Product Description
Criminal investigation is a dynamic endeavor impacted by changes in human nature, statutory and constitutional laws, and methods of operation. New challenges are constantly posed for the investigator and the investigation of drug offenses is no exception. It takes advanced skills to keep pace with the criminal mind. Unfortunately, the skills acquired in basic police training are just that: basic. In order to stay ahead of their criminal counterparts, drug enforcement officers must seek extensive, ongoing training and knowledge, not just to secure a lawful conviction but to keep themselves and the public safe.

This new edition of the bestselling Practical Drug Enforcement provides a thoroughly revised and updated guide to the contemporary aspects of covert criminal investigations and the management of the drug enforcement unit itself. Appealing to a wide variety of law enforcement officers in all jurisdictions, it addresses different methods of detection, investigation, surveillance, and capture of drug traffickers as well as identifies those methods commonly employed by criminals to avoid detection. Drawing from the author’s expertise in the field, and as a nationally recognized consultant, this book contains practical hands-on information for the officer in the street and the administrator coordinating operations. This edition includes new drug identification photos, charts, and updated statistics, as well as an entirely new chapter on the surreptitious monitoring of suspects, entrapment, and “possession with intent” cases.

New topics include—

  • Drug courier profiling
  • High-tech surveillance, includingGPS and thermal imaging
  • Raid procedures for clandestine labs
  • Drug diversion by physicians andpharmacies
  • Searching, seizing, and handlingdrug evidence
  • Reverse sting operations
  • Undercover work, risks, and stress
  • Informant management
  • Designed as an investigative resource on current drug enforcement techniques, Practical Drug Enforcement, Third Edition allows law enforcement personnel from a variety of jurisdictions and priorities to maintain concurrent initiatives regarding the identification, apprehension, and prosecution of all known drug offenders and drug traffickers at local and national levels. ...

    Product Description
    The constraints on case making and case working, the sources of facts, the role of uncertainty, and the importance of perspective and enactment are among the central topics discussed in this masterful study of work, behavior, professionalization, and bureaucracy in the world of drug law enforcement. Based on his participant observation in two police units in the United States, Manning describes how drug regulation continues to be a part of symbolic politics—a way of singling out individuals, groups, and lifestyles perceived as morally degenerate. The second edition of The Narcs’ Game includes an outline of social changes that have occurred since Manning’s original study and provides an updated assessment of the contexts and sources of stability in the practice of drug law enforcement. ...

    2-0 out of 5 stars Better Books Out There
    This book takes what many would consider a mid level drug dealer and the search for him across the world - hence the "Marco Polo" tag.Well the villain here is not that bad so it is hard to get excited about the chase. He is no choirboy to be sure, but he is not a Pablo Escobar either.The detail of the police tactics used is interesting. The disappointing thing to me was the detail of how disjointed law enforcement is in the western world, nobody wants to work with any other countries? The book is ok and you can probably guess what happens in the end. If you are interested in this type of story, Killing Pablo by Mark Bowden is far better and more up to date. ... Read more

    Editorial Review

    Product Description
    It's a national epidemic and an international conspiracy. Drugs have infested our society with a vengeance, making the drug enforcement agent a central figure in the war on drugs. International training teams of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) have traditionally taught the special skills required by all drug agents. Until now, there has never been a book for public consumption devoted strictly to this specialized field of criminal investigation.Global Drug Enforcement: Practical Investigative Techniques provides basic and advanced methods for conducting modern drug investigations. With coverage of source countries, drug identification, conspiracy investigations, clandestine laboratories, drug intelligence, and money laundering, the book includes the topics that every detective assigned to a drug investigation unit must know. The chapter on drug identification discusses the drugs that all law enforcement officers are likely to encounter including heroin, marijuana, cocaine, methamphetamine, PCP, and the emerging club drugs of Ecstasy, GHB, and Ketamine. A glossary of common terms used in drug enforcement and chapters on the nexus between drugs and terrorism provide additional insight.Based on the training and experiences of a recently retired Supervisory Special Agent of the DEA who was a former instructor for DEA's Office of Training at the FBI Academy, this book provides domestic and international agencies with a comprehensive reference on contemporary drug enforcement. It greatly expands on many of the topics that DEA employees receive in their training and covers the areas that investigators need to understand in order to conduct safe and effective drug operations. ...

    4-0 out of 5 stars Global Drug Enforcement: Practical Investigative Techniques
    Good book, lots of information I just don't believe it should be available to non-law enforcement personnel. I couldn't help thinking that in the wrong hands some of this informantion can put officers in danger!

    2-0 out of 5 stars This Book trains the criminal !!!
    Gregory D. Lee may have had a distinguished career with the DEA, and this book may be well written but I can't help but notice that Mr. Lee discusses tactics and procedures that ultimately assist in training criminals to outmanuever the very law enforcement officers who are still on the job attempting to make an impact on the war on drugs. Why is he publishing operational information that can benefit the drug cartels?? Its about selling books, and making profits, not protecting tactics that law enforcement officers still use. Shame on you Greg :(

    Product Description
    Drug testing has become an increasingly important part of the public sector workplace.For law enforcement officers, courts have granted government employers wide discretion in choosing a drug testing strategy.Brunet seeks to understand what leads one law enforcement agency to adopt a more rigorous testing program while another abstains from testing workers altogether.An emerging literature on drug testing as a mechanism of social control provides the theoretical base.An analysis of a sample of law enforcement agencies finds evidence that social distance within police organizations, the social status of officers, and the influence of third parties play significant roles in shaping a department’s drug testing policy. ...

    Product Description

    As drug trafficking and the abuse of illicit drugs continue to inflict untold harm upon our society, it is clear that a global initiative and an intense domestic strategy are vital to address the sophisticated drug trafficking organizations (DTOs) that are prevalent in many regions. Covering a wide array of domestic interdiction topics, Drug Interdiction: Partnerships, Legal Principles, and Investigative Methodologies for Law Enforcement, Second Edition is the most comprehensive drug interdiction book available, providing a "how-to" step-by-step guide for all law enforcement officers.

    Explores the gamut of interdiction scenarios

    Drawing on their multiple years of experience, the authors explore a range of issues that confront today’s drug interdiction officer. The book explains how to initiate specific domestic drug interdiction programs and discusses how to use business partnerships to assist law enforcement in identifying potential violators who use legitimate businesses to facilitate the drug trade. It examines consensual encounters, the use of drug canines, and interdictions involving trains, buses, airports, and rental vehicles. Wide-ranging in scope, the text also covers interdictions at hotels and those involving storage units and parcel systems. The book includes a chapter on currency seizures as well as chapters on report writing, courtroom testimony, and the role of the interdiction supervisor. Each chapter includes relevant case law that supports the protocol described.

    Reliable techniques, tested in the field

    The techniques presented in this volume are tried and true methods, utilized by the authors as part of many years of successful narcotics investigations. The unbeatable methods are deeply rooted in case law to ensure proper execution of the practices described, and admissibility in court of the evidence seized.

    What’s New in the Second Edition:

    • Updated case law and case studies
    • New information on trends, practices, and investigative techniques
