As it relates to criminal investigations, what were the most significant recommendations following the PERF study?
What will be an ideal response?
The value of follow-up investigations by detectives in identifying and arresting suspects is also thought to be much greater than indicated by earlier studies. Greater emphasis should be placed on the collection and use of physical evidence when applicable. Police departments should develop policies and guidelines regulating the use of evidence technicians in routine cases such as burglary and robbery when there has been no physical injury to victims. Officers should dedicate greater effort to locating wit- nesses through the use of a neighborhood canvas.
