CJ110: Introduction to Law Enforcement

Police Corruption Accountability of the Police The Future of Policing in America

Project 1


Chapter 1 Project :

Determine the purpose of the police in a democracy or free society, and identify the seven principles that were established in the “Youngstown Accord.” Explain how the police would function under each principle to provide policing services to fit the ideal of each principle.

Chapter 2 Project:

Explain how understanding history can help us understand how changes in policing can and will occur, and how that knowledge can be used to aid in shaping policing in the future. What lessons have we learned throughout our history that can help us not to make the same mistakes in the future? Give specific examples of the events leading to these lessons, and the steps we need to take to prevent them from happening again.

Chapter 3 Project:

What is the reason that our policing system was designed with the primary responsibility for police protection being placed with local governments instead of the federal or state government? What are the strengths and weaknesses of this system of policing? What is the reason our policing system was initially designed to be a local responsibility in the first place? The military has rarely been used for local crime control. Why is this so? When, if ever, would the use of the military be acceptable to address local crime problems?

Chapter 4 Project:

Do you believe that law enforcement workers in the United States should be unionized? Why or why not? What impact have police unions had on American policing, and how can labor and management work together to assure the public of effective law enforcement? Has the Police Officers Bill of Rights discussed in your text provided fair protection to police officers, or are they so restrictive, they prevent management from investigating police misconduct? Why or why not?

Chapter 5 Project:

Over thirty years ago, the President’s Crime Commission recommended that all police officers have an undergraduate baccalaureate degree. When the commission made this recommendation, there was very little research on policing (either on police work or police officers). We have learned much more about policing over the past thirty years. In light of research therefore, discuss the commission’s recommendations.

Is the Crime Commission’s recommendation a good strategy for improving policing?What are the underlying assumptions of this approach?Does it improve policing? What evidence do we have that it improves policing? What evidence do we have that it has not improved policing?What is your opinion on whether education has or has not improved policing?

Chapter 6 Project:

Are police officers different from the general population? How? Why? What are the different perspectives of police behavior and personality? Which perspective do you think is most accurate? How do attitudes and behavior affect the activities of a police officer? A department? How does it affect police-community relations?

Chapter 7 Project:

In 1972, the Kansas City, Missouri Police Department experimented with different levels of police patrol. Their experiment and findings are discussed in your text. Discuss the significance of that study to American policing, how the experiment was structured, and its findings and implications. Apply your understanding of the experiment to a discussion of how you think your community should be patrolled (highly active patrol strategies versus lesser levels of patrol), and present your findings to your classmates.

Questions you should answer include:

Do the police need to respond immediately to every call for service? Describe the type of calls police should respond to immediately, and the type of calls they can respond at a later time. Finally, describe some forms of differential police responses to calls for service, and how the responses could best be used to free police officers up for directed patrol activities.Should citizens accept that fact that he police may not respond immediately to their call of a minor theft?How long should a citizen have to wait for a police officer if they see drug dealing or prostitution taking place in front of their home?Should citizens expect police to respond immediately to every call for service, no matter what that call is?

Before he left office two year ago, Governor George Ryan commuted the death sentences of 164
inmates held in Illinois prisons. Ryan had declared a moratorium on the death penalty three years earlier after 13
prisoners were exonerated due to new DNA tests and other information showing the original evidence to be unreliable.
Of the 285 death penalty cases in Illinois since capital punishment was restored 23 years ago, half have been reversed on
appeal for new trial or sentencing for a variety of reasons: incompetent defense counsel, prosecutor misconduct, flawed
trials, and the introduction of DNA evidence that exonerated the defendant. A Columbia University Law School professor
has found that as jurisdictions use the death penalty more, the more often the cases are reversed. The most mistakes in
death sentencing occur in those areas that have the most aggressive death penalty policies. This same professor found
that over a twenty year period between 1975 and 1995, more than two-thirds of death sentences were reversed by
appellate courts because of serious errors. Governor Ryan appointed a special Commission on Capital Punishment in
Illinois which delivered its report in April 2002. Among the key recommendations were videotaping all police
interrogations, restricting the use of eyewitness identifications, and better training for trial attorneys. They also
recommended that a state's attorney's decision to seek the death penalty in a case be reviewed by a state-wide
commission. The majority of the Ryan Commission members also recommended abolishing the death penalty. I want
you to consider if this were to occur in Florida. Argue your side of either abolishing or maintaining capital punishment.
Provide supporting evidence from your research in a five page APA style research paper.

