The Use Of Nonlethal Force By Police
[ send me this essay ]
4 pages in length. The extent to which excessive force is inherent to the fundamental structure of any law enforcement agency is both grand and far-reaching; that offenders erect myriad barriers for police officers to straddle in the attempt to apprehend speaks to the undeniable correlation between force and capture. However, this is not to say police enjoy roughing up perpetrators but rather illustrates the intrinsic need to do so by virtue of the confrontational nature of law enforcement. To this end, a number of viable alternatives to excessive - and even lethal - force have proven effective in both the apprehending of offenders and the mitigation of physical injury. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

The Westies/Organized Crime Theory
[ send me this essay ]
A 6 page research paper that investigates how the career of criminal Mickey Spillane of the Westies mob fits with criminological theory. "The Westies" is a term used to indicate an organized crime gang, which was made up of predominantly Irish Americans, and operated out of an area on Manhattan's West Side known as "Hell's Kitchen." One of the principle leaders of this group was Michael "Mickey" Spillane (no relation to the crime-novel author of the same name). The description of Spillane given by T.J. English in his text on this gang, The Westies, perfectly illustrates the criminological theories that have been applied to organized crime, as discussed by Winfree and Abadinsky in their text Understanding Crime. No additional sources cited.
