The purpose of the State Patrol ticket processing system is to record driver violations, to keep records of the fines paid by drivers when they plead guilty or are found guilty of moving violations by the courts, and to notify the court that a warrant for arrest should be issued when such fines are not paid in a timely manner. A separate State Patrol system records accidents and verification of financial responsibility (insurance). Yet a third system produces driving record reports from the ticket and accident records for insurance companies. Finally, a fourth system issues, renews, or suspends driver’s licenses. These four systems are obviously integrated in that they share access to the same database, but otherwise, they are operated separately by different departments of the State Patrol. State Patrol operations (what the officers do) are entirely separate.

The portion of the database used with the ticket processing system involves driver data, ticket data, officer data, and court data. Driver data, officer data, and court data are used by the system. The system creates and maintains ticket data. Driver attributes include license number, name, address, date of birth, date licensed, and so on. Ticket attributes include ticket number (each is unique and preprinted on each sheet of the officer’s ticket book), location, ticket type, ticket date, ticket time, plea, trial date, verdict, fine amount, and date paid. Court and officer data include the name and address of

    Private and Public Police

    In the relationship between private and public police, private police are different. Private officers do not work for us; but they do offer their services for corporations, they basically focus on the corporation that hired them. Private police has three times more than public police does. The private police care less about the due process, civil rights, and the public safety. “Private police dwells on the protection, immediate deterrence, and commercial enforcement”. (Private Security and the Law, 2004).…

    Patrol Officers

    Patrol Officers are not assigned a case to try and solve. In most major cities police departments have enough personal to cover every aspect of a crime, however, the role of the patrol officer during investigations has increased. On page 23, in the book, under the patrol officer as an investigator, it mentions that the role of the patrol officer has been limited, however, as time continues that same role seem to increase. The role of the patrol officer has taken over some of the same responsibilities as the investigators have. Such as providing immediate assistance to victims, locates witness, and interviews both victims and witnesses. Also, the patrol officer has the authority to initiate and complete investigations of certain classifications of crime. With all of the changes to the role of the patrol officer, there have been numerous benefits that have been noticed, such as, the cases are handled expeditiously, relations within the department have improved, morale problems have decreased, and an increase in the investigator productivity because they have more time to focus on high profile cases. The benefit that really stands out to me is the fact that the investigator can really focus on his case loads, because he is not overwhelmed, which results in a benefit to the community as well as the entire department. The last thing a police department wants to do is give enough time for the same crime to happen again, causing the community to really question if the police can protect them. With crimes being solved a quick basis, it sends a message, if you want to do the crime, you will get caught and put in jail.…

    In this paper I am going to identify and define the US government and policing organizations throughout the US and how they both impact of this relationship on the American Society as a whole. The government of the United States is the national government of the constitutional republic of fifty states that is the United States of America. This government comprises three distinct branches of government: a legislative, an executive and a judiciary. These branches and their various powers are delineated in the U.S. Constitution; the powers are specified in greater detail in laws enacted by Congress. Self-policing, a form of self-regulation, is the process whereby an organization is asked, or volunteers, to monitor its own adherence to legal, ethical, or safety standards, rather than have an outside, independent agency such as a governmental entity monitor and enforce those standards.…

    Policing Then And Now

    The history of policing can be traced back a couple of thousand years, when there were no rules, a lot of conflict and no specific structure on what is right or wrong. Some of the laws that were enforced were done so in the name of religion or politics; the outcomes of some of those punishments were cruel and callous. Before policing was established, your everyday citizens took the law into their own hands (Grant and Terry, 2017). Policing back then was done by your community and if they felt you were guilty, you were punished. Eventually, America began to establish its own policing system, modeling after the English.…

    Police and the Law of Rule is a key component of the Fourth Amendment which controls law enforcement officials. The Fourth Amendment contains two parts: the reasonableness clause and the warrants clause. Each clause is independent because a search can be reasonable without a warrant, but if a warrant is required, certain steps must be taken. There are 3 requirements that must be met before a warrant can be secured. There are 6 general rules for serving warrants .Police and the Rule of Law captures the nuances of 7 types of warrantless searches and arrest.…

    Police Responsiveness

    • 616 Words
    • 3 Pages

    In this article, Richard J. Lundman and Robert L. Kaufman explore the racial discrimination that white officers possess when interacting with individuals of color. The authors present a study, arguing that African-Americans and other individuals of color are more likely to be stopped and pulled over by law enforcement in comparison to their white counterparts. Furthermore, the authors use statistical data and personal accounts from those individuals involved in police encounters to examine how police force harass individuals of color with little to any legitimate reason. Through surveys from individuals of color and logistic research, the author attempts to discover whether or not “Driving While Black” is a myth or an actual phenomenon. From the results discovered, the author concluded that police nationally make traffic stops more frequently of African-American male drivers and that African-American males and Hispanic individuals are less likely to report that law enforcement act justly during the traffic stop encounters. The author’s argument relates to my analytical essay entitled NWA: Disregard Tha Po-lice!, as it demonstrates the racialized motives that many police officers possess when interacting with individuals of color. In my essay, I argue that Anna Deavere Smith’s Twilight: Los Angeles 1992 critiques America’s aggressive and racially-motivated police force. This scholarly article provides statistical data, illustrating how the police force is more likely to stop a person of color in comparison to a white individual. In addition, the evidence found within this research exemplifies how many of these officers had little to any legitimate reason for stopping these individuals of color. These two pieces of literature relatively coincide as the display…
