Though policing is still experiencing much of the same political and budgetary constraints it's had in the past, policing has evolved and become more professional through time. It has also reorganized and reformed to address issues of the new millennium. For example, CompStat programs reengineered police management by using sophisticated computer maps and crime statistics to facilitate timely and targeted responses to crime problems. This program also promotes accountability by holding commanders responsible for any increases in crime and requiring them to present innovative solutions to address their precincts' crime problems.
This scenario focuses on the evolution of policing practices to combat crime.
Safetown is a densely populated, urban city with a large police department. Although the agency has always had a difficult relationship with the community, the recent shooting death of a young boy has greatly increased the level of tension between citizens and the police department. A community meeting has been scheduled with the police chief and the mayor to brainstorm solutions to prevent such incidents in the future. This scenario involves the use of CompStat to reduce crime.
