Policing Matters
Jerry Ratcliffe on embracing evidence-based practices in law enforcement

Policing Matters

Play Episode Listen Later Mar 6, 2024 32:52


The concept of evidence-based policing has increasingly become a focal point in discussions about law enforcement reform and innovation. At its core, evidence-based policing seeks to bridge the gap between scientific research and policing strategies, utilizing the best available evidence to inform, challenge and ultimately enhance the decisions, policies and practices within the law enforcement community. This approach not only aims to improve the effectiveness of policing methods but also strives to foster a greater degree of accountability and transparency within the field. By grounding decisions in empirical evidence, the law enforcement community can more confidently address complex challenges, ranging from crime prevention to community relations, in an increasingly data-driven world. In this episode of the Policing Matters podcast, host Jim Dudley sits down with Dr. Jerry Ratcliffe, a leading figure in the realm of evidence-based policing. With a career that began in the UK before transitioning to an academic role at Temple University, Ratcliffe brings a unique blend of practical experience and scholarly insight to the conversation. The author of "Reducing Crime: A Companion for Police Leaders" and "Evidence-Based Policing: The Basics," and host of the Reducing Crime podcast, Ratcliffe's perspectives shed light on the critical role of evidence-based practices in shaping the future of law enforcement, advocating for a policing model that is not only responsive but also anticipatory, driven by data and committed to continuous improvement.

Today on Midday, a conversation with two prominent public officials about the Child Interrogation Law. In 2022, the Maryland General Assembly passed a law intended to protect children from coercive tactics and pressure from police and prosecutors during questioning about crimes.  The Child Interrogation Protection Act was vetoed by then Governor Larry Hogan. The legislature overrode that veto, and the law went into effect in October of 2022.  The law says that children have an unwaivable right to counsel before being questioned, and that parents must be notified once a minor is taken into custody. There is an exception that allows police to ask children limited questions before contacting parents if there is an immediate threat to public safety. Police and States' Attorneys from several jurisdictions have complained that the law ties the hands of police, and that it may lead to a lack of accountability for young people who commit crimes. Midday begins with State Senator Jill Carter, who represents district 41 in Baltimore City. She was the lead sponsor of the bill. On the second half of the show, we hear from Baltimore City State's Attorney Ivan Bates, who opposes the law.Email us at midday@wypr.org, tweet us: @MiddayWYPR, or call us at 410-662-8780.

Jennifer Doleac studies the economics of crime and discrimination. In July 2023, Jenn will join Arnold Ventures as the Executive Vice President of Criminal Justice. We chat about trends and causes of crime. How guns, drugs and policing interact with crime trends. …there was this huge increase in violent crime in particular in the late early eighties, early nineties. And suddenly violent crime started falling dramatically in the mid-1990s. We still aren't entirely sure why that is the case, this big mystery in the economics of crime world. But we do know that basically crime has been falling since then until very recently. So during the pandemic and since the pandemic, we've seen this big uptick in homicide and shootings, at least in the US. Again, we're not entirely sure why that change. It's kind of like trying to describe what's going on in the stock market. There are lots of sort of little blips and everything, and you can have big picture understanding of the economy and what drives growth, but not be able to predict fluctuations in the stock market. So it's similar with crime rates But overall, we're still in a place where homicide rates and violent crime rates are much lower than they were in the early to mid-nineties. So overall things have gotten much safer, especially in our big cities; we're much safer. But of course, as you said, there's a lot of variation place to place; particular neighborhoods, particular communities, they're the brunt of a lot of violent crime that is still going on. So it's a major public safety or major public problem and concern for policymakers in particular places and that has become more of a focus in recent years as homicides and shootings have gone up, which of course we're not used to after this big decline for decades... We talk about what we know of policies that work on reducing crime, and how challenging the recent uptick in crime statistics is to ideas on reforming criminal justice. We discuss alternatives to jail, and what type of interventions can work on crime, such as sentencing for misdemeanors, and access to healthcare.  Jenn explains why the “broken window” theory of crime has not really held up. The mixed studies on body cameras and how deterrents (like DNA databases and CCTV) seem to work. Jenn discusses her work suggesting some policies have had unintended consequences related to “ban the box” (where employers are not allowed to know of former convictions on initial job application), and related to her paper on the Moral Hazard of Lifesaving Innovations: Naloxone Access and Opioid Abuse (which has proved controversial in some quarters). We play overrated/underrated on: Texas, diversity and universal basic income. We end on Jenn's current projects and life advice. Transcript and video are here: https://www.thendobetter.com/arts/2023/5/8/jennifer-doleac-crime-policing-policy-podcast Jenn also hosts her own podcast:   Probable Causation, a podcast about law, economics, and crime.

