...determined the need for private agencies which try to fill the gap between the need and supply of officers. Fear and concern about the safety of the citizens, protection of the property and more important the prevention of crime caused the growth of privatized security agencies. With most of the best officers recruited to the better paying jobs with Federal Government and with decrease of new recruits willing to “serve and protect” new economic opportunity arose for the private sector to fill in the gap. I will attempt to cover the legal, ethical, managerial, economic issues, evaluate the daily practices of both professions, and what the future may hold for them. (Stephens, 2009). In comparison, private policing is more adapt at the protection of personal and corporate interests whereas public police is more concerned and equipped to enforce the regulations of the judicial system and interest of the public. Described as passive policing, private policing is more proactive rather than reactive in its crime prevention efforts. The opposite to what public policing provides, which is more reactive in nature thank private policing. Position requirements for private policing vary and depend on the type of work to perform and state laws. There are few at best, statutes or laws, giving the private security industry any form of governmentally granted rights or powers to legitimize its existence. (Stephens, 2009). The high standards required by public policing is not regulated, accreditation...

...Public Policing vs. Private Security Public Policing vs. Private Security It is in my estimation, public policing stands for more in society than private security because of the funding provided. The duties and responsibilities to enforce the law and maintain order in society is that of public policing. Agencies paid to perform the protective and lost-prevention type duties not handled by police officers are the private security agencies. Society needs to know the pros and cons for each agency to ensure that agency will protect him or her for the correct reasons. In comparing public policing and private security for society, most individuals need to see the different branches and what each agency offers to ensure the best for the situation. Most agencies leave a good review for society and attempt to provide information on public locations for society to view to gain more knowledge about each system and organization. There are several distinct differences between public policing and private security. Public policing does the following: 1) maintain order, 2) performs community service, 3) detect crime, 4) handle crime, and 5) prevent crime, 6) traffic control, 7) stop and questioning an individual, 8) search/seize individuals and their personal belongings, 9) conduct interrogations, and 10) arrest an individual. Private security does the following paid duties: 1) serves as an escort, 2) patrol housing and business areas, 3) serves as guards at gates, 4) transport valuables...

...Public Policing Versus Private Security Trina Burkett AJS/502 March 19, 2012 Dr. Pamela Knothe Public Policing Versus Private Security When comparing public policing to private security there are several similarities and differences between the two roles. Private security is paid by a private company or agency, whereas public policing is paid by government salaries and by tax payers. Public police officers have the authority to enforce laws and protect and serve society. Private security officers are paid to protect private property and personnel. Most of the duties that public policing and private security officers perform are similar. The services that both officers perform are to achieve similar goals, to prevent, and deter crimes. Public policing and private security officers serve as leaders while performing their duties. Public policing and private security officers have a positive impact on the criminal justice system. The impact that both of these companies have on the criminal justice system could be enhanced if both would team up, work together, and look toward the future. Other topics that will be discussed are the importance of a comprehensive security plan and its key components. There are several differences between public policing and private security. Even though both public policing and private security perform the same type of work, private security protects organizations and personnel. Public policing has the authority to enforce the laws...

...The People vs The Police: Building the Trust In Franklin Foer’s “How Soccer Explains the World: An Unlikely Theory of Globalization,” Foer describes a division between pro-soccer Americans and anti-soccer Americans. In Kwame Anthony Appiah’s “Moral Disagreement,” Appiah examines the ways that different cultural groups perceive themselves as opposed to others. In today’s society, these different cultural groups we all belong to, tend to see themselves in terms of an “us versus them” mentality. Overcoming or at least understanding the differences we share with opposing cultural groups is crucial for the sake of peaceful human interaction and existence. Since the beginning of history, the public's attitude towards police has been mostly negative. Due to failed community policing attempts, the misuse of police authority, and the media negatively influencing both cultural groups painting a lousy picture on both spectrums, this has been a constant battle worldwide. Through effective neighborhood policing and learning to trust the police, America could be a sharpened more secure place to live. First, because of failed community policing attempts in America, there has been a constant battle for the people and the police to view each other as equals and overcome the differences we share. Community policing is the newest terminology for law enforcement. It is a federally funded initiative built on the premise that everyone should be working together to reduce the fear of crime. The major...

...Community Based Policing DeVry University Prof. B. Griffin April 5, 2012 Introduction “Community institutions are the first line of defense against order and crime…”Thus it is essential that the police work closely with all facets of the community to identify concerns and to find the most effective solutions. This is the essence of community policing (Kelling, 1988). Community policing is a value system in which the ultimate goal is working cooperatively with individual citizens, groups of citizens, and both public and private organizations to identify and resolve issues which potentially affect the livability of specific neighborhoods, and areas within the city (Cassady, 2012). Community-based police departments recognizes that that the police cannot effectively deal with such issues alone, and must partner with others who share a mutual responsibility for resolving problems. Community policing stresses prevention, early identification, and timely intervention to prevent issues before they become a problem. Community policing is both a philosophy (a way of thinking) and an organizational strategy (a way to carry out the philosophy) that allows the police and the community to work together in new ways to solve problems of crime, disorder and safety issues to improve the quality of life for everyone in that community (Wilkerson, 2006). Community policing consists of two core components, community partnership and problem solving which is the foundations of a successful...

