feel more comfortable in completing reports and other things associated with them. Then, my ethos, or credibility, has also been heightened due to my experience in the class as well. I know how to write reports to a better degree through more concise writing, gained through the documentary project, and by obtaining the knowledge to complete the necessary steps to complete a report through exercises and practice inside and outside of class. Finally, my ethos, or my emotion, was tested by learning that I must keep my emotion and opinion out of my reports because they do not belong there. Only fact belongs in my reports. So, all in all, I think through my experiences in the class this year I have advanced further with these two critical skills that our professor wanted us to learn.

Conclusion With the above being said, I think this class was great. I was able to learn about my writing weaknesses and then had experiences that helped me correct them. Then, I was able to enjoy many projects and exercises that made the class both beneficial and enjoyable to me. Finally, I encountered things in class I also did not like as well and grew from them regardless. This speaks to what this class brings to the table.

Reaction to video

I recently watched a video that really gave me an interesting view of yet another situation in law enforcement that you cannot predict. I watched the video in the non-fiction section that had to do with a police officer pulling over a van for speeding. The events that followed left me with both positive and negative feelings for both parties involved. I will elaborate on this below.

Image Source

The video I watched started off with a singular police officer pulling over a van that had a mother and her kids inside. The officer approached the vehicle, informed her of what is going on, and then went back to his car to begin the next part of the traffic stop. The van then drove away though and the officer then pulled them over again. He was not happy and attempted to immediately remove the mother, the driver from the vehicle, but she resisted. He eventually got her to walk to the back of the car, but she would not cooperate. Her son, only a teenager, then exited the vehicle to hep his mother and actually physically engaged the officer. The officer threatened him with a taser and he retreated back into the car. The family was back in the car when backup arrived. They ordered them out, but they drove away again. One officer then opened fire on the vehicle that had children in it. A chase then occurred until the mother gave up. The mother and son were both arrested and charged.

Now, with the above said, this video has a lot going on in it. In regards to the women herself, I think she acted completely out of line. The way she acted toward the police even gave her son the wrong impression, which related to the point that it is okay to not listen and fight against the police. So, now her son was arrested with her. That is ridiculous. I thought the officer's actions were fine, which included the window when they would not open the door, threatening the women's son with a taser, and removing the mother from the car for driving away from him. The only thing I thought the police did wrong here was that one of the officers shot at the van, which contained defenseless children. That officer should know that this can not happen because it puts the children in harms way due to the hazardous decisions made by others.

So, all in all, this very short video had a lot going on in it and a lot can be said about. I feel that law enforcement did some good things and some bad things in a situation that went from simple to crazy very quickly.

Chapter 8: Exercises 3 and 4

The purpose of my blog today is to complete the exercises we were instructed to do from chapter 8 of our textbook. In the blog below I will complete this and in the end an example of a warrant will be produced.

Exercise 3: The first exercise required us to write an introduction for our warrant and affidavit. Exercise 4 also asks us to use this when constructing our search warrant.

I am currently a member of the California Bureau of Investigations and have enjoyed employment there for the last ten years. For the past ten years I have been responsible for any and all criminal activity in the El Fuego area. This can range from gang activity investigation to domestic issues and even other criminal acts like illegal forms of betting. I am a graduate of Lewis University with a Bachelor degree in Psychology and a Bachelor degree in Criminal Justice, where I received the schooling necessary to understand criminals, what is expected of me, and the law in order to appropriately act when the situation calls for me to. After this I was a graduate of the El Fuego Police Academy where I was schooled even more thoroughly into what it took to be a policeman from traffic stops to rapid deployment situations and beyond. I immediately joined the El Fuego police department for five years and then applied for the California Bureau of Investigations and became an investigator. I am responsible for over 200 arrests in my five years with the El Fuego police department and then more than 300 or so successful investigations while with the California Bureau of Investigations. These investigations included illegal betting, gang activity, and drug trafficking for the most part.

Exercise 4: The following will be a complete search warrant with the above introduction.

