Chapter 8 Summary
Chapter 8 looks at police behavior. Police behavior may be described from a universalistic perspective or a particularistic perspective. The universalistic perspective examines the ways in which police are similar. The particularistic perspective examines the way in which police differ from each other.
The universalistic perspective approaches police behavior from three perspectives. The sociological perspective emphasizes the social context in which the police are hired and trained. The psychological perspective examines the nature of the police personality. The organizational perspective is concerned with the formal and informal factors of the department.
Particularistic perspectives examine the different policing styles discovered through research. Worden (1989) suggests that there are five ways in which police differ from one another. Police are different in their view of human nature, role orientation, and attitudes toward legal and departmental restrictions. Worden also found that the beliefs and behavior of the police are influenced by their clientele. The final difference involves the relationship between management and peer group support.
Socialization theory maintains that it is the work experience and the peers that determine police behavior. The formal socialization takes place during training the new officer. The informal socialization takes places as the new officer interacts with experienced fellow officers.
Pre-dispositional theory states that the values and characteristics the officer had before employment are brought with him or her to the job. Research indicates that police have different values from the rest of society. Racial and ethnic differences, education, and police socialization does little to changes pre-dispositional values.
There have been numerous studies conducted looking at police behavior. This chapter recognizes that these studies are just as important today as they were decades ago. Westley's

The murder of Jones sent shock waves through the city of Centervale. Jason Rivers was convicted of second-degree murder and was sentenced to six years in prison.
In a strange twist of fate, the state legislature created a new law that addressed multiyear prison sentences, as the state legislature struggled to meet budgetary constraints, by releasing offenders who serve half their sentence if the offenders had no infractions within ninety days of the time they come up for release. Rivers was released after serving three and half years in prison. Unfortunately, within weeks, Rivers brutally assaulted an elderly female in an attempted robbery and his parole was revoked.
The case of Rivers has become the "poster child" for opponents of the new legislation who argue that criminal justice research shows offender recidivism rates are very high for violent offenders. On the other hand, proponents of the new legislation stand on the claim that Rivers is a victim because he did not have adequate programming available to him during his youth that would have steered him clear of criminal behavior; he should be given alternative sanctions to address his issues.

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.

Here are some notes down below to help!!
The Police Subculture
An important aspect of understanding the police is learning about the nature and content of the culture or way of life that they participate in. In this chapter we learned that culture has both material and nonmaterial aspects, which it is constantly undergoing change and that there are many commonalities, and that it is not monolithic. Applying cultural analysis to the police, we learned that they may be considered a part of a subculture, one that is somewhat (though not completely) distinct from the parent or dominant culture. We learned several important characteristics of the police subculture, specifically in the nonmaterial realm, such as ideas of separateness from the public as well as solidarity with it. The police are socialized into this culture through a variety of mechanisms before and during police academy training and during and after field training. Finally, we learned about the interaction between the dominant culture and the police subculture and the consequences of this by looking at another country: the Philippines.
Culture Defined
· Culture
. The total way of life of a society or large group of people
. Close binding relationship between society and culture
· Material Culture
. The tangible objects and inventions devised, used, and understood by a culture
· Non-material Culture
. Intangible items like language, customs, values, norms, principles, etc.
Defining the Police Subculture
· Parent or dominant culture
. Collection of people identified with most powerful group in society
· Subculture
. Associated with group in society different from dominant culture
Police Subculture Tells Officers the Following:
· How to go about their tasks
· How hard to work
· What kind of relationships to have with fellow officers
· What kind of relationships to have with other people
· How to feel about police administrators, judges, and the law
Two Specific Issues Affecting Police Subculture
· Human mortality and death
. Subculture contains pervasive death-related themes, symbols, and images
· Issue of language
. Subculture produces its own jargon and shorthand for insiders
. Keeps relevant individuals in the know and separates them from the public
Characteristics of the Police Subculture
· Shaped by a sense of self-differentiation from the public
· Defines the public in an unfriendly and unflattering manner
· Places importance on police being united and secretive
· View themselves as being different: us vs. them reinforced on both sides
· Emphasis on internal solidarity or social cohesiveness
· Emphasis on isolation
Six “Truths” of Police Subculture
· Police are the only real crime fighters.
· No one understands the nature of police work except fellow officers.
· Loyalty to colleagues counts more than anything else.
· It is impossible to win the .

