Moore (criminology, Delta State U.) evaluates the problems associated with applying traditional search-and-seizure jurisprudence to cases of high technology crimes. He describes why practitioners must understand technology crime under the Fourth Amendment, how they can examine computer and cyber crimes, past responses to high technology crime and emerging law, the volatile nature of digital evidence and its integrity, the process of assembling and executing a search warrant using a team approach, warrantless searches and seizures, especially in physical evidence, and recommendations for the future. He provides lists of references and court decisions along with descriptions of relevant technology and the text of section 2703(1) of the Electronics Communications Privacy Act of 1986.
