GENERAL THEORY OF CRIMINALISITCS: APPROACHES TO DEVELOPMENT AND UNDERSTANDING
Authors: Zhuravel V.
Published: August 2021

The genesis and current state of scientific approaches to the formation and understanding of criminalistics general theory are outlined. It is noted that the general theory of criminalistics in its development has taken a hard and long way, where we can distinguish the following stages: 1) accumulation of the needed scientific potential in criminalistics; 2) emergence of scientific views as to the need to create a criminalistics general theory; 3) formation and development of scientific ideas on the general theory of criminalistics, its structure, functions, place in the system of criminalistics.

It is emphasized that the general theory of criminalistics, as a system of basic ideas of this branch of knowledge, covering the most complete reflection of the matter of science, its concepts, categories, definitions, methods in certain connections, is constantly developing. The fundamental provisions, which make up the basis of the general theory are being updated and improved. The degree of the general theory formation reflects the current level of the development of criminalistics science itself.

An integral part of the criminalistics general theory, its core are criminalistics doctrines (theories) that precede it or, conversely, are caused by it, and study only a certain range of objective reality patterns which are studied by criminalistics in general. The general theory of criminalistics could be considered as a system of different levels of generalization and direction of criminalistics’ doctrines, which collectively constitute the theoretical-methodological basis of that science. The system of criminalistics’ doctrines (theories) constitutes the content of the criminalistics general theory.

Taking into account the results of the conducted analysis on scientific approaches, it is suggested to distinguish three levels of doctrines in the structure of general theory: 1) criminalistics’ teachings (theories) of scientific-study nature, covering scientific-study issues on an object, subject, methods, area of research, system, nature, conceptual apparatus and categories of criminalistics (the criminalistics language), its inter-scientific relations and place in the system of scientific knowledge, history of development and current state;2) criminalistics teachings (theories) of general scientific nature, which embrace studying the patterns which apply to the entire subject under study, included in it as a whole; 3) criminalistics teachings (theories) of the specific scientific nature, concerning the study of patterns relating to certain aspects of the criminalistics subject, revealing its essence and specificity. The differentiation of criminalistics teachings (theories) into different levels is conditioned primarily by the degree of community of the reflected by them elements of the cognition object, which is introduced by criminalistics itself, or the event of a crime, or crime investigation activities.
CORRELATION AND STRUCTURE OF A FORENSIC TECHNIQUE AND FORENSIC SCIENCE
Authors: Shcherbakovsky M.
Published: August 2021

A historical analysis of forensic techniques and forensic science emergence as scientific branches is outlined, their interconnection, differences are considered, the subject, object and structure are clarified. It is shown that criminalistics and forensic science are both separate and kindred scientific branches that have common historical roots. The author proves that the development and gradual separation of forensic science from criminalistics did not change the scientific, methodological, didactic foundations and structure of a forensic technique as a component of criminalistics.

The structure of forensic technique and forensic science is suggested. The author presents the forensic technique modern structure in the form of the following sections: physical traces of crimes: types, classification, mechanism of formation; technical and forensic means and methods: classification, functional purpose; organizational and legal foundations of forensic support of offences investigation; means and methods of searching, recording, seizing, packaging and transporting traces of offenses; means and methods of preliminary investigation of offenses’ traces; information and reference support of offenses disclosure and investigation. Forensic science is represented in two parts: “General theory of forensic examination”, which includes theoretical provisions, doctrines inherent in all forensic fields, and “Methodological fundamentals  of certain types of forensic examinations”, which are the theoretical basis of certain forensic branches and are used for the development of methods for solving typical forensic tasks.

The close connection and mutual influence of two scientific branches and types of activity are noted. The connection is manifested in the unity of theoretical foundations, methodological approaches to the study of objects and, partially, in the use of technical means. The development of new forensic methods affects the advancement and improvement of technical and forensic means of collecting physical traces of a crime. On the contrary, the emergence of  new types of crime traces necessitates the creation of appropriate typical forensic research methods.

Published: August 2021

The use of international standard ISO / IEC 17025 in forensic institutions of Ukraine is an integral part of the international recognition procedure of the tests (examinations) results that they conduct. In connection with the entry of a new version of the international standard ISO / IEC 17025: 2017 and DSTU ISO / IEC 17025: 2017 into legal force, the issues of meeting new standards requirements have become increasingly relevant. The international standard provides for the use of risk-based thinking and a process approach in any field of activity, including forensic science. When conducting research, practitioners are faced with internal and external factors and various influences that lead to uncertainties in the degree of confidence regarding the examination result. Institutions that will evaluate and manage risks during their activity will have an advantage over other forensic institutions.

 

The purpose of the article is to review approaches to risk management and assessment, to suggest creating a single documented procedure for the risk management procedure in testing laboratories in the field of forensic science.

