Customer Reviews: Criminal Evidence: Principles and Cases October 2, 1999 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
CRIMINAL EVIDENCE is a well written textbook that describes the many laws governing different types of evidence. Whether it be fingerprints, photographs or other documents, this book covers it all. It teaches you the laws of Search and Seizure and how the Exclusionary Rule (Fruits of the Poisonous Tree Doctrine/Derivative Evidence Rule) comes about when illegally obtained evidence is presented in court. This book also explains vehicle stops, arrest, and search warrant requirements.
Evidence at its best July 26, 2008 M. Farmer (Reva, VA United States) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
After having gone to law school and studying under a prosecutor I took this evidence course using this textbook from a retired Marine JAG officer and it was outstanding. This book is well written and it describes the laws governing different types of evidence. Whether it be verbal statements, hearsay, things said before or after arrest or other documentation, this book covers it all. It applies the laws of Search and Seizure and describes and applies the Exclusionary Rule (Fruits of the Poisonous Tree Doctrine/Derivative Evidence Rule). This book also explains and applies vehicle stops, arrest, and search warrant requirements. Taught by a retired Marine JAG officer and Asst Prosecutor made it that much better.
Wow, talk about concise. February 4, 2009 N. Yu (San Francisco, CA) This book is very concise and to the point. The text gives me what I need to know, and is easily understandable. This neat little book isn't a load to carry around, so that's a plus too.
I must wonder why this small book is anything worth more than $50 though. However, it's a great and insightful book. Enjoy!