Please read the following and then answer the below questions:
1.    B. K. Stroker, an Olympic swimmer, tested positive for a stimulant on the list of prohibited substances. FINA, the IF for swimming, investigated and decided to expel Stroker from her event later that day and suspended her from international competition for two years. She appealed within the IF, but her appeal was denied, so she is now appealing to the CAS for a final decision. Stroker has evidence that she did not knowingly ingest the stimulant. She avers that 30 minutes before every race she relinquishes control over her food and drink choices to her coach. Her coach admitted that in this instance he inadvertently gave Stroker a capsule of the stimulant when providing her with food and drink before the race. Stroker has a reputation for unimpeachable moral integrity and generally exemplary conduct. 

1.  Explain the appeals process in cases like these. Who has the burden of proof? (Does she have to prove she didn't deliberately take the drugs or does does CAS have to have evidence that she did take the drugs. Remember to cite the text and for your outside research requirement, look at the CAS website. 

2.  Will the CAS apply a strict liability approach to Stroker’s case, or will it decide in her favor and overturn her suspension? 

3.  If the CAS finds Stroker to bear very little of the blame, will it reduce the severity of the penalty imposed by FINA, or is proportion of blame irrelevant to CAS decisions? 

4. Do you think the NCAA certification process is structured in a way that enables it to fully accomplish what the Knight Commission intended? If not, what changes would you recommend?

Questions and Topics We Can Help You To Answer

Since September 11, 2001, US officials have been diligently working to take measures to prevent such a tragedy from ever happening again.  The FBI has significant responsibility for investigating terrorist movements in the US and apprehending potential terrorists before a tragedy occurs.  But many FBI agents are facing a dilemma they never envisioned---financial difficulties.  For example, one FBI agent, a 34 year old law school graduate and former marine captain assigned to New York City must live more than 40 miles from his office.  He cannot afford to live near his work on a salary of $60,000.  Another agent left his $80,000 year job in Miami to join the FBI, and was assigned to San Diego.  His $58,000 salary does not cover the housing expenses in that area, and thus he lives nearly two hours from his work.  In serious debt, he may not be able to afford being an FBI agent much longer.  

Many fear that these agents - particularly those who live in Boston, New York City, San Francisco, and other high cost of living areas - who are in deep debt, may become vulnerable to corruption - which could threaten national security.  At the heart of the problem is that a new FBI agent starts at a base salary of around $50,000.  After 5 years of service, an agent could make over $70,000.  But that is not enough for the high cost areas.  In Richmond, VA, for example, housing can be 50% less than in the high cost areas.  

A survey of FBI agents revealed that more than 7,700 agents indicate their financial situation is “dangerously unstable”.  Many have had to cash out their retirement accounts.  

Assume that you are the Director of the FBI.  This information has just been given to you.  What would you do?  
1.    Explain your reasoning in a thorough Position Paper.  
2.    Describe the type(s) of control that are portrayed in the case.  Give specific examples.
3.    Would some types of control be more important than others in this situation?  

Submit your paper using the Position Paper Requirements by the date listed in the syllabus.