 

The article considers the concepts, basic approaches to risk management and assessment, as well as the authors present the risk management procedure developed by them in the testing laboratory of a forensic institution, which includes the stages of risk management and a risk assessment matrix.

 

Despite the fact that ISO / IEC 17025: 2017 does not require the development of a documented procedure for risk management, we nevertheless believe that it should be introduced for the effective operation of the testing laboratory. Development of a unified management procedure for managing and accessing risks in forensic activities will increase the results reliability of these activities.

Authors: Shepitko V.
Published: August 2021

The article is devoted to formation, development and current status of criminalistics as a science and academic discipline in Ukraine. Attention is drawn to some trends in criminalistics in modern conditions. The variability of forensic knowledge is associated with the scientific and technological progress of modern society.

Special attention is drawn to the role of criminalistics in scientific support of not only proof procedure, but also of various law enforcement procedures. The use of forensic knowledge is relevant in the practical activities of various lawyers: prosecutor, investigator, detective, judge, lawyer, notary, legal adviser, etc. The relationship between activities optimization of the court and law enforcement agencies with introduction of criminalistics innovations is established.

The approaches to teaching criminalistics for law students in Ukrainian universities are considered. The necessity of teaching criminalistics to law students of various specializations is substantiated. The volume of workload, period of study, forms of education, information transfer methods, methods of mastering practical skills are defined as parameters for teaching criminalistics and criminalistics disciplines.

The role of modernized methods in teaching criminalistics is justified. The following modernized methods are defined: business games, solving non-standard cognitive tasks, quick tests, the use of multimedia tools and electronic data base, technical tools, etc. The possibilities of using the criminalistics training ground and criminalistics museum in the course of practical seminars and laboratory works are demonstrated.
MICROTRACES IN THE SYSTEM OF CRIMINAL CHARACTERISTICS OF TERRORIST NATURE CRIMES
Authors: Chornyi H.
Published: August 2021

The article is devoted to study of problems of microtraces classification at the general theoretical and scientific forensic level with subsequent extrapolation to microtraces which form a typical trace evidence picture of forensic characteristics in terrorist nature crimes. The analysis of scientific approaches to the definition of microtrace allows us to identify and outline main features typical for this definition, namely: small size; small amount of substances and materials: invisible or faintly visible under normal conditions of observation; peculiarities of their detection, record, seizure and research. The classification of microtraces based on various grounds is provided. Thus, according to organization of matter (form of physical embodiment), microtraces (microparticles) are divided into: single physical formations (individual physical bodies with a stable form); substances (materials) that do not take the from of an individual body (liquids, powdered substances). In accordance with immediate source of origin, micro-objects are classified into two large groups: parts of natural origin (from natural objects); parts separated from objects that are largely processed or man-made. In the first group, four subgroups must be distinguished: microtraces that have separated from the human body; micro-objects from animal; microparticles from plants; micro-objects of mineral nature. When considering micro-objects in conjunction with carrier objects, they are differentiated by a trace-forming object and the type of contact with the carrier: overlay; inclusion; layering.

It is noted that the most typical ways of committing terrorist nature crimes are the use of firearms, cold weapons and the use of explosive weapons and / or explosives.

Taking into account the fact that manufacture, possession and use of explosive weapons or explosives for the investigation of crimes of this category affects the criminal law qualification, tactics of individual investigative actions (eg site inspection, search, etc.). Microtraces can be classified according to conditions and time of their formation into the following groups: formation of microtraces that are associated with illegal manufacture, acquisition, storage, sale of explosive weapons or explosives; microtraces of preparation of explosive weapons directly before the explosion; microtraces of explosive weapons. The analysis of the essence of these situations allowed the author to establish and provide an appropriate list of typical microtraces in investigation of terrorist nature crime.
PROBLEMS OF USING THE METHOD OF RECONSTRUCTION WHILE LEGAL ACTIVITY
Authors: Hryhorenko A.
Published: August 2021

The peculiarities of using the method of reconstruction as a forensic method not only while pre-trial investigation of crimes, but also in the process of carrying out other types of legal activity are considered. The forensic essence of investigative, prosecutorial, advocacy and judicial activity is analyzed. Peculiarities of execution of forensic method of reconstruction while implementation of these types of legal activity are determined.

The conclusion as to inter-branch nature of criminalistics as a science has been drawn. On the example of implementation of the method of reconstruction, it is determined that application of criminalistics provisions is the basis for other types of legal activity.

The importance of the method of reconstruction in investigative activity is substantiated which is due to its retrospective nature. The process of reproduction serves as the basis for the possibility to discover the events of a criminal offense by investigators.

Application of the method of reconstruction while implementation of prosecutorial activity is studied. Its pervasive nature during participation in criminal proceedings which are conditioned by the need for a prosecutor to exercise both procedural guidance and support for public prosecution in court has been established.

