Hello:
This is the 787th Blog post for “FutureofPolicing.blog”
That is a lot of material and I would like to invite you to spend some time and explore to see what is available here. You can easily search (in the search field) your interests in Criminal Justice (especially Policing) and see if there are any earlier posts that you may find interesting.
This blog was made for 2 major purposes:
First is to promote discussion of Criminal Justice ideas. Currently I comment very little compared to what I see on most blogs. In the future I hope to comment more but writing takes time and so does finding and posting interesting material. I have a few “article type” papers I need to complete that I hope to post and I would be interested in feedback and discussion. These articles are months away from completion and I not sure how I want to present them.
The second purpose is to post material that is used by police departments, County Government, use in policy making, and by decision makers and is not commonly seen in college classrooms. This is the type of resources that impact day to day operations and are not discussed in academia. Of course I also seek out government studies and academic material (when freely available) to post. I think that this type of material is not know beyond its local municipality. A common belief is Policing is local, however, this doesn’t mean that a municipality and the issues it’s police department faces is 100% unique from all the police departments across the nation. This is why I believe it is useful to study how other police departments operate and respond to adversity, face issues, etc.