POSITION PAPER

The Position Paper must meet the following minimum requirements:
1. The term paper must be a minimum of 5 pages in length. The term paper length does not include the title page, table of contents page, or reference page.
2. The term paper must have a title page. The title page must have the title of the term paper, the student's name, the student's address, and the name of the course. 
3. The term paper must have a table of contents. The table of contents must indicate the pages on which each portion or section of the paper begins. This will look like the table of contents of a book.
4. The term paper must have an "abstract." An abstract is a short statement of the central ideas in the term paper. The abstract must be between 25 and 40 words in length.
5. The term paper must have an introduction. The introduction identifies the topic discussed and the issues pertaining thereto. For purposes of this term paper, it is a discussion of the topic, identification of the major issues relating to the topic, and your position on the issue.
6. The "Introduction" section of the term paper might identify many issues relating to the topic. However, after the introduction elaborate only on the major issues identified.  Do not devote major time to minor issues.
7. The term paper must have a conclusion section. It should briefly summarize the issues raised in the term paper, discuss your recommendations, and note how your recommendations are or are not supported by the facts and expert opinion to which you refer in your paper.
8. There must be a reference section of the term paper, using the APA citation format. If you do not know what the APA citation format is, then look at your textbooks and see how these authors cite the works on which they relied to write their documents. If you still are confused, visit the library and ask a reference librarian to show you an APA citation style document. 
9. The term paper must rely upon relevant facts and expert opinion. The term paper must cite at least five sources:  peer-reviewed journal articles, scholarly books (excluding the course textbook), and web-sites.  A variety of sources is needed.  The APA citation format must be used. 
10. The only references you may cite are peer-reviewed, professional journal articles (e.g., articles published in Crime and Delinquency, Police Quarterly, Social Problems, American Psychological Review), law review articles, scholarly books, federal and state case law (i.e., appellate court decisions), state or federal statutes (including references to their legislative history), and government publications (e.g., Uniform Crime Reports, National Institute of Justice publications, U.S. Census data).
THIS MEANS THAT YOU SHOULD  NOT CITE NEWSPAPER OR MAGAZINE ARTICLES!!!  ALSO, DO NOT USE WIKIPEDIA, EVER, FOR ANY REASON IN AN ACADEMIC PAPER.  I WILL FAIL ANY PAPER WITH EVIDENCE OF THE USE OF WIKIPEDIA.
11. Each section of the term paper must have a separate heading and same must correspond to the page numbers noted on the Table of Contents. Placing a heading at the beginning of each section of the paper makes the discussion in the paper easier to follow. Headings also improve the paper's visual presentation. Among the headings your paper should have are: a) Abstract; b) Introduction c) Analysis and defense of your position (including an analysis of theories, concepts and facts); and d) Conclusion.
12. The term paper must use the proper grammar, spelling, and punctuation. If a direct quotation is more than two lines long, make certain you single space and indent it.

Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

George is a college student in North Carolina. Every weekend, he drives into Georgia to visit his family. George’s family is well-respected and are influential members of their community. They are wealthy enough to give George a good education and supply him with an upscale, flashy, and expensive automobile.

George is very religious, has extremely high ethics, but is also an eccentric and unique individual. He does not follow the trends in clothing or personal presentation. He has long hair, a flashy car, and wears "hippie" attire. Every time he travels through the northern counties of Georgia, he is either stopped by the Georgia Highway Patrol or the local sheriff’s office. They stop him because he fits the profile of a drug dealer.

The Georgia Highway Patrol and the local sheriff’s office have policies and procedures pertaining to drug trafficking. The highway that George is traveling is known as a “drug pipeline.”

Do you think these repetitive stops are reasonable? Why or why not?
What would be the reasoning behind the stops? Explain.
If these stops are based on policy and procedure in your state, what would the major in the Georgia Highway Patrol and the sheriff of the local county say to officers who did not stop George? Explain.
If the patrol had a field training officer (FTO), and you were a new recruit, how would you react if the FTO said “just skip him”?
On his last trip home, George passed a large city, and the highway patrol stopped him. This officer carried tools and a battery-powered screwdriver. He proceeded to take George’s car apart, piece by piece. When he did not find drugs, this officer just drove off, leaving George stranded. It was found that this officer just received a commendation for the highest amount of drug busts on this highway.

Should he be put up as an example of a good leader to follow for other drug officers? Why or why not? Explain your rationale.
Support your answers with scholarly sources and research into the laws and policies of your state.
