Beginning with an explanation of the major concepts in criminal justice, such as misdemeanor vs. felony crimes and the various degrees of each, this video covers the steps in the criminal justice system leading up to the pretrial/trial process. Topics covered include: the investigation process, questioning witnesses and suspects, the right to silence (5th Amendment rights), search warrants, arrest, the Miranda warning, and the booking process.
