There is an endless amount of careers in criminal justice. Out of that endless amount, I chose the career of a small town police officer. Ever since the ending of last year, I’ve wanted to be a police officer. I pictured it as what better way to learn about the career I want to pursue than to research and write a paper about it. Small town police officers are the backbone of any community. They worry about everyone who comes in or goes out of that area. This paper will identify the requirements and prerequisites to become a small town police officer, small town police training and education, major duties and responsibilities, and salary and promotion opportunities.

1. The results of the Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment were really surprising to the public and the police. What do you think were the main reasons why different levels of motorized patrol failed to have any impact on crime or public perception? (p. 93)

1. Explain and discuss the Introduction to the New York City Police Department based in the School Safety Agent Student Guide.

On Tuesday, September 29, 2015, I, Officer B. McMillon, #135, of the Mansfield ISD Police Department was on assignment at Legacy High School located at 1263 N. Main in Mansfield, Texas 76063. While leaving the 2nd floor AP’s office, I observed Smith, Taylor W/F, D.O.B. 09101999 slap Wells, Sydney W/F, D.O.B 08291999 in her face and they begin to engage in a physical altercation.

The International Association of Chiefs of Police Research Center Board of executives, Smaller Law Enforcement Agencies Technical Assistance Program developed a New Police Chief Mentoring Project (IACP, 2013). Supported by the Bureau of Justice Assistance, U.S. Department of Justice, the focus is to make available official support to newer law enforcement leaders in the first three years of appointment, who are serving in smaller populations less than 50,000 citizens. As cities expand geographically and demographically, police departments face additional challenges determining efficient and effective ways to make use of officers and resources (Roberts, 2000).

The Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) is one of the unknown but still a agency with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS). FLETC is exactly what you would think it is. They have a mission to train those who protect our homeland, which mainly included Federal Agencies, including the ones within the DHS and other executive branches. Their vision it to through partnerships, to train excellence. Their four core values are : Respect, Integrity, Service, and Excellence (flect.gov).

Criminal justice majors have defined militarization of police forces as “the process whereby civilian police increasingly draw from, and pattern themselves around, the tenets of militarism and the military model” (Greenwald, 2014). Whereas, Kraska and Kappeler (1997) defined militarization as “a set of beliefs and values that stress the use of force and domination as appropriate means to solve problems and gain political power, while glorifying the tools to accomplish this [with] military power, hardware, and technology”. Militarization of police involves the use of military equipment and tactics by law enforcement officers (Balko, 2013), including such things as the use of armored personnel carriers, assault rifles, submachine guns, flashbang grenades, grenade launchers, sniper rifles, SWAT teams, etc. (Wood, 2014).

First off, thank you for your time reading and considering this letter. I am submitting this letter requesting to be considered for the Gulfport Police Department’s SWAT Sniper Team. I have been employed with The Gulfport Police Department from 04/11/2016 to 02/2017. I am currently assigned to the Patrol Division on squad one night’s. During my time on this shift, I have experienced great leadership from two of my supervisors that are currently serving on the Gulfport Police Department SWAT Team. Being under the leadership of these supervisors has helped me to see the pride and professionalism there is in the members that are serving on The Gulfport Police Department’s SWAT Team. After seeing this, I would love to have the opportunity to

Chapter 5 is the most important chapter for anyone who joins the law enforcement world. The chapter goes in depth of the policing legal aspects that anyone in the criminal justice system must know. Warren court was introduced as the ideology of offenders being protected by their individual rights. Warren Court believes it is best for the law enforcement to conduct their work by enforcing the law, however; the warren court believes individual rights is an important value. Furthermore, the chapter discusses the 4th Amendment’s definition and clauses. However, the consequence for law enforcement was not presented in the 4th Amendment. Many rules and doctrines were created to limit the corruption of law enforcement of over abusing the 4th Amendment.

The Kansas City Police experiment began in October 1972 and continued through 1973. This experiment was conducted by the Kansas police department and evaluated by the Police Foundation. Patrols were varied within 15 police beats. Routine preventive patrol was eliminated in five beats, labeled “reactive” beats (meaning officers entered these areas only in response to calls from residents). Normal, routine patrol was maintained in five “control” beats. In five “proactive” beats, patrol was intensified by two to three times the norm (Foundation, 2016).

What is the definition of COP? “Citizen on Patrol” Do cops really understand the definition of COP? The quote: “to protect and to serve” became the official motto of the LAPD police academy in 1963; the motto was printed on every police vehicle in Los Angeles. Fast forward to March 3, 1991, the brutal beating of Rodney King by white LAPD officers. The beating was captured on video tape in all of its horror, and the cops were still acquitted! Who are the cops protecting? Who are the cops serving? It clearly isn’t the community the police are serving or protecting. Instead, of saving lives, they are taking lives. Perhaps, you would think citizens would need protection from the car jackers, armed robbers and gang members. This scenario has happened to several acquaintances. If you drive an expensive luxury car in Los Angeles, like a Maserati, Bentley or Range Rover; nine times out of ten you will be stopped by the police and asked: is this your car? I need to see your registration, license and insurance. The cops automatically assume the car is stolen, or you acquired the vehicle thru some nefarious or illegal actions. A Black person can’t possibly afford or deserve a car like this. Unfortunately, the citizens of the communities need protection from their so called police. Who is going to protect us from the rogue, racist and scary cop? Certainly, not the cop car dash cam, video recorder or camera phone! Indeed, cops have a dangerous job; they risk their lives every day

On July 6, 2016 at 1600 hours, I, Officer Anzaldua #B2 was dispatched to the Alamo Area Regional Law Enforcement Academy, located at 12625 Wetmore Road, Suite 436, in response to damaged property and obscene material within public view. Upon arrival time at 1604, I, Officer Anzaldua made contact with Robledo, Jose, M., the facilitator/instructor at the Alamo Area Regional Law Enforcement Academy. At 1210 hours, Robledo showed a tour of the building to the Converse Police Department. Robledo stated while preparing activities, he came inside the apartment at approximately 1520 and stated that cadets had set up sexual acts in the bedroom of the apartment. Robledo stated he doesn't know who did it, but he suspects at least 10 unknown cadets from

Throughout the fraud New Castle police was released Davis with the $22000 unsecured bail. This case is associated with the government as well as patients that are under low income. There are many types of sanctions consider with this fraud according to the government acts. The investigation is still going on by the New Castel police and according to the Delaware Department of Justice’s Medicaid Fraud Control the charges of suspects are recognized innocent until the suspects verified

Minorities are majority of the time racial profiled by police everywhere they go. Many times it can be from driving down the highways to shopping around town. Many police will look at the color of the skin and automatic feel like minorities are criminal and up to something. Most police has become complacent with stereotyping and targeting majority minorities. In today’s society, this kind of events is very popular in the news. This society can be much better if the color of your skin was not a target.
