103rd Precinct: Community Policing Model

Human relations refer to the personal environment that people create among themselves, such as; they get built out of respect and likeness for each other. Public relations refer to the kind of rapport created by those in authority to their subjects. Community relations refer to the acts that corporations and entities perform to the surrounding person voluntarily (Goffman, 2009). Examples of the three kinds of connections are:

City Heights East is divided by many different ethnicities. There is 54.3% Hispanic, 20.9% Asian, 15% Black, 7.3% White, 2.2% mixed, and 0.3% other. With this data we can see that there is is range of different ethnicities and not one fully overrides other. This is a diverse community with some great cultures throughout. With this comes crime. With a total of about 30 assaults in the past year, there needs to be a sense of community rather than a sense of territory. Within this sections it will review the cost of living, the employment rates, the school’s, and the community organization. These are all important when looking at a specific crime and how to improve it within the community.

Another black man has been shot and killed by police officers this time in Houston, Texas. Alva Braziel is now dead after waving a gun at police and then being shot allegedly 10 times. Hollywood Life shared the details about what happened to Alva. This is just two days after numerous police officers were shot in Dallas. Alva Braziel was allegedly waving his gun in the streets before getting shot by police officers. There is no word at this time about what caused Alva to act this way.

A black man within military training skills stalks law enforcement officers and ignored the people around him as he shot anyone wearing a badge or showing representation that they were a cop. Louisiana State Police Colonel Mike Edmond said, “These officers were intentionally targeted and assassinated. It was a calculated act.” Three of the officers that were killed was 32-year-old Montrell Jackson, 41-year-old Matthew Gerald, and 45-year-old Brad Garafola. Long carried two rifles and a pistol as he parked his car parked at a gas station and store nearby. Before Long can get any nearer to the police, a SWAT unit took down the gunman with a different tactic in which Dabadie called it, “a helluva shot.” Dabadie pointed at the map saying, “After

On 1/16/17 at 0225 hours my partner, Officer Thebeau #8402, and I were working patrol assigned to unit 3A11. We responded to a radio call of “shots fired” in the area of 814 N. Garfield Ave. The comments of the call stated, a 19 year old female was shot in the hand.

On September 27, 2016 an African American man was shot and killed by El Cajon police. A woman whose is sister of the man who was shot called the police indicating her brother was “not acting himself”. The man whose name Is Alfred Olango was walking into traffic in the 800 block Broadway before police officers found him behind a restaurant around 2:11pm. Olango ignored the instructions from the police officers multiple times, then [quote] “concealed his hand in his pant pocket,” Davis said [end of quote]. Olango would pace back and forth then [quote] “rapidly drew an object from his front pants pockets, placed both hands together on it and extended it rapidly toward one officer, taking what appeared to be a shooting stance,” the chief said [end

The facts of the case are that Stockley and his workmate, while in the course of duty in late 2011 chased and crashed into the vehicle belonging to the deceased and later, the accused shot him five times to which he died on the spot, the matter occurred in Walnut Park West, Missouri. The officer was subsequently charged with the offence of first-degree matter to which he denied and stated that he acted in self-defense.

Community policing is a philosophy. It uses organizational strategies that support the use of partnerships and problem solving techniques to address issues of public safety.Community-oriented policing is collaboration between the community, organizations within the community, and the police that identify and solve community problems. Police officers work with the community to help solve problems related to crime, fear of crime, social and physical disorder, and neighborhood conditions. They do this to enhance the safety and quality of neighborhoods. Officers spend time in these neighborhoods getting to know the residents and business owners by talking to them about the problems that the community is facing or individuals who are causing problems. They are responsible for reducing crime in their beats.

Law-abiding citizens of the United States follow the rule of law and respect one another. Unfortunately, confrontations between minority groups and the police departments have turned deadly. The proven irresponsibility of publishing misinformation by the media without first verifying their sources has caused rioting and destruction in these communities. The current murderous assaults of law-enforcement personnel throughout the United States and the criminal actions of some law-enforcement personnel against minorities, and others, created a gulf between the police and the communities they serve. The communities, government, and police have an agenda that they believe is a pathway to establish a respectful, lawful, understanding between law-enforcement and the communities they serve. Empathy requires the understanding and respect of the problems, feelings, and conditions endured by others. The proposed agenda may begin the process of understanding.

On Saturday March 9th, 2013 a young teenager by the name of Kimani Gray was shot and killed by two police officers in Brooklyn, New York. Kimani was reported by police to have been with a group of men late at night in front of a house when the Brooklyn South Anti-Crime Patrol arrived to question them. The sixteen year old boy was said to have been acting suspicious and went to grab something from his waist. Police said that Kimani had pointed a .38-caliber revolver at them. Two of the patrollers reacted with having eleven shots fired at

In spite of the fact that the United States still exceeds many other industrialized nations in overall crime and violent crime, it has been effective in decreasing its crime rate, particularly during the 1990s. While some coalitions have attributed this positive development to changes in socio-demographic trends and rigid enforcement approaches, one coalition highlights the success of the community-oriented policing and problem-oriented policing in eradicating the root causes of crime (Stephens, 2003). While I don’t believe that community oriented policing in the sole cause of decreased crime rates I do believe that it has its positive and negative sides.

Even though most departments have some community policing in their mission statement community partnership(arguably the most important part) is the least used in many departments(Maguire, Katz, 2002). Many departments inflate their involvement in community policing especially since the COPS(community oriented policing services) give federal grants to departments who use this. Actually billions have been spent on community policing and millions on researching it but no definitive evidence of its success on crime has been made by the early 21st century(Weisburd and Eck 2004). It can be very difficult to truly understand how certain cities really implement community policing since it really comes down to each individual police officer service. If the actual police officer on an individual level don 't internalize community policing than it doesn 't matter how much training and programs the department has they aren 't truly implementing it on the ground without the helpe of each officer, this includes managers, policies of the department, chiefs, and supervisors. The different members of the hierarchy must reinforce community policing training into the culture for full implementation of community policing.

Community policing is strongly enforced based off consent of the neighborhoods involving the needs, strategies, and outcomes of the communities involved (Brogden, 2013, pg. 2). COP has become the primary need for reform in communities with rising crime rates, helping bring security, but not eliminating the increase in crime (Brogden, 2013, pg. 2). Although, community policing holds

Community Oriented Policing is a philosophy that combines traditional aspects of law enforcements that promotes organizational strategies, which support the use of community partnership and problem-solving techniques, that address conditions that gives rise to public safety issues such as crime, social disorder, and fear of crime. In the beginning of the 1980s, some police departments were experimenting with an innovative approach of policing called community oriented policing. With the innovative approach, departments were trying to engage their community members with the police to come together to address recurring crime and disorder issues through problem-solving efforts. In addition to this, twenty-five years later community policing is

The term community is a more than geographic boundaries. It is a group of people