The problems of advocacy implementation from forensics perspective are analyzed. The need for constant implementation of the process of reproduction of corresponding processes, phenomena, actions and events while implementation of this type of activity has been established.

Peculiarities of application of the reconstruction method during implementation of judicial activity are considered. The process of reproduction is defined as the basis for administrating justice by considering legal disputes, criminal charges, and issuing court’s judgement.

The impossibility of implementation of investigative, prosecutorial, lawyer and judicial activities without application of the method of reconstruction is highlighted. The definition of the method of reconstruction as a basis for discovering events, phenomena, processes that existed in the past and are important for implementation of these types of legal activities is substantiated.

APPROACHES TO DETERMINING POST-MORTEM INTERVAL
Authors: Olkhovsky V. , Grygorian E. , Myroshnychenko M.
Published: August 2021

The main approaches and problems that arise when evaluating postmortem interval are defined, ways to avoid such problems are suggested. According to the results of scientific papers analysis on that topic, it was established that in the context of post-mortem changes studies such changes developed differently during a specific period of time passed from the time of death, they also appeared in a variety of forms as a result of environmental factors influence. The factors having a significant impact on postmortem changes were specified. A review of modern methods for determining post-mortem interval was conducted and methods for further improvement of the assessment of postmortem interval were proposed.

The use of methods for assessing the PMI by means of the cadaveric phenomena does not always provide for investigating authorities necessary information due to the relatively large time interval in methods based on such changes. Researchers also note the presence of certain shortcomings in the use of existing methods.

Current research using laser polarimetry methods have made it possible to establish post-mortem interval with relatively high accuracy. However, high prices and limited availability of equipment used in laser polarimetry methods preclude from using them in everyday practice of forensic medical examiners.

When conducting studies on histological and biochemical changes in tissues of internal organs, certain morphological (decrease in optical density) and biochemical (changes in the levels of biochemical markers) changes in the early post-mortal period were identified, which will enable the development of specific tables where such changes would be linked to a specific post-mortem time period during certain short periods of time. Although changes in the conducted research were recognized only in the early post-mortem period and only in muscle tissue, further research on other tissues that are more resistant to post-mortem changes are likely to provide results that would be less affected by ambient temperature, exposure of a corpse to the sun rays, amount of clothing on a corpse, etc.) and also would be more accurate than most existing methods.

Published: August 2021

The article is devoted to consideration of main results of semantic and textual analysis of calls in the modern Ukrainian socio-political discourse. Forensic linguistic (semantic and textual) examination of speech to identify statements expressed as calls is one of the most relevant ones while pre-trial investigation and trial of criminal proceedings.

The Article purpose is defining of a subject and object in forensic linguistic (semantic and textual) examination of writing, analysis of publicity criterion as one of fundamental during the establishment of appeal illocution in text content.

The research was conducted on the basis of general scientific methods as well as on the basis of linguistics special methods and techniques, namely, using the method of observation, method of linguistic-stylistic analysis of a text, method of modeling, methods of semantic-syntactic and lexical-grammatical analysis, etc. Communicative intention of the author of the research in general was established with the help of the discursive method and the method of intent-analysis.

The main result of the study is to obtain practical data on establishing the role of connotations of verbs of different modes of action in the structure of calls. The analysis of utterances with such a component as an indirect appeal is significant, its grammatical features are determined, and competence boundaries of a forensic expert in the field of forensic linguistic examination of a text are reflected in the article. It is established that nominalization is often used in the structure of constructions with the call illocution which belongs to the transformational speech process of transforming words of the verb grammatical form into a noun structural unit. The main characteristics of such types of appeals common in modern Ukrainian socio-political communicative discourse as call-slogan, call-appeal, call-program, evaluation-motivational call, etc., are outlined in the article. It is proved that main factors influencing type differences of calls are their semantic load and grammatical design.

So far, the results of linguistic, semantic-textual research of appeals are the basis of a single algorithm for the study of speech structures of this type, they are relevant and significant for modern forensic practice.

Published: August 2021

The article examines feasibility of conducting a series of experiments, results of which will serve as the basis for developing a method for establishing the mechanism of formation of plant origin stains on articles of clothing. Based on the analysis of special literature, the author introduces arguments for the need to develop such a methodology. In the course of experimental research, with the help of extras, circumstances of clothing contact with vegetation cover at various sites which can occur while crime commission have been simulated. The obtained data which will become the basis for creating a methodology for establishing a mechanism of grass layers’ formation on articles of clothing is obtained. A flowchart of dependence of the mechanism of stains formation on properties, states of interacting objects and nature of contact has been developed. During investigation of the mechanism of stains formation similar to grass stains, a multidisciplinary forensic trace evidence and botany forensic analyses should be initiated. After receiving research objects and materials review, the Expert Commission conducts external examination of provided physical evidence. For this purpose, clothes are laid out one by one on a laboratory bench, each item is described separately and photographed according to the rules of forensic photography. The next stage is the study by a forensic botanist of identified layers of plant origin in order to establish their nature. Then a trace evidence examiner conducts forensic trace evidence analysis of identified layers of grass stains. Based on the analysis of the complex of identified features and properties shown in the flowchart, the Expert Commission formulates the synthesizing part of the conclusion according to which the conclusion as to the mechanism of trace formation is drawn.

