Question 2

Pair students up and have each student take turns being the interviewing officer and the witness. The mini case premise involves the witness being shoved into a wall by a suspect who had just stolen books while exiting the book store with the stolen merchandise. The officer should take field notes. The hand written field notes will be turned in as the assignment. A good example for the students to follow can be found in Figures 3.2 and 3.3 in the textbook.
