As the supervisor of the internal affairs division, you have been charged with reviewing the police department's procedures for investigating officer misconduct. Major challenges facing police executives today include addressing the true causes of misconduct rather than quick fixes, and overcoming the "code of silence" within the department. Organizational culture, which is established by leadership, also plays a role, as the culture can encourage or discourage misconduct and accountability. Your recommendations should explore how to establish a culture of accountability and address systemic issues rather than just surface problems.

Question #1:
TENSION BETWEEN THE MEANS AND THE ENDS:
Officers will at some point in their careers encounter situations where the good ends cannot be achieved by legal ends. If they break the law to pursue good ends, they will have corrupted themselves by breaking the law they were sworn to uphold. Passionate officers are those so committed to good ends that they ignore just means. The three protagonists are LAPD officers. Edmund Exley is a "straight arrow" who informs on other officers in a police brutality scandal. He's a politician and a ladder-climber first-and-foremost. This earns the antagonism of Wendell “Bud" White, an intimidating enforcer with a personal fixation on men who abuse women. Between the two of them is Jack Vincennes, who acts as more of a celebrity than a cop who is a technical advisor on a police television show called Badge of Honor (similar to the real life show Dragnet) and provides tips to a scandal magazine. What moral dilemmas do you see develop in the film? Identify each character’s passions and how should they be tempered with a real perspective?

Question #2:
THE BLUE CODE OF SILENCE:
The Blue Code of Silence or Wall of Silence is an unwritten rule among police officers in the United States not to report on a colleague's errors, misconducts, or crimes. If questioned about an incident of misconduct involving another officer (e.g. during the course of an official inquiry), while following the code, the officer being questioned would claim ignorance of another officer's wrongdoing. It represents an effort to control “ends,” the outcome of events; ends cannot be controlled. The code is considered to be police corruption and misconduct. Officers who follow the code are unable to report fellow officers who participate in corruption due to the unwritten laws of their "police family;" this is depicted throughout the move. When officers are hired, they are already on the crime-control side of the continuum. Important referents in their environment encourage behavior that is crime-control oriented and reinforce temptations for noble cause corruption. From an organizational point of view, something has to go wrong for line officers to move back towards a balanced perspective. In your opinion, which scene(s) depicts this concept most strongly and why? Please provide two examples.

Slide 1
The role of law enforcement and police is to enforce the law and to provide community assistance.
Policing has had a rich and interesting history.
Vigilantism was represented as groups of residents whom were essentially authorized by the community, to enforce the law.
As vigilantism grew, members became a little bit better organized.
Vigilantes did take the law into their own hands by punishing and killing individuals suspected of crimes.
In the early 1700s, slave patrols represented the first publicly funded city police departments in the United States.
Their objective was to keep slaves from running away.
There were various slave codes in place that prohibited slaves from educating themselves and running away from their owners.
Sir Robert Peel was the first to establish an organized police department in England.
This was in response to the growing crime problem in London, which eventually led to the establishment of The London Metropolitan Police Department in 1829.
Policing developed in England and the United States followed suit shortly thereafter, with departments being increasingly controlled by government.
The United States adopted London's Police Department objectives by stopping crime through preventative patrols (patrolling the streets and keeping general order).
This idea of preventative patrol remains consistent in police activity today.
During the Political era of the 1840s through the1920s, the US began to see an influx of organized police departments.
The police’s role was to control order, provide various social services, and assist those in need.
Notwithstanding however, training was not commonplace.
During the Professional era beginning in the 1920s and extending through the 1970s, policing began to undergo major reform at all levels of government.
The objective was to encourage the police to be free from political influence.
The availability of new technology such as the telephone, also impacted policing.
During this time, the US began to see the implementation of the Uniform Crime Report (UCR), which allowed police departments to provide annual reports on the extent of crime in America.
We also saw the development of the 911 system during this era.
This was an avenue for citizens to begin to report crime more efficiently.
The Community Policing era began in the 1970s and has extended through to today.
Community policing focuses on summoning community members in assisting with the solving of crime.
The objective of community policing is preventative, in that the attempt is to stop crimes before they occur.
This requires that police officers build positive relationships with community members.
Police departments are made up of sworn personnel and non-sworn personnel.
Sworn personnel are known as peace officers, while non-sworn personnel are regarded as civilians.
There are various agencies for law enforcement.

