A minimum of 1,000 words(total assignment) and threescholarly sources. The references does not count towards the word count!!
If you ONLY do the minimum word count, then it is considered “average” work, which is a “C”; therefore, it is best to make sure you cover the topics well and not just do enough to meet the minimum number of words.
1. You are the police chief of a jurisdiction in a state that recently passed a law in response to concerns about possible racial profiling that requires police agencies to document the race and/or ethnicity of both pedestrians and vehicle occupants stopped for any reason. You know from the experience of other police agencies that the data will almost certainly indicate disproportionate stops of minorities. Prepare a press release that explains why you expect disproportionality in the data, and what you intend to do to distinguish inappropriate discrimination from disproportionality expected from legitimate deployment practices.
3.What is meant by a crime-specific strategy? Of the types of specificity that are suggested, which might have the greatest import?
4.What is the role of community policing specialists in a Compstat approach to crime control? Should the role include leadership in initiating problem-oriented interventions?
Answer preview
Our nation continues to have disparities both in the activities that the various groups of people engage in. The level of these engagements is also different such that the number of individuals available to the police for searches will be determined by the daily activities that we engage in. In most of the circumstances the minorities mostly the black Americans are involved in the informal sectors of the economy and will be available for searches in most of the hours. It is unfortunate that other groups mostly the white Americans continue to dominate in the formal sectors of the economy with less time for searches. The disproportionality may also occur as a result of factors such as cultural values of social groupings and dressing which is a basic tool of suspicion from the law enforcement officials.
