 Thirdly

,…after reading these articles and watching the videos, write an essay about “Police & Community” in which you make sure at a minimum you are addressing these issues:
·                  A civilian police force was created in early 1800’s London…the birth of policing as we know it today.  Sir Robert Peel, who established the police force, formulated “Nine Points of Policing.”  Also, this beginning progressed in the U.S. from Peel’s notion to some major changes in the 1960’s, ’70’s and ’80’s.  Lastly, what happened?

·                  Police leaders are now refocusing their officers, and hiring new ones, with a new emphasis.  Also, what would Sir Robert Peel think of this?
·                  What are the costs of not changing policing’s role and relationships in communities?  (Look at the Ferguson case and observations by the law enforcement leaders in the videos)
·                  What more do we in criminal justice need to do, or should we continue to do, to ensure community support and our law enforcement agency’d commitment to change. The change should be on “how we do business” sticks and isn’t just a passing “fad”, as some critics of community policing believe?

Additionally, it will be assessed based on completeness of your analysis and response to the four issues outlined above, as well as clarity of writing . Also, use observations, quotes, ideas and reaction to the articles and readings.  However, the for length is 3 to 4 pages at a minimum.
