Additionally, the paper discusses the jurisdictional, regulatory, and legal obligations of the department, when and how long has the agency existed, how jurisdictional boundaries changed over time, and the influence of technology, politics, and economic problems.

In 1798, President John Adams passed the Alien and Sedition Acts containing three parts: the Alien, Sedition, and Naturalization Acts. The Alien Act allowed the president to deport any immigrant that he found dangerous to the nation; the Sedition Act made it a crime to criticize the government; and the Naturalization Act lengthened the citizenship process. These acts were repealed by 1802 due to their negative impacts and influences on society. The Alien and Sedition Acts left an impact on the nation through the deprivation of American rights—such as the first amendment rights of freedom of speech and freedom of press— leading to protests that rocked the nation. These policies created a gap between the government and the people, destroying

In this paper, a senior federal agent has been assigned as the division training officer, who is responsible for providing and coordinating training for divisional agents and the local police officers that have been assigned to work on a federal task force. I am assisting in the preparation of the curriculum for an upcoming two week program, which will focus on various types of searches authorized by federal law, and what is legally necessary to support these searches. Also, the process by which a search warrant is sought and issued pertaining to

From the genesis of our country’s founding, we’ve constantly discovered different ways of governing the nation, the states, and the people. The Kentucky Resolution of 1798, was a response to the mind numbing decision of the federal government to pass the Alien and Sedition Acts. With this set of acts in place, Jefferson felt that it disregarded the Constitution and gave too much power to the federal government. And to that regard, I must say that I fully agree with the Resolutions as they have the cordial intentions to keep the United States a place for the people.

The issue in this case is whether under Tennessee Code Annotated § 44-8-413, our client, Kevin Gates, can be held responsible for his neighbor’s dog bite injuries, depending on his knowledge of the potentially “dangerous propensities” of his three dogs.

Agencies previously used subpoenas to obtain these records. The problem with this was that there was a court process that had to be gone through before records could be obtained. Now, the agencies only need to obtain a search warrant for this, greatly speeding up their process.

As time progressed, a broad utility evolved for UCR data, and law enforcement expanded its capabilities to supply crime information. As of the late 1970s, the law enforcement community wanted a more thorough evaluative study of UCR and made a recommendation to expanded and enhance the UCR Program to meet law enforcement needs into the 21st century. Following the study "Blueprint for the Future of the Uniform Crime Reporting Program" was developed and new guidelines for Uniform Crime Reports were formulated. The National Incident-Based Reporting System (NIBRS) was implemented to meet these

The NIBRS requires, “All law enforcement agencies to submit at least a brief account of each criminal offenses and the resulting arrests.”(Regoli, Hewitt & Delisi 2009). “For each offense that is known to the local law enforcement agencies, information within the categories of incident, property, victim, offender, and arrestee are gathered. In total information for 3 data elements within 22 crime categories as gathered.” (Cole, Smith &DeJong, 2012).

Waterloo Regional Police Service (WRPS) was working with seven other police services organizations on the Common Information Management Systems (CIMS) project. The main objective of CIMS project was to share information between the police services organizations to identify crime trends and to operate in an informed and proactive manner. CIMS was an extension/expansion of earlier police information systems and it was third upgrade of the systems for WRPS.

Although confidentiality and consent is important during any research and interview; when conducting survey research, it is very important to make sure all information obtained is handled with the highest level of privacy unless given the proper consent to share information. Research surveys are targeted towards officers and the feelings they may have towards the position they’re in. This type of surveys gives us an in depth view of what it’s like to be a law enforcement professional such as that of a police officer.

Over the last several years, most police departments have been facing numerous financial challenges. The main reason is law enforcement agencies are expected to do more with less and the stagnant economy. The combination of these factors has been placing pressure on many departments to begin imposing budget cuts. Evidence of this can be seen with a survey that was conducted by the University of North Carolina. They found that 67% of police departments made some kind of budget cuts for 2011. The most severe reductions were occurring in large police departments such as Los Angeles, Atlanta and Detroit. (Delfem, 2011, pp. 199 - 205) This is illustrating one of the most pressing issues affecting a wide variety of police departments across the country. To fully understand what is happening requires: examining the situation, how they are able to interact with other agencies (i.e. state / federal) and recommending the way this relationship can be improved. Together, these elements will offer specific insights about how police departments can effectively address this problem.
