This 8e enhances coverage of criminal procedure, officer stress and safety, intimate partner violence, brutality and extralegal police aggression with expanded glossary of key terms. To draw students into this complex subject, the authors provide many fascinating examples of policing at work.
Authors address real-world police issues and operations and also offer biographical sketches of important police leaders. The police are governed by the rules of criminal procedure. These rules outline what the police may and may not do in the processing of an individual through the criminal justice system.
This first chapter is concerned with the police and their place in the government. As members of the executive branch of the government in the United States, the police have the authority and responsibility to enforce the laws. The police are enforcing these laws in a democratic society. This position presents several conflicts for the police.
The authors also address the impact of society’s evolution on current policing practices, paying special attention to the challenges of community policing and policing in the post-9/11 era. The book has rich pedagogical features include an expanded glossary, which provides clear definitions of key terms.
