This study explores literary pieces, which deal exclusively with murder in order to prove that the two disciplines literature and criminology, are intimately connected and essentially inseparable. Some literary pieces which deal with identifying the thought processes of murderers have been so insightful that crime experts applied them to certain high-profile cases. That so much violent crime is depicted in literature should stimulate further research into the links between criminology and literature. Robert Browning＇s “The Laboratory： Ancien Regime” （1844） is selected as a case study in order to demonstrate how criminological theories can successfully be applied to literary pieces. Browning＇s protagonist will prove to be a fictional manifestation of a female sadistic criminal as defined by psychiatrist/criminologist Paul De River in his criminology/sexology textbook for law enforcement personnel The Sexual Criminal（1949） .展开更多

The main objective of this approach is to increase the credibility status of the chain of custody on the handling of the material during incident （crime） scene management process （for both nuclear forensics and traditional forensic evidence collection） and its transportation from the scene to the suitable storage facility at Necsa. Aspects to be looked into during the response process include interactions between law enforcement agencies, Necsa relevant departments and the National Nuclear Regulator of South Africa. This paper focuses on the entire whole response process and associated prior arrangements, in order to show and provide a set of requirements attached to the material, the scope of critical relevant technical and law enforcement information that to be acquired by all parties involving and participating in the nuclear/radiological incident or event response process before the material is authorized for storage at a suitably qualified Necsa＇s nuclear forensics, which is dedicated storage facility on Pelindaba site.展开更多
