Excessive Use of Force and Obstruction of Justice
Excessive Use of Force and Obstruction of Justice
Once we discuss skilled requirements, students… it covers lots of matters. Are officers required to comply with the Structure and the regulation?

AS WE CONTINUE THIS WEEK’S MATERIALS…I AM OFFERING YOU A HISTORICAL VIEW (FROM THE 1980S) OF POLICING. WE’VE COME A LONG WAY SINCE THEN, RIGHT?! SO… IT IS HELPFUL TO UNDERSTAND PERSPECTIVES. WHY DID WE EVOLVE TO WHERE WE ARE TODAY? PAY ATTENTION TO THE HISTORICAL POINTS OF VIEW…AND TRY TO VIEW IN CONTEXT – HOW WE CAME TO THE CURRENT COMMUNITY ORIENTED POLICING (COP) MODEL THAT IS THE MORE MODERN APPROACH TODAY! AS YOU LOOK THROUGH THIS MATERIAL – READ FOR COMPREHENSION IN TERMS OF WHY DECISIONS WERE MADE TO CHANGE POLICY OVER TIME. WERE THE CHANGES REACTIONARY? PROACTIVE? WHAT APPROACHES WORKED? WHAT APPROACHES CAN WE IDENTIFY AS FAILURES – OR THAT CAUSED MORE SIGNIFICANT ISSUES THAN THEY CURED? WHAT ARE YOUR CONCLUSIONS REGARDING THE MORE MODERN COPS MODEL OF POLICING? (SEE WEEKLY INSTRUCTOR INSIGHTS … OR SEARCH THE DOJ WEBSITE FOR MORE COPS INFORMATION!)