MEMO

To: CITY OF COLUMBUS MAYOR ANDREW GINTHER
From:
SUBJECT: MEMO & SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE COLUMBUS, OHIO POLICE DEPARTMENT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The accompanying SWOT analysis was developed to identify levels of trust in the CPD, considering the high crime rate in Columbus, Ohio and the violence often connected to it. The youth and community interactions are highlighted as strengths and opportunities, whereas public distrust and crime are highlighted as weaknesses and threats, respectively. So, my suggestions for the CPD are to use crisis professionals in nonviolent situations (such mental health and homeless crises) and to give diversity in hiring top priority.
BACKGROUND
Crime in Columbus, Ohio, is so high that "more than 96% of the other municipalities [in Ohio] have a lower crime rate," making it one of the most dangerous cities in the country. Given the police's efforts to increase public safety, some may question the force's current standing. CPD's credibility has been damaged since the outbreak began as a result of the officers' fatally shooting of unarmed African Americans and the use of tear gas and rubber bullets on hundreds of protesters during the Black Lives Matter Movement (Wedd,2020). The U.S. Department of Justice has launched an investigation into the CPD because of these misdeeds, looking into their policies, procedures, and any racial prejudices.
SWOT ANALYSIS
After compiling the foregoing information, I developed the SWOT analysis of the CPD in the bellow attached. With the crime rate always on the rise and the public demanding action from law enforcement, one must wonder: do people still have faith in the Columbus Police Department? It is the goal of the SWOT analysis to shed light on the sources of distrust and the means by which trust can be reestablished in those sources. Youth engagement, fundraising prowess, and departmental effectiveness are all areas in which the CPD excels (Wedd,2020). There is a lot of mistrust in the public, and the reputation of executives and the workers are both falling. They have potential in attracting a more diverse workforce and gaining the trust of young people and communities. An increase in violent crime, public discontent, and reluctance on the part of the public to call the police will pose serious challenges for the Columbus Police Department.
RECOMMENDATIONS
First, in situations where police intervention is unnecessary (such as nonviolent mental health crises, suicide threats, and homeless crises), I advocate for the use of trained crisis experts rather than solely police personnel. specially at this time when public faith in law enforcement is low and crime rates are high, deploying police to areas where they are most needed and appreciated can make communities safer overall. In addition, many people think "police officers and police organizations are incapable of repairing themselves" because of policing's racist origins. Additionally, 73% of.

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.

Back Story
The murder of Jones sent shock waves through the city of Centervale. Jason Rivers was convicted of second-degree murder and was sentenced to six years in prison.
In a strange twist of fate, the state legislature created a new law that addressed multiyear prison sentences, as the state legislature struggled to meet budgetary constraints, by releasing offenders who serve half their sentence if the offenders had no infractions within ninety days of the time they come up for release. Rivers was released after serving three and half years in prison. Unfortunately, within weeks, Rivers brutally assaulted an elderly female in an attempted robbery and his parole was revoked.
The case of Rivers has become the "poster child" for opponents of the new legislation who argue that criminal justice research shows offender recidivism rates are very high for violent offenders. On the other hand, proponents of the new legislation stand on the claim that Rivers is a victim because he did not have adequate programming available to him during his youth that would have steered him clear of criminal behavior; he should be given alternative sanctions to address his issues.
Citizens of Centervale approach the mayor and other city officials with concerns about how the police department operates in Centervale. Some of the citizens want a transparent police department and more stringent background checks before officers are hired. This move comes on the heels of the formerdetective whose off-duty behavior was brought to the forefront during the murder trial of Rivers.
Citizens are concerned that crime is out of control in Centervale. Citizens are also disappointed by the new legislation that created the situation for Rivers's release because the elderly female who was victimized in the robbery was a beloved, retired, first-grade teacher in the Centervale Elementary School. Overall, citizens are showing little support for local and state law enforcement and are demonstrating little faith in the criminal justice system after the assault on the elderly woman.

The DA, the Chief of Police, and the Mayor have met on the issues raised by the citizens of Centervale.

The Police Subculture
An important aspect of understanding the police is learning about the nature and content of the culture or way of life that they participate in. In this chapter we learned that culture has both material and nonmaterial aspects, which it is constantly undergoing change and that there are many commonalities, and that it is not monolithic. Applying cultural analysis to the police, we learned that they may be considered a part of a subculture, one that is somewhat (though not completely) distinct from the parent or dominant culture. We learned several important characteristics of the police subculture, specifically in the nonmaterial realm, such as ideas of separateness from the public as well as solidarity with it. The police are socialized into this culture through a variety of mechanisms before and during police academy training and during and after field training. Finally, we learned about the interaction between the dominant culture and the police subculture and the consequences of this by looking at another country: the Philippines.
Culture Defined
· Culture
. The total way of life of a society or large group of people
. Close binding relationship between society and culture
· Material Culture
. The tangible objects and inventions devised, used, and understood by a culture
· Non-material Culture
. Intangible items like language, customs, values, norms, principles, etc.
Defining the Police Subculture
· Parent or dominant culture
. Collection of people identified with most powerful group in society
· Subculture
. Associated with group in society different from dominant culture
Police Subculture Tells Officers the Following:
· How to go about their tasks
· How hard to work
· What kind of relationships to have with fellow officers
· What kind of relationships to have with other people
· How to feel about police administrators, judges, and the law
Two Specific Issues Affecting Police Subculture
· Human mortality and death
. Subculture contains pervasive death-related themes, symbols, and images
· Issue of language
. Subculture produces its own jargon and shorthand for insiders
. Keeps relevant individuals in the know and separates them from the public
Characteristics of the Police Subculture
· Shaped by a sense of self-differentiation from the public
· Defines the public in an unfriendly and unflattering manner
· Places importance on police being united and secretive
· View themselves as being different: us vs. them reinforced on both sides
· Emphasis on internal solidarity or social cohesiveness
· Emphasis on isolation
Six “Truths” of Police Subculture
· Police are the only real crime fighters.
· No one understands the nature of police work except fellow officers.
· Loyalty to colleagues counts more than anything else.
· It is impossible to win the .

