Law enforcement techniques

In order for law enforcement agencies to meet these ever arduous pressures and demands from the community they constantly strive for new strategies. In response to the pressure two methods have been developed and have been gaining popularity since the mid 80’s and they are community oriented policing (COP) and problem-oriented policing (POP).

Community policing emphasizes crime prevention and partnerships with the community. With its many goals, one of which is reducing crime and the fear of crime.

Over the years, The National Registry of Exonerations has found that police officers and prosecutors are becoming more cooperative with exonerations. BACKGROUND In 1989 law enforcement actively participated in twenty exonerations, two being DNA and eighteen being Non-DNA; in 2013 that number has risen to eighty- seven, eighteen being DNA and sixty-nine being Non-DNA (National Registry of Exonerations). This increased number

I believe that it’s very important for law enforcement agencies to focus on community policing. When officers have good relationships with the communities that they serve, it makes solving crimes more manageable and develops more of an intimate bond between the agency and community. Today, there has been a lot of focus on how police officers interact with minority communities. Regardless of the challenges that law enforcement personnel face when policing in minority communities, agencies have continued

This is also because there is legislation in the Criminal Code of Canada which permits lethal force (sections 25-30), specifically section 25(1) which states that “everyone who is required or authorized by law to do anything in the administration or enforcement of the law (b) as a peace officer or public safety officer” (4).