Francis Parker  , NIGHT SEARCH APPROVED: YES( )   NO( )

Judge of the Superior Court,             El Fuego              Judicial District

STATEMENT OF PROBABLE CAUSE:

I, John Trendl, am currently a member of the California Bureau of Investigations and have enjoyed employment there for the last ten years. For the past ten years I have been responsible for any and all criminal activity in the El Fuego area. This can range from gang activity investigation to domestic issues and even other criminal acts like illegal forms of betting. I am a graduate of Lewis University with a Bachelor degree in Psychology and a Bachelor degree in Criminal Justice, where I received the schooling necessary to understand criminals, what is expected of me, and the law in order to appropriately act when the situation calls for me to. After this I was a graduate of the El Fuego Police Academy where I was schooled even more thoroughly into what it took to be a policeman from traffic stops to rapid deployment situations and beyond. I immediately joined the El Fuego Police Department for five years and then applied for the California Bureau of Investigations and became an investigator. I am responsible for over 200 arrests in my five years with the El Fuego Police Department and then more than 300 or so successful investigations while with the California Bureau of Investigations. These investigations included illegal betting, gang activity, and drug trafficking for the most part.

On April 7th, 2016 at approximately 2324 hours I resumed my assignment that included investigating any and all criminal violations that occurred at the Do Drop In Bar, 1631 Lager Road, El Fuego. I was undercover there when I witnessed one of the regulars, Billy Biglunch, talking with the owner, Steven Sober, about betting on horses.

Suddenly, I overheard Biglunch tell Sober that he had insider information that stated that a horse named I'm Not Glue was in good position to win the fifth race.  Sober responded that he wanted to be one hundred dollars on the horse to win.

Later, after Sober and Biglunch finished talking, Sober approached the phone on the wall at the east end of the bar. I could see him easily as I was sitting only about three feet from him. I saw him dial the number 1-213-555-9361 and bet one hundred dollars on I'm Not Glue to win the race. He told Biglunch he had done so with his bookie and that they were set.

I then proceeded to leave the bar and returned to my office. I found that the service for the phone number 1-213-555-9361 is given by Pacific Telephone Company, 1010 N. Wilshire Blvd., Room #621, Los Angeles, California. The number was also non-published.

Based on my experience at the bar, the skills I have acquired over the years, and information from the affidavit I believe that there is evidence of illegal betting at the Pacific Telephone Company business residence and in Sober's bar where I believe evidence of this illegal bet could exist and other bets of this kind could have also occurred. So, I am seeking approval to search these places.

My thoughts on our mock interviews

In class on Friday we were able to experience some excellent examples in regard to how interviews can be conducted and were able to see what methods worked and what strategies were used. The fact that different strategies and methods were used made the interviews even better overall. This is due to the fact that we were able to see how one could approach an interview in different ways. Not everything about them were perfect though as nothing is. So, in the post below I will elaborate on the two interviews further.

I was involved in the first interview with my fellow classmate Nick as interviewees and I think we did a good job. We were able to take strategy and apply it to our interview, which we initiated with a two interviewer dynamic that I thought would be effective in throwing off our suspect. Our group, including Victoria and Rubi, created a great least of questions that was intended to build up our conversation and create an avenue for our suspect to follow, so that we could get the answers we were looking for. We tried to break the ice in the beginning and introduced ourselves and asked our suspect if she had ever been interviewed before. We did this because we wanted to build a little bit of rapport with her, so that once we began to ask her the questions that were crucial to our investigation she would be able to trust us when answering. Following this, we asked the questions necessary for our investigation and built up our questioning so that when we preformed our secret strategy it would be useful. This strategy is one that was mentioned in one of the readings we have on our blog space and it refers to how investigators attempted to elicit answers they wanted during a interview and or interrogation. Once our above method came together I think we did a good job at getting our suspect to say the things we wanted and preform the interview the way we wanted to. A thing we could improve on is the fact that we need to be looking for the truth and not just a confession, which may have not occurred in our interview if it was real. So, I thought our performance was good for the above reasons.

Moving on, there was one more interview done following ours and it was done by Kayley. She interviewed her suspect by herself with the questions her group had prepared. I thought she did a great job at building rapport when she asked for her suspects name and how she became manager and so on. I also thought she did a good job at asking more and more aggressive and fact based questions as the interview went. She also did well at restating answers so that she is documenting what they are saying  and that they know she is hearing what they are saying. So, she does this for both herself and her suspect. I thought the only issue with her interview was that I felt that she was getting a little bit to aggressive and loud at times when asking her questions. I think this could hurt the rapport you have already established with your suspect that you are interviewing. All in all, I thought this interview was done very well.