Yesterday, the Government announced that it's going to do what governments do best – putting ambulances at the bottom of cliffs. The latest one is a $600 million ambulance at the bottom of the crime cliff. More money for more police officers. More money to crack down on gangs. More money to keep an eye on gun ownership. Governments do this because they think it's what we want. And, in some respects, it is because it's fair to say that doing something is better than doing nothing – especially when it comes to crime. But, as I say, when it comes down to it – it's pretty much nothing more than another ambulance at the bottom of another cliff. Now before the Government made this big announcement yesterday, I'd seen two reports about kids committing crimes here in Canterbury. The first was about groups of kids – some of them as young as 10 – stealing cars and driving around Christchurch and bragging about it all on social media. The second report was about a mum wanting the police to take action against a bunch of 11- and 13-year-olds who took to her 13-year-old son in an unprovoked attack in broad daylight at a Christchurch park. He was riding his scooter and they just pushed him off it and started kicking and punching him in the head while he was on the ground. He was taken to hospital with a concussion and he's still recovering – physically and emotionally. He can't understand why it happened and he's scared to go out now. This happened about a fortnight ago and, according to the report I read at the weekend, the police have spoken to the kids who did it but that's about it. And so, this mother feels she and her son have been let down by the system. She wants them punished. The problem is, though, that by the time a 10, 11, 12 or 13-year-old is out stealing cars and attacking kids in the park, they've reached a point where their respect for authority (let alone respect for others) has gone by the wayside. And even if the police did take some action against these kids involved in the attack at the park, chances are they wouldn't give a stuff because the rot has already set in. When I think back to when I was 11 or 12, I would've been terrified of getting into trouble with the cops. That doesn't seem to be the case these days, does it?  And the Government can throw as many millions of dollars as it likes at training up more police, cracking down on gangs (whatever that means) and setting up a gun register – all of that stuff – but it'll do nothing towards getting to the nub of the problem. Which, as far as I'm concerned, is that so many of these kids are victims too. Now, before you start thinking I'm some sort of criminal sympathiser, I'm not. When our place was broken into years ago, I wanted to throttle the creep that did it. But I also saw another side of things a couple of years ago when I visited Oranga Tamariki's youth justice facility here in Christchurch. I went there with a journalist who was interviewing one of the kids locked up there. He was a big guy, a real tough dude, intimidating as. As most of the kids there were. It was pretty feral, to be honest. But when this big, angry, intimidating guy sat down and started talking to the reporter – I tell you what – it was heartbreaking. This guy was so emotionally damaged. His arms were crossed the whole time, eye contact was sporadic and when the reporter asked him one question in particular – the few words he said, said it all. She asked him how often his family visited him. And he said: “They've never visited”. They've never visited. And at that moment, while I had no sympathy for him as a criminal, I had a truckload of sympathy for him as a person. Which is not how I was expecting to feel when I went there that day. And he is why I'm convinced that the Government can do whatever it wants and put as many ambulances at the bottom of the cliff as it likes, but if it continues to let these kids down before they get involved in crime – not much...

It's a major problem in Australia and worldwide: our prison systems are overloaded and there's no end in sight. Governments here and overseas are laser-focused on reducing recidivism as one way of addressing this issue – but as ANU Criminologist Associate Professor Jason Payne suggests, that's likely not the answer. In fact, we have policies and programs that are potentially counter-productive to the goal of making our community safer. In this episode, we explore why it's so difficult to prevent crime, the relationship between who we're sending to prison and what the optimal recidivism rate should probably be, and where governments should be making a greater investment. ... Associate Professor Jason Payne is a Senior Lecturer in Criminology at the Australian National University (ANU). He holds a Bachelor in Social Science (Criminology), a Graduate Diploma in Languages (Japanese), a Master of Public Policy (Policy Analysis) and PhD in Criminology. Jason specialises in quantitative criminological methods, developmental and life-course criminology and drugs and crime.

