First responders play a crucial role in the establishment of a crime scene. Upon arriving at the scene, the first responders have checked for living victims and have rendered aid. It’s important to create a perimeter around the crime scene (this can be altered if additional evidence is found outside the initial crime scene). Only emergency personnel should enter and exit from the central entry point to control contamination, by creating an exit point; it helps avoid any excessive traffic through the crime scene. By secure the scene to ensure that no evidence is misplaced or damaged, or otherwise compromised. Do a cursory check of the crime scene to obtain any transient evidence and secure any weapons found at the scene (in this case it was already at the scene with the suspect). Crime scene analysts and investigators communicate with first responders and are quickly briefed on the situation, and now a more thorough search can be conducted.
Motor vehicle theft has always been a major issue in the United States. In 2013, 697,979 motor thefts were reported in the nation. The FBI stated that every forty-four seconds a car is stolen in the United States (Rocky Mountain Insurance Information Association). In 2010, more than 4.5 billion dollars were lost throughout the nation because of motor vehicle theft (U.S. Department of Justice Federal Bureau of Investigation).

The independent variables in this study are the criminals who commit motor vehicle theft. Both variables types are scale.