Further, I think this experience will be helpful in my future job. I think this because it has allowed me to have the experience of conducting an interview and then allowed me to practice using strategies to help my interview be successful. I think this experience will help me be more educated in regards to what you should look for and then what you can do to make your interview successful. 

To conclude, this experience was great and I think that future classes should do these mock interviews because they were fun and something I found useful for my future professional life. 

Thoughts regarding chapter 6 in the textbook

While reading chapter six in the textbook, Just the Facts: Investigative Report Writing, a couple of key concepts came up that I would like to explore further. These include the mentioning of the limiting of unsupported opinion after it explains the importance of writing a report to the proper length that the facts of the case creates, explaining why the five senses are something that anyone would be thinking about when doing a report, and then what the pros and cons are of the fill-in-the-blanks and report formats. These three things are interesting, but inhibit my full understanding of report writing. In order to be properly prepared to a write a report I would like to discuss these things further.I will briefly discuss why below.

I do not like that the limiting of unsupported opinion is mentioned in here. In what I have experienced in regard to report writing I have been told to leave opinion out of it. This includes all things opinion related. The report is to be fact based and last as long, as I mentioned above that the book touches on, as the facts of a case may warrant. Further, I do not think the mentioning of the five senses is needed in this chapter. An investigator and police officers together know that they must take in the entirety of a scene in order to fully understand what it entailed and then allow oneself to document it in a report effectively. I do not think people need to be reminded to use their sight or their smell, among the other senses, to describe a scene. I think they already know perfectly well that these will be required. Finally, I think it would be helpful to discuss what everyone likes and dislikes about the different report formats. I think it would allow us to understand them better and then allow for us to be prepared to write each one to the fullest extent.

To conclude, I enjoyed chapter 6 and I think it was beneficial to learning about the report writing aspect of law enforcement  to a fuller extent in the form of arrest reports.

The impact of ones appearance

After reading A Black Man Wore Different Kinds Of Clothing To See If People Treated Him Differently I have many different feelings and reactions about it. These feelings and reactions are in response to how the individual, Pedro, in the story felt when he changed his cloths and how different clothing choices affected others so strongly. With that being said, I will elaborate further in the paper below.

Image Source 

This article honestly made me sad and a little embarrassed as a human being. I mean after all we have been through in regard to our history must we still succumb to these stereotypical views and reactions? It seems as though we must with all of the evidence Pedro was able to gain on the subject as support for such a statement. The common theme for each of Pedro's days were simple. He would structure his days in two parts, which included dressing up first and then dressing down second. He would visit select places, in both attire, and compare the experiences. Pedro had favorable experiences when dressing up. but very negative ones when dressing down. These negatives I am referencing came in all sizes, but were all equally unacceptable in my opinion. Pedro would get extended greetings, more respect, less stereotypical action taken against him, and in fact experience equal and appropriate treatment when dressed up. In the same situations he would not get the door held open for him, be seated at the front of the restaurant, be given a break, right away, when coming up short with bus fair, or have the respectful and carefree conversations all people, despite appearances, should be able to have. The whole thing just upset me. I mean what are other factors that went in to this? I can be sure in saying anything, but race and dress seem to be the biggest factors. Are there other things? I am sure, but clearly the above mentioned are central and I think that is ridiculous. Pedro was just dressing comfortably in sweats and a sweatshirt most of the time. That does not make him a thug or criminal or something, but it seems our society has become blinded by expectations given to us by our media and outdated opinion. In my opinion it is awful and I hope it one day gets better.

Further, I think it is important to mention how Pedro felt while dressing up for this experiment. This experience gave him an influx of emotions it seemed. He felt confident and good when dressing up, but no himself. Then, on the other hand, when he was dressing down he seemed to have to prepare himself for the aggression and anger he would get for being himself and that is ridiculous in my opinion. He could not feel completely comfortable in his attire it seemed and that hurt me to see. So, beyond the results, we see how a person can feel going through a difficult experience like this.

To conclude, I think Pedro's experiment was very successful because it showed the awful present situation our society finds itself in. It seems we have become predisposed to negatively view African American males by their look and dress and that is not right. The feelings Pedro has about the experiment,a s it was happening, in reaction to the experiences he was happening dressing up and dressing down all but confirm that I think.