With what many call the “revolving door” at the jail comes majority support from the Humboldt County Board of Supervisors for an initiative called the “Reducing Crime and Keeping California Safe Act.” “Serial property theft would mean a year in jail rather than probation -- that’s a big one,” said Lost Coast Outpost reporter Ryan Burns. The measure which is still in the signature gathering phase aims to make serial theft a felony, reduce early release numbers for violent prisoners, increase penalties for parole violations, and allow DNA collection in more cases among other things. It sounds great on paper if you’re not a criminal. In an unexpected turn of events at a ‘Supervisors meeting last week retiring Chief Probation Officer Bill Damiano broke with many of his law enforcement peers as a skeptic of the initiative saying it could bog down already overcrowded jails and take money away from rehabbing the 95 percent of inmates that will inevitably be released. That the good the initiative does can be achieved in other ways. In the program, Lost Coast Outpost reporter Ryan Burns is interviewed about his coverage on the meeting and the nuances of the perspectives shared. The interview begins at 11:42.

As the City of St Louis' website explains, "Judge Edwards earned an undergraduate degree in 1978 and a law degree in 1982 from St. Louis University. He rose through private and public legal positions to the legal staff of Southwestern Bell Telephone Company in 1990. From there he was appointed to the St. Louis Circuit Court. He was the Administrative Judge of the Family Court and Chief Juvenile Court Judge from 2007 to 2012." Edwards was appointed as Public Safety Director by Mayor Krewson in the fall of 2017. Here's a glance at how the conversation went: Chapter 1. "It's what you do for others that matters most." How Edwards came to be a judge appointed to the distinguished role of Public Safety Director. (0:00-8:15) Chapter 2.  Judge Edwards says he has "High expectations... for all of the 3600 people that work for [him]..." and they're not the only ones; Judge Edwards has earned respect from police and "crooks" alike. (8:15-11:30) Chapter 3. "Our City is basically safe." While this may be the case, Judge Edwards understands that we "have to be smarter about how we utilize our [police] officers," if we want citizens to feel safe. (11:30-19:15) Chapter 4. But 205 murders last year! The public must be a part of public safety and this will require courage from citizens. (19:15-24:15) Chapter 5.  Edwards envisions "A community where your grandkids can walk to the corner store without the fear of being hurt." When it comes to better crime fighting, Edwards says, "It is my job to root out the bad police officers, but I also need help from the police officers on the inside." Similarly, he needs the support of the community to keep criminals off the streets. (24:15-29:00) Chapter 6. "We're not going to incarcerate our way out of crime" in our communities. Plus a surprising reality-check looking at white-on-white vs black-on-black crimes. (29:00-34:30) Chapter 7. Dating back to the Dred Scott trial held here, the City of St Louis has been on the cutting edge of changing America and Edwards sees us as continuing to lead when it come to police relations as well. At the end of the day, "Reducing Crime is [Edwards'] number one goal..." and it's what he knows best.

