Read the case below and complete this assignment.

A child was playing in a local park with his brother. A car pulled up as they were leaving the playground. A man inside the car motioned for the two (2) boys to come over. The man asked the two (2) boys where the nearest convenience store was located. He then stated that he was not familiar with the area and asked the boys to show him the way and he would take them home afterwards. He also stated that he would buy them whatever they wanted if they agreed to show him. The youngest brother got into the car with the man and they drove away. The older sibling ran home and told his mother what had happened. The younger brother was not heard from that night and a report was made to the police. The next day a body was found in a dumpster behind a local garage. It was the younger brother, who had been strangled to death and was nude.

Imagine that you are the lead investigator in this case and develop a two to three (2-3) page investigation plan in which you:

  1. Outline the main steps that you would take immediately as it relates to the investigation of this case. Support your response.
  2. Propose your methods for evidence collection. Next, predict the main evidence that you would expect to find regarding the investigation of the death of the boy and the arrest of the suspect. Support your response.
  3. Propose the main investigative techniques that you would use to investigate the murder in this case. Provide a rationale for your response.
  4. Use at least two (2) quality academic resources as references, such as journal articles, newspapers, magazines, and publications from law enforcement associations. Note: Wikipedia, blogs, and similar websites do not qualify as quality academic resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

  • This course requires use of new Strayer Writing Standards (SWS). The format is different than other Strayer University courses. Please take a moment to review the SWS documentation for details.
  • Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow SWS or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
  • Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

  • Discuss the theoretical undertones of policing strategies (i.e., community policing, patrol patterns).
  • Develop a clear understanding of proper investigative techniques associated with violent and property crimes.
  • Discuss the proper methods for evidence collection.
  • Use technology and information resources to research advanced issues in law enforcement.
  • Write clearly and concisely about advanced issues in law enforcement using proper grammar and mechanics.
  • Discuss ideological and practical positions and debate controversial issues in policing.

SLP – Framework and Modular Assignments

/in /by
  1. The intent of the SLP is for you to transform the theoretical and general aspects as covered and based in each module’s case paper, to a “Board-meeting” presentation.
  2. The SLP (like the cases) is a cumulative project that will demonstrate the culmination of your understanding and your ability to identify the key points of your case work, and transform them into relevant slides utilizing Microsoft PowerPoint software (PPT).
  3. Remember that the presentation will be submitted to the “MHA599 Consulting Team” (MHA599CT) board of directors at their bi-weekly board–meeting, so presentation needs to be directed to this executive audience.
  4. I am confident that you will enjoy developing this project, and hone your business presentation skills in the process.

Guidelines for Effective PowerPoint Presentations

  1. Do not attempt to dazzle your audience with psychedelic visual effects, multi colors, and eye-boggling animations.
  2. Do not just copy and paste your case text into the slides.
  3. Focus on the content and what message you want to get across to the board.
  4. Think Audience – Ensure that all slides are viewable (i.e., relevant text in viewable font size.)
  5. “one picture is worth a thousand words” – include graphs, diagrams, etc., as appropriate.
  6. Do not use all caps except for titles.
  7. Keep the background consistent and subtle.
  8. Use only enough text when using charts or graphs to explain; clearly label the graphic.
  9. Keep the design clean and uncluttered. Leave empty space around the text and graphics.
  10. Check the spelling and grammar.

SLP – Organization

  1. The number of slides per module should be about 10-15.
  2. Prepare and submit the sectional/modular slides for each module, adding the preceding ones (i.e., in Module 2 you will combine and submit sections 1 and 2, and so on.
  3. Amend each section per the feedback you will get from your instructor.
  4. Finally, you will aggregate all sections into one complete and comprehensive PPT following the SLP framework detailed below, and submit together by the due date of Module 4.

SLP – Framework and Modular Assignments

The complete SLP will consist of the following sections:

  1. Title slide – to be submitted in Module 1.
  2. Background – to be submitted in Module 1.
  3. The External Environment – Data Gathering – to be submitted in Module 1.
  4. Market Research and Segmentation – to be submitted in Module 1.
  5. Organizational Structures and Functions – to be submitted in Module 2.
  6. Finance and Budgeting – to be submitted in Module 3.
  7. Quality, Ethical, and IT Controls – to be submitted in Module 4.
  8. Conclusions and Recommendations – to be submitted in and for all modules.

SLP Assignment Expectations

As stated in the course and modular outcomes, you are expected to demonstrate critical thinking and a solid analytical and theoretical knowledge of all previous courses in the program.

Furthermore, emphasis should be inputted on applying what you already know to the task of developing an individual project that reflects synthesis, integration, and real-life application (action plans).

As the environment is of a real-life project team, you will be assessed as to how well you present your work to your company and peers (writing and presentations).

Feedback and comments from your instructor and peers should be implemented and early recommendations adjusted accordingly.

Good Luck and Enjoy!

 Given the yearly sales in yearly_sales .csv file, complete the following: Show all the descriptive statistics of sales_total, including its standard deviation and variance. Correlation of number_of_order to sales_total. Plot the scatter graph of number_of_order to sales_total. Perform linear regression of number_of_order to sales_total. Draw the line of best fit (abline) over your graph. Perform T test as shown below and show your conclusion. Perform ANOVA test as shown below and show your conclusion. T test This is to test for the mean of one group; here we have sale_total. t.test(sales_total, mu = 249) # R command for t test H0: mu = 249 # null hypothesis H1: mu ≠ 249 # alternative hypothesis Rejection level = 0.05 (implies 95% confidence level) Do not Reject H0 if p-value is <= 0.05 Reject H0 if p-value is > 0.05 ANOVA test ANOVA is used to test the equality of mean for two groups; here we have Male and Female. anova(lm(data = myData, sales_total ~ factor(gender))) # R command for ANOVA test. H0: There is significant difference between Male and Female sales_total. H1: There is no significant difference between Male and Female sales_total. Rejection level = 0.05 (implies 95% confidence level) Do not Reject H0 if p-value is <= 0.05 Reject H0 if p-value is > 0.05
