Your textbook gives five general examples of obstruction of justice. Name four of these.

What will be an ideal response?

Answers can include any of the following:

•Bribery and the attempt or conspiracy to commit bribery or extortion: For example, 
paying off a police officer so as not to be arrested is bribery and threatening to accuse someone of a crime or to file criminal charges in exchange for money is extortion.
•Perjury, false testimony, and interfering with a law enforcement officer in the 
performance of his or her official duties: An example of this would be lying under oath.
•Tampering with the jury process, such as by threatening jurors, attempting to harm 
jurors, or actually causing harm to them or to their families
•Suppressing or refusing to produce evidence relevant to a grand jury investigation, 
such as by destroying papers or other evidence after receiving notice of such an investigation
