Sheriff Jamye Noel went on to explain that all of the inmates knew the cameras were there, but on 60 DaysIn, you will notice that sometimes they forget that they are there and just about doing what they always would do. Of course, the inmates also had no idea that regular citizens were in there with them for 60 days.

Police in America began as the night watch system that protected cities from crime, fire, and disorder. Of course early policing was influenced by the British, and so was American Law which derived from English common law. This would also form a correlation to American policing policies that diverged from the English’s Magna Carta and as well the French. The French established a centralized government that entailed men to take an oath of loyalty. The police in America started as night watch groups, then employment changed to police officers being political appointed which was very corrupted, but throughout the years things changed again to serve the public. Instead of a political selected police force that earns it’s pay through bribes and

Joe Arpaio was elected sheriff of Maricopa County, Arizona from 1993 to 2016. He had different programs that captured the public and media around the world. He had the tent city jail, the posse, the chain gang, and the pink underwear program and many more. Arpaio's chain gangs contribute thousands of dollars of free labor to the community. The pink underwear program came about when he noticed inmates were stealing the jailhouse white boxers, which was costing him over 40,000 dollars a year.

I chose to interview Officer Michael Alway of the Rocklin Police Department. I selected him because of the rapport I had with him from him being a former instructor at the community college I went to. This rapport made it more comfortable to ask more complicated questions. I originally made contact with him through my csus.edu email account. In a few days, he was able to get back to me and we set an appointment date via email. I initially send him the interview questions, so he would know what I was going to ask and have an answer or idea on how to answer it. The first impression was good, and I noticed that he was wearing a body camera. Since, my paper was on the use of force that is where the topic began with the questions.

First off the does seem that the sheriff was in the wrong in the demotion of the deputy from both a legal and a subsequent policy violation. It appears that the sheriff may have violated the deputies first amendment rights, although a preexisting department policy forbidding holding or running for office by the deputy may protect the sheriff from liability in this instance. What would have been a better scenario is that the sheriffs department had and independent inquiry on this matter to see if the deputy violated any law or internal policy, however the sheriff being an elected official simply looks as though he is firing the deputy out of retribution thus possibly weakening his his public image. Not only does it seem that the sheriff may have violated the deputies first amendment rights but may have also violated his freedom of religion, not only this but the United States is a secularist democracy with very touted ideals of the separation of both the church and state from one another.

Against the expansion of the county jail, Canyon County Sheriff Kieran Donahue stated, "overcrowding of the jail is a law enforcement problem. I disagree.

When discussing leadership within the law enforcement profession is it vital to take the human factors into consideration. There are multiple human factors that the law enforcement leaders must take note of, such as, family issues, financial issues, stress, health, and morale. These human factors that play an important role for law enforcement in general can impact morale, officer safety and the public perception. When addressing the human factors, “Law enforcement leaders should challenge themselves and their employees to increase safety margins by focusing on human factors. By doing so, they will improve proactive communication at their level of influence and develop an organizational culture that values safety and wellness” (Bone, D., Normore,