...Title registration for a review proposal: Broken Windows Policing to Reduce Crime in Neighborhoods Submitted to the Coordinating Group of: _X Crime and Justice __ Education __ Social Welfare __ Other Plans to co-register: _X No __ Yes __ Cochrane __ Other __ Maybe TITLE OF THE REVIEW Broken Windows Policing to Reduce Crime in Neighborhoods BACKGROUND Briefly describe and define the problem Crime policy scholars, primarily James Q. Wilson and George L. Kelling, and practitioners, such as Los Angeles Police Chief William J. Bratton, have argued for years that when police pay attention to minor offenses—such as aggressive panhandling, prostitution, and graffiti—they can reduce fear, strengthen communities, and prevent serious crime (Bratton & Kelling, 2006; Wilson & Kelling, 1982). Spurred by claims of large declines in serious crime after the approach was adopted in New York City, dealing with physical and social disorder, or “fixing broken windows,” has become a central element of crime prevention strategies adopted by many American police departments (Kelling & Coles, 1996; Sousa & Kelling, 2006). In their seminal “broken windows” article, Wilson and Kelling (1982) argue that social incivilities (e.g., loitering, public drinking, and prostitution) and physical incivilities (e.g., vacant lots, trash, and abandoned buildings) cause residents and workers in a neighborhood to be fearful. Fear causes many stable families to move out of the neighborhood and the remaining residents...

...The Relationship between Privet and Public Police William Propst CJS/ 250 12/08/2013 Michael Crumpler The Relationship between Privet and Public Police When it comes down to it both privet and public police are important to society as a whole. They are both provided security and protection, whether it’s to a company or to the public at large. They are also both responsible for deterring crime in their own areas. Now the relationship between the two has been the topic of a lot of discussions over the years, some good but mostly it is viewed in a negative light. These are some of the topics that I will be looking into farther in this paper. As law enforcement agencies are charge with protecting the public, you could say that they focus more on arrest then they do on preventing the crime from happening in the first place. This would be wrong. After taking my policing class I know that there are models set in place that are for preventing crime as well as arresting criminals. Now we have to keep in mind that there are three different levels to law enforcement agencies. They range from local counties all the way up to state and federal levels. Communities are dependent of these agencies to conduct and perform many different roles and functions. Now it is important to note that all law enforcement agencies perform the same basic duties and responsibilities, which are, maintain law and order, provide community assistance, and investigate crimes. There are also agencies...

...Constitutional Policing CRJ201 June 28, 2015 Title of Your Essay The 4th amendment of the United States Constitution states “The right of people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable search and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched and the persons or things seized.” I believe that many cases have been brought to the United States Supreme Court define the constitutionality of the 4th amendment. I strongly believe that this is a fundamental for all law enforcement officers, and officers of the court to follow and strictly adhere to while they are excluding the duties of there occupation. In the case of Weeks vs. United States, police officers entered the home of Freemont Weeks and seized lottery papers which were used for his conviction in court. This seizure of papers was done without a lawful search warrant and done so in violation of the 4th amendment which was the main issue of this case. The evidence seized was used against Mr. Weeks in court and ultimately Mr. Weeks was convicted and sentenced to time in prison. There were several laws that the courts used in determining the outcome of this petition including Boyd vs. United States. “As was there shown, it took its origin in the determination of the framers of the Amendments to the Federal Constitution to provide for that instrument...

...Riley v. California: Effect on Proactive Policing Author Note Abstract Racial profiling has a long history in the United States. One that has routes in our culture, history, and psyche that have been established over the years by differences in social status, heritage, and demographics. A lot has been learned, evolved, addressed amidst ever changing views and necessitated tolerances. Racial profiling is unjust but in a time of heighten needs for security, law enforcement scrutiny, and improved policing standards and technology it is a misnomer and often quickly used to characterize an agencies or officers action. Riley v. California: Effect on Proactive Policing Racial profiling is a longstanding and deeply troubling national problem despite claims that the United States has entered a “post-racial era.” It occurs every day, in cities and towns across the country, when law enforcement and private security target people of color for humiliating and often frightening detentions, interrogations, and searches without evidence of criminal activity and based on perceived race, ethnicity, national origin, or religion. Racial profiling is patently illegal, violating the U.S. Constitution’s core promises of equal protection under the law to all and freedom from unreasonable searches and seizures. In today’s world we live in a very social media driven manner. The media can sway people’s attitudes towards a certain direction depending on the circumstances. Racial Profiling...

...First Line Supervisor /OIC Training It should be noted that being chosen as an OIC candidate is a crucial step in your career development.

You will be expected to be a leader even when you are not in charge The OIC position is meant to develop your leadership skills and will assist you in obtaining your goal of becoming a ranking member of the management team By becoming an OIC you should not assume that you will automatically progress to the next rank.
