Quality Assurance Standards for Convicted Offender DNA Databasing Laboratories
Standards for government DNA databasing labs put forth by the FBI that were in place at time of the 2000 trial. These quality assurance (QA) standards address proper sample handling, validation, analytical procedure, and calibration, as well as standards of laboratory organization, personnel certification, and management.https://engagedscholarship.csuohio.edu/sheppard_dna/1008/thumbnail.jp

A Security Threat Analysis of Smart Home Network with Vulnerable Dynamic Agents
This chapter presents a security analysis of a smart home network containing vulnerable dynamic agents in the form of smart toys. As a case study, a smart toy is used as an example of an Internet of Things (IoT) device which could be potentially used as a vector into the smart home network. This chapter discusses a threat model for smart home security with a focus on the smart toy as an entry point into the network and what a threat actor could potentially achieve through this relatively new type of threat to the home
Pervasive exposure to violence and posttraumatic stress disorder in a predominantly African American Urban Community: The Detroit neighborhood health study
Exposure to traumatic events is common, particularly among economically disadvantaged, urban African Americans. There is, however, scant data on the psychological consequences of exposure to traumatic events in this group. We assessed experience with traumatic events and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among 1,306 randomly selected, African American residents of Detroit. Lifetime prevalence of exposure to at least 1 traumatic event was 87.2% (assault = 51.0%). African Americans from Detroit have a relatively high burden of PTSD; 17.1% of those who experienced a traumatic event met criteria for probable lifetime PTSD. Assaultive violence is pervasive and is more likely to be associated with subsequent PTSD than other types of events. Further efforts to prevent violence and increase access to mental health treatment could reduce the mental health burden in economically disadvantaged urban areas.Peer Reviewedhttp://deepblue.lib.umich.edu/bitstream/2027.42/89475/1/20705_ftp.pd

Victimisation, Wellbeing and Compensation: Using Panel Data to Estimate the Costs of Violent Crime
The costs of violent crime victimisation are often left to a judge, tribunal or jury to determine; leading to the potential for considerable subjectivity and variation. Using unique panel data, this paper provides compensation estimates that can help reduce the subjectivity of awards by giving a benchmark for the compensation required to offset direct and intangible costs. First, individual-area fixed-effects models allowing for adaptation to crime are estimated to assess the effects of violent crime victimisation on diverse measures of wellbeing. These results are then subsequently used to calculate the monetary compensation required to offset the wellbeing losses. Estimates allowing for the endogeneity of income suggest that A$88,000 is required to compensate the average crime victim. We find some evidence that compensation estimates are larger if the wellbeing losses of female family members are considered, and are larger for females if the perpetrator of the crime is a stranger rather than a partner, friend or relative