Authors: Fedorchenko V. , Kalashnikov Ye.
Published: August 2021

Establishing of causes and circumstances that could affect failure of both parts individually and mechanisms generally of the “Active curve system” active stabilization system in Mercedes-benz GLS500 4MATIC cars is considered. The relevance of this scientific paper is due to novelty of installing an active stabilizer on vehicles which ensures minimal car body roll. Design, a principle of work and forensic expert research while inspection and study of the “Active curve system” active stabilization system of Mercedes-benz GLS500 4MATIC using modern equipment and research methods are presented. Measures to prevent failure of structural parts and systems are considered, which will ensure reliable and safe work of the “Active curve system” active stabilization system in the process of operation.

The system allows you to keep a car within the path set by a driver in various driving modes (acceleration, braking, moving along a straight line, while road curves and free rolling). Determination of occurrence of a traffic collision is carried out by comparing actions of a driver and parameters of a car. In case when a driver’s actions (desired driving parameters) differ from the actual vehicle motion parameters, the “Active curve system” active stabilization system recognizes the situation as uncontrolled and starts working. In case of understeer, the “Active curve system” active stabilization system prevents a car from slipping out of turning trajectory by slowing down a rear inner wheel and changing an engine torque. In case of oversteer, skidding of a car during turns is prevented by slowing down a front outer wheel and changing an engine torque. Operation in this case is of a cyclical nature: pressure increase, pressure containment and pressure relief in the “Active curve system” active stabilization system. The system that combines the system of electronic stability control, steering and car suspension is called vehicle dynamics management integrated system.

Managing Bahiagrass in Hybrid Bermudagrass Pastures
Authors: Sellers Brent A. , Ferrell Jason A.
Published: August 2021

Bahiagrass is the most common forage grown in Florida, covering approximately 2.5 million acres. The popularity of bahiagrass in Florida can be attributed to its drought tolerance, low fertility requirements, and persistence even under heavy grazing. Although bahiagrass is an important forage species, it can be a serious weed problem for those wishing to produce high-quality bermudagrass hay. Bahiagrass typically does not invade a healthy bermudagrass sward, but as the stand begins to thin and nutrients such as nitrogen become limiting, bahiagrass invasion is common. Additionally, a small percentage of bahiagrass seed can remain in the soil for several years. A healthy bermudagrass sward is necessary to prevent bahiagrass establishment, but herbicides can be used if encroachment begins. This document is SS-AGR-257, one of a series of the Agronomy Department, UF/IFAS Extension.

Phase-Feeding the Beef Herd for Improved Feed Utilization
Authors: Hersom Matt
Published: August 2021

The dairy industry utilizes the concept of differences in nutrient requirements of different cows within the herd and manages nutrient supply accordingly. In that regard, the dairy industry approaches different cow nutrient requirements by implementing phase feeding in the cow herd. Phase feeding is defined as: changing the nutrient concentrations in a series of diets formulated to meet an animal's nutrient requirements more precisely at a particular stage of growth or production. Phase feeding in the dairy industry is implemented based on placing cows into multiple feeding groups based on their lactation status. The phase feeding strategy is utilized to address the different nutrient requirements associated with milk production intensity. The dairy industry addresses the nutrient requirements of cows not on a singular basis but on a multiple nutrient basis.  This document is AN157, one of a series of the Animal Sciences Department, UF/IFAS Extension.

Published: August 2021

This fact sheet is one in a series intended to familiarize readers with land use issues at the rural-urban fringe. Several of the fact sheets specifically address techniques used in various states, including Florida, to encourage the long-term stability of land in agricultural production. Many states use more than one technique in an attempt to prevent land from converting from agricultural to non-agricultural use. Other techniques used to sustain agricultural land, explicitly addressed in forthcoming fact sheets, include Fee Simple Purchase and Purchase of Development Rights, Transfer of Development Rights, Clustering of Development, and Conservation Easements. Other fact sheets addressing rural-urban land use issues are available through the UF/IFAS Electronic Data Information System (EDIS) at http://edis.ifas.ufl.edu. This is EDIS document FE555, a publication of the Department of Food and Resource Economics, Florida Cooperative Extension Service, Institute of Food and Agricultural Sciences, University of Florida, Gainesville, FL.
