During the Anglo-Saxon period, every person within the community was made responsible for ‘maintaining law and order’ according to (Villiers 2009 p.33). They had a duty to maintain the Kings peace; this resulted in citizens being able to arrest offenders if it was necessary; all of the citizens carrying out this duty were unpaid. After this, the old policing system was put in place which meant every citizen had to work as a constable for a one year period. Again the citizens were unpaid, had no…

look at what they can control. Obviously, they have limited control over how citizens act. Of course, most citizens know how they should act and that they are expected to follow the law, but that is ultimately their choice. With that said, let’s start by looking at the processes involved with being a law enforcement officer; hiring, training, field training and in-service training. It’s also important to look at their mission statement, oath, mentoring program, policies, rules of conduct,…

specific rather than using blanket-policing tactics (Glensor & Peak, 1996). The police organization must ensure their involvement in the community is fair and equable otherwise, they could lose the support of the community; in other word do not harass law-abiding…

On Monday, November 14th, 2016 from 6:00pm-10:00pm I did my ride along with the Boone Police Department. For my ride along I rode with Petey Hausley and his K-9 Simba. Before doing the ride along I had a lot of thoughts running through my mind. I was excited, however, I thought that my ride along was going to be boring, and all we were going to do was make traffic stops. I just knew I was going to fall asleep because it is Boone and nothing ever happens in Boone. I was wrong! So much happens in…

1. My main dilemma is whether or not to take the Judge’s suggestion and pose as Alex’s father. 2. It is unethical and against the law for me to pose as Alex’s parent for the express purpose of obtaining medical records that both myself and the judge have no legal right to possess. Even if I were to act upon the judge’s suggestion and find out that Alex had HIV, the evidence could not be used in court against the mother due to the manner in which it was obtained. Another dilemma is whether to…

Relationship Between Police Brutality and Race Police officers are the only individuals who are authorized to use force when performing their duties of ensuring a safe environment for community members, as long as that force is both necessary and reasonable. However, when a police officer purposely takes advantage of his or her discretion is when policing strategies and tactics began to be questioned. The phrase “police brutality” quickly became popular during the twentieth and twenty-first…

The Broken Windows Theory has produced a lot of mixed results towards the ideas that crime can be reduced in poor neighborhoods through crime reductions strategy. Wilson and Kelling (1982) who introduced the Broken Windows theory, suggested that social disorder in neighborhoods was the primary source of…

and want to be a police officer. There are many different types of police officers. Some different kinds would be a sheriff which is a public officer that is responsible for certain types of law enforcement. Then there are marshals who are the head of the police department and protect judges in a court of law, and transports prisoners. There are also constables which is a peace officer but they do not have much authority a little less than a sheriff. Last of all there is the trooper or a ranger…

Obviously if a police officer tells you to put your hands up and lay on the floor, you do it. But if when he asks you to do so and you decide to charge at him then clearly you will get treated and handled with brutal force. Even though officers of the law have to take precautions towards all civilians, there is a limit of brute force that needs to be enforced. Another one of my claims is that the African American community is being targeted by racist cops that still believe that how it was back…
