https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AL8chWFuM-s
"I fought the law and the law won."
Byrnes would get a kick out of this song because it's practically a criminal admitting he lost to the law. Byrnes would use this song to support the fact the law always wins and so does he. He claims his 'third degree' basically always works.



Song 2: Inner Circle - Bad Boys
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yVBB2upbVys
"Bad boys, bad boys
Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do
When they come for you"
There is no doubt that Byrnes would have this song on his playlist. It's a famous police song after all. Byrnes struck fear into all the criminals, eventually making it so crime rate was lowering dramatically. "Whatcha gonna do, whatcha gonna do
When they come for you" Is similar to Byrnes's thought process that no criminal could escape from him where the criminal has nothing to do when Byrne comes for them.


Song 3: Bob Marley - I Shot the Sheriff
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2XiYUYcpsT4
"I shot the sheriff, but I did not shoot the deputy
All around in my home town
They're trying to track me down
They say they want to bring me in guilty
For the killing of a deputy
I shot the sheriff, but I swear it was in self-defense"
Byrnes would have this in his playlist purely to argue against. He would have arrested someone who shot a sheriff in self defense anyway. Byrnes was a famous detective, but he was definitely not a very just one or what some would say corrupted. His third degree involved beating criminals until they confessed and he also accepted police bribes.]]> 2018-11-02 14:22:25 UTC https://padlet.com/skylyn_schaefer/wl6dteogujn7/wish/299800696 skylyn_schaefer https://padlet.com/skylyn_schaefer/wl6dteogujn7/wish/299805359 App 1: Patrolman's Vehicle Guide
This is a guide to the new sudden vehicles on the street. The app is used to identify different kinds of cars and email other officers about information on suspicious vehicles. Byrnes would have used this while out on patrol to identify a suspect's car. He could also take a picture of the car and send it to other police even in other cities just like he did with the mugshots. He would like to use this app since the mugshots were similar to this and proved to be very effective.

App 2: Shooter
Shooter can tell you clues on where a bullet was fired from and perhaps even what type of gun. This would have been useful for the Jim Fisk shooting case Byrnes had solved. He would be able to find out where the assassin had shot from that took Fisk's life, and what type of gun. After knowing the type of gun, he could narrow his suspects down to a select few who have possession to that specific weapon.

App 3: Snapchat
Being such a popular app, it's no wonder Byrnes had it himself. He would have scoffed at how others used it since it could have much more useful purposes. This includes sending mugshots to other police officers or even sending out photos to the public to keep an eye out for someone. Once in awhile Byrnes might have taken pictures of himself with something showing off his great achievements.]]> 2018-11-02 14:30:02 UTC https://padlet.com/skylyn_schaefer/wl6dteogujn7/wish/299805359 skylyn_schaefer https://padlet.com/skylyn_schaefer/wl6dteogujn7/wish/299805673 Byrnes designed a rouge gallery of criminals that included over 7,000 photos so he was bound to have at least a few mugshots on his phone that he would often look at in case he was tracking down a criminal. Byrnes understood the importance of these photos since he claimed he arrested 3,000 criminals with this method in New York City in a 4 year period. He also acknowledged why this was so useful, before the mugshots, when criminals become known in one town, they would just move on to the next. Now they couldn't do that because Byrnes made their photos available to the police.


Byrnes was quite boastful about his achievements, even boasting about his harsh interrogation techniques called 'the third degree.' Byrnes would have photos of the times he was featured in the newspaper for his accomplishments with law enforcement. For example, Byrnes took on noteworthy cases such as the Jim Fisk shooting in January 1872, and the Robbery of the Manhattan Savings Bank in 1878. During the Jim Fisk case, Byrnes had visited the crime scene and had taken a statement from Fisk before he died. He interrogated the assassin who killed the victim as well. This earned him notable mention on the front-page story in the New York Times  on January 7th about Fisk's deadly shooting.
Byrnes also got nationwide attention when he solved the case of the Robbery of the Manhattan Savings Bank, earning him a very admirable reputation and placing him in even more newspapers.



The last photo of him was of when he became police captain of the New York City Police Department. With phones, you have to ability to add text in a photo so there is "1892" in the corner of the picture. This would've been a very memorable day for Byrnes that he would like to remember. Everyone thought he was so talented and excellent at being a detective after solving the Robbery of the Manhattan Savings Bank so they named him the police captain after that.

Byrnes: I have a deal for you that can get you out of my "third degree" technique. You wouldn't want to suffer through that, right? So I have an easy way out of this.
Lesser Criminal: I'm listening
Bynes: Good. I will even let you off of charges if you cooperate. I think you know something that would be useful to me.
Lesser Criminal: I don't know anything, I swear!
Byrnes: Don't lie to me, you know what will happen if you don't tell me.
Lesser Criminal: You don't understand, he'll kill me if I tell you anything!
Byrnes: Trust me, anything I do to you will be far worse.
Lesser Criminal: Fine. That famous criminal you're after is planning on stealing from the bank of New York Friday at 3 A.M.
Byrnes: You will see that you've made the right decision of helping rid our city of those larger criminals. I will lift all charges off of you and leave you free as long as you don't speak of this conversation of ours. Don't text me again, this is the last time we'll text each other.

He was very devoted to his job proven by the many criminals he put in jail and the hard cases he solved. He was known as the "legendary detective" which might have certainly gone to his head. He even wrote several novels about how he fought crime, clearly indicating his dedication to police work. He managed to get the police force from 28 men to 40 men which ended up making about 3,300 arrests in 4 years.]]> 2018-11-02 14:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/skylyn_schaefer/wl6dteogujn7/wish/299806003
