This creates a situation that allows police officers discretion in the way they think about what they see and how they handle those with whom they come in contact. There has been an effort by the research community to examine issues concerning how police act and respond in general and what police do specifically when they interact with citizens. A conspicuous void in the research effort has been the lack of attention paid to the process by which police officers form suspicion about a suspect whether or not a formal intervention such as a stop was made. Officers in Savannah, Georgia were observed and debriefed after they became suspicious about an individual or vehicle. Observers accompanied officers on 132, 8-hour shifts, during
COMMUNITY EXPECTATIONS OF YORK REGIONAL POLICE AS IT RELATES TO COST EFFECTIVE SOLUTIONS TO ALTERNATE SERVICE DELIVERY NOW AND INTO THE FUTURE This essay discusses options and opportunities for York Regional Police in planning for effective, efficient, and sustainable police service delivery, while ensuring community expectations are met in a changing economic and political climate. The opportunities discussed will incorporate a wide array of research from all policing sectors, including the local political landscape, Ontario Association of Police Services Boards and the expertise of stakeholder reviews on relevant Canadian, American and Global research perspectives. Within the research reviewed, several common themes and options are presented for consideration and implementation while managing community expectations.
My fieldwork project focuses on criminal justice system specificity on the Kenosha Sheriff’s department. I approach this project with an ethnographic approach which is the scientific description of the customs of individual peoples and cultures and how this will impact the community. Personal values and cultural difference impact the interaction with other and their biases. The fieldwork focuses on the cultural difference, discretion, and discrimination of police and their interaction with the police. Here is some history on the Sheriff’s department is the third largest law enforcement agency in the state of Wisconsin and operates the third largest jail facility in the state and the department meaning of “Pride Dedication Professionalism”
In the book Fahrenheit 451 By Ray bradbury the predictions from the author werent all The way correct but he was extremely close. Fahrenheit 451 centers around a man name “Guy Montag”.
Considering the high crime in census tract 19 and the mission statement of the Boise Police Department (BPD) which is, “To Protect, Serve and Lead our Community to a Safer Tomorrow”, tapping into law enforcement resources is vital to reduce crime in the area. The Ada County sheriff office is within walking distance to the eastern and south-central parts of the tract with the BPD being a short drive from the area. The sheriff’s office is roughly a mile from tract 19’s border and is about a 20-minute walk. BPD is a little further at 2.5 miles from the tract 19 border which is about a 10-minute drive or a 50-minute walk. The BPD highlight 3 programs as effective crime prevention tools for communities.
Discretion is the power of officials to choose among multiple possible courses of action; whether or not to give someone a speeding ticket, or give them a warning. Discretion is vital to the police. It is impossible for the police to arrest ever individual who commits a crime; instead, the police rely on their ability to use discretion: handing out tickets, warnings, etc. Discretion is important, but there are situations in which the administration has to limit the officers use of discretion. East Valley’s police department will implement policies that will require officers to make an arrest in certain situations.
A.) The social problem that the article “When Schooling Meets Policing” is focusing on is the negative issues police officers have on students and their education when police officers are in the school. B.) The big problem that is emphasized in the article is what police officers are doing to young children when the children misbehave. One issue that is emphasized in the article is when at water balloon fight at a high school went down as a senior prank, eight students were arrested and two dozen police officers came to the campus. Students are being arrested for spit balls, temper tantrums, and other childish things that kids are expected to do at that age. In the past the education system would discipline the students with detention or something similar, but now the police officers are actually arresting students for very small things.
This training should incorporate culture, diversity, mental illness training, youth development, bias and racism”(Z. Cheney-Rice). The police needs to be trained more in other areas where they can develop a true connection with the community. Cops are more trained in other areas where they are taught to use and a handle the correct way, but when it is all set and done it is important that on top of this training they more training in which they can solve problems in better ways. This is like dealing with a rude customer, the worker is trained so that they handle the situation in the calmest and best way possible and the cops should get more time of this type of training in order to get the best results. This will then further on lead to less excessive force being
Sir Robert Peel, the founder of the Metropolitan Police in 1829, made the first decision to not routinely arm the police form in a political strategy to gain the acceptance of the highly sceptical parliament with an aversion to continental, paramilitary policing. This notion of unarmed policing has been upheld over numerous decades and British policing is still seen as an unarmed agency until comparatively recent, where the service has had access indirectly or directly to firearms and other weapons (Miller, 1977). When an authorised firearms officer makes use of a firearms weapon by deliberately pointing it or by discharging the weapon, that will constitute a use of force for which the officer is both legally and organisationally accountable.
The United states and their police forces are doing the best they can to help keep the peace, but from bad publicity and less community policing they can barely hold on. Also anti-police movements of citizens who disagree with the force officer's use during arrests makes the officer's concern for safety even greater. However,the media will only report the negative sides of police and their duties they do everyday. Next the police are targeted by people and have been in the 60s and more recently in the past couple months.
“Profiling has taken a turn for the worst” Race shouldn’t be what moves police to believe that one group is more crime driven than another. And it shouldn’t be an argument that racial profiling by law enforcement is a real issue because it is and it must be dealt with now or never or this problem with continue into the future and most likely get worse over time. Over the course of my research I’ve found two key points that make my argument valid. Point one being that police are moved to police in there ways because of past Jim Crow laws. Point two is based on statistical facts about how many different races get stopped or frisked by police on average.
Social media can be a standout amongst the best routes for Charities to construct supporters, share examples of success stores, help with donations, urge individuals to join up to campaigns or enlist as volunteers (Lawrance, 2013).
