Description

This volume presents case examples of 847 common situations that police officers encounter and explains how to handle them; the text aims to serve as an operational manual for police officers in daily operations in the field in patrol, investigations, vice, traffic, and juvenile units. The book also serves as a basis for discussing operational procedures, policies, and regulations. In addition, it is intended for use in basic training classes. Field training officers can use the field guide as part of the evaluation process when interacting with probationary officers; first-line supervisors can use it to assess how officers resolve problems in terms of application of the law. The preface explains the need for police officers to arrive at a practical solution to many of the problems they confront in the field. The problems came from the research literature; a review of judicial decisions; and examples provided by line officers, supervisors, and managers. The introduction presents 12 principles to consider when forming a philosophy for policing and specifies the 7 central virtues of police officers as prudence, trust, effacement of self-interest, courage, intellectual honesty, justice, and responsibility. It also presents a law enforcement code of ethics. The book2s other chapters briefly explain common situations encountered by police officers and the appropriate way to deal with the situation. Situations involve assault and battery, animal control, anti-noise ordinances, arrest warrants, burglary, child abuse, coordination with other agencies, crime scene issues, and deadly force. Additional situations relate to evidence, extradition, family disturbances, hate crimes, hit-and-run incidents, hot pursuit, loiterers, malicious mischief, drug law offenses, and protection orders. Further situations relate to sex offenses, search and seizure, information sources, traffic law enforcement, truancy, unlawful assembly, vagrancy, wanted and missing persons, weapons, and officers injured or killed.