Follow-up
The father of modern policing, Sir Robert Peel, believed that police required moral legitimacy sourced from the “affection and cooperation of the public.” Volunteer ‘night watchmen’ and later, paid ‘constables’ were typically from the local community. These officers had long-standing personal relationships with the people they served. Intimacy reinforced by walking beats allowed police to become a known go to resource in the community.
Unfortunately, too much of modern policing has shifted away from this model. While the technology innovation of the two-way radio, 9-1-1 dispatch and patrol cars help police do their jobs over a much larger coverage area, it is also true that those innovations have further isolated police from communities they serve.
The future of policing may just need to have police agencies focus heavily on three reforms: 1) connect more officers to the local communities they serve; 2) ensure a diverse force that reflect their communities; 3) leverage technology that connect police to communities. When police agencies blend technology with a community focus, amazing things can happen.
With new technologies emerging all the time and a new normal when it comes to funding, how should the police proceed?

Lab 2b. Application: Lipid Solubility of Membranes
Adapted from Cell Biology Laboratory Manual – by Dr. William H. Heidcamp, Gustavus Adolphus College
Beet cells contain a high concentration of the red pigment anthocyanin. When exposed to a compound that dissolves the cell membranes, the anthocyanin will leak out of the cells and cause a red color to occur in the surrounding media. Alcohols, based on their chemical properties have the ability to enter into and disrupt the plasma membrane. In this lab you will measure the effectiveness of different types and concentrations of alcohols on their ability to penetrate and disrupt the plasma membrane.
Materials
· Fresh beets
·
Solution
s of the following alcohols:
· 22M Methanol
· 8.5M Ethanol
· 3.0M Propanol
· 1:2 and 1:4 dilutions of each alcohol above
· Razor blades
· Depression slides
· Stopwatch/timer
· Microscope
1. Cut thin slices of a beet so that they can be placed on a microscope depression slide and viewed with the lowest power (4X). When cutting the beet ensure that there are no ragged edges, that no piece has any of the outer skin on it, all of the pieces are the same size, and the pieces do not dry out. After making the cuts, rinse the beet pieces several times using a small amount of water. Immediately drain off the water. This will wash off any pigment released during the cutting process.
2. While watching the edge of the sliced beet, add 50ul of each of the alcohols below to the slide (only one at a time), until the beet section is submerged. Be careful not to allow the alcohol to flow off the slide.
3. Immediately begin to time the dissolution of the beet cell membranes. ...

INTRODUCTION
The job of leading a local law enforcement agency has always been a complex one,
requiring skills in mastering complex policy issues, developing organizational structures and
systems, managing employees, and addressing the various and sometimes conflicting
expectations of the community, political leaders, agency employees, and the news media.
1
Many experienced police chiefs are saying that the 21
st
Century has brought a trend
toward even greater complexity in their jobs. New types of technology are revolutionizing how
police departments operate, and often the challenge is to make sound decisions about how to
integrate multiple forms of technology. The widespread adoption of community policing has
resulted in community members having higher expectations of accountability and efficiency in
their police departments. National and international economic conditions have strained local
police budgets. The workforce is changing in ways that affect police recruiting and retention.
These are just a few of the challenges that must be understood and constructively managed by
today’s chief executives in policing.
In fact, perhaps the greatest job qualification for today’s police executives is the ability
to recognize and respond to the swiftly changing issues and opportunities facing them. Police
chiefs often speak of their role as being “agents of change.” Never before has managing change
been a larger element of their jobs.
Today’s police departments appear to be succeeding, at least by the measure of crime
rates. Violent crime rates nationwide are half what they were two decades ago, and many

Assignment Details
Because crime is one of the more appealing themes in popular culture, the public receives a skewed version of crime.
The public’s knowledge may be particularly lacking with regard to the entire field of criminology, specifically the following:
The differences between blue-collar and white-collar crime
The general perception of the incidence of crime in the United States
You are asked, as the public relations representative of your police department, to provide an information session on the field of criminology. The expectation is to make sure that the public understands the facts of law enforcement and to differentiate between the fictions presented in different media outlets.
Please answer the questions below, and complete the requirements for your paper of 3
–
4 pages. As you answer each question, complete the following:
Provide support or evidence that will enhance and empirically prove your answers.
Academic criminal justice articles or real-life criminal justice findings that are found in journals or other academic sources must be used in supporting your answers.
Please use APA format for all cited sources, including your reference page.
Remember when answering the questions below that there is a big difference between the public sector and the private sector. The public sector of criminal justice includes being a police officer, a crime scene technician, a federal law enforcement officer, and so on. The private sector may include you being an investigator for a company, a private investigator, a security manager for a large company, a security manager for an amusement park or a sports team, and so on.
The questions are as follows:
Explain the differences between
criminologists
and
criminalists
and their respective areas of study. How are the criminologists and criminalists used in the public sector (working within a governmental body)? How are they used in the private sector (in businesses and not in law enforcement)?
If you were a criminalist, what type of job or career would you want in the private sector? In the public sector? Explain why you would want each of these careers.
If you were a criminologist, what type of job or career would you want in the private sector? In the public sector? Explain why you would want each of these careers.
Discuss the differences between white-collar crime and blue-collar crime. Which types of crime are measured by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) in the
Uniform Crime Reports
?
Which of the two (blue-collar or white-collar crime) is heavily focused on in popular culture through the media?
What is the difference between a Part-I index crime and a Part-II index crime as measured in the
Uniform Crime Reports
of the FBI?
Which Part-I crimes would you classify as violent crimes, and which would you classify as property crimes?

