Investigative Criminal Procedure in Focus provides today’s law students with a thorough understanding of investigative criminal procedure. Using an innovative approach to teaching the law, its pedagogical features not only facilitate the mastery of complex legal concepts but provide hands-on exercises that give students the tools they need to succeed.

The book is divided into two parts. Part I provides a general introduction to the world of criminal procedure. Chapter 1 sets the stage by explaining the differences between substantive criminal law and criminal procedure as well as the differences between the investigative and adjudicative stages of the criminal justice process. Chapter 2 focuses on the sources of criminal procedure law.

Part II of the text begins the study of investigative criminal procedure. Chapters 3 to 6 each focus on a specific aspect of Fourth Amendment jurisprudence: what constitutes a Fourth Amendment search and seizure, who is covered by the Fourth Amendment, the state action and standing requirements (Chapter 3); probable cause and warrants (Chapter 4); exceptions to the warrant requirement (Chapter 5); and the exclusionary rule (Chapter 6). Chapter 7 focuses on three separate aspects of interrogation law — the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendment due process voluntariness requirement, the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination in the context of Miranda warnings, and the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. Chapter 8 addresses eyewitness identifications.
