What causes competent and dedicated investigators to make avoidable mistakes? Drawing on the research and experience of the author's 21 year career in investigation, Criminal Investigative Failures defines and discusses the problems that are common to failed investigations. Exploring cognitive bias, errors in probability, and organizational traps, the first three chapters lay the foundation for the remainder of the book which consists of contributions from scholars, police investigators, and journalists that elaborate the core points and present relevant cases. The book includes an insightful introduction and conclusion and is supported by extensive references.
