Illinois Criminal Law and Procedure: A Law Enforcement Perspective/Statutes, Cases and Commentary (formerly titled Criminal Law and Procedure for Illinois police) has long been a leading authoritatitve resource for the training and continuing education of Illinois law enforcement personnel. With a new author on board, this work surpasses the past editions with its thorough, accurate and timely treatment of hundreds of legal questions and issues that face Illinois police officers. In completely revising this work, the author draws on 22 years of combined experience in criminal law. The book contains the text of hundreds of provisions of the Illinois Compiled Statutes that implicate law enforcement, together with annotations that explain and expand understanding of the statutes. The law of arrest, search and seizure and the law of evidence as it relates to police work are also addressed in a meaningful and comprehensive manner. The developing law of "concealed carry" of firearms, Terry stops, and the custodial interrogation of juveniles under the age of 13 are but a few of the issues addressed