The Broken Windows Theory

Community Signal

“If a window in a building is broken and is left unrepaired, all the rest of the windows will soon be broken.” So says the broken windows theory, introduced by George L. Kelling and James Q. Wilson in 1982, and widely adopted in law enforcement circles. Though the theory was created with crime in mind, it has been adopted by many industries and vocations, including online community. I have seen it come up numerous times in our industry and, in talking with other veterans of the space, we’ve been applying it for quite a while. Broken windows policing has plenty of critics and defenders. Depending on who you talk to, it has either contributed to the reduction crime or served as an enabler of oppressive policing (or both). Dr. Kelling argues that zealotry and poor implementation are the problem, and that leniency and discretion, both vital to good community policing, have been lost in the shuffle. He boils the theory down to the “simple idea of small things matter.” Plus: What he would change about the original 1982 introduction of broken windows How discretion and leniency factor into the application of laws The misapplication of social science and theories Big Quotes “As we moved policing into cars, we changed the very nature of American policing without realizing it. Up until then, police on the beat were there to prevent crime. They were preventive officers. Once we put police in cars, the mission changed from policing to law enforcement, and that is responding after something happens. Even police doing policing, foot patrol and other kinds of interactions with the community are, at times, going to do law enforcement, but law enforcement is something that police ought to be doing just on occasion, rather than characterizing their entire role.” -@gkelling “[When people say,] ‘We’re going to take police out of cars and, tomorrow, they’re going to do broken windows,’ that doesn’t take into account the whole negotiation process about what are the standards for this community. This is a discretionary issue, it doesn’t matter what the neighborhood is, you’re going to have different standards of behavior that people are comfortable with. Some neighborhoods are very comfortable with high levels of disorder.” -@gkelling “Even when behavior isn’t illegal but it’s bothersome in the community, it seems to me an officer can play a mediating role and say, ‘Hey, come on. Knock it off. You know that you’re annoying these people. That’s not necessary.’ Part of it is, what we lost touch with is the ancient Anglo-Saxon tradition of persuading people to behave. From the very beginning, if you look at Sir Robert Peel’s principles, the whole idea was to persuade people to behave, rather than necessarily confronting them or arresting them.” -@gkelling “There comes a point where you cut people short. Enough is enough, you have to stop here. Leniency is a disservice to this person as well as a disservice to the community. On the other hand, when we’re talking about minor offenders, if we start giving citations or making arrests or giving traffic tickets, just for the purpose of statistics or [for] quotas in police departments. That, it seems to me, gets away from the idea of broken windows, almost totally, because it takes away the idea of discretion. You’re arresting or taking other actions, not because you think it’s the best thing to do, but that it’s considered to be a bureaucratic good. One has to be very careful with that.” -@gkelling “Just think if your accountability structure [in your online community] was such that you’re rewarded for the number of people that you kicked off. In some respects, that’s happened in areas of policing. Arrest has become a sign of productivity. Well, maybe at times, it is. Maybe at other times, it means just the opposite; that a lot of inappropriate authority is being used.” -@gkelling “The ultimate measure [of successful policing] is the lack of crime and the support of the community. Those are the ultimate measures. Measuring those is very, very hard; very, very difficult. When we enshrine arrest as a sign of an officer’s productivity, rather than ‘Did the officers solve problems?,’ that means we haven’t found effective methods yet to [measure] department wide measures of solving problems as against just law enforcement. I don’t want to back away from law enforcement as a means of solving problems because, at times, you use it, but it seems to me there are myriad of other ways to solve problems.” -@gkelling “Zero tolerance implies a zealotry that I think ought not to characterize policing. It denies discretion.” -@gkelling About George L. Kelling George L. Kelling is a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute, a professor in the School of Criminal Justice at Rutgers University and a fellow at the Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University. Kelling has practiced social work as a child care worker and as a probation officer and has administered residential care programs for aggressive and disturbed youth. In 1972, he began work at the Police Foundation and conducted several large-scale experiments in policing—notably, the Kansas City Preventive Patrol Experiment and the Newark Foot Patrol Experiment. The latter was the source of his contribution, with James Q. Wilson, to his most familiar essay in The Atlantic, “Broken Windows.” During the late 1980s, Kelling developed the order-maintenance policies in the New York City subway that ultimately led to radical crime reductions. Later, he consulted with the New York City Police Department in dealing with, among others, “squeegee men.” Kelling is coauthor, with his wife, Catherine M. Coles, of “Fixing Broken Windows: Restoring Order and Reducing Crime in Our Communities” (1998). He holds a B.A. from St. Olaf College, an M.S.W. from the University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee and a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin at Madison.

Join us on Monday, April 27, 2015 at 3:00 p.m. for a very special interview with the retiring Chief of the Tampa Police Department.    Jane Castor’s decisive leadership is evident in all aspects of her 31 year career. She was elected the first female president of a police academy class and 26 years later, she became the first woman to lead the Tampa Police Department.Chief Castor has redefined community policing in her hometown and driven down the crime rate with her innovative approach to fighting crime. Over the course of her career, Chief Jane Castor built a reputation for working side by side with residents, community leaders, business owners and neighboring law enforcement agencies to reduce crime and improve the quality of life in Tampa. Those community partnerships are the foundation of TPD’s dynamic crime reduction strategy, “Focus on Four.” Since its induction in 2003, the plan has reduced violent and property crime by 70%.     Jane’s strong leadership style is balanced with her efforts to help Tampa’s most disadvantaged children.She recently opened the doors of a multi-million dollar gymnasium for the Police Athletic League. The new facility is now serving more than 300 at-risk children. The department also opened a brand new safe haven for children called the RICH House. It’s the second of its kind offering a safe environment for children to thrive and for parents to connect with social services. Chief Castor’s commitment to at-risk kids is exemplified in her new Young Adult Police Academy. It targets kids on the verge of becoming involved in crime. Join us as we say farewell to Chief Jane Castor and commend her for serving the City of Tampa and it's diverse communities with distinction.
