Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience Types of Police Systems 1. Common – also known as Anglo-American justice.

Civil – also known as Continental justice or Romano-Germanic justice. A strong inquisitorial system where less right is granted to the accused, and the written law is taken as gospel and subject to little interpretation. 3. Socialist – also known as Marxist-Leninist justice. It is primarily characterized by administrative law, where non-legal officials make most of the decisions. 4. Islamic – also known as Muslim or Arabic justice. All their procedures and practices from interpretation of the Koran. Religion plays an important role in Islamic systems. Dr. Ramil M.

Alertness to Crime Theory – nation develops, people's alertness to crime is heightened. They report more crime to police and demand the police to become more effective in solving crime problems. 2. Economic or Migration Theory – crime everywhere is the result of unrestrained migration and overpopulation in urban areas such as ghettos and slums. 3. Opportunity Theory – that along with higher standards of living, victims become more careless of their belongings, and opportunities for committing crime multiply. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 4. Demographic Theory – when a greater number of children are being born. these baby booms grow up, delinquent subcultures develop out of the adolescent identity crisis. 5.

Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience A. United State of America (USA) 1. The U.S. Police Department = Divided into four broad categories: federal, state, county and municipal agencies. =Each branch of law enforcement has been created to enforce a specific set of laws within a specific geographical area. =Authority to respond to a crime is two-fold. First, one must determine which government unit prohibits the acts. Second, one must look at the place (venue) where the criminal act occurred. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 2. Federal Law Enforcement Agencies Police officers that work for the national government are generally called federal police officers. These police officers enforce criminal federal laws that are passed by the United States Congress and signed into law by the president. They have the authority to arrest anyone who commits violation of federal criminal laws within the specific area they are hired to protect. Police agencies that hire federal police officers include the White House Police, Capital Police, Supreme Court Police, and Park Police. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) this agency is not a police agency, instead it investigates matters involving violations of federal law including civil rights violations, espionage, treason, bank robbery of federally insured institution, serious crimes that crosses state lines, and terrorism. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 3. Other Federal Agencies a. Secret Service Two primary missions: = Protecting all living current and former U.S. president and their families = Controlling counterfeiting b. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, And Explosives = Assist in controlling the sale of untaxed liquor and cigarettes, illegal firearms, and explosives. c. Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) = The federal agency that enforces federal drug laws. = Agents of the DEA primarily carry out their responsibilities by assisting local and state authorities in investigating illegal drug use and drug trafficking. They also work with foreign governments to reduce the number of illegal drugs entering the United States, as well as operate independent investigations into drug crime. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 4. State Law Enforcement Agencies = All 50 states have state police agencies. = Two models of state police agencies; 1. Single State Police Department that is responsible for both traffic and criminal investigative responsibilities. 2. Two separate state police agencies. One agency is called the Highway Patrol. The Highway Patrol monitors state turnpikes and highways. The second state level policing agency is assigned the responsibility for state level criminal investigations. = In addition, state law enforcement may be responsible for running state law enforcement training academies, providing emergency medical services, maintaining a crime lab, and providing other services that are needed to support local level law enforcement efforts. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 5. County Law Enforcement Agencies = The third level of policing and typically involves an elected sheriff and appointed deputies. = The duty of the sheriff’s department varies according to the size and population of the county. Nearly all sheriffs’ office provides basic law enforcement services to areas outside incorporated municipalities. = In addition, sheriffs’ departments are usually responsible for county jail or detention facility. Although some states still maintain separate local detention facilities in every city and town. = Finally, the sheriff’s department is typically assigned duties associated with court services. These duties include serving civil court summons, providing court security, providing courthouse security, and dealing with criminal warrants. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 6. Municipal Law Enforcement Agencies = Municipal law enforcement agencies are those police departments created to serve an incorporated city, town, village or borough. The primary reason municipalities establish a police department is to maintain order. = Municipal police officers are expected to: 1. Identify criminal offenders and criminal activity and where appropriate, apprehend offenders and participate in subsequent court proceedings. 2. Reduce the opportunities for the commission of some crimes through preventive patrol and other measures. 3. Aid individuals who are in danger of physical harm. 4. Protect constitutional guarantees. 5. Facilitate the movement of people and vehicles. 6. Assist those who cannot care for themselves. 7. Resolve conflict. 8. Identify problems that are potentially serious law enforcement and governmental problems. 9. Create and maintain a feeling of security in the community. 10. Promote and preserve civil order. 11.

