Drug & Gang-related Homicide Investigations: 1 Day Course

Drug dealers and gang members are responsible for drive by shootings, home invasions, and violent murders in cities all across the United States. Law enforcement professionals must aggressively investigate these violent acts. If the perpetrators are not apprehended quickly, more violence will likely occur, injuring or killing innocent civilians.

This course is designed to expose the fact that a large number of murders occurring in America are somehow related to drugs and/or gangs. The course will also delve into the extreme violence associated with these murders.

The overall goal of this training program is to acquaint the novice investigator with all facets of investigating homicides that are drug and gang related. Attendees will become familiar with identifying persons associated with gangs, as well as those who purport themselves to be gang members. They will also discover that most of these gangs are nothing more than a group of loose knit individuals.

The course will enable the investigator to immediately interpret what he or she sees, the moment they arrive at the crime scene. The investigator will be able to analyze the construction of the crime scene, in addition to being able to recognize certain things which indicate that the homicide is drug or gang related.
