California Highway Patrolman Craig Peyer: How His Murder Case Affected The General Public's Trust Of Police Officers
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. In 1987, a California Highway Patrol officer was arrested for the strangulation murder of college student Cara Knott while on duty; he was convicted in 1988 after two trials. This case, which made legal history on several issues, served to add to the growing distrust the general public already held toward police officers, giving the populace reason to believe their safety was not necessarily protected under the badge. According to testimony from several women, Patrolman Peyer had a history of pulling over female drivers on a particularly dark and desolate portion of San Diego highway, at which point he engaged the women in long, rambling conversations that left many uncomfortable and scared. How are citizens – women, in particular – supposed to abide by the law when being pulled over when they fear for their very lives if they do? Is the general public justified in feeling scared and vulnerable with regard to the handful of officers whose conduct detrimentally impacts the entire force? Bibliography lists 3 sources.

California Police Officers: Certain Physique And Weight Management
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The last one hundred years have served to transition the overall duties of police officers from highly physically demanding to duties shared between physicality and technology. Typically, big, strong men were representational of the early 1900s police force when walking was the only way in which to patrol the city. The ability to dart and dash after offenders was the primary means by which police officers could ever hope to apprehend, inasmuch as that era had little more than body-to-body contact for bringing down the perpetrator. Today, the advent of technology gives police officers a tremendous advantage over their historical counterparts with devices to stop and capture the offender, but that does not preclude the need for law enforcement officers to be in peak condition. Police work may not be as physical in nature as it was back at the turn of the century, however, it still entails a significant amount of maneuvering that requires officers be as physically fit as possible. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

Case Of Jeremiah Mearday: Conflict Theory
[ send me this paper ]
6 pages in length. The case of Jeremiah Mearday, where two Chicago police officers were invested for wrongly beating an eighteen-year-old African American man, illustrates the extent to which the conflict theory has overtaken any ethical aspects of the city's approach to law enforcement. Inasmuch as this particular criminal theory espouses how one's behavior is expressed through one's "self-interests in a material world of threat and violence" (Collins, 1974, pp. 56-61), white officers James Comito and Matthew Thiel of the Grand Central District took it upon themselves to violate Mearday's civil rights without provocation.

Causes And Effects Of Fatigue In Police Officers
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page paper. Fatigue in our nation's police officers is a very serious problem. This essay explores this problem. The writer begins with newspaper headlines that illustrate the effects of sleep deprivation among police officers. The literature review is divided into two sections: the many different causes of fatigue and the effects of fatigue. These sections first discuss the issues in general and then, as they specifically relate to police officers. Law enforcement officers sleep a good deal less than the average person, leading to persistent fatigue, which, in turn, leaves these officers less able to deal with the everyday events in their lives. The last section of this essay discusses what some departments have done to combat this problem and also offers recommendations for changing this dreadful condition among our police officers. Bibliography lists 12 sources.