May not have been convicted of driving while intoxicated and must hold a valid license for at least three years prior to application and have a driving record. 8. Applicants should have no criminal conviction, although some misdemeanor crimes may bar applicants from a law enforcement position. 9. All applicants are expected to be free from drug use, be of good moral character, and have personal integrity. 10. No applicant should have any history of criminal or improper conduct, have a poor employment record, or have an irresponsible financial history. 11. Generally, applicants should at least have a GED equivalency or a high school diploma, however, some departments, such as that in Dallas, Texas, are requiring 60 or more hours of completed college coursework. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 8. Probation Period = When a candidate receives an appointment to the police department, the candidate must then successfully complete recruit training, which can last from several months to more than a year, depending on the training requirements of the police department. Once the recruit has successfully completed the training academy, the recruit then usually receives field training under the supervision of seasoned officers. Upon the successful completion of the field training, the officer is considered eligible to be on their own. = Police recruits are on probation during the entire period of training and usually are on probation for a period of time after they have completed their training. The length of time that a recruit serves on probation varies from department to department. It should be noted that officers will not generally be eligible for a promotion until the probationary period is successfully completed. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience = It is important that police officer candidates understand that the goal of probationary period is to evaluate their ability to perform on the job and to fit into the department. Probies may be dismissed during the probationary period without cause and no reason needs to be provided. Damaging a police vehicle, a single incident of excessive use of force, violating the chain of command, or making negative comments about superior officers may all demonstrate that the probie is not the right fit for a department’s needs. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 9. Opportunities for Promotion = Opportunities for promotion vary from police department to police department. The size of the Department plays an important role in opportunities. Larger departments are likely to have greater opportunities for advancement and a wider variety of areas of specialization available to officers. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 10. Opportunities for Women and Minorities = Since the 1970s the opportunities for women and minorities in policing have increased substantially as law enforcement agencies have begun to recognize importance of ensuring that police force they hire resembles the public it polices. Today, police departments do not have a sufficient number of women and minorities applying for policing to meet that goal. For this reason, many police departments are actively recruiting women and minorities because they would like the opportunity to hire them. = In today’s policing environment, both women and racial minorities who meet the criteria and qualifications to be police officers have unlimited opportunities. Dr. Ramil M. Las-igan, CCS REO CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW (3TC CRIMINOLOGY REVIEW ACADEMY) Effectiveness, Efficiency & Convenience 11. Affirmative Action/EEOC = Affirmative Action is a part of the civil rights laws that has been implemented through the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission’s attempt to implement programs established by the congress. EEOC is an independent federal agency that oversees federal civil rights laws. EEOC is the agency that investigates cases of discrimination and takes action to eliminate discrimination when they locate it. Affirmative Action policies and federal law make it a crime to discriminate against any person because of race, national origin, religion, gender, age or sexual orientation. This means that a person cannot be discriminated against in hiring process, promotional process, or in wage determination. Dr. Ramil M.

German Police System = POLICING in Germany is constitutionally vested in the states. = Each of the sixteen states (laender) of Germany has its own police organization. Police forces for each laender are controlled by the INTERIOR MINISTRY. Within each laender are several kinds of police such as; = Schutzpolizei (Schupo) which is equivalent to municipal police. They are the first to arrive at the crime scene of most crimes and handle all general law enforcement and simple investigation. Dr. Ramil M.

Canada: Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) = The RCMP was formed in 1920 by the merger of the Royal Northwest Mounted Police (RNWMP, founded 1873) with the Dominion Police (founded 1868). The former was originally named the North-West Mounted Police (NWMP), and was given the Royal prefix by King Edward VII in 1904. Much of the present-day organization's symbolism has been inherited from its days as the NWMP, including the distinctive Red Serge uniform, paramilitary heritage, and mythos as a frontier force. = As the national police force of Canada, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police is primarily responsible for enforcing federal laws throughout Canada, while general law and order including the enforcement of the Criminal Code and applicable provincial legislation is constitutionally the responsibility of the provinces and territories. This responsibility is sometimes further delegated to municipalities which can form their own municipal police departments. This is common in the largest cities. Dr. Ramil M.

This was done to allow greater grass- roots involvement in decision-making and also allows the RCMP to invest more resources into frontline services. = The RCMP divides the country into divisions for command purposes. In general, each division is coterminous with a province (for example, C Division is Quebec). The province of Ontario, however, is divided into two divisions: A Division (Ottawa) and O Division (rest of the province). There is one additional division – Depot Division, which is the RCMP Academy at Regina, Saskatchewan, and the Police Dog Service Training Centre at Bowden, Alberta. The RCMP headquarters are located in Ottawa, Ontario. = The RCMP employs three categories of employees to handle the wide scope of its responsibilities: Regular Members (Police Officers), Civilian Members and Public Service Employees.