What do Travis and Stone suggest as the "new professionalism," and do you agree?
I believe that the over all suggestion from Travis and Stone is a revamp of how we approach the work place as Law Enforcement. There is a professional standard that almost all work places should use, in this case Travis and Stone have set rules and guidelines for Law Enforcement. Some of these guidelines are also words you hear in the popular news media such as Legitimacy, Transparency, and Accountability etc.
The current American public demands such action now a days compared to the long and drawn out investigations of the past. This has helped bridge many gaps with the American public that often when not given answers will conclude their own, that or be driven by popular new media outlets to dread the worst.
I agree that Law Enforcement must always be a standard in professionalism, times change and so does that standard, so I agree that Law Enforcement must chance with it.
What is the promise of "Democratic Policing Reform"?
The term “Policing Reform,” has been used by many different politicians throughout time in a effort to oversee police reform in a political manner. The issue is that when you hear these terms from most politicians there is no plan that follows these baseless claims, so as a civilians your hearing talking points with no merit, with no execution. There are many agencies throughout the United States that have over watch groups and government monitoring groups that over see operations, often after an incident.
The goal of this policing is that by reforming police departm ...

The Uses and Abuses of Police Discretion:
Toward Harm Reduction Policing
Katherine Beckett*
INTRODUCTION
Although discretion is an unavoidable and ubiquitous feature of police
work, it is also the subject of significant controversy and debate. In this
essay, I first provide a brief overview of the history and evolution of police
discretion from the 1960s to today and explain how its exercise has been
impacted in recent decades by the war on drugs and the adoption of “broken
windows policing.” These policy initiatives encouraged a more muscular po-
lice response to low-level offending and had important consequences, in-
cluding the flooding of U.S. prisons and jails and the disproportionate
incarceration of people of color. Although many of those targeted in the
campaigns against drugs and disorder do not pose a significant threat to pub-
lic safety, many do contend with multiple challenges such as homelessness,
addiction, and mental illness, and, as a result, cycle repeatedly into and out
of jail. Incarceration, including short-term jail spells, often has deleterious
and destabilizing effects, which increase the likelihood that arrest and incar-
ceration will continue to occur with some regularity.
In the second half of this essay, I argue that since police discretion
cannot be eradicated, and the destructive nature of mass incarceration is in-
creasingly well-understood, municipalities would be well-advised to imple-
ment alternatives to the war on drugs and broken windows policing. Ideally,
these alternative approaches would encourage the police to respond to “dis-
orderly” behaviors that do not pose a significant public safety problem in
ways that reduce the harm that results from low-level crimes and from crimi-
nal justice involvement itself. To illustrate what such a policy framework
might look like, I describe Seattle’s Law Enforcement Assisted Diversion
(LEAD) Program, which relies on police discretion to channel people sus-
pected of minor forms of criminal wrongdoing out of the criminal justice
system and toward services with the aim of reducing human suffering at
both the individual and community levels. I conclude that programs like
LEAD that use harm reduction principles to guide the exercise of police
discretion enable municipalities to respond to low-level crimes in a way that
alleviates rather than exacerbates individual and community suffering asso-
ciated with those behaviors.

- 2. SHORTENED VERSION OF TITLE HERE 2 Abstract Historically, police executives have sought to distance themselves from police misconduct as a form of political survival. Rather than addressing the true causes, they seek quick fixes. Quick fixes serve as a catalyst for police misconduct and encourage only a narrow investigative focus, as opposed to exploring systemic problems. As the supervisor of the internal affairs division within your police department, the chief has charged you with the responsibility of reviewing the department's procedures regarding the investigation, determination, and recommended strategies that are related to officer misconduct. o What do you see as the major challenges facing police executives in the 21st century? Explain in detail.
