Police Patrol Lab Report

Decent Essays
If I were the Police Cheif in Kansas City during the time of the experiment I would make many changes. I believe that within the experiment there should have been alot more preventative patrol because it is the most efficent way to patrol. By having preventative patrol it makes it easier to catch crimes befor they happen verses random patrol. I feel as if there were more preventative patrol within the experiment there would have been better results come out of the experiment. I believe that preventative control with marked or even unmarked cars would be very beneficial the officers would know exactly where to patrol and be at the right place at the right time. Random patrol can be very benefical to, the only down side about random patrol is

    Goals The goal of the lab was to investigate the properties and structure of an unidentified compound that was discovered in a local landfill. The group was called in to help determine the chemical and physical properties of the compound so we can let the people of the town know so it can be taken care of properly with or without further precautions to be taken. Another goal of this project was to devise the synthesis of the unknown compound. Experimental Design In order to determine the correct identity of our unknown compound, we first started with a couple preliminary tests, which include physical state and smell.…

    An unknown sample #18 was obtained on November 6, 2017. The sample came in a glass test tube with a cotton swab that contain the unknown sample. To find the identity of the unknown sample, we had to conduct several biochemical tests to eliminate and narrow down possible organisms that fit the biochemical description to accurately identify our unknown organism of interest. These biochemical tests provided insight on the physical color retention of our unknown sample, and through’s the unknown organism’s ability to break down tested compounds to determine if it had the corresponding enzyme that would allow it to do so. The testing of unknown organisms to accurately discover its identity is crucial in the field of health science.…

The experiment was done more that forty years ago. Our society as a whole constantly changes. These changes require that law enforcement change to accommodate the needs of society (Reidy-Hall L.T., 2017).…

    One important study that was completed on law enforcement practices was the Kansas City Experiment. This experiment was the first large-scale scientific study of law enforcement practices, it was focused on the practice of preventive patrol, and it was sponsored by the Police Foundation (Schmalleger, 2015). In this experiment, areas of Kansas City were separated into three parts. The first part consisted of no change in patrol, the second area doubled the patrol available, and the third part tried a completely different approach to patrolling, which consisted of no patrolling at all (Schmalleger, 2015). The results of this experiment were unexpected.…

What she means are the ones that are murdering people, stealing, and performing violent crimes. She believes the law enforcement in the United States needs to focus on criminals that are doing much more to warm people. “Such a law could set back safety efforts and give criminal records to millions of responsible adults.”…

    The lab instructor issued out a test tube labeled with letter ‘I’, which consisted of two unknown bacteria, Gram-positive or Gram-negative that were streaked from a pure culture. Sterile techniques were followed while performing precise instructions as stated in the referenced Laboratory Manual. Example 1: The first procedure performed was done by isolating a pure culture from the mixture onto a solid Trypticase soy agar (TSA) media. Sterile technique was done by flaming the loop until it turned red to ensure that there were no current bacteria on the loop avoiding contamination followed by rapidly flaming the neck of the test tube to prevent the entry and contamination of unwanted microbes.…
