Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Through the Targeting Violent Crime Initiative, the Bureau of Justice Assistance (BJA), Office of Justice Programs, U.S. Department of Justice, has identified numerous law enforcement agencies throughout the United States that have experienced tremendous success in combating complex crime problems plaguing their communities. A cornerstone of these agencies' efforts appears to be the incorporation of intelligence-led policing, along with other initiatives, to address their crime problems. To better understand the role of ILP in these successes, BJA requested a study of selected programs that represent a broad spectrum of agencies that are geographically diverse and varied in agency size and available resources. The purpose of the study was to identify commonalities, challenges, and best practices that may be replicated in other jurisdictions. The study was composed of case studies of selected agencies and involved delving into the nature and scope of the crime problems targeted...
Download or read book Investigation and Prevention of Financial Crime written by Petter Gottschalk and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2016-05-06 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: So long as there are weaknesses that can be exploited for gain, companies, other organizations and private individuals will be taken advantage of. This theoretically-based but hugely practical book focuses on what is generally seen as financial or economic crime: theft, fraud, manipulation, and corruption. Petter Gottschalk considers how, in some competitive environments, goals can 'legitimise' all kinds of means, and how culture can exert a role in relation to what is seen as acceptable or unacceptable behaviour by individuals. In Investigation and Prevention of Financial Crime he addresses important topics including organized crime, money laundering, cyber crime, corruption in law enforcement agencies, and whistleblowing, and provides expert advice about strategies for the use of intelligence to combat financial crime. The uniqueness of his approach to the subject lies in the way he is able to explain intelligence and intelligence processes in the wider context of knowledge and knowledge management. The numerous case studies throughout the book illustrate the 'policing' of financial crime from an intelligence, knowledge management and systems perspective. Law enforcers, lawyers, security personnel, consultants and investigators, as well as those in auditing and accountancy and with responsibilities for containing risk in banks, other financial institutions and in businesses generally, will find this an invaluable source of practical guidance. The book will also be of interest to advanced students and researchers in criminology and police science.

Download or read book Assessing the Effectiveness of the Cincinnati Police Department s Automatic License Plate Reader System Within the Framework of Intelligence led Policing and Crime Prevention Theory written by M.Murat Ozer and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study aims to explore the effectiveness of ALPR systems within the framework of intelligence-led policing in two specific ways. First, the impact of ALPR systems on policing will be analyzed through assessments of crime clearance rates (follow-up arrests). In addition to impact analysis, ALPR mobile units and traditional policing will be compared for their manpower and cost effectiveness. Second, this study will identify and recommend the most effective strategies for deployment of ALPR units based on optimal crime reduction benefits through arrests and crime prevention techniques. Using the tenets of specific theories of crime prevention, including offender search theory and crime pattern theory, this study examines whether crime prevention theory can assist researchers and police leaders to optimally allocate ALPR mobile units to prevent crime before it occurs. Based on this analysis, specific recommendations regarding deployment of ALPR units will be provided. The current study is organized into five remaining chapters. Chapter 2 begins with a brief review of policing strategies to create a basis for the distinction of policing philosophies and the organizational structure of police work. Specific attention will be given to intelligence-led policing (ILP) strategies. The underlying premises of ILP will be used to develop a framework that directs discussions regarding effective crime control models. Chapter 3 specifically focuses on ALPR as an example of an approach that furthers the goals of the data-driven, ILP model. Following a descriptive overview of ALPR technology, the scant literature regarding the effectiveness of ALPR is reviewed. Given the implications of ALPR for possible crime prevention, specific tenets of relevant crime prevention theories are reviewed in the context of how they might be utilized to improve the effectiveness of ALPR systems. Chapter 4 presents in detail the study's specific research questions and hypotheses, and provides a description of the multiple data sources used to examine these questions. The proposed analytical strategy, as well as the strengths and limitations of the study's methodology, are reviewed. The results of the proposed analyses will be Chapter 5 in the final dissertation, while the discussion and implications of these findings will comprise Chapter 6. It is anticipated that this research will bring two new insights into the policing literature. First, the evaluation of the effectiveness of data driven approaches (using ALPR units as an example) will provide a guide for police departments seeking to empirically determine the value of other data-driven techniques. Second, policing scholars have stressed that the importance of data management methods in crime prevention is generally neglected (Manning, 2001; Webb, Smith, & Laycock, 2004). This study intends to bridge this gap by focusing on strategic deployment of ALPR mobile units using crime prevention theory as a guide.
Download or read book Intelligence Led Policing written by Jerry H. Ratcliffe and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-08-21 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What is intelligence-led policing? Who came up with the idea? Where did it come from? How does it relate to other policing paradigms? What distinguishes an intelligence-led approach to crime reduction? How is it designed to have an impact on crime? Does it prevent crime? What is crime disruption? Is intelligence-led policing just for the police? These are questions asked by many police professionals, including senior officers, analysts and operational staff. Similar questions are also posed by students of policing who have witnessed the rapid emergence of intelligence-led policing from its British origins to a worldwide movement. These questions are also relevant to crime prevention practitioners and policymakers seeking long-term crime benefits. The answers to these questions are the subject of this book. This book brings the concepts, processes and practice of intelligence-led policing into focus, so that students, practitioners and scholars of policing, criminal intelligence and crime analysis can better understand the evolving theoretical and empirical dynamics of this rapidly growing paradigm. The first book of its kind, enhanced by viewpoint contributions from intelligence experts and case studies of police operations, provides a much-needed and timely in-depth synopsis of this emerging movement in a practical and accessible style.
