Sir Robert Peel was the person who recommended that agencies should follow the military model but had also set forth nine principles on which the police force would be based on.These principles serve as a friendship or a contract that binds the community and the police together so they can both be on the same page. These principles to this day are being followed. Some more than others but there is still some form of involvement or a hint of each principle being followed by our police. One of the principles that Peel came up with was that, “The basic mission for which the police exist is to prevent crime and disorder.” This principle is still being followed today as the police do everything they can to help the prevention of crime to take over.
