However, the Central Intelligence Agency is a comparatively new organization. It was established by President Truman by the signing of the National Security Act in 1947. The purpose of the CIA is: “to collect, evaluate and disseminate foreign intelligence” and “to engage in covert action at the president’s direction”. The agency formerly carried out many more undercover secret actions, many of which were in Central America.
Corrections Officer
A correctional officer watches over convicted criminals who are serving time in a penitentiary, jail, or reformatory. They also oversee those who are waiting for trail after being arrested. They preserve security and inmate responsibility to prevent escapes, assaults, and conflicts. Job authority of these officers is valid only in the institution where they are employed.
Court Clerks and Officials
Court clerks execute duties for a court of law including the processing legal records. Court clerks create a schedule of cases to be heard in court. Clerks send the participants information with the details of the trial. Clerks are also responsible for the preparation of post, file, and route documents and case folders. Clerks proof read legal documents submitted to the court to ensure the procedures followed were accurate. Incorrect documents require clerks to clarify the proper procedures or forms to those who submitted them.
Crime Scene Investigators
Crime scene investigators are responsible for carrying out complex crime scene investigations. They are accountable for the initial evaluation of the scene, and use various types of equipment to cultivate, secure, and package any physical evidence found at the scene, which will later be used for scientific comparison and evaluation. Crime scene investigators write up and organize detailed reports on the activities being carried out at the scene and the observations made. These reports are then given to the law enforcement agency in charge of investigating the crime. Crime scene investigators may also be asked to testify in court in regards to their findings and the processing methods that were used at the scene.
Forensic Science Examiner
Forensic scientists help solve crimes by collecting and analyzing physical evidence and other facts found at the scene. They specifically analyze fingerprints, blood, semen, firearms, saliva, and drugs, and may also reconstruct skeletal bones. In addition, forensic scientists write reports, preserve evidence, testify in court, and discuss evidence collection with attorneys and law enforcement personnel. Often times, the scientific breakdown of evidence is crucial in determining an accused person's guilt or innocence in a crime. Therefore, the role of forensic scientists is vital to the criminal justice process.
