Terry Mangan's Position Of Chief Of The Spokane Police Department

Chief Mangan, compared to Chief Fortier was an outsider, both devoted their two years to build the foundation of support, in the community and the police department. Fortier apparently began to engage a lot of the members of the police department in planning the changes needed to become made. Perhaps Mangan efforts

Furthermore, Mangan told Spokane's citizens that they have a good police department, although the department has some severe restrictions regarding how many people they have working in the office. Mangan deliberated his concerns with the citizens that they needed to build the police headquarters up and he needs the citizens to become volunteers. The turnaround year for the police division was within Mangan’s second year when he turned his attention to making changes about the sector itself. While, Mangan was still open about his goals for the Spokane Community and willing to adopt a more community-based, proactive approach to policing, he needed to transmit his mission to all the levels of the organization.

There are four main executive styles that police executives employ in the execution of their roles. They include the administrator, the top cop, the politician, and the statesman. All these executive styles are dependent upon the particular external and internal roles and their time allocation for these responsibilities. In the two cases studies, both the new chief executives employ different executive styles in their attempts to reform their police departments. Captain Ed Davis employs the statesman style in running the Lowell Police Department (LPD) while Chief Ken Fortier uses the administrator style in his governance of the Riverside Police Department (RPD) which bear certain similarities and differences.

Before becoming an administrator in this division, he was an officer in each of those departments. I started this interview by asking what kind of training someone would need to be in his position. Pfannenstiel told me about how he got there. First, he

Moskos, a harvard trained sociologist describes what is was like to work as a police officer in Baltimore’s Eastern district. As a young new police officer, Moskos was placed in the Eastern district, which is a very high crime area, one of the most dangerous areas in the United States. Moskos contends that when officers are fresh out of the academy, they are usually placed in high crime districts. Since these areas are considered to be the least desired to work. So in a sense the ghetto becomes a real life training area.

Chief Davis made every effort to improve the police department in a way that would also improve the relationship between the police and the policed. Chief Davis used his position to bring the community together and when the community began to become too controlling of the agenda, Davis seized an opportunity to further draw the community together while also gaining better control of the agenda going forward. Chief Davis showed internal leadership when he

“Several officers told us that concern about civilian complaints resulted in avoidance of situations likely to generate complaints. As one officer put it, “A lot of cops are scared to do their jobs.” This has resulted, these officers believed, in officers being less willing to get involved in enforcement actions, especially quality-of-life offenses or stop-and-frisk situations, which officers feel are likely to lead to complaints of abuse” (Robert C. Davis, 9). Due to the rate of crimes there at that time, the police were scared to risk their lives and that the civilians had some kind of dislike towards the police and that made the police uncomfortable with the civilians. But because of the old policy policy, it was said that they paired a younger man with an attitude to an experience officer.

Stoughton, S. (2015). Law Enforcement’s “WARRIOR” Problem Harvard Law Review Association. In this non-fiction article printed inside Harvard Law Review forum the author, assistant professor of Law at the University of South Carolina and prior law enforcement officer Seth Stoughton presents the debate of law enforcement possessing a “Warrior Mindset” vs. “Guardian Mindset”.

While not on a scale anywhere near the events ASAC Kowenhover and Chief Belmar were in charge of, the community I police has been in a crisis of its own. In recent years the precinct I oversee has been subjected to brutal gang violence. There have been seventeen gang related homicides, many of the victims, teenagers, have resulted in federal prosecutions. Weekly meetings with members of the FBI Gang Task Force, HSI and my agency have helped develop trust and eased coordination with the continuing investigations. Each agency has a role and cooperates fully with the other agencies.

“Only about one-third of a patrol officer’s activities are devoted to criminal law enforcement” (Walker & Katz, 2013, p. 4). Many other areas of work that the law enforcement officer does consist of social work, maintaining public safety, and solving many problems of the community. Most police officers would like to know that they have a warrior mentality about them. This is because “When officers find themselves in a dangerous situation, they must have the mental mettle to never give up, fight on, and prevail against all odds” (Brocklin, 2015).

In this essay, I will be explaining how the commission plan, non-partisanship at large elections, city manager plan, and stronger mayors worked together to destroy the power of the urban bosses, along with who opposed and supported this reform. These all worked together to destroy urban bosses power by the creation of progressivism, and giving the people the right to choose their candidates. First let’s talk about how the commission plan, which was developed in Galveston, Texas in 1901, worked against urban bosses. The commission plan, which was originally known as the Galveston plan, removed the use of urban bosses paying politician 's way into office. These commissioners were chosen for specific aspects aspects of municipal affairs, for example: public works, finance, or public safety.

In his article “Opinion: Proposed police reforms come from all corners, cover broad range”, Ken Armstrong ulitizes rhetoric techniques of ethos and pathos to convey in the necessity of heighted police reform across its regulations, among America. Proposals, express the necessity for inevitable change among the regulation of the national police department, “have come from scholars...and the police themselves”, those who have experienced the flaws that derive from the lack of organization among the police force in America, as they live their daily lives (Armstrong, 2016, paragraph 3). This sense of credibility that Armstrong conveys that fueled his ideas of police reform among American society, emphasizes his use of ethos to portray the importance

In the beginning of Moskos’ book, he reminisces over joining the police force in order to write about the experiences involved with being an officer. At first, the other officers did not accept him because they feared the intentions of his book. Their fear was that the book would bash and exploit the police force. The other officers would carefully watch their conversations around Moskos.
