During the 1980s illegal drug use in Britain appeared to be increasing at an alarming rate and spreading across the country on an unprecedented scale. An apparent growth in the use of heroin caused particular concern: the number of known heroin addicts rose from just over two thousand in 1977 to more than ten thousand by 1987. Moreover, heroin use was being reported in urban areas throughout the country. This was in contrast to previous decades, when it was thought that drug use was largely confined to London. By 1985 the Conservative government was able to assert that “the misuse of drugs is one of the most worrying problems facing our society today.” Growing fears about drug use prompted a flurry of activity from both central and local government, from law enforcement bodies, voluntary organizations, and health professionals.

This paper examines two uploads on social media whose alleged sentences contain elements of defamation. The method used in this study is qualitative, i.e., describing data to determine the elements that can defame someone. Determination of these elements requires forensic linguistic analysis that is using linguistic evidence in law enforcement efforts. This evidence can be analyzed using lexical, grammatical and pragmatic semantic studies that are part of forensic linguistic studies. Based on the analysis, it can be concluded that from the lexical semantic perspective, the word used in the uploaded sentence has a negative denotation meaning. Based on the grammatical semantic analysis the sentence means demeaning a group of people. Pragmatically, not being said by the uploader is an expressive illocutionary act, which is an expression of disappointment and anger. In addition, the sentence uploaded to the account is also provocative, namely inviting the public to follow the uploader's opinion. Expressive illocutionary acts lead to acts of perlocution on the speech partners mentioned in the sentence. The act of occlusion is in the form of anger from community groups or individuals referred to in uploads. AbstrakMakalah ini mengkaji dua unggahan di media sosial yang diduga kalimatnya mengandung unsur pencemaran nama baik.  Metode yang digunakan pada penelitian ini adalah kualitatif, yakni mendekripsikan data untuk menentukan unsur-unsur yang dapat mencemarkan nama baik seseorang. Penentuan unsur tersebut memerlukan analisis linguisik forensik yakni menggunakan bukti kebahasaan dalam upaya penegakan hukum. Bukti tersebut dapat dianalisis dengan menggunakan kajian semantik leksikal, semantik gramatikal, dan pragmatik yang merupakan bagian dari kajian linguistik forensik. Berdasarkan analisis yang dilakukan diperoleh kesimpulan bahwa dari sudut pandang semantik leksikal, kata yang digunakan pada kalimat yang diunggah tersebut memiliki makna denotasi yang negatif. Berdasarkan analisis semantik gramatikal kalimat tersebut bermakna merendahkan sekelompok masyarakat. Secara pragmatik, tidak tutur yang dilakukan oleh penggunggah adalah tindak ilokusi ekspresif, yakni ekspresi kekecewaan dan kemarahan. Selain itu, kalimat yang diunggah pada akun tersebut juga bersifat provokatif, yakni mengajak masyarakat mengikuti pendapat si pengunggah.  Tindak ilokusi ekspresif menimbulkan tindak perlokusi pada mitra tutur yang disebut dalam kalimat tersebut. Tindak perlokusi itu berupa kemarahan kelompok masyarakat atau individu yang disebut di dalam unggahan.

Terjadinya kejahatan tersebut adalah kurangnya kontribusi penegak hukum dalam melakukan pengawasan dilingkungan sekolah, masyarakat, keluarga, dan diri pribadi dalam melakukan interaksi baik di media online maupun offline. Selain itu, kurangnya pemahaman aparat kepolisian dalam mengimplementasikan esensi Surat Edaran Hate Speech Republik Indonesia, Kitab Undang-Undang Hukum Pidana (KUHP). Tujuan yang akan dicapai dalam artikel ini adalah kebijakan hukum pidana terhadap kejahatan cyber-bullying di Indonesia, dan kebijakan hukum kriminal untuk era revolusi industri 4.0 dalam menyelesaikan kejahatan cyber-bullying. Penelitian ini menggunakan penelitian yuridis normative yang bersifat kualitatif. Pengumpulan bahan-bahan hukum dilakukan dengan mengidentifikasi dan menginventarisasi peraturan perundang- undangan, meneliti bahan pustaka, dan sumber-sumber bahan hukum lainnya. Teknik analisis isu hukum (legal issue) dalam penelitian ini menggunakan logika berpikir campuran. Maksudnya penalaran (hukum) yang merupakan gabungan dari pola pikir induktif (inductive) dan deduktif (deductive) dalam persoalan hukum faktual yang konkrit. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa kebijakan hukum pidana dalam menyelesaikan kejahatan cyber-bullying dapat terapkan oleh aparat penegak hukum berupa KUHP dan Undang-Undang No. 8 Tahun 2018 tentang Informasi Teknologi Elektronik dengan melihat isi penjelasan pasal demi pasal dan konten kejahatan yang dilakukan oleh pelaku. Kebijakan hukum Pidana di era revolusi industry 4.0 tetap mengacu pada aturan yang berlaku di Indonesia. The occurrence of such crimes is the lack of law enforcement contributions in conducting supervision in school, community, family, and personal self in the interaction of both online and offline media.

This paper provides a detailed analysis of patterns of income generation among 202 active heroin users in South West Sydney. We explore both sources of income and the relative contribution of different types of income generating activities, including drug sales and related activities, property crime, prostitution, legitimate income and avoided expenditures. Despite claims that heroin use leads inevitably to property crime, drug market activities accounted for a greater proportion of drug user income in this sample. Results indicate that law enforcement crackdowns that reduce opportunities for generating income from the drug market may increase property crime by heroin users.

Decentralisation aims to improve social welfare. However, the authority held by regional governments increases the opportunities for corruption in the forestry sector. The aim of this research is to elaborate on problematic decentralisation and corruption in the forestry sector; additionally, the study considers the change in forest management policy before, during, and after decentralisation in a discussion of the measures taken to eradicate regional corruption in the forestry sector. The findings indicate that holders of large amounts of capital are influential in politics, leading to legislation that favor’s individual interests over the welfare of low-income populations. The integrity and commitment of regional heads determine whether a region is corruption-free. The following could help reduce corruption that damages the environment within regional areas: (1) enforcing the commitment of regional heads to eradicating corruption; (b) strengthening the structure of law enforcement; and (c) strengthening community groups. It is recommended that the government enforce the integrity of regional heads and maintain an internal commitment in all areas to eradicating corruptors.

Particle analysis by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive x- ray analysis is one of the current methods used in crime laboratories to aid law enforcement in identifying individuals who have recently fired or handled a firearm. During the discharge of a firearm, the high pressure caused by the detonation of the cartridge materials forces a portion of the generated gases through leaks in the firing mechanism of the weapon. These gases contain residues of smokeless powder, primer mixture, and contributions from the projectile itself. The condensation of these hot gases form discrete, micrometer-sized particles, which can be collected, along with dry skin cells, salts, and other hand debris, from the hands of a shooter by a simple adhesive lift technique. The examination of the carbon-coated adhesive lifts consist of time consuming systematic searches for high contrast particles of spherical morphology with the characteristic elemental composition of antimony, barium and lead. A detailed list of the elemental compositions which match the criteria for gunshot residue are discussed in the Aerospace report.
