QUESTION:
From the options listed, which one do you think is the most important in terms of recruitment and police practice:
- Higher educational requirements
- Increased diversity (minorities, women, etc.)
- Expanded background checks with a greater emphasis on psychological screening
JESUS RESPONSE: Recruitment should be looking more into expanding background checks with a greater emphasis on psychological screening. Anybody could get a degree if they applied themselves but not everyone has good mental health. Law enforcement officers are trusted to enforce the law but they are also trusted that they won't abuse their authority. " Generally, departments place emphasis on the background investigation because an intensive background investigation can help to ensure agencies recruit only the most qualified individuals and also can indicate an applicant's competency, motivation, and personal ethics. " David Decico (December 2000). You do need education so you know know the ins and outs of your craft and yes an increased diversity is also good so that minorities can relate to the victims more. However without a good mental health the policeman would either burn out fast or would make a costly error that would bring bad publicity to that precinct. How are the policeman supposed to protect and serve their communities and when they can't even protect and serve themselves.
