Book excerpt: POLICING FOR PROFIT presents a startling, yet timely exposE demonstrating that some U.S. metropolitan police departments are more interested in running a business than being a presence on the streets "to protect and serve"--and they're getting away with it--measuring success by both ticket and arrest "productivity." But they are not alone! Such police department revenue-producing ventures can only be achieved in partnership with greedy courts and unscrupulous proprietary interests. To make matters worse, in Florida, state law actually incentivized "policing for profit." Beginning in 1999, police officers in municipalities must, by law, receive "extra" pension benefits if increasing auto insurance is paid in their community, a feat easily accomplished by writing more traffic tickets! The undeniable and compelling evidence put forward proves clandestine ticket and arrest quotas--as covertly practiced in cities such as Tampa, Florida--result in fraud, while creating a wealth transfer from the public to police, courts, state government, auto insurers, and private vendors for courts, jails and prisons. The remedy is public awareness and demand for improved accountability systems to prevent this fraudulent abuse within the so-called justice system. The story shines a light on policing for profit tactics, including ticket quotas, arrest quotas, kangaroo courts, how quotas can result in fraud, how proprietary interests profit from tickets and arrests, and the lack of external oversight of law enforcement agencies and courts, as illustrated in the federal court case Orban versus the City of Tampa.
Download or read book Policing for Profit written by Eric D. Blumenson and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During the 25 years of its existence, the War on Drugs has transformed the criminal justice system, to the point where the imperatives of drug law enforcement now drive law enforcement and corrections policies in counterproductive ways. One significant impetus for this transformation has been the enactment of forfeiture laws which allow law enforcement agencies to keep the lion's share of the drug-related assets they seize. This financial incentive has left many law enforcement agencies dependent on drug law enforcement to meet their budgetary requirements. In this article we present a legal and empirical analysis of these laws and their consequences. The empirical data show that the corruption of law enforcement priorities and wholesale miscarriages of justice can be attributed to the operation of these incentives, and also help explain why the drug war continues with such heavy emphasis on law enforcement and incarceration. The legal analysis questions the constitutionality of the forfeiture funding scheme under the due process clause, the appropriations clause, and the separation of powers.
