I believe that one of the significant deficiencies from the 9/11 Commission Report was the deficiency of shared intelligence information between, local, state and federal agencies related to homeland security. Before 9/11, law enforcement intelligence was compartmentalized and disjointed. The FBI mainly dealt with domestic threats and the CIA mostly focused on foreign threats. I believe that the most significant function developed was “receiving and analyzing law enforcement information,…

UCR stands for Uniform Crime Report. The UCR started keeping track of criminal record in the 1920's. They officially launched their program in 1929. They receive their data from the FBI and report it to the state. The UCR divides crime into two parts. The first part is for the serious crimes such as criminal homicide, burglary, motor vehicle theft, arson, rape, robbery, Aggravated assault. The second part consists of less serious crimes. If you look at the crimes that are listed, you can see…

The four related officers in the early English and colonial period are the Sheriff, Coroner, Constable, and the Justice of the peace.

The producers of 24 utilize American paranoia to the show’s advantage and have subsequently changed the nation’s perception of the word interrogation, its meaning, use, and popularity. Ever since the tragedy of September 11 attacks, The American public has become aware that the United States is no longer invulnerable to terrorist attacks. Nowadays, people think that interrogation and torture are the same because 24 imposed on viewers the idea that torture is the most effective type of…

Codes and espionage are interesting topics. In fact, there are two books I know that are written historically about espionage. “The Dark Game: True Spy Stories from Invisible Ink to CIA Moles” by Paul Janeczko and “The Code Book: The Science of Secrecy from Ancient Egypt to Quantum Cryptography” by Simon Singh are both about the history of espionage. Although The Dark Game by Paul Janeczko and The Code Book by Simon Singh are both nonfiction books about the history of espionage, the point of…

In an evaluation of this film, an extraordinary impact will be presented on those who watched it and did not know much about the hunt for Osama Bin Laden. For those who watch this film as their only information of the situation and do no further intelligence gathering on the matter, they are going to be very misinformed. The conflict portrayed in the film was the hunting of Osama as stated earlier in this paper and it was shown extremely poorly within the film. For example, a big discretion…

the FBI and the CIA. Gorman addresses this issue and goes into vast detail why it appears there are some miscommunication between the two agencies.

Both agencies come from very diverse backgrounds. Hence is why the author kept referring to Mars for the FBI and Venus for the CIA. The FBI have been…

Edgar Hoover, former director of the FBI, received a memorandum that read, “Wire dispatches on June 7 1951, state Maclean and Burgess have defected behind the Iron Curtain… Our files reflect a contact between M[a]clean and Alger Hiss on October 19, 1946… Both contacts have related solely to official business.” Burgess and Maclean fled at the seemingly perfect time, leaving their allies and foes…

This thesis hypothesizes that the repeatedly negative portrayal of the Intelligence Community, its agents, and it’s employees by prime time television shows is eroding the public’s confidence and trust in the IC. This topic must begin with a basic discussion of how prime time programming portrays the Intelligence Community, its agenda and its employees. Following this discussion, existing literature within the scope of this paper’s thesis can be divided into two main categories: general…
