Management for Curbing Police Bruta
From the inception of the police
forces in jurisdictions all around
the world till present climes, there
have been some downsides to
policing and law enforcement.
There have been cases of police
brutality manifesting in varying
forms, including Officer involved
shooting , harassment, violation of
human rights, killings, trigger
happiness and a lot more.
With issues like these - especially if
they are on the rise - policing may
become difficult as the masses
become increasingly uncooperative,
seeing law enforcement personnel
as the enemy they should avoid.
While these negative occurrences
may be inevitable, they can be
curbed, and police departments
should take measures to ensure that
police brutality and its consequences
be eradicated or reduced to the
barest minimum.
Actions should be met with strict
consequences One way to deter erring
officers from perpetuating police brutality
is by setting in place strict measures such
that wrong actions should be met with
proportional repercussions for the police
officers.
Increased years in prison for felonies,
reduction in salaries to be used as
compensation for victims of brutality,
recall from service, and others are a
few deterrents to ensure law
enforcement agents desist from police
brutality.
Demilitarize police
departments The level of force
allowed by military agencies
should be distinct from that
allowed by police
departments.
Police officers should also be
denied military-like gear and
armory, especially when
dealing with civilians or on
regular police duties like patrol
rounds.
Enhance police accountability
There should be radical policy
changes in policing to hold
police departments and officers
accountable for brutality.
Complaints of police brutality should
not be handled internally by the
departments but by external
authorities to ensure justice is served
and there is minimal corruption in the
processes involved in addressing
such complaints.