MEMO
Date: SEPTEMBER 29, 2022
To: CITY OF COLUMBUS MAYOR ANDREW GINTHER
From:
SUBJECT: MEMO & SWOT ANALYSIS OF THE COLUMBUS, OHIO POLICE DEPARTMENT
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The accompanying SWOT analysis was developed to identify levels of trust in the CPD, considering the high crime rate in Columbus, Ohio and the violence often connected to it. The youth and community interactions are highlighted as strengths and opportunities, whereas public distrust and crime are highlighted as weaknesses and threats, respectively. So, my suggestions for the CPD are to use crisis professionals in nonviolent situations (such mental health and homeless crises) and to give diversity in hiring top priority.
BACKGROUND
Crime in Columbus, Ohio, is so high that "more than 96% of the other municipalities [in Ohio] have a lower crime rate," making it one of the most dangerous cities in the country. Given the police's efforts to increase public safety, some may question the force's current standing. CPD's credibility has been damaged since the outbreak began as a result of the officers' fatally shooting of unarmed African Americans and the use of tear gas and rubber bullets on hundreds of protesters during the Black Lives Matter Movement (Wedd,2020). The U.S. Department of Justice has launched an investigation into the CPD because of these misdeeds, looking into their policies, procedures, and any racial prejudices.
SWOT ANALYSIS
After compiling the foregoing information, I developed the SWOT analysis of the CPD in the bellow attached. With the crime rate always on the rise and the public demanding action from law enforcement, one must wonder: do people still have faith in the Columbus Police Department? It is the goal of the SWOT analysis to shed light on the sources of distrust and the means by which trust can be reestablished in those sources. Youth engagement, fundraising prowess, and departmental effectiveness are all areas in which the CPD excels (Wedd,2020). There is a lot of mistrust in the public, and the reputation of executives and the workers are both falling. They have potential in attracting a more diverse workforce and gaining the trust of young people and communities. An increase in violent crime, public discontent, and reluctance on the part of the public to call the police will pose serious challenges for the Columbus Police Department.
RECOMMENDATIONS
First, in situations where police intervention is unnecessary (such as nonviolent mental health crises, suicide threats, and homeless crises), I advocate for the use of trained crisis experts rather than solely police personnel. specially at this time when public faith in law enforcement is low and crime rates are high, deploying police to areas where they are most needed and appreciated can make communities safer overall. In addition, many people think "police officers and police organizations are incapable of repairing themselves" because of policing's racist origins. Additionally, 73% of.

Module 5
Chapter 8 Summary
Chapter 8 looks at police behavior. Police behavior may be described from a universalistic perspective or a particularistic perspective. The universalistic perspective examines the ways in which police are similar. The particularistic perspective examines the way in which police differ from each other.
The universalistic perspective approaches police behavior from three perspectives. The sociological perspective emphasizes the social context in which the police are hired and trained. The psychological perspective examines the nature of the police personality. The organizational perspective is concerned with the formal and informal factors of the department.
Particularistic perspectives examine the different policing styles discovered through research. Worden (1989) suggests that there are five ways in which police differ from one another. Police are different in their view of human nature, role orientation, and attitudes toward legal and departmental restrictions. Worden also found that the beliefs and behavior of the police are influenced by their clientele. The final difference involves the relationship between management and peer group support.
Socialization theory maintains that it is the work experience and the peers that determine police behavior. The formal socialization takes place during training the new officer. The informal socialization takes places as the new officer interacts with experienced fellow officers.
Pre-dispositional theory states that the values and characteristics the officer had before employment are brought with him or her to the job. Research indicates that police have different values from the rest of society. Racial and ethnic differences, education, and police socialization does little to changes pre-dispositional values.
There have been numerous studies conducted looking at police behavior. This chapter recognizes that these studies are just as important today as they were decades ago. Westley's
Violence and the Police
(1970) discussed in-group solidarity among the police and the code of silence found to exist in policing. Skolnick's
Justice Without Trial
(1966) examined the danger in police work. Skolnick termed the person the police officer thinks is potentially dangerous the symbolic assailant.
Wilson's
Variety of Police Behavior
(1968) may be seen as the most important study of police behavior. Wilson identified three styles of policing. In the wat.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
