Overview
Blackstone's Police Investigators' Q&A 2014 consists of over 200 multiple-choice questions designed to test trainee investigators studying for the National Investigators' Examination (NIE). The Q&As are arranged in the same order as the chapters in the Blackstone's Police Investigators' Manual 2014, to aid learning and test understanding. This book also contains a useful section on how to study for the NIE, including advice on how to approach multiple-choice questions and useful exam techniques. All the multiple-choice questions contain answers with detailed explanations and references back to the Investigators' Manual. The book is designed to reinforce knowledge and understanding of the NIE syllabus. The NIE is a paper-based Multiple-Choice Question examination, testing knowledge of the law and procedure relevant to the role of a trainee investigator (in the areas of Evidence; Property Offences; Assaults, Drugs, Firearms & Gun Crime; and Sexual Offences). This Q&A book will help to highlight any gaps or weaknesses in that knowledge. Fully updated for 2014 to include coverage of new legislation including the Legal Aid, Sentencing and Punishment of Offenders Act 2012, the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012, the Criminal Procedure Rules 2012, the Terrorism Act 2000, as well as revised PACE Codes C, G and H. Written by an experienced and highly successful question writer, this text is a valuable learning aid and practice book for both students and trainers.
